Complex and interwoven systems can be daunting, but building an empire remains incredibly rewarding
Rise and Fall extension adds a lot of content and new gameplay mechanics, some of them being better than others.
Rise and Fall adds, tweaks and expands, but it doesn't address some of the underlying issues, particularly those related to the AI. We're not quite in the new golden age yet.
Rise and Fall brings some interesting improvements to Civilization VI. The new mechanics do not stray too far from the base game, but they broaden our options, and allow us to create our own stories when playing.
