My friend and I are long-running fans of the series, and we have been loving the new game. The minute it unlocked on Steam, we started playing multiplayer. Our normal format is 2v2teams of 2 AI, and so far we have completed a Prince, King, and Emperor difficulty level game. The Emperor game has actually been the easiest so far, and we completed it in 131 turns starting from the Ancient Era.
We've both been kind of disappointed in the difficulty levels, and our last game started us wondering if the difficulty select is actually bugged. We are currently testing out a deity game to confirm our suspicions. My friend pointed out that if you mouse over happiness, it indicates the +9 bonus to happiness from "difficulty level" no matter what difficulty level you actually select (even on deity, its +9).
Have you guys noticed anything else that would indicate difficulty itself is bugged?
