Hello all.
On Friday, I picked up Civ 5 Complete Edition on the great Steam sale. I have long heard about this game from various other games I play and was always intrigued but never pulled the trigger. Paying $17 for Civ 5, both expansions and all DLC seemed like a no brainer to try.
Well, I had family plans Friday night and all day Saturday so I downloaded and installed Friday and waited until Sunday evening to jump in. I started playing around 8pm ET and before I knew it, it was 11:15pm. I did not even realize three hours had passed.
Being new to the game, I'm sure I'm making a TON of mistakes and will certainly learn from them. From what I have read, starting with America might not have been my best decision. I'll continue on for a bit and see what happens, I have certainly wasted more time on other things before blowing it up.
Are there any particular threads that a brand new player should peruse to gain a better understanding of the game?
FYI, I am more of a lurker than poster and will probably have a ton of questions. I hope to not offend anyone with what some will consider very basic questions but I truly want to understand and enjoy the entire game. Thanks in advance, and apologies....lol
