  I have 2400+ hrs in this game. I have been playing versions Civilization since 1996. The problem isn't the game, it's the publisher. 2K placed a launcher on top of the Steam launcher, so you are forced to sign up to data mining activities. Up till the 2K launcher was in place the game was stable and I never had any issue with mods. Now the game consistently CTD and when it does load, will not load a saved game. 2K ask that players uninstall the game, clean all the related files from their pc and reinstall. Thanks. Proof that you don't care and the uninstall exe isn't optimised to clean the registry and hd properly. All so 2K can data mine you. This is just unacceptable and anti-consumer. Thus I can not recommend the game. Don't be fooled people, they don't care despite their marketing and have already moved onto the next big game to make money from. To Sid Mier and Firaxis. Your names are being dragged through the dirt. Is this what you wanted?

  As a cybersecurity professional , I would classify this game as malware, or at the least adware. Why? It opens up a number, at least 10 when I checked, of connections to various points on the internet which have no purpose in running the game. They are only there so the vendor can spam you with advertising, track you, or for other unspecified activities. As such, I can NOT recommend this game. To verify, I disconnected my computer from the internet. The game ran fine without the advertising and tracking. Then I connected back to the internet, and launched the game. The game opened at least 10 connections(!). Then, while still connected to the internet, I blocked the game's network-connecting executables in the firewall. In such a case, the game behaves differently, apparently it sees there is an active connection so it runs for a while, then when it cannot make it's for-bad-purposes network connections, it terminates and you can't play. This is bad behavior that I would only expect from spyware and malware. I hope the vendor fixes it so the software runs in the manner they declare - it is supposed to not require network connectivity after the initial run as they describe in the System Requirements. Steam should be reigning in this behavior as well.

  Fun game but latest patches have made it unplayable. It crashes every 10-15 minutes. This is a commonly reported issue found in online forums that the company has done nothing to address.

  It's a type of game which I'm afraid to start playing, because I fear I will never stop.
