>>509409259>>509409299>>509409448I only just started playing Civ 3 for the first time a few days ago, i'd always heard it was shit compared to Civ 2/4/5 etc but I figured i'd give it a crack anyway whilst i'm off work with a fucked hand and its like 2 bucks on steam, plus I've played 4 and it's mods to death and I hate the later ones. I'm not sure if it's the sheer scale (vanilla maps are way bigger than any other civ, modded it's insane), the aesthetic, the top tier historical conquest campaigns or soundtrack, but civ 3 is great and the modding scene is absolutely insane.
>>509409794The Civ 3 fantasy mods are sweet, haven't tried Conquests of Might and Magic III yet because it fully overhauls your install, but i've played a few games of Master of Myrror Fantasy, Warhammer Fantasy 2.5, Tides of Crimson and Dungeons & Dragons: Mystara. All top notch alternatives to Fall From Heaven 2 for Civ 4 and Tides of Crimson is still being actively worked on which is wild.
>>509410605Nice, Civ 3's 32bit limitations are about it's only downside from what I can see. She be chugging late game on big maps with lots of civs.
>>509410131It'll be even worse than that, with GTA Online a lot started getting farmed out to jeets. It'll lose all that wit and charm of the earlier games. GTA only worked because it was an outsiders perspective, it was meant to be a parody of the US, just one big caricature, now the parody is reality so every joke is hate speech.
