I HATE HATE HATE having to fight in this game.
Other people might like it but I REALLY HATE IT.
I do everything in my power to try and avoid a fight. If I am forced to fight I fight to win. The AI gets so scared they try to surrender as soon as it looks like I might take one of their cities. I rolled over a city state by accident trying to get to some idiot who started a war with me for stupid religious reasons. He was the one trying to convert me. I was not doing anything. This was with Cleopatra too who is meant to be the most "loved" of all the CIV on THE EASIEST SETTING OF THE GAME.
And the AI is so broken they will start a fight with you for no reason even if they were best friends the turn before.
I nearly got rolled in one game and had to rebuild from my second city. Another CIV attacked me and I used a blocking strategy with mountains to take their city. Open borders gives me the horsehockys since they exploit it too much.
I tried playing as Ghandi and Spain decided to be a belligerent and attack me and I had to quit that game as I did not want to see Ghandi go down L They only attacked me as I had units stationed INSIDE MY OWN BORDERS when they were doing the exact same thing. Yeah, don’t leave war elephants undefended when you enemy has a barrage of archers to surround it.
I wouldn't even do the assassin quest line in Skyrim as I was upset by it. Every time my horse died I reloaded the game. Stupid game would spawn dragons on my fast travel and kill it anyway.
Even when I play other games I am like this.
I was never “bored” playing the other CIV games this way. CIV III I always played so I could get a science or a cultural victory. CIV II I would play the one game trying not to fight as much as possible. Have not really played enough of CIV IV and VI to judge. Have watched videos on Alpha Centuri and watched Beaglerush antagonise the aliens in a live stream of Beyond Earth after a bad day on XCOM due to beta 14 of Long War (was a while back.)
I wish the other CIVs would just leave me alone. I am happy to trade and do diplomacy with them.
The design decisions that went into this game are wrongheaded and not really fitting with the series.
There are OTHER GAMES you can play where you fight. THIS IS NOT THE GAME I WANTED TO DO THIS IN.
