Ragnarok,
Out of curiosity, what was your take on Sword of the Stars? I gather that you dont/didnt care for it. I have it, but havent really been able to get 'into' it. Its not really a '4x' game IMO, its more like an RTS with a turn-based econ side.
What about it was disappointing for you?

The game is bad. Combat is very bad, research is using an old, outdated system as well. The entire colony/development-system is horrible, actually the worst i have seen. One system is resembled by a single planet, which you develope by TWO sliders ? huh ?!
Ship construction is boring. Diplomacy is non-existant. Ground combat is hilarious, no depth or tactic or anything like that involved. The only thing that is good is that those 4 races are using unique expansion/propulsion systems, but thats about it. Should i compare SotS to SEV, i would say SotS is an even bigger let-down than SEV
And that already means something.
I have to admit that a good mod, like Star Wars Mod or Adamant Mod or Devnull Mod could change my opinion about SEV.
