I have been looking at it also. They have some good ideas and some bad ideas from my point of view. I hope it works because I would like to see how the religions for example spread to other worlds. I also like the research model so far but it all looks very ambicious and very likely to be subject to severe cuts in the actual release of the game. Some of the features talked about now will almost surely never see the light of day. Well if it ever gets released I will probably buy it to try it (I even bought Reach for the Stars even though I really knew better). The way they seem to be going for a high level strategy with less micromanagement (lots of minister type stuff in there) and real time battles doesn't suit me much but if it is done well and there are many options it could work and I wish them well. Even if it doesn't turn out to be the type of game I like I would still rather see it done well and be a success. It can only help the genre if its a good game.
