Was this one of the worst marketing campaigns in recent history?
I don't recall anything after the Ouya puking ad which had such a terrible effect.
They could've waited another month and have video of gameplay, or better quality screenshots with commentary and context presented there.

marketing is the same
it's just that game looks real damn bad mostly cause of bad choice of artstyle

Everywhere I go and work, all the good from the people on lowest level is squandered by higher ups.
Does Sid Meier's name means anything anymore?

They were designed to be retard-proof and you still managed to fuck it up.

It's nostalgia bait warning. Anything prefixed by his name these days is garbage.

Seeing how he doesn't design games anymore, probably not.

Try doing something like (75423 - 11034)x2 in roman numerals. Retard proof my ass.

Who even fucking wants to count that high back then?

A smart greek guy calculated your house and hearth need 8124 bricks.
You have some laying around, you count to be 3456 them and do math to see how many you need to buy.
This is hard with roman numerals.
Or just about any person trading goods with ships would count high, by the way.
Or army quartermaster. Or some administrator in charge of the city's population.

It's okay to like it but if you went onto the civ General and said it was your favorite you'd be called poor bait

It's all minor buffs and passive shit that doesn't ammount to any significant advantage unless you can get 50 of them.
