There have been several days with positive reviews between 40-54% in the past week. That seems to be mostly before the patch, interestingly. Today, it seems down again. The weekly trend for the last to weeks seems to be upwards (from a very low 33% the week before).Reviews have ticked up to mixed, and back in the top 100 top sellers, perhaps i am under-estimating the effect of the patches...
If Gamalytic is to be trusted, there were around 800 sales since yesterday. And there's currently no more price reduction (at least around here). If that's the patch, that's quite interesting, as this is more than during the steam summer sale on average.
I mean, viewing these things a positive shows the low standard from which we currently operate with civ 7, but, you know, hope dies last, and the last 3 patches were really moving the game forward – slowly, but steadily.
