Review: Great game! - I see no reason for hating this game, especially if you went ahead and got yourself the Gold Edition. Civ 5 is just as addicting as all of the other Civ games, even if they changed a few parts of it here and there. The developers have fixed all of the important mistakes that were made in vanilla. I fully recommend buying this game! Disclaimer: Do not buy this game if you happen to like sleep. If you don't mind only getting three hours of sleep every night due to "Civilization-just-one-more-turnitis", then by all means, get it.
Review: I vehemently resent being forced to use "Steam" - I've have played every version of "Sid Meyer`s Civilization" that has been released and have enjoyed them all, some more than others. Still, this is the first time I have found something in one that I dislike so much that I felt the need to say something about it. I only received my copy of "Civilization V: Gold Edition a few days ago, so I haven't played through a complete game at this point, but so far the game is OK, not as good as earlier versions but still enjoyable. But like some others, I vehemently resent being forced to create a "steam" acct., and then install "Steam" on my system in order to play the game "off-line". If it where only required to be installed to play on-line I wouldn't have a problem. Those were bad enough, but too also have to put up with their advertisements popping up on my screen every time I start the game is too much. I paid for a license to play the game, not for ads. Yes I tried to find a way to install it without "steam" but failed. And if you shut-down "Steam" before or after you start the game it shuts the game down. If the input of a customer means anything to "Sid Meyer or 2K Games", if you make a "Civilization VI", please don't make "steam" a requirement for its enjoyment, at least not "Off-Line". Update (3 Apr 2014): Upgraded my OS to Windows 7 64bit, but will not be re-installing Civilization V. I'd send it back but I took too long to decide not to use it. If they put out a "Civilization V Complete" version later that doesn't require "Stem" to install I will buy that one, if not I will not be playing this game.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This game is amazing!!
*by A***R on August 27, 2016*

This game is amazing!!! Definitely worth the buy. Since I ordered this game I have over 200 hours played both solo and with my friends. Multiplayer is the best part of this game because it takes high-level strategy to outmaneuver other people. When playing against computers, it is much easier unless you decide to set the game on the highest difficulty.
