Inheriting Civilization V’s Brave New World, One Trade At A Time
I’d like to think I’m a people person. I might not agree with 75 per cent of what other people say or think or believe, but I get along. It’s what I do. In today’s society it works, for the most part. In Civilization V it didn’t, at least not until now. It’s a Brave New World, and I almost conquered it with commerce.

Gods & Kings ‘Fixes’ Civilization V (If You Think It Needed Fixing)
I appear to be one of a rare breed of person who, on the internet at least, is proud to have enjoyed civilisation V.

Ever since playing a preview of the upcoming Civilization V expansion a few weeks ago I’ve been, as I predicted, sucked into the game.

I Lost Sleep Waging Holy War In The New Civilization V
So, I have to be honest: I’ve spent two years avoiding Civilization V on purpose. It’s not that I have anything against the evolution of city-states into empires, or that I find resource-gathering, diplomacy,and warfare uninteresting. In fact, it’s exactly the opposite: I am deeply, painfully susceptible to the classic Civ player crisis of, “Just… one more… turn!” There’s a great wide hex-gridded world out there, and I have to be responsible for all of it.
