GamersGate is doing a 75%-off sale for all Civilization V products.  I'm kinda tempted.

I am seeing some bundles for Europa Universalis III and IV.  I am in a bit of a gaming funk right now and am not really playing anything that excites me (I STILL haven't upgraded my home computer with a good graphics card).

Oh, and credit goes to Steelgrave for noticing that Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes is currently 75% off for $9.99 on Steam.  8)

Like I said, I am tempted.  The problem is that I don't even time to play the games I already have!  Where/how am I going to find time for this one as well??!  Gah!

Martok, you don't own/play Civ 5!?  :o

[Gusington]

I can't believe that either!

[Martok]

Nope. 

And believe me, I'm well aware of how bizarre it is.  I, who am such a self-proclaimed grand-strategy nut, hadn't even played a single minute of the series until I purchased Civ IV, and even that one I've not played nearly as much as I ought (or would like) to have thus far. 


But then, I tend to somehow end up bypassing the great/classic games in the strategy genres.  You all know how I especially love space-strategy titles, yet the first Master of Orion game I actually played was (unfortunately) MOO3; I didn't actually play MOO2 (which is generally still considered the genre's "gold standard") til almost a good decade after it was released, and I was never enthralled with it the way most folks were.  <puzzled shrug>  That's just how I roll, I guess. 

[Gusington]

Freak.

[Martok]

You say that like it's news to me.  :P

Please tell me you've played the Star Trek mod for it at least!  :o

Never got around to mods yet, sorry.  :-[

And when has this attempt at an "excuse" worked for any of use??  :))

[Nefaro]

That's okay, Martok.

I never played Civ campaigns very long.  I find them interesting at first but it gets kinda bland after a bit and I stop playing. 

For some reason, I still keep buying all the DLC when they go on a decent sale.  But I never get terribly far into any campaign I start.  ???

Well it *does* work for me to an extent.  Else I'd have purchased even more games over the last several years than I already have!  :P

But...but...it's a Star Trek mod! Star Trek, Martok!
In all seriousness it's actually a very good mod. If you ever manage the time I do highly recommend it. It's no BotF (what is?) but it is fun for a while. Now go wash your hands and buy Civ5.

That's okay, Martok.

Nefaro, report to the principal's office at once.  >:(

[JasonPratt]

I can go one better than that: I've never once played ANY version of Civ (unless MoM itself counts, which technically it doesn't).

I do own the later Civs, however; and most of the DLC for Civ5 (CivV?), so I picked up the spares from GG (after making sure they were Steam keys).
