Their design process is 1/3 old stuff, 1/3 reworked stuff and 1/3 new stuff. The idea is that why should release a new game if it’s just the same as the last one. This is actually a problem so often that there is a recurring meme within civ communities every new release
If you self host, you could try searxng

I love how it’s worded like concord is a beloved game that is shutting down after a decade
According to this blog post, they are currently limited to 10 accounts, so not many open servers, but you can host your own.
This is an old blog post, though, so the limit might have been lifted
iirc, atprotocol was made to bring some features of mainstream social media to the fediverse that activitypub maintainer have said they won’t be adding. They explain other reasons in their faq
It doesn’t say there’s any limit on their github
In theory, bluesky can federate with other apps but it is currently the only one using their protocol, bluesky servers can federate with each other and when a new project using atprotocol appears it will probably be able to federate with that
But civ (and rockstar) are take two’s money printers, even executives know not to fuck this series up (hopefully)
I’d hope it’s carefulness but it doesn’t seem like it. Facebook should want to destroy fediverse instances (from a business point of view), they are supposed to be a monopoly and the fediverse is their biggest competitor.
Tumblr’s backend has been passed between several companies* for several decades, it’s a miracle it still works and can be updated
*some of which don’t even know what tumblr is
(and a couple contributors) to develop a fully federated platform. Why is it taking one of the largest companies on the planet this long to make such tiny changes that are useless anyway.
It took around a year for a solo devAnd why are they releasing it like this instead of releasing everything at once?
It’s the same as civ 6. Having a 2k account gave an extra leader for Rome, all leaders have unique abilities, it’s not just cosmetic.
It is probably moddable as custom leaders were possible in civ 6
It’s probably to make cross-platform easier (since it’s releasing same day on all platforms)
Coincidentally, ksp also uses the 2k launcher as it was published* by a take two label, private division (rip)
*after they bought the ip
There’s also an .exe you could use if you’re on windows
Tldr: They’ve been going through this cycle of consecutive huge successes and consecutive flops for decades but this is the worst series of flops in the company’s history
My guess is because of shareholder pressure
