Sid Meier's Civilization VII

NEVER have I been bored by a Civ game... till now. Part of it is is because everything feels dumbed down, like roads automatically & instantaneously being built. Part of it is not being able to enable/disable victory conditions or to select length of game (NO, adding 20 turns or such does not count!). Maybe in another year the patches and updates will make this into half the game that Civ 6 was, but till then if you are in the market for a Civ game just buy Civ 6 PS Over 2500 hours in Civ 6, and in Civ 7 it's bored me since about 30 hours in, W T F

I really wanted it to be good, it's not, but I wanted it to be.

There's crap. There's retarded crap, then there's Civ 7, which is gay retarded crap. Unlike the previous releases in the Civilization series of games, gameplay in 7 is confusing, and doesn't seem to lead anywhere. The world graphics are ok, but visually 'busy', if that makes any sense. I've pretty much given up even bothering with it, and wish I had my seventy dollars back. Even on sale now at 35 dollars, it's still over priced.

absolute ♥♥♥♥ game, bought this and tried to give it a fair shot 29 mins in and already dealing with a bad ui and major game breaking bugs, i would not even pirate this garbage or get paid to play this. Casualized slop, somehow has less depth than civ revolution for the 360

Atrocious, amateurish and ahistorical game. Super gamey, unrealistic and unintuitive gameplay. There is no continuity in the game: after an age transition all your technologies and civics vanish. Resources get reshuffled, your city specialists are disabled. Citizens cannot be shuffled around city tiles and are stuck like serfs for the remainder of the game where you initially placed them. Paradoxically, cities grow faster by using gold than food to grow them. Massive historical inaccuracies and made up narratives: the Ming play as a maritime trading superpower, whereas historically they were extreme isolationists and imposed a maritime ban with the rest of the world!

crashed endlessly on a very good system

Not fun. Terrain makes combat impossible (should have combat width with armies instead of non-stackable tiles), scouts commit suicide as soon as you auto explore. All the civs build the same buildings, so every civ is the same outside of artwork and a few bonuses. Crashes on the largest map in exploration era. The art is pretty cool, but the game overall is more of a rush to advance, than a fun civ building immersion.

I started playing Sid's Civ back in 1994. I've played every major release of this game and this is by far the worst game of the entire series. I don't know how anyone who ever played these games could possible design and produce this trash. If you love the Civ series, please DO NOT buy this game. It will only make you mad that they screwed it up this badly. Aside from clear graphics, its the worst computer game I've ever played.

Too many bugs to list. If you haven't bought the game yet, know you're paying $$$ for a very sloppy beta. It's embarrassing that after more than a year of updates, there are still so many problems. It truly kills the fun when a strategy I've been setting up toward for hours fails because of a bug which was reported over a year ago and still not addressed.

Can't believe i spent 200AUD on this game as a show of faith, that maybe, just maybe they'd not be scummier than paradox with this, but instead they just release content that should have been in the game over and over and keep charging more money, nearly 50 bucks just to have more Japanese stuff? What happened to DLC being actual content? Civ 5 was the best, 6 had some cool features, Civ 7 has so much dlc content (when you break it down by whats in the dlcs) it seriously makes CK3 blush
