wait 2 years for future titles to be sure of quality...
Not to sound like a tight-wad, but I'm seriously disappointed in this franchise since CIV 3 came out. I have been an avid player of the CIV franchise since the first game, and bought the 3rd installment the day it shipped to stores for $60 in the overrated LIMITED EDITION tin. (it was all they had) I was throughly disappointed in the product. It was shipped incomplete, with numerous bugs that required several patches, no multiplayer as was originally promised, and a SORRY modding kit. Then came Play the World. Finally, multiplayer as promised... which required another $30 to have. So the game was up to $90. Bugs, problems, more patches. Then they released the GOLD Edition with CIV3 and PtW. $40. Then comes Conquests a few months later. Great, more stuff! With ANOTHER $30 price tag. I feel sorry for those who shelled out the $40 for Gold Edition, only to have Conquests arrive with PtW included. That brings the total to $120. Thanks Firaxis. I'll remember to buy your games a few years after they come out from now on. That way I get the quality promised when all the bugs are ironed out. Everything included in PtW could have been in a patch, INCLUDING multiplayer, and Conquests should NEVER have had a $30 price tag. Ridiculous.
