    Turn based games

    For some reason I'm not usually a fan of turn based games be it RPG or strategy but Covid has given me a new liking for the Civilization games (I own the first 5) as well as games like Baldur's gate. Been thinking it might be fun to have an MCB game of Civ 5 and I so wish that partying in Baldur's Gate was a thing

    I'd be all for it, I am a big turned based strategy game fan. I like PC games that I can pick up and play/stop playing on my schedule. I am not a fan of RTS because it is always a "beat the clock" thing vs. true strategy play. I have been playing the Civilization games from the beginning (but have yet to "upgrade" to Civ V).

      I think that's why I'm beginning to warm up to Civ and other turn based games. I can play a few turns between calls but if a calls come in I can just stop and do my job then go back to my game when I'm sitting waiting for sometimes 45 minutes or longer.

    Back in the day I used to play Civilizations II, now with Steam I spend a fair amount of time playing Civilizations III.

    My only gripes are that it seems prone to crashing under certain victory conditions (like winning the space race), and there are only a couple of scenario options.

    It’s fun to test out different Civs and see how their different attributes and unique units change the game.

      The most stable version of Civilization after II is Civ IV. It gets you the best performance with the least amount of bugs. One of the reasons I haven't moved up to Civ V is reports of bugginess.

      The reports of bugs are quite old. Civ 5 is quite stable. Only bug I had was a weird one where it gave errors when loading, had to do with the whole moving the game to a new pc thing. Solution is delete and reinstall
