Is Civ 7 Deity too easy?

[Fippy]

All Civ games have OP strats that guarantee victory. If you’re choosing to make the game super easy for yourself you can’t complain that you won.

You are never guaranteed victory on Civ4 deity, and i played it for ~10 years (not hours)..
some leaders are (much) better than others, but you can pick the best guy and still lose.
If you have less than months of experience - no chance.
The franchise simply changed afterwards.
