Hi everyone,
What do you think what is the worst and the most useless technology?
In my opinion it's Scientific Method. Mostly it just obsoletes some really nice wonders like The Parthenon and Great Library and also the 10% bonus from monasteries. In contrary to its name, it actually causes a setback in scientific research.
The only good thing it does is that it reveals oil. Just reveals, nothing more. It cannot be used until Combustion. That's the reason (in addition to the research setback) I always go all the way down to Combustion in the tech tree until there aren't any other industrial techs available but Scientific Method.
