i could be wrong, but it seems to me this has changed somewhat. In prior Civ games, expansion was so necessary that anything that delayed your second city even a turn would cascade.

Anyway, I found it really interesting. I don't know that I think it's obvious, but I'll always move if I see a better location from my start location. Regardless of effectiveness, I hate the idea that my capital will be underpowered. The absolute worst feeling is a series of finding more optimal locations. I start in a really crappy place. I move one square to a better one but that reveals an even better spot, etc.

I figure I'll watch the start and see if they manage to make it interesting, but it may be something I get 5-10 minutes into and decide it's dull.

Does anyone have any experience running civ6 on a laptop without a dedicated graphics card? Considering buying it to play on my new laptop, but concerned it may not work well.
