![]() ![]() Nevertheless the true principle of Civilization hasn’t changed: You start with a city and a worker to build and expand your civilization throughout the centuries. ![]() Gone are the lands filled with barbarians and coal to be mined, but hello to Alien nests and Firaxite minerals to exploit. The interface might have not changed much from Civilization V, but it’s the heavy change of scenery that becomes quite overwhelming. ![]() What will our future hold to us and what will we accomplish as a specie?īeyond Earth at first seems chaotic, especially for those used to the Sid Meier’s franchise, with its immensely color scheme and details of the alien planets we are about to settle our first colony on. Moreover, depending on your style of play, you’ll tend to pledge allegiance to one of three affinities, which will affect the quests, and influence its different bonuses throughout the game.
