Inevitably, this means that PC users have had more than enough time to crack the whole thing wide open. In addition to unused leaders and civilizations, it appears that a fourth technological era, the Atomic Age, may be planned for a future, probable DLC release. Or it could all just be cut content.On Reddit, the findings were shared by user ManByTheRiver11. Regarding leaders, references to Edward Teach, Sayyida al-Hurra, and Whina Cooper were found, as well as unused civilizations, specifically the Ottomans, Māori, Tonga, Pirate Republic, and Iceland. However, fans are concerned that the game is being set up to follow its predecessor’s egregiously costly DLC model.Exclusive to Meta Quest 3 headsetsPC feedback has been mixedIt remains to be seen what publisher 2K’s post-launch plan for Civilization VII will ultimately be, but if history has shown us anything, getting Firaxis’ true vision for the game will likely cost you a pretty penny.

And that already comes with steep price. I would expect that after October they will announce Year 2 Season Pass for another 30-40£.
But I am happy with the game in general. I am not mega fan of Civ series, but this years game feel great with all the Gameplay changes. Sadly there is too many game crashes but every turn autosave is atleast helping with that.The DLC cost for Civ softens massively over time once sales kick in a couple of years down the line. Buying everything at full price can be steep. In the meantime, after a few days with the base game, there is so much replayability here I doubt I’ll be in a rush to add content beyond what I’ve already got coming in March (Deluxe Edition purchased).The game looks, feels and plays great. I thought the same thing about Civ6 and that launched in a fairly bare bones state too, since then we’ve had years of DLC for the game and I’ve still yet to get through them all. I don’t like the publisher’s approach to monetization but I trust enough in the Dev’s vision to keep dipping back in as they add more content over time. I’ve seen a lot of the previous negativity surrounding the game start to dry up as folks get hands on with the game themselves and see how much more the new changes add to the experience. The city management alone is a real game changer.Edit: The really weird thing about the game is that the more you get into those new mechanics the more Civ6 feels like the unfinished one. That’s even with all of the DLCs that are available for Civ6, it’s easy to focus on the number of leaders and Civs but honestly once you get deep into a playthrough you quickly forget about all of that. It’s definitely quality over quantity.Cut content for DLC. It’s a cynical bare bones launch.I have really liked the game so far. At first, the changes were so significant that I had doubts, but the controls become easy as you play, game flow makes more sense and you start to really get into it. The combat and diplomacy are much better and my biggest gripe with all earlier Civs is that I love the beginning and middle, but the end gets boring, but in this, you really have a lot to do in all ages and the game can really change quickly. Haven’t felt there are too few leaders yet, but happy more are coming as they definitely kept ones back like they have before.It has poorer critic ratings than normal, much lower, and has a 51% positive review rate on Steam. Civ 7’s launch is an absolute disaster. I already decided I wasn’t interested, but it’s launch is much worse than I expected.It really does feel like the game is begging for an atomic era to really finalize the experience. There’s more evidence pointing to it’s existence because you still get promotion points when you finish the modern era that are seemingly supposed to carry over to the next era. That being said eras are a huge deal now so I can see them needing more time to cook up an atomic era.My guess for atomic era mechanics: The world goes into a cold war. Everyone races to get their hands on nukes (or maintain them if they already have them.) The more, the better…but it’s also more expensive and the possibility of a Chernobyl can strike if you slack on proper care and maintenance. The possibility of nuclear Armageddon looms over everyone and the threat of mutually assured destruction keeps everyone’s fingers off the button. Will nukes be used as a deterrent? Or a weapon of mass destruction? Find out in the atomic era.
