Wish it didn't require a 2k account. don't need another account to play a video game.

It doesn't. They mentioned there would be a unique skin for Napoleon if you signed up but it didn't sound required.

The steam page literally says that it requires a 3rd party account for online play (just not required for offline play). so I'm not sure if that's what you're referencing.

Ah, there's the catch and confusion. Not required for single player but required for multi, I guess? Not sure how others play Civ but that's not gonna affect me. I've only ever played these games solo besides a very rare duo game.

It's probably to make cross-platform easier (since it's releasing same day on all platforms)

Uh-oh. That's the sort of thing that would lead me not to buy it.
