The editors didn't like
I have lost way too much sleep time playing it.
Mac version needs help
Still some AI glitches and multiplayer ‘roughness' needing a patch

New city-states feature is a double-edged sword
Games lack a sense of character
Some omissions from multiplayer hurt that experience.

Abstract: There’s only a few definites in this world: life is short, taxes are a pain in the ass and Sid Meier makes beautiful strategy games. That’s right, mark Civilization V down in the success column as Firaxis Games has delivered another stellar product th...
If you’re still reading, I hope that you haven’t gotten the impression that this game is horrible. It is not. Despite all its flaws, I still cannot tear myself away once I start playing. The bad news is that the game isn’t everything we fans wanted it...
First and foremost, as a newcomer, I was captivated almost immediately with this game. I mentioned earlier that it's a complex game overall, but despite that, it's easy to grasp, and after a couple of rounds, you will almost feel like a pro (that prob...
Abstract: As a virgin to the Civilization series, I was worried about having missed too much for me to easily induct myself into this series and enjoy myself. I was always too impatient in the past and just couldn’t accept the turn-based gameplay. So, is Civiliz...
