Obviously. I mean, I’ve only played Civ 6 for hundreds of hours. But they didn’t function similarly to Humankind. The districts in Civ 7 seem to work exactly like how they do in Humankind.
I played some Humankind recently for the first time, and it made me realise that Civ 7 is stealing a lot of their homework. Districts, civilisations, even the leader interact/diplomacy screen all look incredibly similar to Humankind.
… to the extent of killing off live service games.
I mean… Nothing of value was lost? In my opinion, so far, the only decent live service game to have ever come out is still Warframe. Everything else that cane after is either a pale imitation or straight up cow milking garbage.
We could certainly do with a lot less “live service”.
When I was invited to be part of the insider program there was a special insider forum and I was given two surveys to do. This was all within the first few months of the invites going out.
I still technically am an insider of Behind Good and Evil 2, but I haven’t heard a single bloody thing for YEARS. 10 by now, I think.
This is the first time I’ve heard anything about the franchise and it’s not even from an insider email… Or even remotely related to the prequel that was supposedly well into its development.
(And also potentially bring back some of those sought after Bionicle pieces). It would go against LEGO’s “no guns” policy, but they’ve broken that policy so often and in so many ways by now it’s more of a vague suggestion.
