For me it was to automate Ogre, which seems like a logical thing since it's supposed to be a machine. Of course, you can buy it today. https://store.steampowe

- smitty1e 5y agoNeat. 25 years ago, on Civ II or III, I blew a gasket on an 18 hour game and haven't been able to play since. He said, proudly frittering away time on social media.
- hkt 5y ago25 years ago would probably have been civ II. Source: I was playing it as a 7 year old and vividly remember learning that the UN was really a thing after building it in game.
- mango7283 5y agoCiv II's wonder video for the UN still gives me chills today, it's the best, that soundtrack and imagery was just evocative. But I do wonder if they intended to be cynical with the ability, which is - ""peacekeeping" - allows a democracy to declare war 50% of the time" :). The game putting scare quotes around "peacekeeping" doesn't help, heh. (Normally a democracy in civ ii cannot declare/start a war, having the UN overrides that.)
- hkt 5y agoHa - as a kid I definitely didn't pick up on that. I just enjoyed collecting wonders and watching all the videos. The UN one was great. I loved the videos from Alpha Centauri too, another Sid Meier contribution. Wonderful games (pun very much intended).
- mango7283 5y agoYeah it didn't concur to me either until I was rewatching them on YouTube a couple years back.:) Alpha Centauri was something special, they never did manage to recapture the magic with beyond earth.
