Default Re: Galciv2: Dark Avatar gets a 9.0 in IGN

I don't see SE as a very suitable game for multiplayer, really. PBW simply doesn't appeal to most (younger?) players since you get a limited number of turns to play each day, which isn't good enough if you've got several hours to fill. And the game is too time-demanding for real-time multiplayer, both in regards to waiting for other players to finish their turn, and the hours it takes to actually play a game.

This is why I think AI, UI and turn processing times are the most important factors for SE V right now.

GC2 has got at least two of those things right, the AI and turn processing, but that game is lacking in so many other areas, and the direction they've chosen to take the game in has alot less potential than the direction SE is heading in. So I wouldn't really put it up as much of a competitor for SE, gameplay-wise.
