Issue with 6 is that even though it has a lot of nifty features, either I'm getting smarter or the games are getting easier. And I know I'm dumb as shit.
One disappointing thing to learn is that the game has 8 difficulty levels but the AI is programmed to play the same way from the easiest to the hardest. The difficulty level only changes based on handicaps the game gives you or the AI wrt combat bonuses or science and production scaling.
For some reason as well, they programmed the AI to one ever declare war if their military strength massively dwarfs your own. Which makes some intuitive sense, except the AI is also constantly going bankrupt and disbanding their entire army and never replacement it.
So it means that the AI players will never initiate war with you passed the earlygame, making peaceful games boring and war mongering games unrealistic.

The AI in Civ 6 is dumb as shit.

You can reliably win Civ6 without even building 1 city, not even your first start-of-game one. That's how bad the AI is in that game.
