...thing I should do when I play the game? I've never gotten into Civ before so I'm new, I'd like to learn and get good, maybe Youtube tutorials?
I'll probably start with Genghis Khan, Frederick Barbarossa or Hojo Tokimune.

The first thing you should do is try playing it without using a tutorial. At least play a few maps before getting tips online yo.

I regret getting the Switch version since it's still missing the major updates, and even if you got it on sale it'll still probably be more expensive than if you'd bought the PC version if you buy the updates when they come out. It also slows to a crawl on bigger maps in late game, like it's terrible to the point I've never finished a game since I get tired of waiting for the damn thing to load more than actually playing.

Looking on the Switch board it looks like there was a patch released just 4 days ago. Have you tried playing with it?

If you happen to download the patch and try again can you tell me if things changed?

Because buying a different version of the game instead of playing one you just purchased is pretty stupid. If he finds that he likes the game after playing the Switch version for a while and would like to alleviate the problems it has by switching to the PC version, then it's reasonable advice. Until then, it's useless.

Idk about content-wise, but the biggest difference is the PC version has multiplayer. Though, idk how poorly it handles late game turns, because I had problems with those even on PC (civ 5, fwiw)

TC, I havent played Civ 6 much because frankly, just one more turn syndrome is too much for me now that Im not a college student with time to kill anymore. Also from what I played, I definitely like 5 better.

In 5, having big cities and science output was important. Tech is important so you dont fall behind your opponents. Also, even if youre not going for domination, make sure you have a reasonable standing army, to deter war/protect yourself.

I say just play it and don't worry about looking up how to play or strategies. Play on a low difficulty level and try to discover the game on your own. Try to think about of what type of win strategy you want to work towards - domination, science, culture etc...

I have heard of that saying before, lol.
I did a bit of search on wikis and I do like that Civ V has Bismarck as leader of Germany. I think he's just more interesting than Barbarossa IMO.

That's a good idea I will do that.
Maybe I'll start on the very lowest difficulty whatever that is.

Yup, it's much better to play a crappy port of the game instead. I also didn't know you were an alt of his.
