    Yeah Civ7 will never “get fixed”; a skeleton crew is not going to ship 2 banger DLCs to bring it up to par, hell the previous team barely shipped Civ7 as it is, and now they don’t even have that.

    The writing was on the wall since Midnight Suns bombed and Civ7 was supposed to save the studio. Except management forced dev to dig their own graves by following up the fucking XCOM series with a forgettable marvelslop tactics game they didn’t even market. Sure Firaxis is down but not out but execs have a bad habit of going “Oh, are the sure we want to make another Civ game? That last one didn’t sell so well.”
