WellCould anybody answer these questions :-
Q) Could there be any reason u follow the religion of somebody instead of founding ur own ? Since there are 11 religions so it is quite possible that each civ will get one.
1. founding a religion will require getting and using a Great Prophet, who presumably can be used for something else
2. the other person may have gotten a religion first, and chosen a key Follower Belief that you want
3. Same religion may keep you on good terms with them.
I would imagine so.. apparently faith can be used for other purposes (Great people), so a 'secular' civilization might have the ability to use it for those Other purposes.Q) Would that be a choice to remain athiest or open minded in religion's choice & be competitive in game ? Religion could have a setback of making more foes (and friends ofcourse) so a conqueror might prefer to stay out of these religious conflicts. (Eg: Genghis Khan)
Well I imagine the late SPs would have the same "group" benefits that early religion would. But religion would still be there, and should still have an effect, particularly if you Dont take any of the 3 late SPs... although a "Piety civ" may conflict with the Rationalism Civs...Q) In real world there are still civs which prefer to stick to religion. So will that be sensible to invest further in religion later in the game rather than going for the late SPs. Obviously that would be roleplaying purpose, but I just want to be sure that nothing will be forced upon & the player will have other viable options.
Most of these questions are about roleplaying but some of these cover the gameplay aspects & as well freedom of choice for the player.
