Sid Meier's Civilization VII

it's not as bad as everyone on YouTube says it is; having that said, the the user interface is horrible. it is infuriating mess trying to select your units on the map or in a stack. the combat is bad even for a 4X game. if you are trying to fight a large war the turns take for F*cking ever! to give you an idea of how much I hate this; I have hundreds of games across 6 console generations and steam and this is the second review I have written.

Ich habe bereits Civ IV, Civ V und CIV VI gespielt. Aber CIV VII ist der letzte Scheiß. Bitte verzeiht mit meine Frust. Das Spiel ist viel zu kompliziert, viel zu umständlich, nach dem Wechsel ist alles anders, man weiß nicht mehr, wo man ist. Man kann nicht mehr produzieren etc. Nur Scheiße... Rausgeschmissenes Geld. CIV VI war die beste CIV!!!

I have played Civilization more than any other game in my life, but Civ 7 was the biggest disappointment. Yes the graphics are good, but that's about it, that you have to change civs mid game entirely ruins the game, i don't know what this genre should be called but it's definately not a strategy and empire building game anymore.

日本の三世代続くルートが出来たらしいって事でプレイしたが正直微妙だった このシステムなら最低でも 三世代の素直な継承ルート 例えば古代日本（卑弥呼） → 中世・戦国日本（秀吉） → 近代日本（昭和天皇）とか 古代中国王朝系（始皇帝） → 中世中国王朝系（太宗） → 近現代中国（毛沢東）とか 古代ローマ→中世ヨーロッパ国家分岐→現代ヨーロッパ国家分岐 とか そういうのを基本的なルートを一通り用意した上で発売すべきだったと思う 現状では世代が変わって、国が変わってもなお初期指導者から変更出来ないし 素直な継承ルートはDLCまで買ってやっと追加だったり システムの完成度が低すぎる DLCまで出してこの完成度はちょっと…… 4、5、6とやったけど、どの作品より微妙だと思う

I gave it a shot, but Civ 7 just completely misses the mark. I am genuinely struggling to find even one positive thing to say about this game. I can tell you that the other complaints you have read in reviews from other players are all spot on. The era changing aspect of this game makes absolutely zero sense. I was actively about to take the capital of another empire and the era changed, which upgraded their armies and removed my army from their territory. For no other reason except that the era changed... Civ, the best turn based game series ever, borrowed a concept from Humankind but somehow managed to make it worse. This leads me to the modern era of the game. I don't even know what to say here. It's like the technology just ends with WWII era planes and weapons. No special forces soldiers or advanced infantry, no modern fighter planes and bombers. You get P-51s and B-52s and that's as far as it goes. To top it off, it's just as disappointing graphically. The map is dark, and the world just looks...dull. Civ 6 is a vastly superior game to Civ 7. Don't waste your money. Hoping that Civ 8 is a drastic improvement.

Refunded after an hour. Played a few games on Apple Arcade - it's very mid. Like, CIV6 at release feeled much better and that is saying something. Combat is dull (although a bit faster), City building is dumbed down to putting squares with citizens. And the age changes are the most weird thing I have ever had ever in CIV games - auto upgraded units? Why? You lose a good chunk of resources too. Sometimes you are forced into a CIV change because of that, which itself is weird (Russia starting as Greece in Athenes?). Wonders are dumb, victory conditions are very boring and religion is irrelevant as hell. Music and graphics are fine. But even at 50% discount it is a very tough sell, I'd wait for something like 70%

Als echt alter Hase, der die Spiele seit dem ersten Teil gespielt hat kann ich hier keine Kaufempfehlung aussprechen. Seht euch erst mal ein "Let´s Play" auf Youtube an und dann trefft eure Entscheidung.

If you wanted a new and different civ game genuinly try Humankind instead. This game is plagued with 1000 different boring mechanics that are just click button to earn special curency all just to get some random +1 yeild. So many features from older civ titles feel like they have just been striped down to clicks and all their gameplay nuance is removed No builders No strategic resourses No religious combat No map generation options No map editor and combat is like the same 3 units the whole game The rivers are cool though
