This is so cracy on so much levels its totaly absurd:
1. I learned reading this thread that it needs dx11, normaly civ games are extreme crap graphics like nearly each other game in this genre.
2. they talk about ati cards, did the got stuck 10 years in the past, and did not look out from their rock they were hiding?
3. gpu wise mabye 5% of the users have nvidia gpus, the rest have either intel or amd igps/apus or amd grafics cards so they drop suppport for 95% of their customers under linux, thats a strange thing to do.
4. people here talk about crappy amd drivers, even if you use it in one sentence like amd drivers are crappy but intels are good it makes nearly no sense, because still even most amd gpus are way faster than intel gpus and u got most likely more fps with combination amd gpu + free amd driver than with intel combination. So why would you compare the bad driver from amd with the good driver from intel. Ok here and there the intel driver is still better but the free radeon driver is very close.
5. and then the thing here some people mentioned, if they just relese the game most likely 1-2 months later or at worst 6 months later mesa will support it... except nobody buys this game.

Nvidia is known to take garbage and do something and dont report errors.
