I think this is not supposed to work, it's just an UI mockup?

I wish this were made clear somewhere. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong before assuming that it was broken.

I rebuilt the UI and UX, not the game itself. If I could do that, I would be working at Firaxis right now haha

bit of a random tangent, but Civ VI does not run well on Linux at all, even with good specs, even unplayable depending on you exact OS.

I have it running on Arch Linux about as well as MacOS. Which plainly speaking means absolutely awful.

My biggest frustration is that the game crashes when it attempts to submit a play by cloud turn if webhooks are turned on. And it has for a year now. With no indication it will ever be fixed.

And don't get me started with the game on MacOS completely ignoring mouse clicks for the right third of the screen.

I tried it on several Ubuntu versions and it was completely unplayable. Extreme lag in single player and even attempting to start a multiplayer game will freeze. I was able to play it on Fedora 32 (I suspect the more up to date kernel probably helped) but it had to be in the lowest settings. Of course I also have an Nvidia card so I probably asked for it.

They also completely broke cross platform play a while back, although there was a hack to "fix" it (fix meaning per-turn de-syncs)

Sadly this is wrong, as my play time of 448 hours shows

Had I instead got a minimum wage job, I'd have £4,000 more money.

It’s an abomination on PS4 too for what it’s worth.
