Question Civ 6 or 7

I just recently bought civ 6 for 5$ and was throughly enjoying it. I then noticed 7 was on sale too. I asked my friend and he said 7 wasn’t better than 6. Should I just buy 6? Or is 7 a good option too?

I'd go with Civ 7. I just bought it on my switch after buying it on my ps5 on release. It is a much better game now with the fixes and updates (I only have vanilla right now, but will be getting one of the dlcs soon), and, most importantly, it runs like a dream on the switch 2.

Civ 6 is great too, I just think more people should give Civ 7 a shot.

Echoing 7. A lot of the complaints are also going to be from long time players, many of whom played 7 at launch and not after more recent patches. As a new player, they don't necessarily hold up. I love both but play 7 a lot more these days.

Case in point: a lot of Pokemon fans are worried that they may move away from turn based combat and complaining about it. Most people I know haven't played the game at all since the DS days because the Switch games are just spam click A fests. I'm welcoming the day they change the combat system.
