Re: Galactic Civilizations II impressions
btw. Im pretty amazed by the people who *defend* Firaxis here. It was clearly their fault and i believe FAR more than 75% of the initial buyers had major issues with the game. Firaxis did not even fix their stuff in the first place, i absolute remember that a fanboy made some kind of dll-swinging .exe which solved the memory-lads. When the official patch was released, it included that fanmade fix. Unfortunally this is where im dissapointed from the so called god of gamers Sid Meier. I remember playing Civ 2 when i was like 10 years old, i remember Colonization, and Pirates Gold. Civ 4 was a catastrophe.
Now, months after release, its good and modable, but thats no excuse which would allow a company to sell crap. Its like your car-shop is selling you a so-called new and intact car, which is in fact missing both its brakes and its gas pedal.
