After seeing this I just think it'd be awesome if there's like...

a Civ 7...

where you can play with 100 people, in a way that's playable, somehow.

Yea, not really thought out but if anyone could make it awesome, it'd be them and I'd love to beta/alpha test it.

If any Civ 7 dev is reading this, my email is in my profile.

(yea I know, a crazy long shot, lol :') I'm doing it for the hype)

There was Golden Age of Civilisations (or sth) a while ago. It ran Freeciv (FOSS Civ 2/3 clone) and made each turn take 4 hours and added advanced queuing tooling.

Was quite fun, maybe it still exists, haven't checked.

But why? What would change compared to 12 players on a huge map? Do you just want to conquer a large number of your neighbors and then still get to compete against other mega-empires?

When playing civ on 12 player maps, I still mostly interact only with the 3-4 that I directly compete with at any given time. I imagine that wouldn't really change with 100 people.
