Is Civilization 7 not fun?
-
You should try Unciv. It's an open source Civilisation game. Yes, you can play online too. Not a very good looking game, but still awesome. Works on Android too.

They stole that and some other mechanics from Humankind, a game by the same studio as Endless Legend. It wasn't received that well in Humankind either, so I'm kinda surprised that they stole it anyway, but I guess line must go up and they didn't have a lot of inspiration themselves?
-
Yeah, its game mechanics are very similar to Civ5, which is still considered one of the high points in the Civ series. And it does reproduce them quite well, so I do think that can give you a good impression, if Civ is for you.

Humankind is free on EGS.

another round, here we go

Civ games at launch are often a bit of a mixed bag, and the games improve over time with patches and expansions. That being said, the game isn't even fully out yet, and early Steam reviews are notoriously unreliable and undifferentiated. For your first civ game, maybe look at earlier titles like Civ 5 or 6. They have aged very well, I still play 6 all the time.

Unpopular opinion turn base is boring.
Rather pkay something like Stellaris where it turns to turn Base cause My 2012 pc can't handle the game with 309 mods. -
Played the mobile version on and old iPhone 3g growing up. Had no clue what i was doing but loved every second of it
-
i tried it for 2h and refunded it, since i didnt enjoy it like the previous civs.
It just didnt click for me and was not worth 100€ imo.I might check it out again in a year or so on a sale

Civilization V
Just start with that one and you won't regret it.

What about 4?
Never played it myself, but goddamn is that Baba Yetu song awesome. It’s been on my playlist for many years.
-
This right here.
I played 6 at launch and it was a huge downgrade from 5 but now it's been updated so much it's now unrecognizable from what was released as 6.
Every patch, update, and DLC will change it incrementally back into a similar experience as the others. They like to try to get real wild with the initial release but it tends to get back to the same sort of things eventually.
-
As others have said, play Civ 5. Better game with all the bugs worked out, and cheaper.
-
I am hoping that is the case, but I do have to say that this one boggles the mind just a little bit to be launching without significant features that the previous games had like hotseat multiplayer and limited era games.
-
I find it wild that people play a game for 200 hours and then go "eh it's okay" or "it's not that great " Like you really wasted 200 hours on something bad? It must have been pretty decent to keep you engaged for that long, no?
-
As others have said start with 5. The rule of thumb for civ games is to wait for the expansion dlc to release and buy the game on sale. 7 is also a significant departure from the previous games, so it's probably even more important to wait or outright skip it until they get it more polished.
Also it's worth looking into endless legend or endless space 2 if you want to try more 4x games.
-
Civ4 is the one I still play. I like my stacks of doom and could never get into the hexagons and no stacking units of later games.

100€ for a singular videogame sounds so crazy to me
