The release ofCivilization 7has been controversial, to say the least.
I enjoyed my time with the game, although I agree it’s not in a perfect place right now. On PC, though, the game is at least functional despite some frustrating UI issues.
That hasn’t been the case with the PS5 version of the game, though, and some players have had enough.
How to Raise the Settlement Cap in Civ 7
Safely expand your empire in Civ 7 by raising the settlement cap.
One Civ fan took toRedditabout their attempts to get a refund on the game through the PlayStation store. They were successful, as they don’t feel like the game is worth the money right now.
“Really wanted to enjoy this game,” they said. “I can get over the UI, the pain in the butt playstation controls. But it’s the constant crashes. Even after the patch the playstation 5 for me still crashes every single game I play. For a game that cost £115 it’s shocking. Sad. But hopefully rejoin you all in a year when it’s all fixed.”
The original poster was far from the only person to experience these issues. Many people have said that they plan on trying to get refunds of their own.
“I got 9 crashes just getting into the game and being able to play a single turn,” one commenter said. “Refunded after about an hour of frustration.”
“You did the right thing,” chimed in another fan. “You are not a beta tester, you deserve a fully functional game.”
