After playing more than 20 years of all different kinds of CIV, especially switching back and forth between the versions, it dawned on me that the most important aspect of a game like CIV is the display of information, the UX. It all boils down to how I as player consumes the informations and forms my decisions. The second most important thing of any many hours long game is the number of times I have to click something with the mouse. And there is obvious: the more clicks, the worse, in particular if the click is actually avoidable. The rest is for me secondary. Any kind of graphics will do as long as I can see clearly on first glance what it represents.

I'd like to see a modern refresh of Civ2, which IMO is still the best in the series. Just update the graphics/sound/UI and leave the rest as-is.

Well how about I introduce you to... FreeCiv!

FreeCiv is missing the advisor videos :)

But maybe with proper pathfinding and better terrain generation? :)

I wouldn't mind (optional) bigger maps (particularly Earth), to be honest :)
