Civilization 7 is a competent entry with some poorly executed ideas and a striking lack of personality.
Prices revealed for all Nintendo Switch 2 Upgrade Packs, coming from both Nintendo and third-parties.
I argue that simple res/FPS bumps should be free, and then you can charge $10 if it includes actual extra content. That seems to be what has been settled on.
Many PS4 games got free upgrades for PS5 when just increasing res/FPS. Days Gone, for example, got a free FPS bump to start the generation. Now it's getting a "remaster", improved visuals/extra modes/content for $10.
I know they have *some* free upgrades - though we don't know what they entail - but the Zelda games just seem like they know they can get money from eager new buyers, so why not. Zelda Notes doesn't quite seem to justify $10, but hey, let us choose. Make it a $10 app, and give the res/FPS upgrades for free.
Weird the Jamboree pack being 20 with no new boards or minigames for party mode, way to miss the mark. Minigame variety is seriously lacking for the party mode compared to superstars, my biggest issue with the game, think I'll pass on that.
I wonder if there will be supply issues (unable to find the system). Interesting that they are launching in the middle of the year as well.
Civilization 7 has no shortage of Antiquity Age Civs to choose from, but the Maya might be the best bet for those on the path to a Science victory.
TNS: Sid Meier's Civilization VII presents some extremely unique but divisive new rules to the classic 4X franchise, often for the better.
Not really in the mood for these anymore. I overplayed Civ 5 and somehow it tired me out.
"Civilization 7 is a competent entry"
I would read the whole review if the first line made sense. Competent is average, a 4 would be unacceptable.
