This is lovely for them to do…

But my main takeaway is that Civilization 7 is finally under development!

There's already gameplay footage out, and some youtubers got to try an early version! It looks like they're trying some new stuff, lots of the mechanics look pretty good to me, fingers crossed that it turns out well!

I wonder if there would be interest in something like crusader kings for the americas

I hope the wisdom of the Shawnee guided them into making higher difficulties more complex then dumping resources on your opponents in the early game
