In SEIV single player, I would always research Stellar Manipulation long before the AI, and start removing warp points... that doesn't work in the SEV demo.
With a good bug patching, SEV will be as good as SEIV... with a good UI patching, it will be far better.
What is with all the TINY Gas Giants in SEV? Shouldn't they be Gas Dwarves?
I say buy it. I've played the demo since it came out and I feel that, with the bug and feature fixes that will come, this will be the best SE yet. MM is know for multiple patches that both fix and upgrade their games.
Give it two years to be finished, a bunch of mods to go with it, and it will be a good game.
Most of the modders here see great potential.
I'm not a modder and I like the uncluttered look of SEIV.

Yeah, me too. SEIV has been a permanent resident on my hard drive. I expect the same of V.
