      Ahhh, I misunderstood. That would necessitate hiring at least seven more voice actors, which for some reason Firaxis didn't want to do.

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      • Civ:BE strikes me as something that was produced on a shoestring budget.

        • i'm pretty impressed with how nice the game looks. the fine detail is pretty sharp.

            It really depends upon map type and size for that, IMO. A giant island map would be hard to pull that off.

              Agree.

              It's a shame the late game is a chore.

                  VO is surprisingly expensive, even if you're using no-name actors.

                    Yeah, that confuses me as well. It's like they didn't pack a single high-school science textbook.
                    If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

                      • and in other civs, you moved your tiles around a map... maybe 1000 years before map making

                        those things are more just for fun rather than legitimate gripes, as far as i'm concerned

                          i wouldn't know. i'm pretty sure they're still paying on the loans they took out to get Nimoy.

                          which is unfortunate, because i think the only way to top Leonard Nimoy would be to convince Patrick Stewart to do a voiceover.

                            They made some sort of attempt at an explanation there, in that the whole expedition fell apart and they had to build up the infrastructure, etc.

                            • Words cannot express how much I can't ****ing stand 1upt. I'm already sick of this game because combat and balance are a huge ****ing god damn awful mess. al;kjsdf;lkajsdfl;kajsd;lfkjasf.

                              Give me back civ iv. **** you jon shafer, you're an idiot asshole.

                              *Goes back to stacks of doom, where combat makes sense and is fun*

                              EDIT: I'm probably gonna come back to it in a couple days when I take another day off from my neverending stream of homework, but I am actually really annoyed at 1upt...it kills the balance imo in a way that is not fixable.
