About this episode
Dirk and David continue their discussion in part 2 of TGDRT's Civilization Series Finale! They dive into many of the systems that didn't work for them, and what they wish had been done instead. Topics include religion and trade, the problems with Civ VII's map generation, and the costs associated with stripping away flavor in favor of starker mechanics. They also talk about what's next for TGDRT, and wrap up the Civilization series. Most importantly, is David actually done with Civilization games?
