#civ vii

"Consider pairing Friedrich with Prussia in the modern age to get big combat bonuses for being anti-social!"

revisiting the old games and remembering how the SMAC expansion got kinda goofy with the factions

[druvjelly]

The reason queen Christina didn’t return for civ 7, was because if Frederick the great saw her. They wouldn’t form a gay lesbian alliance. Instead. He would see woman who likes women. He would just explode and then your computer would explode. Then a message would pop up saying “Frederick the great wasn’t gay because he loved men. But because he hated women”

How different IS Civ 7?

[teagrammy]

I saw Harriet Tubman was one of the leaders picked for Civ VII and when I scrolled down to the comments I immediately remembered why I hate white “gamer” men and had this exact reaction

[fuzzy-oooze]

wait, they're adding civ switching to civ 7? what the fuck? why? why would they do that? I hated it in Humankind and I'd hate it there too, if I pick to play as Babylon, that's because I want to play as fucking Babylon, not switch to something else partway through. If I pick china but an era passes or whatever and I have to pick a new one you better have a fuckin' genus historian on your dev team who can list every central east Asian civilization or I'll be offered to switch to stupid shit like Greece, which I'd reject out of wanting to play as what I picked as in the beginning, but something tells me that a lot of civs won't have more "advanced" counterparts (such as, say, the celts or carthage) and I'd be FORCED to change civs, but I DON'T WANT THAT, I WANT TO BE PLAYING AS WHAT I CHOOSE TO PLAY IN THE BEGINNING, THAT'S WHY I PICKED IT

"Oh but no civilization lasts forever-" yeah yeah shut you're fuckin' mouth because

1)-they're keeping the immortal leaders and having them switch civs with you so Gilgamesh is going to become British and evil

2)-what you said is just plan Dead Wrong because, well, China's stayed itself forever, Japan's stayed itself forever, India, the Congo, Aboriginal Australia, fucking Greece, I get what you mean but No one has ever went to sleep and woke up as a FUCKING MONGOL. Civilizations change due to outside influence such as foreign invasion and not just time, time plays a part, yes, but not to nearly the extent I think people think.

why can't they just have it so that you're not playing as a real historical civilization and instead you pick and swap cultural traits as time passes so that by the end you've made your own storied culture and civilization? I feel like that's such a no-brainer but no one has done that and it feels like so much of an easier and more generally appealing idea to have than civ-switiching.

The entirety of Civilization VI, including all expansions and minor dlc, is on sale right now for less than $25 USD

Get the biggest bundle, the one that says it normally costs over $200. Even in places like California that're Sales Tax Hell, there's no way you're paying more than $30 for this. If the reveal of some of Civ VII's more controversial mechanics left a bad taste in your mouth, I don't think there'll ever be a better time to grab the best modern Civ game.

Just finished my first Antiquity Age as Carthage.

Really dominated the economic front.

My reward was...well...

[chungledown-bimothy]

gwendoline christie is narrating civ vii oh my godddddd okay yeah i'm never playing this one without sound

[agrownupgeekgirl]

it has been a while since i have asked you about Civ 7!

how is it going? you still playing?

i stopped playing for a couple of months hoping that after a couple of updates the game would be improved. i will start playing again on my next day off

I could have sworn I answered this, sorry!

I took a break because my friends got me back into WoW and then now Dune Awakening, but I will always go back to Civ. I am hoping by the time I go back they will have made some of the changes that they have said they would, to bring it more in line with 6 as far as quality of life updates.

[staliaatreides]

Yeah, hard to guess which one the cosplayer went with.... 😆

[absenceofgravitas]

I love when a game lets you name stuff. The Civilization games are great for this. Yes, of course I’m going to name my French capital city Gay Paree. Of course I’m going to capture Istanbul and immediately rename it Constantinople. Am I going to choose the Crab icon for my civilization’s religion and call it Carcinization? Absolutely.

[very-uncorrect]

I am not even considering buying Civ VII until it has a sale for the price I got Civ VI at (I got all the expansions for that game for like £6)

[poorlymadesockpuppet]

do NOT tell a drunk latina that she can't name her town Gringo Town, civ vii. I do not like it.

[shadowofveils]

Racists on Twitter are really showing their whole ass about Harriet Tubman being one of the leaders in Civ VII "because she never led a nation hurr durr" when they didn't have shit to say about the other American leader being Ben fucking Franklin
