I remember in Civ 4, whenever I got around to having Future Tech, there was a happiness stats window (that shared the health stats, IIRC) and the reason stated for happiness from future tech was simply, "OH YEAH!"
That didn't seem too inspired. Will there be a more creative catchphrase/"reason" on V?
Well we don't know what benefits Future Tech gives, but hopefully it will be more specific when it is shown. (and also more significant.... I'd hope for a choice between a Free Social Policy, +X influence to all city-states, +X experience to all military units, or a Free Space Ship Part)
In a capitalist society the mother of invention is sales. Sales is driven by need and desire. A future technology, or any technology, really, is developed to fulfill a real or perceived need or desire.
"We want cheaper fabric"
"We need a cure for cancer"
"We want a way to communicate instantly over long distances"
"We need to attack potential enemies before they can attack us"
