After thinking about it for weeks I think I’ve finally settled on buying it, assuming day 1 performance is good. No preorders. I’m not installing that denuvo garbage on my pc though so at least civ 7 has finally made me switch to Linux last weekend.
Denuvo is fully intact under Linux though. It’s actually even worse than under Windows or at least it used to be, because switching between different Proton versions actually counts towards the 5 machines within 24 hours limit.
This is a native Linux port I believe.
Does going gold mean anything anymore? Nearly every major game is garbage at release and needs tons of patches and fixes.
It is called “going gold” because it is the gold standard for measuring the tolerance level for embarrassment from releasing the pile of garbage a project produced. Going gold is done at exactly the point when that drops from intolerable to tolerable to the stake holders.
I generally like the Civ games but I’m definitely not a Day 1 player. I’ll probably pick this up in a heavily discounted bundle with the inevitable expansions and at least some of the DLC in a Steam sale a couple years from now.
This is the way. Civ 6 is so cheap when it goes on sale now. I bet it’s a more complete game than Civ 7 too but I might be wrong.
Why does Civ VI have In-App Purchases?
I have no idea. The DLCs you can buy from Steam or Epic (or get the bundle).
With Denuvo DRM!
…and a price tag that screams “yeah, no…I’ll wait”
Civ V will do me plenty for another couple years anyway.
Oof. That’s a nope.
Can’t wait for it to be on sale without denuvo
Deck verified too
Yo ho ho.
