Personally, I find Civ V rather disappointing compared to modded Civ IV: Beyond the Sword. I guess it’ll take them a while to catch up with the Civ IV modding community.
Monty’s a douche, but at least he’s consistent. You always know what to do if you start near him. The ones who have been giving me a hard time are Ceasar and Hiawatha, who have both been totally unpredictable in my games.
Is Civ 5 better than Civ 3 or 4? I was disappointed by both of those games. In the case of Civ 3, it wasn’t even worth playing. Civ 4 was better, but it was not worth playing when I had Civ 2 available.

How sad is it that I want to spend $700 to upgrade my computer so I can play Civ V?

How sad is it that I bought my new laptop (I needed one, btw) specifically so it could play Civ V?

Montezuma is supposed to be a douchebag. That’s the purpose of his very existance.

Not only that, assuming that was the menu music from Civ 4 they were using, the lyrics were The Lord’s Prayer.
