MORE MORGAN FANSERVICEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! Please.

The person who wanted Fall From Heaven II- the creator now makes his own games over at Stardock and is in charge of Legendary Heroes series. Civ V couldn't handle FFH anyways due to poor AI and garbage modding tools.

..... Shit! Gandhi nuked me!

Btw, that's not facial hair, that's "short hair"

Stop ruining my favorite character Jo.

I liked Civ V a hell of a lot more than I did CiV IV.

It's true that a lot of the movies and screens were removed from Civ V, but from what I saw, that means they could focus more on making the strategies involved much more interesting.

he's guilty for fanservice overdose? No, he's guilty for not bringing engie-tan back.

continuation of the worse aspects

No random events
Worse scenarios
Annoying upkeep on just about EVERYTHING
Happiness is a pain to deal with
OP submarines

Civ 5 has a number of things that are better and some worse.

Better:

Actual resources management
Much more interesting ways (and bonus) for civics
Spying is better
No freaking global warming
unit stacking isn't existing
Better AI

Worse:

A lot of resources are useless/near useless

Considering that I started the series by playing IV, I admit it may be weird for me to say that I prefer V better. Granted that vanilla V feels a bit empty compared to the entirety of IV and its expansions, I think that V's expansions (especially Brave New World) makes up for it. But both are fun.

Jo, are you looking forward to the new alpha centauri, too?

Civ 5 does seem a bit dulled down for the simple minded at times.
I miss the times of civ 3 and earlier. The less cartoony graphics and more complicated moves made it a lot of fun.

Civ 4 is the real thing.
The wonder movies, the clear graphs and charts, the sublime diplomacy and trading interfaces, an actually working Civilopedia, workers actions gave only bonuses and never penalties, etc.
All I needed was buying the original Civ 4 and Beyond the Sword. I hate DLCs.

Also, i would love to see Rey's and Fall from Civilization and Fall from Heaven II ported to Civ 5

there are plenty of good stuff in both Civ4 and Civ5 that i would love to see mixed up together... the one unit per tile and the hex grid in civ5, for example, was a great inovation, and the ability to mod civ4 is way better than in civ5.

It´s like my marriage... non-perverted games....

I approve of this idea of Morgan in this outfit.

I honestly prefer Europa Universalis IV over Civ V. It is way more challenging and interesting for me, but of course that's all personal opinion.

@Nerf NOW!!: & @Violence Jack:
Yeah, there is the GoG-version which works, but my MoO2 is the original from back then (I'm old T.T ) and I run it using DOSBox on my Win7 computer, so that works just fine as well.

Clone24, A5PECT, and ZeronicRaiden already got all the good photonotes.

Jo, MOO 1, 2 and 3 are obtainable in GoG for $5.99 in bundle and work in any computer (like all GoG games) you should check their site Gog(dot)com

I just notice that nerfnow cover in hiveworks is still Engie.

[url=#user_comment_349677]@LuckyLuigi[/url]: I love Alpha Centauri lore and theme, but I think Civ IV has better mechanics and a more modern engine. In the end, I go with the one which plays better. I like both though.

Great comic, Jo.

Hard choice between Alpha Centauri and Civ 4. Don't make me choose !

[url=#user_comment_349669]@NONE[/url]: I don't mind the unit stacking. I do mind how the computer seen able to generate infinite units every turn on their capital. Also, the micromanagement of a large empire can get overwhelming sometimes.

[url=#user_comment_349669]@NONE[/url]: I don't mind the stacks. I do, however, feel overwhelmed by the micromanagement of a large empire. I need to name my cities "War Factory" and "Money Bank" to keep track of stuff. I also dislike how the computer seen able to generate infinite troops at will sometimes.

For me Civ5 is the one. The main thing that keeps me away from older civs is the unit stacking. Boy that thing is just horrible. Other than that i really like change from squares hexes and mechanic improvements. True it may have less small details but they dont change the game. Mechanics do.

[url=#user_comment_349666]@xeyos[/url]: I don't think Civ being snowballer is a bad thing. It's like saying Archers fortified behind walls is too strong. It's just how it worked in real life.

Agree with u Jo, even when civ5 is clearly better (less predictable and snowbaler xD) it is made to win some extra money. I can accept a sequel lacking the basis of his prequel, such as religion being sold on an expansion :S

[url=#user_comment_349652]@Narf[/url]: Can it even run on today's computers??

Master of Orion 2 or go home.
