Hm, true. I do have a theory stolen from many others about Civ being like Star Trek in that the odd numbered ones are less than impressive. III certainly was, the changes they made were just bleh. But I'd definitely advise that you play Civ 2 if you've never done so. They really need to make SMAC 2. But maybe without Shafer doing the design *laugh*

Start with II and then move up.

Probably should get this. Or maybe hang on until the GOTY edition is out in the future.

For my sins, I'm listening to Death Magnetic. http://il.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xb8n2ffAic&...feature=related Best part is the "LOVE IS A FOUR LETTER WORD!!"

Well that's true for all the Civs. Although I put cities on stuff like Wealth or Research more than improvements as all that does is weaken my economy.

Best way to play Civ is at Marathon I found, gives you a nice sense of creating history.

Usually the Enter key spam ends by the time you have more than 2-3 cities, though. Not the case with my games in Civ V. But then again, maybe I didn't adapt, heh. Overall only things I really want reverted is happiness, health to return and adjustable taxation.

Cities are indeed just bases that turn out units. Thrilling stuff.

What, no rioting ? No burning cars, smashing windows, or an orgy of destruction ? Bah, people need to learn how to celebrate victory.

Command & Conquer. Forgot how much I hate the Delphi mission.

Seems like mocking to me, but I must be paranoid about these kinds of things.

Well I think the Mage's Tower is the only part you ever interact with the Fade, that was a neat quest the first time (second time it's just bleh). I hope the Deep Roads return.

Well, if the person's high up enough I can see that being the case. But the treatment her character got from other NPCs in DA did make think they were going to do more with her than they actually did.

SC2 was okay. Still feel it was a waste of money though, once I finished the SP. Ah well.

What was wrong with Rachel ? :D

I will, I could have bought it cheaper in 3 or 4 years time

Tribes 2 was innovative for me just because I could see my legs.

Never tried that. It could be pretty fun though, I loved Tribes, still play it, but will have to see if I can justify spending monthly for it.

Of all things, WoW. 4 manned BWL with my friends - Chromag was a PITA, but we eventually got him down. Nef was a piece of cake. Gotta farm that for the Judgement set.

Hah, hardly. Almost all the senior people I've ever worked with have been douches. Must be some requirement for advancement as a developer : "Must be a prick".

Now if they'd only make the AI less kooky.. It's sad, or maybe I just suck, that I really didn't generate an addiction to this Civ.

Why do you think that's a bug ?

Possible "HD'd" Deus Ex, too... Thank God, I can't play it on today's hardware.

I guess we do. And your definition is the incorrect one.
