IGN: 2K confirmed this morning that 20 employees have been let go from Maryland-based studio Firaxis, makers of the upcoming strategy game Civilization V. The studio employs roughly 100 people total.
Civilization V continues to be one of the most popular grand-strategy games you can play on Steam, for about three years.

Philip Boyes:
When I was a kid, I played a lot of Civilization 2. I played a lot of strategy games in general, but having a deep love of both history and sci-fi, the epic sweep of Civ 2 from prehistory to the stars held a particular appeal. I loved taking my little people from their huts and ziggurats to the world of science and advanced space-flight.
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
I hope it doesn't affect the quality of the game.
Crap.What the hell is going on there? Don't start cutting up the Civ group or I'll raise hell
