I figured I'd rather ask the Civ 3 board first. Is Civ 4 really worth buying? Please, only those of youj that have played it respond.
Thanks.

taipei_lad said:Well, like a lot of questions here, the answer is: it depends. I have both games, and I like both, so there you are.
If you like Civ3 a lot, then sure, pick up Civ4. It's a different game, but once you get used to it, it's fun. If you love micromanagement, it's probably not for you.
One consideration though: if you want it, make sure your computer is up for it. Civ4 is a HUGE game, and it eats weaker computers for breakfast. The minimum specs on the box are a joke; you need much, much more to play Civ4.
Don't know if this helps, but it's the best I can give you.

That could be the deal-breaker, right there. You need a *decent* video card to play Civ4.Despair888 said:... and just has the random intel video card that came with the comp.
