Developers of the upcoming Civilization VII game, Firaxis, are looking for some feedback regarding the game. This is our opportunity to show them there are many players on GNU/Linux and that integrating Denuvo anti-cheat rootkit would be a big no-no (it's mentioned in one of the questions).

Done! I told them this is the first Civ game in a long time that I have no interest in picking up at launch, because of Denuvo and that the price is wildly unreasonable. Nearly $170 Canadian for the full edition!

This is actually the first I've heard of Denuvo, but if Wikipedia's page on it is any indication, it sounds pretty awful! Anyway, I've checked the dealbreaker box on the survey.

Done. Glad they have a checkbox calling out Denuvo DRM as a dealbreaker.

It seems they already know how the community feels 🤣

Done. And be sure to select Denuvo DRM is a deal breaker towards the end!

Make sure you check mods as being important. Support for mods is critical for any long-term enjoyment of a game.
