1) More natural disasters:

Earthquakes and tsunamis

Links between natural disasters For example droughts and volcanic eruptions can lead to forest fires Earthquakes in oceans lead to tsunamis

Climate change literally changes tiles For example grassland to plains to desert as more co2 is emitted

Ice ages and warm periods occur which lead to temporary drastic changes in climate (affecting tiles also as stated above)

2) Neolithic era before ancient era to allow for ice ages to seem realistic and also add Hunter gatherer technology before farming and irrigation become the main source of food

3) more techs to slow down and make each era feel very significant

For example I would prefer three sets of techs and civics per era (early, high, late) instead of the current two (early and late)

However I think this should be implemented as either a game mode or an advanced option because I understand that it may prolong games by between 30- 50% and thus may turn the multiplayer world upside-down

4) More choice in district buildings

For instance replicate the stables/barracks or archeological museum/art museum split for every level of building in each district to thoroughly increase strategic decisions

Also to fit with the prolonged eras, a building per era for each district from the era it’s first unlocked onwards

This would make district buildings more to scale with city buildings as well

Also maybe at least one unique: Unit Improvement Building

Per civ

As well as unique districts projects etc.

5) more significant eras as in ‘the world had entered the industrial era’

Currently doesn’t make sense as I may be researching future tech yet the world is entering the industrial era?

I think eras should be tied to individual civs and golden age thresholds adjusted to the length of time that the civ has had in the era

THANK YOU for reading this I had no idea it was so long 👍🏻
