Fixis, a developer of civilization VII, released the unknown number of people today, despite the insistence of the general director Strauss Zelnicka, that the sale of the game is consistent with expectations.
Today, many Firaxis employees have announced in social media that they were released, including members productionIN narrationAND piece. Civilization VII Publisher 2K confirmed the exemptions for the game creatorSpeaking, the studio restructures and optimized the development process in terms of “adaptation, cooperation and creativity.” The company has not confirmed the number of affected people.
Firaxis released Civilization VII at the beginning of this year, and since then the game received a mixed party on Steam among players’ complaints about the game user interface, lack of variety of maps and that it lacked the expected functions. Since then, Firaxis has published a number of game updates to improve it in these areas.
In the meantime, Strauss Zelnick, general director of 2K Parent Take-Tie, said that although civilization of VII has moved to a “slow start”, the company’s internal forecasts for “lifetime of the game” still match the initial expectations.
“I think that the most important thing is that CIV has always been a slow burns. It has always been a title – I am not a great believing in the theory of a long tail of an entertainment company – but CIV is an example of this theory. And now our projections for the whole life of the title are very consistent with our initial expectations of the title.
“So when we were slowly and although we had to make changes – and there are more changes – it seems to me that consumers are getting better and we feel really good with the title. I think that in time it will take this place in his pantheon of civilization in a very successful, credible way.”
