You should have left it alone.

I don’t know where to begin. I’ve played this game for almost 30 years and I honestly don’t recognize it anymore.

It’s gaudy and overworked. The simplest changes go overlooked. We get half a dozen new civs every year, and they’re broken from the start - at least until the next patch.

I have to say what a lot of us are thinking: This game fucking sucks now.

You are alienating your core, nostalgia generation for new players. Fine. But also… they’ll play something else when it’s the new thing.

You messed up, BAD. We wanted reskins and civ balances, not new civs and even more uneven DLCs.

Yeah, progression in media is hard and yet you’re maybe getting new players while losing a fan base of over 30+ years.

You don’t listen, you don’t test, you don’t ask.

Thank you for keeping the game going as long as you did, but no, this isn’t “the game” anymore.
