Tyler grew up in Silicon Valley during the '80s and '90s, playing games like Zork and Arkanoid on early PCs. He was later captivated by Myst, SimCity, Civilization, Command & Conquer, all the shooters they call 'boomer shooters' now, and PS1 classic Bushido Blade (that's right: he had Bleem!).
With Civilization 6 about as stuffed with expansions as it can get, Firaxis is finally on the cusp of releasing the seventh numbered sequel in one of the longest running and most successful game series ever.

That and other changes will be controversial among fans of the series, but whether they turn out to be for the better or worse, I'm glad Sid Meier's gang of history nerds is still trying new things.
