Re: Man, it\'s just not there.
I'm still in the same boat with many of y'all. I WANT to really like SE5, but it still leaves me feeling like I'm missing something.
Every time a new patch comes out, I wait for Kwok's latest update to take advantage of it and then I start a new game. And each time a play a handful of turns and lose interest. I dont know why it is either. I think it just starts to feel less manageable and starts to feel more like work than fun. And yes, the long turn times are a killer because they occur even for smaller games. I just recently doubled my RAM on my system (from 1gb to 2gb) but I have yet to see if that helps or not.
Anyways, if I hadnt liked SE3 and SE4 so much I would have given up SE5 by now and just written it off as a loss. But given how much time I spent on the prior two games, I'm still hoping that the patching and mods make SE5 into the game I had hoped it would be.
