| It's so maddening because it's basically to me what Civ2 was for you: a strategy game with glaring flaws that kill its chance at best game ever, but a bunch of great elements that make you unable to enjoy "better" games.
I just can't go back to Civ or Alpha Centauri and having to manage every individual city moving around armies one square at a time. Have everything produced at my capital! Taking territories simply gives my capital more resources! Armies move around territories on a Risk board! Leave only the fun part of city development: roads and improvements! Extra maddening is the sequel fixing the most glaring flaws of the original while creating new ones that put it in the same situation. Original: +Charm +Color +Economy -Overpowered amphibious landings -AI gangup coupled with cheating -Mobile artillery the only unit worth getting Sequel: +Amphibious landings fixed +New World mechanic fixes early gangup -Charm gone -Muddy brown -Economy completely broken mid to late game -Forts are way too cheap for making your territory impossible to attack. |
