When looked at in totality, you can see the fingerprints of the change in culture of the designers. The men that created Civ I were unapologetically part of the Faustian Western tradition. Civ 6 was created by men who completely disconnected from that tradition.

@theRazbuten I will start with Normal, mostly expecting the game to be designed around that difficulty. Depending on the type of game and replays I might very well increase it to maximum very fast though!
@SilentSnerk@BadMedicalTakes I think they're trying to be weirdly rules-lawyer about it, saying that if the body creates a healthy cell which later becomes cancerous, then the body didn't actually create the cancer cell.
@BadMedicalTakes ...so... What do they think a person's cells are, if not a part of their body? I'm not sure I follow. Do they think that somehow a cell makes another cell that isn't a part of the body and isn't cancer either (a secret third thing) and then the cell becomes cancer later?

Hi @duolingo, I took your 2 weeks free Super subscription, and forgot to cancel it before the end. I am now stuck with a massive bill for a year-long subscription, for a product I don't intend on using, essentially on accident. Is there a way of getting a refund?
