  1. Idle Thumbs 154: Super Good

    Man, I wish that at least one thumb had just watched the Firaxis panel where they revealed Beyond Earth. Instead it was a bunch of "Uhhh... I think you pick a race?" "They wouldn't make an overtly racist game." "Do you fight against aliens?" All of which was talked about in the panel. Importing a Civ V game into Beyond Earth isn't really going to work because the game is set about 250 years in the future after there has been some giant worldwide catastrophy and humanity has had to reorganize and rebuild. It isn't like Crusader Kings where the one historical period just leads into the next.
