Mostly depends who you're playing with.

Why would I want to play online? That would mean having to play against other people. Ew.

That's the only proper way to enjoy the game, imho...
Playing against bots is funny maybe three or four games. After that; what's the point ?

You can do a hotseat game.

That's fine for you, and it's nice that we have those options in Civ VI.

But I'm an introvert. After a long day at work, the last thing I want is more interaction with people. Especially people I don't know personally, in a game that takes hours -if not days - to finish.

By the way, I love how the game is set up so that I can play "multiplayer" completely solo.

The Beauty of Civ VI is that there are many ways to play and enjoy Civ VI.

My current favorite is play with a few friends on an Enormous map and fill out the remaining Civilization slots with bots on Immortal Difficulty.

It is much easier than trying to assemble players for a game online on the fly and you play with people you know and have similar interests in the game. It is one way that I use to stay in touch with other on line gamers.

And, we play on Marthon Speed with the draws for the players coming from pool of Civs that are agreed upon.

Everything is flexible and leads to many sessions of very enjoyable online gaming. I have reconnected with a number of ole online friends this way.

Good Luck and Good Gaming.

When you play online, you play simultaneus turns, youn never wait (except during the lobby before the game begins).

We're in the middle on the 9th Civilization VI World Cup at this time. Maybe watch some games to see what high level online play looks like. I find it very stimulating ! (Well, you need to have free tome XD games are a bit long)

Evrach is correct in that you really do not know what you are missing by only playing SinglePlayer Civ VI without looking at what MultiPlayer (in all its forms) offers. Expand your horizons and you will be surprised at what you are missing.

But if solo play is the only way you can play, play what you want but realize that there is so much more to experience with MultiPlayer.

The game works remarkably well however you choose to configure the set up and rules set.

Good Gaming.
