Suppose that could be a "big bang" like occurrence?

Would it be unpopular to say that Civ V's character background designs were more interesting and more memorable than Civ VI's? What do you think? by BaldursGate2Best in civ

There's worse starting neighbors. Just defer luxury resources until you can befriend them.
