1. How are iroquois broken, I can find nothing on the subject / they used to be one of my favorites and I don't recall this

2. Civ 6 was what it took to finally convince me that civ 5 is a bad game, play civ 6

"Korea is more interesting than Japan"

I mean if your idea of interesting gameplay is being handed a free victory, sure!

BLESSINGS UPON YOU NOBLE ODA NOBUNAGA, RULER OF THE LAND WHERE THE SUN RISES - MAY YOU LONG WALK AMONG ITS FLOWERING BLOSSOMS. YOU ARE THE RULER OF JAPAN, THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN. THE JAPANESE ARE AN ISLAND PEOPLE, PROUD AND PIOUS WITH A RICH CULTURE OF ARTS AND LETTERS. YOUR CIVILIZATION STRETCHES BACK THOUSANDS OF YEARS, YEARS OF BLOODY WARFARE, EXPANSION AND ISOLATION, GREAT WEALTH AND GREAT POVERTY. IN ADDITION TO THEIR PROWESS ON THE FIELD OF BATTLE, YOUR PEOPLE ARE ALSO IMMENSELY INDUSTRIOUS, AND THEIR TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION AND MIGHTY FACTORIES ARE THE ENVY OF LESSER PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.

LEGENDARY DAIMYO, WILL YOU GRAB THE REINS OF DESTINY? WILL YOU BRING YOUR FAMILY AND PEOPLE HONOR AND GLORY? WILL YOU ONCE AGAIN PICK UP THE SWORD AND SHIELD AND MARCH TO TRIUMPH? CAN YOU BUILD A CIVILIZATION THAT WILL STAND THE TEST OF TIME?

I wanted to get that in before you started like as if that was the civ intro but then you played like half a game before I could

I hate how formulaic civ v gameplay is

You always just follow a script
