    Would you date an adult film actor/actress?

    Yes. As shallow as it sounds, I'd date an adult actress just for the experience. As long as I didn't look for anything serious in it, I think it'd be okay.

    Civilization 5 Rants Thread

    I find it hilarious that long before archery is invented, cities have ranged attacks. I find the interface to be cluttered and uninformative as well. In trying to streamline and dumb everything down, I find it more cumbersome to find details about buildings, units, etc.

    What government is the best?

    I always found myself sticking with Despotism. I don't know why. Usually late in the game when I was ready to change I was already mired in wars, and switching to other governments caused population unhappiness.

    Gods and Kings feels like something that really should have been a part of the base game.

    How were home PCs used in 1996?

    I feel like using a computer in 1996 was more family or group oriented. For example, when you played a game you often sat around with a couple people and enjoyed it together.
