An Early Look At Civilization V

Posted by Soulskill on from the new-and-shiny dept.

c0mpliant writes "IGN and Gamespot have each released a preview of the recently announced and eagerly awaited Civilization V. Apart from the obvious new hexagon shape of tiles and improved graphics, the articles go on to outline some of the major changes in the game, such as updated AI, new 'flavors' to world leaders, and a potentially game-changing, one-unit-per-tile system. No more will the stack of doom come to your city's doorsteps. Some features which will not be returning are religion and espionage. The removal of these two have sparked a frenzy of discussion on fan-related forums."

    I have no trouble imagining that religion will still be around hundreds of years from now but I am offended by your use of Star Wars as an example of sci-fi with religions in it, Star Wars is to sci-fi as watching a counter strike match is to professional sports.
