After wasting what i would call a long month on it….
I would call it fair… Civ 4 while is better and worse than civ 3 which rocked out … for every point they added to the game i feel they took one away… Its a little too graphic heavy IMHO… i mean its civ… has it ever looked good? hence longer loads between turns… so not worth it…
The multi caliber political system… while it looks more complicated and more involved … ahh i feel its rather bah after i played a few times…
the effects of land bonuses… ahh i simply think they over did it this game… ahh but it does add to being able to trade with your neighbor…
The AI well its still cracked out … so that’s the same…
anyway those are my humble opinions on the game… At least they didn’t go Masters of Orion 3 on it and ruin a good title… gawd that blew…
