    State of the game

    Yes, I agree on all accounts, although it's worth noting that I've found myself being on friendly terms with almost everyone for surprisingly long after the expansion. I am hardly getting DOW-ed often as I used to, even if at times some civs still do stupid things. I am 2nd in military strength...

    Civilization 5 Rants Thread

    Oh brother, of course I didn't prove you wrong, I pointed out that something you said was wrong, there is a difference here. It's your personal opinion whether you like the game or not, there is nothing wrong or right here! I apologize if it came off as an attack, I just made a comment that...

    Diplo wins - still stupid

    Yes, it is. It is because until you get to the Renaissance you are counting your coppers and the best way to get CSs on your side is to actually do missions for them. This changes with time, but until the Renaissance buying them out isn't an option. In your system it would be throughout the...

    Is "We Love the King Day" more of a penalty than a bonus?

    Not only are those additional "steps" meaningless within the context of a TBS game, but the bonus is in no way wasted. By having extra food you city can focus even more on production tiles and ignore those that produce food even more. So no matter what you do, that We Love the King Day bonus...

    I'm feeling over-bonused

    NO! I hated that! Losing my warrior to random chance, the only unit I can scout with the first 20 turns or so? No, no, no, I hated that! It's one thing to let the player choose between two options, each with its positives and negatives. It's a whole other thing to slap the player in the face...

    Diplo wins - still stupid

    Don't take it so personally. It's not that the idea is bad, it's that the Ai will never be able to cope with it. It will ether mean the AI would be able to buy out all city states, or it would buy out only one and leave the rest for the player. And even if Firaxis do code in an incredibly...

    Religion questions

    I think it was actually bugged, don't know if they fixed it.

    Does Theodora ever get off the couch?

    Good one, except for Ramesses. He is not the god of the sun, you are mistaking him for Akhenaten :P

    RoN Developer Big Huge Games Shut Down

    Don't. I mean, it's great news that all the folks from BHG were hired, but if you think this was an act of mercy on Epic's side, you are wrong. They were looking for a way to expand and BHG's woes just coincided perfectly with their plans. It was just a very good business deal that benefited...

    Write Civillization with your elbow

    ciuvilization Yeah, I made a mistake, bite my shiny skinny elbow.

    I'm feeling over-bonused

    How's about you first play the game and then dismiss features, m'kay? Everyone hated corruption in III. Everybody loved governments in 2. You simply have no idea what we are talking about, so don't jump to conclusions like that. And saying that old games have faulty mechanics by default is wrong...

    Civilization 5 Rants Thread

    I merely pointed out you were wrong. You consider that baiting? Hate the game for whatever reasons, whether relevant or not, whatever, I don't mind. There are plenty of people who hate IV and III as well, it's only natural.

    I'm feeling over-bonused

    You miss the point. This isn't about choosing bad things, it's about choosing two good things that also have a negative. It's not fun and it feels bad? I wonder why it worked so well in Civ 2 then.
