It is, as noted, a title I have spent a lot of time with, it has Steam achievements, scenarios, and the things that make Civ fun. Overall, a solid if somewhat divisive entry in the series.

There is also a ton of Steam Workshop mods and scenarios for the game.

They are okay, but like a lot of Civ expansions they completely changed how the game felt. There are two expansions about which I am less than thrilled. The base game is generally available for cheap during any sale. I was able to get through a medium size game in an afternoon and evening. It runs at a sprightly pace now, the computer opponents being very quick until you get into deep late-game with tons of units on the field. A re-install fixed the issue and I was able to play. I had to re-download it because the copy I had on my drive, last played in 2019, simply refused to launch. It is still there and playable, though it can be a bit problematic. It didn’t really stick with me, feeling like a watered down Alpha Centauri mixed in with the almost maniacal love of unnecessary graphical detail that tends to grip the series. I suppose, as a side question, is any of the DLC worthwhile? Does it improve the game? My impressions are all from the base game, which was unexciting enough… I am really not interested in how my cities look as long as they are producing units for war as an example… that I went back to Civ V.Ībility to play today: 100% Civilization: Beyond Earth – 2014 But for just me to play for maybe 2 hours… not so much. If we got the one-time “strategy group” back together for Friday night games or some such I would grab it. That isn’t a huge amount in this day and age, but it is more that I was willing to invest in going back to play it. While it probably runs better on my current machine than it did on the one I had when it launched, it is also 16+ GB to download.
