[ [/quote]It is not more moddable than SE4 though, and you can not eliminate its major flaws through modding.
Turning the viceroys off DOES NOT disable them entirely. They still make changes. How many times do I and others have to repeat this? It is getting tiring saying it over and over and over again.
There are significantly more people that find MOO3's interface to be horrible and clumsy than that find it to be a good interface. And what a patch will or will not do HAS NO BEARING on how the game is RIGHT NOW. What the game might be like in the future IS NOT a valid basis for argument of whta the game is like NOW.[/QB][/quote]
MOO3 may or may not be "more moddable" then SEIV, but so what. You do not know that for a fact, nor do I. Plus (opinion), there are NO "major" flaws in this game. (but a fact to me)
I am also getting tired ( not really

) of repeating, when I turn off "Roy" I control my planet.
I am not sure where you get your "poll" numbers from, but from what I have read this would contradict your "clumsy interface" rampage.
I am curious, why do you seem so angry (opinion) in your Posts?
