Is Civ supposed to be fun? Because I'm just not getting it anymore. For me, the game has lost whatever fun it had. There's just nothing fun about playing the game when the AI gets so many advantages. There's just zero fun about it.
The game that caused this rant? Okay, I'll tell you. I'm playing Shaka, I get a good start and take a couple cities. I've got tons of units. So Askia declares war on me a couple times. I had a big army and was able to ward off his attacks.
But then he declares war AGAIN and comes at me with seamlessly infinite units. And I literally mean infinite. You kill a flock of Rifleman and Calvaries then 10 more come out of nowhere. It's just no fun playing against cheating AI.
This is a problem with the game. In every game, there's one Civ that seems to have infinite units who meanwhile has top science and builds all the latest wonders. It's just impossible to keep up. Impossible, I don't care what you guys say.
There's no way for me to have a million units, while being caught up in tech and at the same time building all the wonders.
It's just no fun for me. You're always behind in something. If you're ahead in Science, you're behind in units. If you're ahead in units, you're behind in Science. There's just no way to keep up with the AI cheating.
And that, is what takes all the fun out of the game.
