It seems like a clear "yes" given the context. I don’t know if Civ 6 is a good investment—check out the trailers and gameplay videos for both options.

i was wondering the same thing @No - it is the only one i don't own. from various reviews, it seems like it might be worth it to wait a while. the potential is there, but the AI is pretty bad and there are quite a few bugs still.

It seems to go against the direction from version V.

Historically each Civ game includes two expansions that enhance the core experience with fresh features and mechanics. New vanilla Civ titles consistently provide significantly less content than the final version after adding both expansions. Therefore, vanilla Civ games should be evaluated against other vanilla versions rather than expanded games. For those seeking the most immersive playthrough, Civilization V: Complete stands out as the best value for new players.
