  • will people play civ2 after civ4 comes out?

    yes I asked a similar thread in civ3.

    I'm just wondering how long this game can last. It has legs.

    People are still playing it now, so I don't see any reason why that would change with Civ4. Unless Civ4 really is brilliant...

    Then again, my computer probably won't be able to run Civ4 anyway, and I have no intention to upgrade my computer anytime soon. Certainly not just for Civ4.

      I seem to remember this question being asked when Civ3 was imminent - the answer remains, "Oh, Yes!"

        It depends how good Civ IV is.
        If the multiplayer is good, many may switch.

          But then that's for the multiplayer community anyway... There's still a vibrant creation community for Civ2 as well. And for that aspect it depends on how good the customisability of Civ4 is gonna be. Civ3 was a big disappointment there, but Civ4 is looking promising from what I've seen so far...

              Will always play civ 2. Might buy a new computer if civ 4 is good enough.

                I'll still play it once every few months.

                The game's graphics and modability are amazing... I have yet to see Civ II's Brilliance equaled in a TBS.

                  Civ IV looks more promising than Civ III, but Civ II will always be one of the few computer games I will continue to play and enjoy for many years to come.

                        I think I'll play Civ II, always addictive
                        ... and runable on an old configuration

                            Chess and Go have lasted a pretty long time. IMO Civ2 has what it takes to last quite a while, too. To me, Civ3 does not have the classical look or feel of Civ2 (I especially hate the cartoonish leader graphics). Don't know about Civ4 yet, but if it is just a complexification of Civ2, it will probably not pull me away.
