Heh...

Even for my rant on GalCiv I still got my moneys worth from it, even it wound up in my uninstall and don't care if I lose the CD pile...

Oh, there's plenty of wit and satire in GalCiv, though I would agree that it may or may not be ones cup of tea.

Honestly, I don't care too much for any of that 'craftmanship' if the game mechanics are great, and if the game mechanics suck then no amount of craftmanship is going to make it interesting (basically ALL RTSs in my opinion...)
