Is this even feasible anymore? It seems like every turn I am being punished for going to war. Wold Congress sanction this, no trade that, that this. you we will all ally against you and send a never ending tide of units at you. Science penalty this. I am doing it, but onyl barely and it feels like I am just a few turns before having my navies and armies smashed.
I feel taking gold away from river tiles has hindered the gameplay and crippled one of the few good things Civ 5 had over its predecessors, that it was more lightweight, easier to teach, and quicker to play. The game hasn't added any NEW mechanics to award us with, but simply taken away and made it more complicated and frustrating. I think for the first time in the history of a long time I'm going to have to not give a Civilization expansion a good review. I have never had my joy for playing a game so thoroughly crushed as by this update.
Is there any way I can GET RID OF Brave New World and install Gods and Kings? For me, and all of my friends sanity. It's just not fun with these additions.
The war gameplay has seriously become tedious, boring, slow, and punished. Smaller empires being rewarded big time. I feel like I just got kicked in the face for no good reason.
Everyone and every city state is now at war with me in my game. I have to go and conquer the second continent. I don't think I will accomplish this as Polyneisa is in the atomic era and got the manhatten project. He is also in complete control of world congress since he met everyone and made them friends. He has had 14 delegates since it was founded and is unable to be ousted.
Meanwhile I am struggling to make any progress in the tech tree and am stuck in the middle of modern. Every other AI is beginning to outpace me in science. This is ridiculously stupid.
Edit
I can't even get any happiness due to there being no way to trade for luxury resources and I am usually around -2 to -20
