The glaring flaw in this game is its historical inaccuracy. For example, when a great Artist is born in your country, some boring text gets shown and some weird purple numbers go up on the screen but that's it. You don't see the Great Artist enjoying his fame, getting tons of women and power and money and doing lots of drugs and stuff and being cool, like they would in history. Not only that, but the Great Artist is never made honorary king, and you can't even instruct your military to switch allegiances to him. You don't get a tour of the Great Artist's large estate where he has tons of cool horses and probably something crazy like a lion, because Great Artists are wild like that. Possibly most heinous of all is that your Great Artist does not go on wild, blow-out tours throughout every other players' civilization, leaving almost terrorist-like destruction in his wake, something legendary and awesome like that. Other than that it's pretty good.
