The game still sucks.
Denuvo still in for windows (or proton)

I am going to have to play it a bit more after the next update, only because
I paid for the danged thing.

The civ switching thing is still stupid on stilts.

I'm waiting for it to support Fallout4 and Skyrim.

It was designed for a controller, which makes it suck with a keyboard/mouse.

The whole 3 era thing is just .... odd. (which is why I'm putting this in the BERT category)

Resource icons get greyed or rather black and white-ed when you are not in visual range.
Makes it hard finding treasure resources.

It is amusing with the cheat panel mod though. heh.
(I'm just screwing around with it, unlocking the mementos, most of which are just fluff, still)

But yes, I want it fixed so the money, troops etc I amass carry forward with me.

The civ changing.. well, tribes coalesced became nations etc, but jeebuz, make the leaders stick with
what they had. Some of it is just ludicrouse. (Ben Franklin running Russia?)

Working fine in linux though, (and NO denuvo on linux) :D

We'll just have to see.

It needs sooo much work. It really feels like an alpha right now.

I think the most egregious thing that's missing is the one more turn option.

This is Civ and you didn't even have that? Nope, it ain't ready for primetime.

(but yes, it does work in linux. That's the only reason I bought it.)

This is not the Civ we all know and love. Beyond Earth was different, and I do play it from time to time.
This civ is going into that category.

Duke Nukem Forever of the Civ franchise.

The UI needs work. Some (buncha) things are not intuitive.

No way to go to fast move/combat yet either. :(
(the slow movement does get tedious)

Yeah, I broke down and bought it. All the other stuff aside, they DID make it for linux on day 1.
I want to encourage that.

Playing on easiest setting, Antiquity age, only 1 other civ left on my continent.
(I took over Ben Franklin, someone wiped out couple others, Harriet Tubman just DoW me)

They say they fixed marathon issues, don't think so.

It IS pretty I'll give that. It is playable though (as in not crashing every turn)

It did crash first time, they did a patch yesterday and I changed a setting, no crash after that.

(first rounds of all their games are .... 'a bit rough' .... heh)

Bethesda: short form for "can take any working product and screw it up by the numbers"
