Why ‘Civilization’ is a political masterpiece
I&#x27;ve played every Civilization since the first one, I believe. I think 4 was my favorite, especially since it had the best music. I sing old music professionally, and it was such a treat to enter a new era and hear some of the best musicians in the world singing actual music of the era: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=7g7jOKLUus8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=7g7jOKLUus8</a><p>(the music in that video is by John Sheppard, a decidedly Renaissance composer (not Medieval, as indicated by the game), but the music is so good that I can absolutely forgive that inaccuracy).<p>Lately I&#x27;ve been wavering from the series though. My biggest complaint is that every game is so long and requires so much micromanagement in the mid-late game. Even at the fastest setting, a full game seems to take at least 10-20 hours. Sometimes I just want to go through the tech tree in a different world without having to spend such large amounts of time on it.
