Gonna go ahead and rewrite my review now that I've played it some more.

Pros:
- Fantastic design, looks clean, works well, very limited bugs and the colors flow well
- Research is stable, and the addition of districs add for very interesting games compared to Civ V
- Barbarians are still annoying, lol
- Multiplayer is much faster now, taking only 10~ hours per game compared to Civ V, which was around 40~
- Leaders seem well thought out, with a good variety witth the base game
- Updates seem to be very good and are adding in a good amount of content and options for free, happen about once every few months

Cons:
- ~~No teams in Multiplayer. This was a key feature in Civ V, very upset it isn't here yet.~~ (Added in latest patch)
- AI is very war hungry, seems to want to start a war or hate you for anything
- DLC is small, and only has one civ per pack, pretty big rip off for the current price

Overall, I suggest the game for anyone who knows and loves CIV. It's a great time waster, and well worth a sale price, not sure if its right at the $60 price point as of now. Hopefully they release teams and modding soon to make the game even better, but as of now, its the most solid launch CIV released to date.
