Sorry to hear about your health issues and glad everyone is otherwise OK.
I totally get how debilitating repetitive stress injuries can be. One reason I haven't been around here on CFC is that I'm winding down 3 months of PT to help manage arthritis in both thumbs. I'm sure it's mostly a...
As a longtime PolyCast listener, I couldn't help but notice that there hasn't been a new episode on this site since June. There have been a handful of more recent episodes posted to the companion YouTube channel, but they seem to be raw live streams in a pretty unfinished state. Most of the...
I first came to the series with IV and it took me a long time to break down and buy V. Having done so, I barely played it. I could never get used to how harshly it penalized expansion, and I never liked the graphics.
I find VI much more engaging than V, granted that's comparing VI GS+DLCs with...
I tried to load a save file from the unpatched EXE after patching, if that's what you mean.
But I tried running with the patched EXE from the beginning and the game crashed on founding my first city.
I'm trying to play DoC for the first time after a long hiatus. (In fact I never played it before on this particular machine so my install is quite fresh.) I downloaded 1.16.7 and sadly it's been very unstable. It's been crashing every 15-30 minutes or even immediately on loading a saved game...
I've long thought that some combination of stack-based strategic movement, switching to 1UPT on a tactical map, was nearly the best of both worlds, and I've seen it work well in other games. The very best of both worlds would be to make the tactical combat optional so you could do a...
I'd recommend buying Civ6 even though it's not nearly as compelling a game experience as Civ4. I've enjoyed playing Civ6 GS but I'm sure it won't hold my attention as long as Civ4.
I still fire up various BtS mods fairly regularly, 13 years after I first bought Civ4. Of course, none of those...
There'll be a handful at least for some time - actuarial data suggests that the last American one will pass away by 2043:

I had the privilege of meeting Richard Overton the year before he passed away at age 112. At...
In Civ4 I never actually modded the main theme music, but most total conversion mods like Fall From Heaven did so.
The main reason I resorted to providing my own soundtrack(s) wasn't because the music that came with the game was inferior. Far from it. In fact, I reused a lot of it. But I've...
Civ4 you could mod the main theme music, and point the soundtrack at a directory on your hard drive. I had one for each era. And the sound files themselves were just MP3 so I could grab what I wanted and throw in anything else I liked.
The background music in Civ6 is fine. But I am completely...
Is a stacking limit even necessary anymore? In Civ6 almost every unit and building has a significant maintenance cost, and it's much harder to field the massive armies that were possible in Civ4, stacking limit or no.
Bringing back the stack would not only simplify unit management and pathing...
I have to agree. IMO builders are one of the best things introduced in Civ6 from the human player's standpoint. In Civ4 I spent a huge amount of time micromanaging workers and in Civ5 it was even worse because 1UPT meant they'd always be getting in each other's way. In Civ6 it's good to keep...
