Even the supposedly bad AI of Civ V is very much able to kick my rear end, and as soon as I meet all of world leaders the most likely try to band up and kick my rear end, which is karma in action, me being a bad and murdering neighbour, but I'd really like it if they improved your units' AI, particularly pathfinding and workers build order. I don't know if it's that hard or have the players just gotten used to the micromanaging, but having my AI worker stop building a road because it would have to avoid an unit that's located a few turns away or trying to take the shortest path and deciding to embark and disembark in the process, thus making it take a longer one is always a surprise and a really unpleasant one.

Also, I could have just missed it, but not only being able to automate workers without being able to prioritize improvement of certain type and being a subject to AI's whim is a pain. Sometimes it turns out okay, since some buildings do receive bonuses from Policies or Tech, but I doubt they take that into account. I'd like to be able to just tell the AI "build farms here, build trading posts there, build mines there etc.", maybe even as a global option that I can change. But preferably a localized one, since I'd probably forget that I had set something special up.

For those whom I may concern, Civ5 complete edition is currently 75% off on GOG.

It's actually Civ4 and 3, but thanks for the information anyway, I much prefer games bought from them to the Steam's ones, so I bought it again.

You're aware that you can connect your Steam account to GOG and get DRM-free versions of (almost) everything that both services carry, right?

I wasn't aware of that, but it's too late now anyway. I might make use of that in the future, so thanks!
