Definitely. SMAC is still a classic.
But sometimes you want to also use your time using the more modern games. Using vanilla games can make newer games seem obsolete sometimes.

It is a half baked crumby cake.
I believe it is now the 4 year anniversary (+5 days) of the unmitigated debacle that was Civilization 5. Happy Birthday!
Has it stood the Test of Time? Sadly, it has not. It is a half baked crumby cake.
It does truly take the cake in this fashion, however:
Looks more like a lady's lap to me.
You curmudgeonly old farts need to get with the times, Civ V is great
I think that's my top complaint about Civ 5 is the mods just aren't as epic as what we saw with Civ 4, also I still can't believe how bland the textures look in 5 compared to the textures found in many Civ 4 mods.

Why should we? I have been a keen Civ player since Civ 1 and it distresses me to see what they are doing with the franchise :-(
LOL at people randomly complaining about a game they don't play four years after the fact. There comes a time when you really should just move on...
Agree completely. As fans of Civilization it is but natural for us to feel deeply about the subject. Why should we forget and move on? I have been playing Civilization since I was 11 years old(1992) both on PC and Amiga. We won't forget 2K, and I think for the majority of us we won't forgive either. Not until they produce a true sequel to IV that really can stand the test of time. IV certainly stood the test of time, and still does which is amazing really. And before someone begins with the worn argument "vanilla Civ IV and vanilla BTS was also not very good, worse than Civ V+expansions", let me say that it is Civ IV's modability that makes it shine so much (Civ V's moddability gets nowhere near it). That and of course the enormously dedicated community behind it.
