I gave up on Civ after you couldn’t automate settlers anymore. I really don’t need to spend time manually connecting my cities with roads. That’s just unnecessary grinding.
That’s definitely a little better, although honestly even doing the farmland stuff with every settler per turn is a huge PITA. It’s just not what I play Civ games for. It’s always been possible to not have them automated if you don’t want them automated and not automated was the default. I don’t understand why they took that option away.
It just felt like V was a huge amount more about grinding. Sounds like that’s been somewhat rectified at least.
On one hand it allowed you the freedom to manually decide if increasing tile upkeep was worth it and therefor gave rise to new strategies, but on the other hand it’s kind of not worth it 90% of the time.
But didn’t you always have that freedom? You could always play without automating any settlers or automating some and not others. Or am I not understanding what you’re saying?

With Civ VI the traders build the roads, so you just send a trader between cities you want a road built on.
Works just about the same except the source city gets some resources

Ah sorry, I always played manually in Civ V so I kind of assumed that wasn’t the case in earlier titles I haven’t played. My bad, I was confused.
