Overview

• Millennia, a new 4X strategy game, faces criticism for its lack of innovation and numerous gameplay issues.
• Despite aiming to challenge Civilization's dominance, Millennia is criticized for its outdated visuals, cumbersome mechanics, and lack of depth.
• Players can shape the progression of the world through decisions, but the execution often feels haphazard and frustrating.
• The game introduces unique ages and cultural development, but critics find these features underwhelming and poorly implemented.
• Millennia's launch issues are part of a pattern for publisher Paradox, following the poorly received Cities: Skylines II.
