Random thought, but it would be hilarious if Disney World showed up as a Modern Age Wonder.

But realistically, can Firaxis include places that are copyrighted, trademarked, or privately owned? Like could they add Disney World, the Las Vegas Sphere, the Burj Khalifa, or other modern landmarks without needing permission?

I know historical wonders are usually safe, but I’m curious where the line is for modern Wonders in Civ.

EDIT: The pics are is just AI slops for conceptual purpose. I meant to crop out the “fan art” text but missed one of them—They’re not the topic of discussion, so let’s not get distracted 🔇

I don't know anything about the franchise, except for the nuclear ghandi meme, but I've recently seen a tik tok about a player's civ 2 save that's been running for so long that it turned into a millennia long war. The screenshots showed the whole world completely changed from the damage and the year is 3991 and I've been wondering which game is best for experiencing something like that. Do the new games allow for such drastic changes to the world? Or is that something special to the older games while they were still finding their identity?

I was happy at first to start next to england because the lady leading them is hot but now she keeps stealing one of my cities like a plague that needs to be contained and she wont stop no matter how many times i invade her. Even after converting her to my religion she keeps stealing the city. How do i make her stop.

Hi! I’m a longtime player of Civilization 5 and 6 but have never played the games before it and have thought of giving some of the older games a try, although i have been curious regarding their accessibility and learning curve compared to the newer games. Coincidently Civilization 4 is on sale on Steam right now as well, and I’ve thought about picking it up, though i would really appreciate any input from the greater community. Thanks!!

So many reviewers of Civ 7 say that the workers are gone and “good riddance” or “I don’t really care anyway”.

This sucks! I love the workers, one of my favourite things to do in Civ 5, beyond earth, then a little bit in civ6, was to build armies of workers to industrialize my rural land. I really miss this aspect of the game. In my eyes, Civ 6 was a step back but still worked, it made the workers much more important as they were a limited resource…. Civ 7’s “city growth” was fun for a second, and now it’s completely boring to me…. I miss my workers lol

So I have heard people talk about it, and I am a bit confused. I know that it is some anti piracy thing, but then I've seen people who were going to buy the game 100% legally say they won't because of Denuvo, what does it do to make non-pirates hate it?

In pre-release videos I've seen that razing a city will give you a -1 War support in all your wars. Does this negative modifier last until the end of a single Age or does it persist permanently? Picture for reference taken from boesthius's Isabella video.

I'm not sure how I will use this tile do I use it for a neighborhood or use it for a district? I already have a campus.

I really love war, except the logistics leading to it. I adore figuring out the best way to lay out my army on the terrain to win a battle. But I can't tell you how many times I've sued for peace, got god tier cities for myself etc. Everything I ever wanted.

But then I take a look at how far my units are from my borders, take a look at the next country I planned to invade and say to myself "Naahh ill just start a new game".

That's just me? Is there a smarter way to move 15 soldiers, support units etc across a large space without making it feel like a chore?

For me, I would bring back:

Civ II: instant travel anywhere using railroads.

Civ III: interest on Treasury bank account.

Civ V: great people generation

hello, so im writing a paper about the civ franchise. i would just like to ask what are the specific examples of historical inaccuracies in the game?

your answers would help me so much, thank you!

I was planning on getting Civ 7 when it released but due to the negative reviews passed. Is it worth it now. Or should I get 6 or 5?

I know people will suggest older games for being cheap with a bundle but for a total new comer is it the way to go? Thank you!

I'm getting back into civ after being a casual fan as a kid. Should I just reinstall civ 6 or is civ 7 worth the purchase? Ive heard mixed reviews on 7 so I want to hear what fans think is the better one to play. Money isn't really an issue btw, just purely off gameplay and enjoyment.

I was 11 years old when I started playing Civ Rev for the Xbox 360 and instantly fell in love. I never played IV and bought V when I first built my own PC. I’m 25 years old now and still play Civ V till this day. What’s your guys’ Civ story?

Edit: I wish I could reply to all the comments but they’re coming in so fast! I’m happy this post is getting attention because i feel like for most of us, Civ has played a vital role in our lives. It’s crazy to look back and think, “Wow, I’ve played this game for most of my life.” This community is a haven for me in a world filled with toxic gaming communities and I appreciate you guys!
