Does Civ3 need more sex appeal?

I mean Civ2 had some steamy stuff!
-The foreign advisor
-The Babylonian emmisary
-heck...even the spy

For the "other side of the street", the trade and science advisor looked like they were interested in a walk on the wild side.

Civ3 seems pretty bland. Don't Sid and the boys know that sex sells?

[campmajor!]

They probably felt that it would take you too much out of the game, like they felt about the Wonder movies!

One could loose his concentration when the Foreign advisor says that she will sink her hooks into the hearts of other nations....

Call it what you will, "sex appeal" or whatever, Civ 3 could definitely benefit from those intimate details that "pull you into the moment". The suspension of disbelief, IMHO, is better than it was in SMAC, but still not as good as in Civ 2. Having said that, I will quickly add that noone can have my copy of Civ 3! I am enjoying it far too much!

So Civ III should contain porn according to some of you? Newbie humour? Apparently yes.

I would like to take the time to point out that the creation of this frivolous thread discredits GP and invalidates any serious arguments he may have made in other threads.. especially his stance on combat.

This is actually GP's thread... I don't think he qualifies as a Newbie.

Civ 2's Egyptian Ambassador.....................

Nuf said.

[The Andy-Man]

i am all for nudy ladies in civ.

Somebody should make a mod pack replacing all the advisors with attractive ladies, mmmmmm.

I remember now, me when i was 10, just HOPING the Egyptians wanted to see me, ooooo how i luved playing civ2 when nobody was in the house :P

GP - Are you a total f*cking geek, or what?

A perfect example of how civ3 was dumbed down for the masses, yet obviously not enough (for some). You're the reason civ3 was cheapened. Go get laid, have a nice day.

[Ozymandous]

Looks like someone missed the humor in this thread.

Hint for yah Z, take the stick out, you'll be a lot more comfortable when you're sitting at your PC playing the game.

Unless of course that's your thing.
