Clearly you don't have a lot of brain cells to rub together.

A percentage of those online is expected to leave a review, good or bad. It's never been a mathematical certainty that all would post a review. You're assuming that those that don't leave a negative review are clearly endorsing Civ 7, this is a fallacy.

Just get lost, troll.

There's a reason I blocked you, but this one time I'll indulge.. my position isn't who reviews, but who plays. If a game is bad, people don't play it. 46000 people are playing Civ 7 right now, which means 46000 people think the game is good enough for them, that in of itself is a review. It just isn't written down. Now on the subject of the number of grey brain cells, i do believe they number in the trillions for most people.

Rather than make an argument.. you prefer to just call people names and try to shut down the conversation with your bullying tactics. Which is why I blocked you before.

This is totally wrong. 46k people either like playing the game, or are brand new players on day 2, and they are giving the game a try. They spent money on it and are playing it. This does not mean they like it. What will be more interesting is player numbers in a week or 2.

Like any other Civ, hold off with buying until the first expansion, after that it's calm waters.

[A TIN OF JAR]

When you take into account that this game is brand new and currently sitting at 51,864 concurrent players yet the 9 year old Civ 6 is currently sitting at 49,038 players the figures are quit shocking and speak for themselves.

I have had Civ 7 on my wishlist since it became available but the reviews are shocking so I will hold off and stick with Civ 6 until Civ 7 either goes on sale or the issues are fixed.

6 k negative reviews. 46k online right now. And this is a bad game? Do the math mate.

These are people who are just trying out the game after buying it. I also played for 20 hours. You have to play it to then realize that it is rubbish. DO THE LOGIC!

Civ 6 had twice as many players at launch.... yet, Civ 7 has 2+ times as many reviews at launch

Steam keys are more widely used now and they don't count in reviews.... in theory civ 7 should have far less reviews. And since refunds don't count it should have even less than that if this game is doing so much worse number wise...

civ 6 went way down from 167k+ at launch to incredible crap numbers after a few months and stayed there for years.

In other words all this "math" is kinda meaningless crap that doesn't tell you anything about how good or bad a game is...

Yep, this game is not for you. I enjoy the hell out of it, it's a game for me :)

Is that the reason why you are here in the forum 24/7 instead of in-game, because you love it so much?

Tons of people love and acknowledge their love for terrible games. Tons of people play games that are completely broken, with a lot of those people using fixes for terribly released games.

Liking a game =\= is good game.

Lol, okay. All I have to say that it's quite clear you never took any statistic courses or even attempt it. If you did, you would have understood quickly that the way you view the number of people online and playing Civ 7 is a indicator of nothing other than players trying it out or playing it but it provides no context until you compare it with another number. IE Civ 6 number in similar circumstances, which would be their launch and at Civ 6 launch, there was a peak of 160,000+ players playing it and this is DOUBLE of Civilization 7 launch numbers.

Keep in mind, there are more players in Steam than back in Civilization 6 release so adjusting for that, I would ballpark the actual peak players playing Civilization 7 at probably 25k to 28k when comparing to the numbers of players playing Civ 6 for an Apple-to-Apple comparison but of course, I haven't done any adjustment calculation as I don't need to other than estimate it.

Your argument is from a simplistic point of view with absolutely no context or anything to compare to. You simply think 46k is a great number but again, compared to what?

Finally, subtracting 6k negative review from 46k online players is like trying to move a number from one side of the equation to the other side without following any of the mathematical rules. They're not the same and that's what caused me to comment on it, among others as well.

That's the thing about the glass being half full or half empty. But from a business perspective, this statistic is terrible. You want at least 80% to be good. Then the game will continue to sell in the future. AND: Who buys an add-on (which fireaxis lives off of) for a game they don't want?

As YOU can see, there is not only the view through rose-tinted fan glasses, but also the view of reality, even if that isn't nice. I too would have liked them to sell me a good CIV VII.

game has been out for like 4-5 days (including the early access) and bro already has nearly 120 hours in, meaning hes been playing non stop, either hes unemployed/well off or just run his game without playing it

[WiggyWoz]

This is the worst launch for Civ 7 when compared to Civ 7 launch.

wat

And civ games are literally always review-bombed. The community is well known for it's toxicity.

[Rogue⛧4⛧Life]

Yes because people as a whole are known for the genius.

It's probably better you don't get this because this game is released unfinished and it requires independent thinking and problem solving. Something that does not seem like your forte.
