Civilization 3 is also $1 if anyone is interested.

Beware, 95% of your time will get sucked away!

Just one more turn.

I have played every iteration since the first came out and the VI has been the most disappointing so far. IV or V with their extensions are better.

Do you use any mods to enhance 5?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

No only all the extensions.

Slightly cheaper on other storefronts including Humble and Fanatical (depending on local pricing - e.g., US/USD Fanatical looks cheaper, AU/AUD, Humble is cheaper)

I'd never play it but might as well for 95% off

I was under the impression valve capped discounts at 90% off, is this just not enforced?

I think they'd have to pay me for me to consider playing it with those graphics.

And that's why AAA games are all shiny graphics with little to no gameplay underneath.

You don't have to look like an eye cancer causing toddler's game to have good gameplay. I doubt the graphics of Civ V caused the game to be somehow worse, especially since it is still within the top 100, we'll see whether VI can achieve that feat when it is as old as V.
