Does anyone have any opinions on Corruption and waste? Have they changed the flavour of Civ?
Many things have changed since Civ2, giving the game more dimensions of play, but ultimately i think the game still boils down to only two ways of winning when playing the huge map. Space Race and Cultural. Diplomatic vitory is a farce no matter what map size and my fave, Conquest is still there but it’s just not as fun. Not being able to put new cities where once stood large ones makes destruction pointless. Why wipe out the other civs nowadays? It’s not worth it… the land gain is of no use. So Conquest now is merely a side thing to do…
Corruption and waste has made the cities that far from the capital too hard to UTOPIAize, I will still go about and destroy the other civs. But now there will be huge tracts of railroaded land abound with no-one to populate it, even though my cities burst at the seams….
Some may say this is to make the game more “realistic”… nothing else is in the game is so what goes? I mean I love Civ3, as with the other Civs but man there should have been an option to turn off Corruption/Waste due to Distance… But alas this is not UTOPIA.
