Assuming further that publishers have little interest in splitting their player base into groups on different launchers that cannot play with each other, I expect more cross-platform multiplayer in the future. I do genuinely hope that there is a silver lining here, namely that putting it on the Epic store and then, presumably, on Steam later on means that the game is not built to depend on one specific platform and thus may come to GOG more easily. Meanwhile, I was about to cave in and get this game on Steam, but in an ironic twost of fate, Ubisoft decided to prove a point and put it on epic exclusive. These same people now enjoy the amazing feature of having games forcibly tied to several launchers with more on the horizon.

It very well might be, but I'm going to have to put in many more hours before I know whether its idiosyncrasies will make me fall hopelessly in love with it, or drive me away entirely. But I'm going to stop just short of saying it's the best city-builder I've ever played, because I'm not sure yet. "I say that as a serious fan of the city-building genre, too. "Anno 1800 is the most impressive city-builder I've ever come across," our Old Nate declared in his Anno 1800 review back in April.
