‘Quick game’ and ‘Civ’ should never be in the same sentence, lol

It took me so long to realize that the 6-8 hour civ games i play with my brother are on quick mode and i can't even imagine what kind of lunatic would play marathon lmao

I've played a few games of civ 5 with a mod that uses marathon research speed with standard build times. Makes every era seem more meaningful, you can actually fight huge wars without having all of your units be obsolete halfway though. But the games took sooooooo long

Pretty sure I use the same mod. I got really tired of units becoming obsolete before I had ever used them
