I've just returned to Civ5 after about 4 years of taking a break (because the game was neither fun nor challenging at the time), because some people have assured me that it's now much better. I have all DLC available on Steam.
How much has changed? I remember (rather fondly) how I won a game with Egypt having just one city and building literally every Wonder in the game on Monarch or King. I tried that again and failed miserably - I am way behind technologically and there isn't a hope I will ever get to build a Wonder again, the AI usually have the Wonder finished before I have the Tech I need for the Wonder.
Is playing with just one city (tall game) no longer a valid strategy for Cultural Victory, but rather a challenge (i.e. handicap)? That'd be a shame!
