There's even more "situational" civs as well, i.e. Oh and did I just mention trade? Trade routes have made a return to Civ V and just like Civ II, you can build caravans that contribute production to other cities (not as overpowered as the ones in Civ II though where you can stockpile them to rush wonders). In fact, the expansion discourages warmongering as the AI will take note of your aggressive nature and conquering city states means less lucrative trade partners. The expansion has definitely made it more enjoyable to go for a cultural or diplomatic victory. Especially if you're not the sort to automatically go for a domination victory every time. I'm happy to say that the gameplay has improved quite considerably over the original version and even Gods & Kings. In fact, Brave New World might be considered even better thanks to the revamp of culture and the introduction of Great Artists, Great Writers and Great Musicians.
No two games will ever be the same which means plenty of new experiences to last you for awhile.
Civilization v brave new world great music series#
Nothing has really changed here in that the Civilization series is a great series when it comes to generation of "war stories". For consistency in comparing this review with my Civilization V review I've decided to retain it. It's interesting since in my old scoring system I included Plot as an element to every game review, even if it really wasn't a consideration. vanilla, Gods & Kings and Brave New World). I can only make an estimate since the 347 hours that Steam lists me as investing actually counts for all versions of Civ V (i.e. There are even some major changes over Gods & Kings, Civ V's first expansion pack - and that (re)introduced the major concepts of religion and espionage.Īnyway, I've played approximately 20 hours with Brave New World, mostly multiplayer. Brave New World was released about three years after vanilla Civ V and the differences are considerable, to the point you'd be excused if you thought they were entirely different games. Unlike the breakneck pace that some EA titles are released *cough* Battlefield *cough*, Firaxis takes a bit more time and care into their titles. It's been a long time since I reviewed Civilization V. Time played: Estimated at 20 hours (347 hours Civilization V total).It mostly looks the same to vanilla Civ V but there are differences, mostly under the game mechanics hood
