I may have made a huge mistake.
I started playing Civ 5. I bought it a long time ago when the whole package was 90% off and finally decided to play it. And that's all I did. I knew this wasn't going to be a casual experience. I played Civ 3 when it was the most recent game in the series my old Laptop was able to play and the SNES version of Civ 1 a couple of years later (because apparently, I only play the odd-numbered ones). I knew the risks.
But I also have a bunch of vacation days to use up, so I took a week off from work to just let this happen. Get it out of my system and hopefully move on from there. Don't bother holding my beer, it'll be stale by the time I come back out of this rabbit hole.
Haha, you took a big risk. I have stayed away from Civilization games for a while because of this, once you start them, things can get out of control.
I have been getting slight itch for them again though, specially with the trailers for 7. Though I am keeping myself in check for now, but plan to give 7 a try when it launches.
