  It’s…aight. Not as good as VI yet.

  It hasn’t received any significant gameplay changing DLC yet, and usually Civ games don’t really come into their own until then.

  It is not and as somebody who was patient with Civ VI and ultimately loved it after it was fleshed out, I don’t think it ever will be. The “play three different civs over the coarse of each game with a leader unrelated to any of them” thing they stole from humankind is not going away so if you’re not a fan of that you’re just going to have to skip this one.

    It’s still so weird to me that they did that. AFAIK Humankind did okay, wasn’t like a massive hit or anything, but the makers of Civ seem to have decided to drop everything and chase it around for some reason.

  honestly, I don’t know. I’ve never played a civ game is didn’t get hopelessly addicted to, but I haven’t really had the money for it yet. plus it has some DRM bullshit on it, so pirating it isn’t an option (yet).

    Fair. I’m still waiting for the pack will all dlc. Civ6 burned me when later updates caused issues from game memory limits they just never fixed (or acknowledged). Keeps crashing on me once get to mid game

      Oh, is that why my game keeps crashing mid game?

        High chance of it.

        Sorry asset limit not memory limit/issue.

        Basically the dlc brought them up to the limit so killed almost all of the fun mods and causes issues on bigger maps (which are my favorite)

    As a side note, if you’re on Linux you can pirate it because the Linux version doesn’t have Denuvo on it. At least that’s what I read when I was searching for ways to not pirate things because stealing from big corporations is wrong

  It’s a civ game, so no. It’s still horrendously overrated
