Is there too much desert in Civilization?

Yes

One thing im guessing isnt factored in-the amount of 'desert' has increased, the biggest example is the Fertile Crescent, which used to be a huge breadbasket area, now reduced to arid ground because the area was deforested.

You can turn down desertification, i cut it by 1\3. Its in a py file for land generation

Now that would be a good addition to Civ. If you chop a forest, there's a % chance it gets turned to a desert.
