I also roleplay, although I don't see the game as opposed to that in any way.
I think adding in "human only features" is a terrible idea and would turn Civilization into something that's not. There should be no role-playing elements in the game for the sake of role-playing - it is a strategy game not a RPG. The game should not be everybody, only for those that love to play strategy games and they have made mistakes in the past when they tried to expand their audience to include non-strategy gamers. They can play CivRev instead. For Civ5, the gameplay is the thing and all work should be geared towards improving gameplay against opponents, including the diplomacy victory, getting the AI opponents to go for victories more effectively and for the various AI civilizations to use their attributes better.
One of the criticism of Civ5 is that when the AI played to win, the AI did not have a coherent personality. Right now the pendulum has probably swung a little too passive and it's even hurting personalities as the warmongers seem tamer. Though I did just put Ghengis in his place in the most recent game when he attacked and took two of my city state allies.
Do you like to play this game immersively?
I feel like creators of this game didn't care about people who like playing that T_T
I think people who play to build beautiful civilization and also role play are disappointed.
This game really support people who like to play to win but ignores people who want to play immersively
I thought tourism and world congress will make this game more immersive but they didn't
I would prefer that they don't break the game for some added flavor. This isn't SimCity.

I REALLY want to be able to stick labels on areas of the map for this reason, i would absolutely love it. While we're at it as well, i'd love it if they changed the way you name units so you're not just limited to doing it when they upgrade.
And some more interactive advisers would be nice too. Maybe with some actual gameplay function and influence over your empire. Then if you could kill them or promote them or whatever that would be even better, with game-lasting effects
I would just never be happier than if they simply added the ability to name tiles and groups of tiles with labels though. I would never stop playing then, and it might actually get me immersed enough to finish a game once in a while. I don't want number crunching, i want story and fantasy (made by myself)!
