Wait, did Firaxis actually make a Civ game that was good from release? I was just going to wait for the first expansion.

I've only played a few hours, but so far yeah. Adding much more in expansions might make it too bloated if anything.

I picked it up quickly and played it all night. Then I started playing Doom which I'm having much more fun with surprisingly. I just feel like I'm playing a different civ 5, without some of the more annoying features. Instant build workers that disappear are nice, the added use of tiles in placing structures is kinda neat. Housing is kinda a bother, I'm not seeing any "residential" district. I guess people gotta live in their sweatshops.
Despite the added complexity it felt more streamlined over all. Plenty of future planning to do, but less minutiae to fiddle with it seemed.

Worth 60$ if you like civ, or just wait till it's on sale.
I'm gonna shoot demons now, I can't get stuck in a 6 hour video game today.

scythians are great cos you dont need horses for their Saka Horse Archer and it spawns 2 instead of 1

teddy r went hard in the paint to wipe me out
and i clung onto dear life, lost my capital, got it back, decced peace, decced war and he kept coming with like 8 captapults and at least a dozen heavy chariots and i kept shooting each one of them down with a bunch of archers

then slowly counterpushed into boston, st. louis and conquered washington

quote:

A little Cubs in Five trivia this morning. I wrote that song in '95. The music of the early 80s felt very distant at the time
So I namechecked a band who, I imagined -- knowing, at the time, nearly nothing about the music business -- had vanished into history
fast forward twenty-one years. in a development that still seems incredibly unlikely to me, we're on the Bowie tribute bill at Carnegie Hall
there's a band featuring Tony Visconti and Woody Woodmansey on the bill, too. They do Bowie tunes. Their singer, an amazing showman...
...happens to be @mrgregory. Peter and me are watching them light up the stage at @CityWineryNYC goin: "Who's the singer?"
Peter whips out his phone.
It's the dude from Heaven 17.
Baseball season hadn't started yet, but we'd already shared the stage with the singer from the band namechecked in the song.
As we're preparing to leave for tour from the hotel the next morning, there's @mrgregory in the lobby, relaxing...
...way more of a star than I could ever pretend to be, it just comes natural to him.
Back in the van, Peter -- who, recall, sings backing vocals on the original of Cubs in Five -- looks at me and I look at him
we're all a little exhausted from the events of the week and now headed out on tour
but we're both like
"THAT WAS THE DUDE FROM HEAVEN 17, DUDE. THAT WAS THE DUDE." the end.
