I noticed a rather old poll on the firaxis website which had a question on graphics:
Quote:
4. Graphics or Gameplay?
Code:
Percent Answer
2% It’s gotta be pretty
51% Balance is the key
47% Who cares about graphics?
|
Imo this shows most Civ players (which I assume are the largest chunk of Firaxis game buyers/site visitors) don't value graphics as much as say the FPS crowd.
The poll is very old (asking if you have a PS2 or an Xbox perhaps
) but looking back it's an interesting poll knowing Firaxis develeped Civ-Rev and Civ-Col. You can see they were playing with these ideas a long time ago already.
