I grew up playing the original which i loved. this version was cool in the sense that it added improved graphics & naval battles, but i unfortunatly i never got it to run seemlessly on my 2014 MacBook w/o compromising quality (despite the fact that i met all the min requirements and then some!). Even then it was still sketchy. Needless to say, it was very frustrating to have to set all the graphics quality to low-med. On top of that it takes up over 40GB of space. If you got a strong top of the line computer, go for it, but it you have an average MacBook like myself stick with the original.
