Civilization V: Gods and Kings can't fix what is fundamentally flawed (review)
Gods and Kings feels like Civ V is taking a step forward in some respects. The new espionage system is a worthy addition, and it smartly enhances the sorely lacking diplomacy of the original release.
Civ V is finally a builder's game Many times when I approach a new Civ adventure; I just want to plunk down in some corner of the world and erect impressive structures of culture and significance that last the ages.
Civ V is still fundamentally flawed At the core of the Civilization series is the management of a careful balance between expanding your empire and researching new technologies; maintaining a standing army; and improving diplomatic relations with other nations.
