I remember carrying a floppy with CIV.EXE to the computer lab at college. I haven’t played them all, but I did a bunch of civ 1, civ 4, and civ 6. Always on computers, but now I’m on a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/consolegaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#consolegaming</a> system and it’s different. The UI is pretty clumsy. Easy to pick the wrong things. And you have a cursor that you have to move to the thing you want to select. And if your cursor is halfway across the map, I think you have to walk it hex by hex back to where you want to look.Graphics are gorgeous. Voice acting is very good. Sound is excellent. But I’m not understanding some of the new mechanics. 1/2 <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/videogames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#videogames</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/playstation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#playstation</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/civilizationvii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#civilizationvii</a>

Blake Patterson<a href="https://mastodon.social/@carlosefr" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@carlosefr</a> Well, during the NES, SNES, SMS, MegaDrive days, I was using Amigas, and the high fidelity RGB displays were so much nicer than composite on TVs which were typical for consoles in the U.S. The lack of RGB kept me completely uninterested in consoles until the PSX came along, and I had to have one of those after I saw Wipeout. It was a few years later that I had my first TV CRT that had anything better than composite in. A Sony WEGA was my first, with s-video and component. Right now on my gaming shelf, all of the consoles are coming in via s-video and one via component. Composite is just for the odd battery-powered "rewind" unit or my 130XE. <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/consoles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#consoles</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/consolegaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#consolegaming</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gaming</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Atari" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Atari</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Nuon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nuon</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/N64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#N64</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Playstation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Playstation</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Saturn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Saturn</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Jaguar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Jaguar</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/CRT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CRT</a>
