Hopefully they learnt their lesson and don't screw it up by having an elcheapo schoolkid design this one, like they did with Civ 5.

I don't believe for moment that anyone who was a serious player of Civ 4 could like Civ 5. Also lets not forget the fact that no demo was released until release day. No prizes for guessing why that decision was made...

Anything with Jon Shafers name on it is poison for me. I think the way he ruined the Civ franchise will haunt his career forever. He would be better getting into another area of programming.

No it's not worth it. It will never be the great game Civ 5 was. The developers knew this when they suddenly decided not to release a demo version before final release as they knew no one would buy it if they knew the truth. That's what you get by trying to save money and letting a kid develop...

Oh thats easy...Civ 4.

Hmmmm this one is easy. I hate Civ V.

Come on, Civ V is a failure in the market and the community because it is a simplified, dumbed down game. It is also full of flawed concepts that just don't work. Further, the developers mislead the community by not coming clean about the game before it was released. That's why few play it...

Really? Sounds like the Chinese Civilization to me. Warned for PDMA.

Sorry, but it's still crap. It has a minicule following compared to the 10 year old Civ 4. Watch if they come out with Civ 6..."we have listened to those who hated the dumbing down of Civ 5 and have moved back to what Civ is all about ......."

If you want to see if Civ V is worth playing, check out how many thread replies, mods and discussions take place in the Civ 4 forum compared to V.

No. Still Crap.

Why use $50 or $60? The are many, many people who are not in the US who pay up to $100 USD for the game. I say selling 250-300,000 is pretty terrible.

"for you the blind who once could see, the bell tolls for thee"

I've had 2 games with steam's spyware and I will never buy another again. It is a pain in the ass to load games, takes time and resources and doesn't work some of the time. Never again.

If you've played 4 you give it a 1. If this is your first Civ you give it an 8.

Have you ever heard of "figure of speech"?

Hang on where was the question "So John, the reception that Civ 5 got was below expectations. No one is playing multiplayer and the majority of users are either very upset with the poor job you did of it, or have given up playing after a week or 2. Do you feel you could have done a better job...

To answer the question.... Yes.

How old is this guy? 15?

Remind me not to buy Stardock games. Sound like a step down job to me. I see that Stardock is a 3 man company that is suffering from very disapointed customers who find the game uninteresting and poorly executed. Read the forums. Now they are getting a hard time for hiring Schafer. No-one steps...
