Looks like it could be cool.

Took me a while to figure out what he meant by "tick boxes". Then I realized he was saying "tech"

Barely registered for me - Bad Batch's Omega is voiced by an actress from NZ (going with the Kiwi theme for Clones from Kamino), and they have a character called "Tech" ....

Humankind already does this.  They are just adding more ages.

Eh, Humankind switches your Civ and the Ages are always the same. Seems like your Civ will be the same here, but the ages can be different.

From what's been shown, you start with a basic bonus for your civ, but most of its traits will come from making choices throughout the game.

Which to be fair sounds like a better implementation of Humankind's idea.

We will have to see. In humankind your civilization changes based on the many choices you make during the game.  Not just what you choose as your next culture in each age.  We don't yet know whether millennia will provide the player with more or less choices than humankind.

Humankind is a very complex game, and I think part of the reason why it does not have a bigger player bass is that a lot of players seem to like the simplicity of the Civ model.

Millennia may be aiming to seem complex, but actually be quite simple so that they can increase their player base. That would probably be the smart marketing move but would be disappointing for people looking for a more complex game.

I don't play humankind as I don't find it fun.

As I recall it, you said that you wouldn't play it because you didn't like how the developer made it's games. Fair enough, but I don't think you can claim to have played Humankind enough to have made the judgement one way or the other.

I did ultimately play the demo which I believe is an acceptable way to try out if a game.

On the other hand, I've had a stray thought on whether you are invested in some way given your always vigilant defense of Humankind.

[Josephus]

I stopped playing Humankind, cause I did't like it.

CC seems to have an investment in this game, he's been touting it from even before it got released

I'm just concerned about people condemning a game without actually playing it. It is exactly good game, but you actually have to play the game and not just condemn it because you don't like the aesthetics or something that's silly like that after playing an hour or so of a demo.

[garbon]

Why are you so concerned?

[The Minsky Moment]

Humankind has it pretty rough these days.  It needs all the help it can get.

[DGuller]

People with acquired tastes tend to heavily evangelize their acquired taste.  From what I gather, if Humankind were any more of an acquired taste, no one would've acquired it.
