Thanks for your comments. Actually I was a bit startled that you find my arguments offensive, maybe it's because I am not a native english speaker?
Whatever, I think I isolated the main reason why I don't like BNW / 5 general as much as 4. I am a "war" kind of guy. And 5 seems very pacifist. It's more about managing your cities, happiness and economy than your armies and the logistics behind that. I still read many comments that pressing Next Turn so many times without doing else is something that not only I find irritating. That is actually not happening in 1, 2 or 4 because you need to manage much more cities and armies (didn't liked 3 btw and just played it for a vers brief time).
Maybe it's the difficulty level... I am only playing Monarch in IV as it is a pretty hard game. ^^ At least if you are not going for cheesy wins (Apo Palace comed to mind). Civ 5 seems way dumbed down in difficulty, maybe I should give Emperor a try.
