Civilization 7 Review Thread

Good Morning Friends! VanBradley is back in action and still very cleverly disguised. Just as I did for the previews I will be updating this thread to include reviews of Civilization 7 as they get released this morning. If any get posted that I miss feel free to post them in the comments ⚔️

Edit: There is another great review thread to check out as well! https://www.reddit.com/r/civ/comments/1igprca/civilization_vii_review_thread/

Edit2: There are fewer content creator reviews than I was expecting and I think I've captured the main journalist reviews. I shall be heading for a coffee and to reply to some comments and will update again in half an our or so!
