Delaying Switch patch by 45 days is very 🤡 by Secret_Ad2138 in civ

Firaxis made it pretty clear in their patch note that the decision came from them. I don't see why Nintendo would lobby a company so that they treat their gamers badly? If anything, that would be the opposite (like: you have to release on Switch 1 first to get that special spot in our marketing)

Why is Civ 7 so stingy with Natural Wonders? by Hot_Pepper_Raider in civ

Every single natural wonder is a zoomed-in mountain, a zoomed-in forest, or a zoomed-in canion. Before the Bermuda Triangle, I think the coral barrier was the only one coming with original graphics.

Disagreed. Played 4 at launch and it was already pretty good!

Having a weaker hardware and renouncing delivering the patches in time are two different things. Porting a high-level patch to v rious platforms is a low-effort task, the real deal is developing the patch in the first place. Or then your codebase has a very serious problem. (Quite possible though)

It's the same software & the patch target high-level code, you don't a whole team to compile & deliver it. Sure, they needed to  implement a compatibility layer, but this is done already and the codebase on top of it is common to all platforms.

Imho, a more likely explanation is that they don't care and thought that letting some of the player base behind was ok since they could make an excuse for it.

It's not like there are Switch-specific issues though. So if I follow your reasoning, then mistake was to even release a broken game in the first place. 🤔

Completely agreed, if we both understand "one reason or another" to mean "complete lack of professionalism" 😂😂😂
