Build something you believe in. Sid Meier's Civilization VII arrives February 11, 2025.► Watch the Official Gameplay Showcase: https://2kgam.es/Civ7Showcase►...
The steam page literally says that it requires a 3rd party account for online play (just not required for offline play). so I’m not sure if that’s what you’re referencing.
Ah, there’s the catch and confusion. Not required for single player but required for multi, I guess? Not sure how others play Civ but that’s not gonna affect me. I’ve only ever played these games solo besides a very rare duo game.
Wish it didn’t require a 2k account. don’t need another account to play a video game.
It doesn’t. They mentioned there would be a unique skin for Napoleon if you signed up but it didn’t sound required.

Uh-oh. That’s the sort of thing that would lead me not to buy it.
Ah, so that’s why your leader now appears when you are communicating with a different civ. They had to add this for bullshit skins monetization.
Edit: I wonder if this will be moddable: I now wanna see Master Chief teabagging Cleopatra when I declare war
Why would you need an account to play a single player, non cloud hosted game?
Shitty publisher mandated launchers.
They are getting rid of the launcher for Civ 6: https://www.pcgamer.com/games/strategy/2k-removes-its-pointless-launcher-from-civilization-6-while-also-announcing-that-civilization-7-players-will-never-have-to-suffer-launching-the-game-twice-for-no-reason/
Good, I wonder if they removed it for Xcom 2 yet. I haven’t played that since they sideloaded that crap into my steam install.
Didn’t they announce that there would not be a launcher? Also removed for Civ VI.
