    The difference between Civ 7 on Switch and Civ 7 on Switch 2 is basically day and night. Loading Times are much shorter, visuals and performance way better now I can at least play bigger maps with more players on the go. I even prefer the experience on Switch 2 to Playstation and Xbox since touch controls in handheld mode and mouse controls in TV mode are so flexible. For me it’s a perfect way to keep playing Civ 7 when I’m away from the PC.

    Civilization VII is an excellent demonstration of just how good mouse controls can be and the game is significantly better than the Switch 1 release for it. Unfortunately, while the interface and UI is now an order of magnitude better, nothing can hide the fact that Civilization VII is just not very good. I hadn’t played it since launch, so I took this opportunity to dig in and see what the patching has achieved over the last few months, and it’s still not good. I don’t think anything can fix the way the game soft-resets with each era and effectively splits one campaign into three. It’s just broken game design.
