First off, I know DLC is required to keep the game running and for Microsoft to keep supporting the game. I'm not saying we should get rid of DLC.
I am however worried that we might be heading towards the new civs being stronger overall than the civs you would get with DE. While it's not too bad on Arabia as a clown I'm certainly feeling the pressure against Poles, Bohemians and Burgundians on Arena.
Hera did a recent video where he ranked Arena civs and over half (3/5) of s-tier was DLC after DE civs (the 3 I mentioned along with Turks & Portuguese). If this trend isn't reversed and slowly starts creeping into Arabia we might have a big issue in the player base.
Curious to hear other people's thoughts on the topic.
