They said they've just finished writing a whole back story for the First Civ... I thought they had one but it appears they didn't. Whether this means their going to be starting a story arch or not is anyone's guess.

If they would just announce "oh yeah they'll be some VERY good modern day parts, oh and some glyphs that are actually fun" i'd buy the CE straight away.

Also I thought Unity had too much history put in, but not tied in nicely, they breezed over interesting bits and i just got the feeling it was just a cute backdrop rather than the story.
