Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

2K removes its pointless launcher from Civilization 6, while also announcing that Civilization 7 players will never have to suffer launching the game twice for no reason (www.pcgamer.com)

I bought and own Civ 6 for Android. I tried to play it on a flight and was pissed because it requires an active internet connection.

So I own a pirated version of it now.

Ironically pirating is the only way you can actually own (instead of license) software these days.

Any single player game that doesn't work at all without an internet connection can't be said to be owned either, at least this way it's always playable
