In Civilization Online, a player recorded a video showing how the community collaborates to build a wonder of the world.
Those familiar with the strategy games in the series know how important the wonders of the world are. However, you don’t have much to do with the construction. At the end of a round in Civilization, progress accumulates, and eventually, the building is finished. Sure, you can give it a little push, but as the guiding spirit of an entire civilization, you don’t get your hands dirty.
In the korean online version of the game, which is currently in an open beta, things operate quite differently. You are not the timeless world ruler, but part of the unwashed masses. You belong to the proletariat, the working class, and the population of a civilization and must pitch in personally when such a project is underway.
As you can see, faction members have brought their carts full of materials, and it takes over 100 players to build the wonder of the world. The Notre Dame Cathedral is being created there. In our world, it stands in Paris.
Will Civilization Online ever make it to the West?
