    Civilization V - Brave new world

    So I was always a fan of civ 5 + Gods and Kings. Lately during the xmas steam sales I got the rest of the content (Brave new world + remaining civ+map packs) and I really got into this game again.

    I love brave new world, so far I play at King difficulty on mostly 6-12 player size maps (raging barbarians/random leaders). Will move up to Emperor difficulty soon.

    I love both the random maps and the new "scrambled continents" which are basicly pre-set outlines of earth/europe/africa etc. with random inner tiles.

    New culture system is interesting and you cannot neglect tourism, else you'd get mega-unhappiness with different ideologies. New social policy system is also more interesting, more policies more diversity.

    The new AI is less agressive & more predictable (even tho they still have backstabbers or warmonger haters) they still can't really outsmart a human player in military tactics though.

    Anyone else into this game?

    i played it a fair ammount, got like 70h of playtime didn't play any civ games before this

    played on king, tried emperor a few times but it just felt like cheaty ai

    i liked europa universalis4 more , got over 240h in it and still growing
    the diplomacy is more fleshed out, i find it rather poor in bnw
    and it is historical "plausible" gameplay
