I doubt it affects the sales much though since 2K is the publisher and decides the pricing.
If you like Civ V, BNW is definitely worth it.
Edit: On Irrational Games...

Irrational Games, the studio that makes BioShock, is shutting down. BioShock creator Ken Levine said today that he plans to move on to smaller, narrative-heavy games that will be released digitally.
Levine, who ran Irrational, announced the news on the Irrational Games website today, noting that he'll be starting "a smaller, more entrepreneurial endeavor at Take-Two" and laying off all but 15 people.
"While I'm deeply proud of what we've accomplished together, my passion has turned to making a different kind of game than we've done before," Levine wrote. "To meet the challenge ahead, I need to refocus my energy on a smaller team with a flatter structure and a more direct relationship with gamers. In many ways, it will be a return to how we started: a small team making games for the core gaming audience."

It seems some devs went to a new studio, Rosebud Games...

Rosebud Games is a new studio that have talented employees from a lot of different studios who have worked on a huge portfolio of games, including BioShock, The Witcher, and F.E.A.R.
Their first game, Death in Candlewood, is a first person shooter. But don't despair just yet! We're told it won't be our average FPS - this is being sold as an open world psychological shooter that is set in 1940s America and will tell the story of love between the living and the dead.
