As for combat, I think the current system is good, but it can be a little frustrating at times.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

It has a steep learning curve - it's almost like a graduate level course after coming from Civilization, but I deeply enjoy its novel systems in the 4x genre.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Along with the DLC which add new civilizations and gameplay updates the game is also constantly getting free updates which improve things like graphics and reworking systems to make the game better like when they changed cities to no longer require a garrison to appoint a governor which I think was a great change.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Music selection and sound design need to be complemented - everything fits very well.
