Did you actually win to turn 750 or did you lose to religion and forget to check that tab?

Already uninstalled.

Religious victory is a dumb condition, if you don't found a religion or get converted by an AI going for it it's basically impossible to stop them short of conquering that player

There should be a smug atheist great person you can get to battle religious victories regardless of your civ's religion status

The religious victory is definitely the one that deserves the biggest overhaul IMO. Can you turn it off yet? I know victory conditions were togglable in most Civ games, but I can't remember if it usually comes with launch. I always turn the Win by Turns one off, even though, realistically, you always win before you get there, because it would be really unsatisfying.

Civ 4 isn't all that great, and the people who worship it just didn't bother to give a fully updated Civ 5 a try.

idk i played a game of modded Civ4 and a game of modded Civ5 before 6 game out and I think I still prefer 4, although i do think 5 catches a lot of undeserved flak

you can turn it off, it's an advanced setting on the game creation screen iirc

dunno how you guys are having so many issues though i played 2 games and paid 0 attention to religion and won a science victory both times... i'm only on one of the middling difficulties though i guess

That would be a good mod. You could have Dick Dawkins raging on twitter or Amazing Atheist stick a banana up his rear end

I will buy this video game once I am sick of BF1. Unless COD is really good or Planet Coaster gets good reviews.

I put 500 hours into Civ 5 and think Civ 4 is still the best game of the series

That's good. I don't think it's something you have to watch out for unless you're playing on the higher difficulty settings and playing against a religious-oriented Civ. In that case, I do think the AI is likely to unit spam its way to victory. It's get fixed in the first expansion, and until then, I think I'd sort of prefer to turn it off.

yeah, same. Civ 5 isn't bad, Civ 4 just was really good at hitting the sweet spot for level of complication. I think Civ 6 has potential once the inevitable patches and expansions are out, though. :)
