Civilization 7 seems to convince the players, despite the constant river of updates. In reality, the 4x is even at most with steam.
Firaxis hoped to reverse the trend with its latest updates Civilization 7But the PC public generally remains skeptical. Despite the efforts to correct certain errors, the reception of players on Steam continues to deteriorate to the point that the game grade for the series fell to a historically low level. A real disaster for a well -existing saga.
Central mechanics were increasingly rejected in civilization 7
The heart of dissatisfaction seems to come out Old -age systemA novelty of civilization 7 is intended to modernize the formula. This mechanics as a solution to reduce the micro eye at the end of the game and partially resolves the status of the game, with each passage from one era to the other. In theory, this would enable players to change their strategy during the game without being locked with a single goal.
In practice, many people find this frustrating system in civilization. Some go so far that they no longer want to play beyond the first age because progress is artificially or repeats themselves. Obviously this is not the majority, but it remains very problematic for the strategy game. Firaxis has to react quickly.
Numerous but ineffective patches?
Civilization 7 has received several important corrections since its introduction. Revised interface, balance of managers, new options for multiplayer … developers do not save their efforts. However, these improvements were obviously not enough to bring the game to steam back on Steam. To Last 30 daysonly 38 % of the user ratings are positive and switch to the “fairly negative” category. A critical threshold for such a respected series.
Even if the overall grade of the CIV 7 remains “average” on average, the trend is clearly unfavorable. At the same time, other 4xs like Stellaris or ARA: History Untold attract part of the community. Civilization 7 thus becomes a The least rated Firaxis title on SteamWhen we exclude DLCs. And my heart is still doing that.
