I don’t see how this comment was called for.

With some data patches and mods MoO3 is easily a classic and on my 'best games' list. I wouldn't really compare it to Space Empires or even MoO2 though, it's an entirely different game.

How come you thought the UI was so terrible, Atrocities? I thought it was actually rather ingenius, considering how much information you can access in just a few clicks, and generally the way it's all set up. There's room for improvements, like with all things, but overall I thought it worked nicely.

But yeah, it was released as an Alpha/Beta version, sadly.

Alas. Didn't mean to stir emotions. perhaps a smilie after that would have highlighted my jovial tone. I'm sorry if you took it harshly.

I only meant to highlight a similarity between moo3 and se5 - they're both much better after you download a couple mods.

In hindsight, that was a dumb way to do it. Too late for hindsight though! =/

I hate to admit but with the patches and a couple of mods (strawberry and chocolate for example) I actually thought MOO3 turned out to be alright. Admittedly it's a RADICAL departure from MOO2 and I think that was part of what killed it. My biggest complaint is it gets repetetive (sp?) late in the game but I honestly still play it.

No big deal. It’s hard to convey emotions across the board, which is why I tried to make my observation as neutral as I could.
