Civ has simply reached the end of its life

[Slecht]

It's dead allright. Don't you see it with how they now charge $5 for a new civ?
There is no real love, only the money love. They didn't made this game because it was loved so much, but because it was so populair, and being afraid with making it harder it would sell less good.

Just look at take2, they destroyed my best pc game (myth, made by bungie) with making myth III: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_(series))

Myth and Myth II were developed and self-published by Bungie Software between 1997 and 1999. As a result of Bungie's sale to Microsoft in 2000, the company lost the franchise rights to Take 2 Interactive.[1] Myth III: The Wolf Age was developed by MumboJumbo and released by Take Two in 2001; it received generally good reviews, though many cited a number of bugs in the initial release.[2][3]

hmm sounds familiar..

Myth after or better said with the III part (really bad game), is no more... (it's like civ 5 in a way).



After that bungie was really busy making Halo on Mac and PC, then they got bought by Ms, only making halo sequels, Halo looked great, but when it became a console game, even when it's 1 of the best selling games, it's was no where as ambitious as they where planning, I didn't even borthered playing it, while I was really waiting for this game.

Or just another from take 2, mafia II, man what a boring game, nice graphics but super easy, they make games like a nice looking girl, which cost you allot of money but after you done her, you realise how cheap she was/is. And like civ they now charge money for expansions which are not really expansions, yes I bought the first expansion, how stupid I was!!! At least I'm wise enough now, not to touch anything made by take2.

Sarcasm, specially of the lower levels, does not belong to the set of civilized behaviours, yet you claim that you are civilized in another thread, brother... either, or...

I apologize if you were offended by my attempt at humor, but whole thread is one big joke. Meant in good humor. If I wanted biting, bitter, antagonistic sarcasm, I'd write it. This is meant as self-parody as much as anything else, not as an indictment of any specific opinion. I'm sorry you found it offensive.

I used to LOVE Gummi Bears. Love, love, LOVE them.

When I was 24, I bought a couple of packs. Opened one up, popped a tasty green bear in my mouth. BLECH! I spit it out. Tried a different flavor. Same thing!

What the...?

I was furious! They changed my Gummi Bears!!

I wrote the manufacterer a letter, demanding an explanation as to why my long time edible friends had changed!

I received my response about a month later, where they explained that they were using the same recipe that they had used over the last 15 years.

It made no sense to me. So I did some research and talked to a friend of mine in medical school.

Turns out that your taste buds change and evolve over time. It was me the entire time, not my precious Gummi Bears.

I'm 41, and now I eat JuJu Bees.

Well I can speak for the majority of the forumers, and say that CIV has died long before CIV5.

Civilization died in 1991 when CIV 1 was released. THE WORST SEQUEL EVER in the histerie of man kind!!!

And the OP is like the KING of trolism, and he really is! And the guy with a long response, EPIC hilarity

The OP is sarcastic but deadly serious I'm sure.

OMG u nailed it just too much!

 

[Anthropoid]

OMG u nailed it just too much!

Ah ha! So by this logic you no longer like ANYTHING you ever liked??

Just stop all this denial and admit: Div is Cead. We cannot bring it back by rationalizing how it was an unfortunate accident choking on a juju bean because the gummi bears had turned rancid from being left in your bottom drawer all those years.

 

[Jharii]

It doesn't mean that at all. It's not universal logic and does not apply to everything inclusively.

It means that at this point in time, I like Civ5.

Yea and he was talking about candy's..
As you can compare the 2, with that logic you should hate civ5 now.

EWWW! Necrophilia!?!

 

[Skwink]

OK, bye! We'll keep playing though.

 

[Slecht]

OK, bye! We'll keep playing though.

We 2, just with the previous Civ's.

But really I wonder who will last longer..

 

[Lone Wolf]

Yeah, this civ is dead, it's no more, it's an ex-civ. Here's another provocative euphemism for civ4 for ya: ex-civ.

 

[Thorite]

undead then? Zombie Civ? Brainless?

Hahaha! Love it! Zombie CiV!

 

[vandyr]

Just wait till Civ VI comes out, then we get to do all of this over again

 

[Slecht]

I never had this untill V came though. But yea lets wait and see.

 

[vandyr]

Then you weren't around for the release of Civ 4. And why would it be any different, because:

Civ 4 released with less content than Civ 3 had at the time.
Civ 4 released buggy and wasn't as polished as Civ 3 was at the time.
Civ 4 released with different mechanics than Civ 3 had at the time.

Any of that sound familiar?
Trust me...when the next installment of Civ hits the shelves, we'll go through all this crap again.

I was. Never had a problem with IV, III, II and I.

Me either! No problem with V either. I think you're suffering from selective memory. They all had problems, but nothing large enough to warrant large scale QQ.
