But they need better graphics to cover up that they made a crappy game. It's easy to say "ditch the 3d", but that would mean they'd have to go back to old civ-engines or develop a new one. One of the reasons they made the game 3d is that all graphics engines currently are 3d-engines. I think making the game 3d is cheaper than making it 2d.
That is, if you build the game from scrap. They don't have to build the game from scrap, of course. Considering the recent experience they have with civ4 it makes sense to build on civ4 instead of civ3 (or earlier). It should be a lot easier than making civ4 as well, so hopefully they can focus on stuff that matter.

Will I buy Civ5? Probably not. Maybe I'll follow Shabba's lead, or maybe I won't play it at all... I don't know yet...
