    I haven't played Civ 4 or 5, mostly because I thought Civ 3 was horrible.

    Civ 2 is an awesome game though.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I never got into Civ III from what little I played into it when my dad bought the game. So I went on a long hiatus away from playing Civilization. It's only recently when Pike brought back my interest into Civ that I bought myself Civ IV (complete set) this year. I might try out Civ V since it looks really good, but Civ IV is really good and is better than Civ II, which was like my favorite Civ game.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Update: I still have not gone to war with the Goblins, but it is now imminent. The both of us were at war with the Humans. I did most of the work. Then the Goblins walked right in on the very last city I had just spent my time raping, and now the smurfing credit is theirs for destroying the Humans. I smurfing hate the Goblins.

    It is agame of strategy and action. Choice and consequence. Good and evil. War and dpeace. Science and art. Life and death. Rise and fall.

    I'm actually being serious. It is all of those things.

    I love playing Civ IV! Danielle and I play it together over LAN, and it's great fun. But I will happily concede I'm useless on the medium to high difficulties. I think we're far too interested in exploring the world and building wonders to bother with challenging gameplay. I can't remember the ranks off the top of my head, but I think we use the third easiest one when playing on the same team. It's almost like cheating, but we don't care, because exploreexploreexplore! Once we have discovered the world and need to go to war, Danielle generally gets bored. I only get bored when I know that the rest of the world domination is nothing short of a formality.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    Having fun is the important part. Whilst I can hack it on the higher difficulties I very rarely play on them, for precisely the same reason - I just want to derp around building my empire and teching.

    Just got Gods & Kings on a whim and...

    I like it. Quite a bit. The new civs are fun and the AI is immensely improved, as I feel my attempts at diplomacy actually pay off. Civs actually have a reason to decalre war now. The new customizable religions add a new layer of depth, giving interesting bonuses to the gameplay. Also, espionage is incredibly useful as it's very detail and serves as a new way of interempire dynamics.

    I like it. It immensely improves the Civ V experience for me.

    Yeah but the 1UPT remains a problem... still, maybe I'll give it a look if it's cheap at some point.

    Search for FreeCiv. It's not the exact same as Civ 2 but it's a very good clone.

    As for legit Civ 2, I'm sure you can find it somewhere.
