"In Gathering Storm, the second expansion to Civilization VI, the world around you is more alive than ever before.

Chart a path to victory for your people by developing new advanced technologies and engineering projects and negotiating with the global community in the World Congress on critical issues.

The choices you make in the game will influence the world ecosystem and could impact the future of the entire planet. Natural disasters like floods, storms, and volcanoes can pillage or destroy your Improvements and Districts – but they may also refresh and enrich the lands after they pass."

So, Civ 5 is a game I played too much. like, currently I have 837 hours logged.

A good friend got me Civ 6 a while back but I was still on my Civ 5 kick. I finally took the plunge into this game a week or two ago (which came out in 2016!) and picked up the Gathering Storm DLC this weekend for the stream. I haven't tested any of it out yet but this is a pretty great example of a game adding eco-friendly-ish elements into it - there's climate change in here. Allegedly.

Join me as I play a game I've played a ton of times before (Civ!) with a ton of new twists that are going to terribly confuse me!
