Civ 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.
