I never played MOO or MOO2. I read this guys rant and some other Posts on the thread. My impression is that it's no worse then some of the complaints that SE4 generated, especially form some of the diehard SE3 fans back in the early days. It's hard to mke the case that the game is flopping based on this guys opinion. There are plenty of Posts on that forum saying how much they like the game too.
I haven't decided yet if I am gonna try it. I'll probably just wait for SE5.
One thing that I do think is interesting. In all the Posts I read on that forum, people do lots of comparing between MOO and other 4x game like Galactic Civ, Alpha Centauri, and others. But I never see anyone mention Space Empires. Are we that much of a niche game that other niche gamers don't even know who we are?
