FYI, Civ VI has just been announced. The price for Civ 5 (and DLC) can only fall now.

Yeah but it usually takes two updates (which the publisher seems to call paid DLC?) before Civ games work properly so like 4-5 years yet.
Has it been cheaper than this before? Dunno, it's easily worth this price though.

It's currently £7.50 at CDKeys (using that Facebook 5% code) and has dropped as low as the £6 mark.

By the time you get through paypal fee addons (they all seem to do it) probably end up only slightly cheaper, I'd buy it straight through steam, less hassle (refund if your not satisified, p.s you're a fool if you don't)

Good for people with Steam credit I guess? But yeah, CDKeys is cheaper.

I usually use Kinguin, will have to nose on there first, seems the first one I seen with an upfront price. Cheers

The time it took you to reply to the comment included the time it took to do all those other tasks, unless you truly multitasked and did both in parallel on two computers using one arm for each - which would still likely not be as fast as doing one task with both arms :wink:

I got mine from green man gaming for £7, but that was a couple of months ago. £8.74 is still a good price.

Goodbye life, hello Civ V.

That is sooooo true. Just played a game at the hotel on a work night this week and, mid-battle, I realised it was 1:25am and that I'd not unpacked or anything and needed to get up 6am for work.
I hope in Civ VI they've fixed the annoying waits between turns - you should be able to set it to quick movement, quick combat and 2D view for AI turns if you want, else you can wait up to 2mins per turn on larger maps - painful

I'm sorry but they wouldn't be on Steam if they didn't run on modern machines.

This came out in 2010...? I'm not sure why you would say this might not run on modern PCs.

Even playing multiplayer (3-4 players )with the longest game mode, largest maps, max civs and city states and max players it doesn't take 2 mins a turn for me. May be on a slower machine?
There is quick movement and quick combat option in game (I think from release but may be wrong).

Hi - yes, I have quick movement and combat set on - though would prefer it if I could have it off for my own moves and on for the AI ones, to save time. The delay I experience is with single player, it seems constant even though I play on different machines, the best being core i7s with 12GB RAM.
It looks like Civ VI is a major departure for the series, could take some getting used to but at least after making everyone wait so long they've come up with something revolutionary.
