So don’t buy Civ 7, got it. Thanks!
Launchers themselves are a form of DRM anyway
At least launchers don’t fry your SSDs and tank your performance like Denuvo “allegedly” does.
Ok, doesn’t make what I said wrong
God-fucking-dammit
I’ve bought and paid for every civ game since civ3…
I even paid for civ4 twice. Boxed CD and on steam… And now you’re going to treat me like a criminal with shitty DRM??? Welp, i guess i’m not buying Civ7, Sid…
No more turns…
Interesting that they looked at Humankind and aped only its worst design decisions lol.
If you don’t choose one civilization to play through to the end I’m out.
Were there some problems with sales of the previous Civ games or something that necessitate this?
Probably just some executive being a typical 9-figure jackass.
Yeah exactly, from my understanding these are some of the most popular and best selling games around so… completely unnecessary
Sometimes I wonder why companies make decisions like this. But then I remember just how many completely braindead executives are out there.
At least it’s not denuvo anti cheat but their anti tamper is bad enough. Civ 6 is my most played game and I guess I’ll have more time to play it now after all… It’s really too bad I was very excited to try out the new features they’ve added.
You might want to try Humankind then. Sounds like Civ 7 is basically copying the ideas from it anyway
I’ve played humankind quite a bit actually. I had fun for a while but although I liked the idea at first I don’t love the leader switching system as it is implemented in humankind.
If you like the new features you can always just go ahead and play some Endless Legends, most of it is from there
Endless legend is undoubtedly a great game but I never liked the hero thing they have going on unfortunately.
Well Civ 7 will be very similar with the generals, what I didnt like personally was managing the items for the units and stuff
