My opinion of Civ IV

I never said that those people weren't trolls, you just assumed it-and you know what you do when you assume? You make an ASS out of U and ME :mischief:. Seriously though, to be fair, not all of them WERE trolling, as they were merely stating the fact that they did not like the game-which they are free to do. It was only when 10-12 other threads turned up pretty much stating the same thing-often by people who signed up to CFC just to say it-that it became a 'trolling' issue. Also, who said I was still at school, or had just finished school? This is yet another assumption that was dead wrong. Given your penchant for inaccuracy, therefore, I might suggest that your views of the game are equally inaccurate. Doesn't prevent you from holding these views, however, or expressing them here-but it just seems silly to start a brand new thread every time someone decides to take a dislike to the game, as it pushes more valid and interesting threads down towards the second page where myself and others can't read them :(. Anyway, I have nothing more to add in this matter, so I will stop posting in hopes that your thread will make the slow, inevitable drift into 2nd and 3rd page oblivion :p.

Yours,
Aussie_Lurker.

Am I the only person who thinks Civ IV is the Edsel of games and a complete rip-off?
Its screen appearance reminds me of cheap Xmas wrapping paper and it proceeds at the pace of cold molasses.
The manual is as cheap as they could make it, almost unreadable.
A complete waste of money.

I am waiting on my copy which has been promised to me as a christmas gift. If you don't want yours I'd be happy to take it off your hands. I'll even pay the postage from NSW to QLD.


(note I am 33 yrs old and still have to *wait* until christmas. aahh! :cry: )

edit: NSW to QLD not SA to QLD

What are you talking about.
I think the appearance is ugly and garish. with the dead black screen.
I said the game was very slow [on a 3ghz machine with 1 gig memory]
i said the manual is cheap, the thumbnails which purport to tell one what to do are unreadable.
I said it was a price rip-off.
How much more specific?
And it is not a troll, it is a legitimate opinion. Or is the forum reserved for sycophants?
Like I said... can you be more SPECIFIC... on second thought, if you dont like CIV4 than find a different game to play and leave this forum ;)

PS. Price rip-off? its priced just as high as any other computer game.

I totally disagree. I think all the new additions are awsom. mine ran fine after I got more memory
 
Oh gee, Kevin, what an AMAZING wit you have!! How many days did it take you to think up that amazing one-liner :mischief:. Geez, you truly are sooo pathetic. If you can't think of a genuinely good comeback, then might I suggest you don't bother at all.
 
Ah, what would a forum be without trolls camouflaging as troll critics? Wonderful. And, ah, the world is so easy, it seems: He who has an opinion differing from mine and daring to voice it in a place where I don't like it must be a troll. Aha.

Actually, while I find the way of expression of the OP lacking, we all know that he is absolutely not alone in his criticism. If anybody finds this disturbing, annoying or simply boring, everyone is free to ignore it and let the thread sink down into oblivion. Strangely enough, the very persons flaming a poster for his thread are the same who help the thread staying on top...
