Yeah, that's totally fair. Besides denuvo that was my other concern. I only buy like five games a year though and never at release so I thought I'd treat myself xD

I'd probably recommend to anyone who hasn't sunk hundreds of hours into any of the other civ games to just buy 6/5 and play that until 7 is on sale with a dlc or two. Seeing as how notorious civ is for being worse than the predecessor without dlc.

Totally agree with most of what you said. Trust me, I’m ready for a new Civ game. Just don’t feel like getting gouged especially for a series that routinely goes on deep sales.
