I'm really happy with this game so far. I can honestly say its a big improvement in all ways from the oh-so-beloved Medieval 2/ Rome 1. I bought Empire at launch and it gave me a pretty sour taste for newer total war games- which is probably why I waited over 10 years to buy this one - but I'm glad I did because whatever issues it may have had have clearly been worked out. This is an awesome game with a ridiculous amount of content, history and replayability. Its a nice balance between accesibility and depth. I highly recommend it.

This game is a buggy mess that I will always love and return to. The scope of this game is insane. The campaign is addicting and packed with content and its always interesting to try new factions and learn all the new units, buildings etc. Unfortunately it has some fairly game breaking bugs/ flaws. A lot the sieges are just down right broken. The AI is not very challenging in general and on very hard it will just spam you will stacked militia armies which is not very fun but very tedious. Also - and this is not a bug - once you have 10+ cities there starts to be a major snowball effect where no one can stand in your way and the game basically loses all balance. I always wished that there would be an AI faction that grew to be as big and powerful as the player so that there could be a huge war at the end of the game. It sometimes happens but its pretty rare.

Despite all its flaws I still love it though. It has a lot of charm and I highly recommend it

Civ V is an excellent game, all in all, and I love it. However, it has major flaws that make the game unplayable in the end.

After a few complete play-throughs I started to notice that, at a certain point, the AI reaches what I have come to call the "wall of derp" - Sometime in the late middle ages/ early industrial era the AI shows its true colors; that it is a complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥. The result is that the exciting, interesting, AMAZING early game suddenly turns into a giant, tedious chore of grinding through the late game and its many demanding, complex, click intensive, features (which would all be amazing if the AI were competent enough to use them).

The early game contains some of the best video game experiences I have ever had. Its friggen amazing. It has you building a small civilization, exploring, discovering a big wide world as you secure your own little empire. In the early game the AI is excellent; it makes very logical, reasonable decisions that make you feel like you are faced with worthy challengers and its just plain fun.

In the late game pretty much everything goes to sh*t. After everyone has settled their core cities and established a basic infrastructure, your strategy as a player must and adapt to the changing circumstances of the globe. The AI does not adapt at all; instead it goes into ultimate derp mode and all of the fun disappears, vanishes out thin air, and it usually takes me about 5, in the early industrial era, to realize that my awesome plan for global dominance has just lost all of its appeal because its no fun when your opponents suck; its just a chore, and thats not what I play games.

Specifically, the AI will arbitrarily declare war, invade you lands with 10 units and then...sit there and get shot to bits by your cities. And then, when its army is decimated it will contact you and offer terms of peace- and give you a city or two. Utterly nonsensical. Thats just one example of the AI's extremely derpy late game behavior.

Some people say you just need to up the difficulty level. Personally, I dont think that helps at all. It just makes the derpy AI way OP. It doenst make it more fun.

I love the game, and I want to love it even more, but after playing it for a long time I find myself putting it down in dissapointment and frustration. Harsh, I know, but true.

A huge letdown. The Chinese room stripped Amnesia TTD of all its good features and turned it into a linear piece of crap.
