It really comes to a point where you know you will win... I know this has been said a million times, but I like the first 2/3 of the game more where you have to really think what the next best move it, instead of what is the fastest way to end the game moves...
Sure, but then, ten percent submitted their *Settler* wins. I would expect at least that crowd to submit their Deity wins as well if the game was so easy. I mean, I *think* it's easy too, but I've been playing Civ games that were much harder. I'm just thinking there is a disconnect between experienced Civ players and the much larger market of normal people who didn't memorize every single detail about Civ IV to be able to win on Deity.
I've seen people bring up the layoff news from earlier this year as if to say that it's no wonder the game is bad if they fired all those QA people. But I think you gotta ask yourself if that may have been caused by the games not being appealing to a large enough audience in the first place, and if Civ V is *maybe* not easy because they did lay off those people, but rather because they *had* to lay off those people...
