Who's Left?

I last played SE V about a year ago but I think I'm going to go back to it. I don't have SE IV (maybe I'm missing something).

I would definitely do that.
SE IV was the live-for-many-years on my machines. SE V lived about a month.

ALTHO to be fair...
the SEIV game itself is far from impressive. It feels like a demo. 8 nations, tiny galaxy, short game. It was the community here that turned it into over 300 nations, huge galaxies, and a full game. The downloadable mods is what makes the game. So in all truthfulness I have not checked to see if the player community has saved SEV but from what I hear it does not seem to be

Well, SE V isn't a bad game it just didn't do it for me. There were/are a lot of issues with the UI. I also think the weapons show a lot of info which is not very clear. Hmm... I tried the wonderful Black UI mod and a few selfmade mods to the filse, but still the game had only about (like the most respectful Gandalf already pointed out) a month wirth of life on my digital monster. SE IV on the other hand... well it's great. Just like SE II and SE III before it. So go ahead and find SE IV, shouldn't make a huge dent in your finances nowadays.

I swing by every once in a while.

After many years I am back to SE IV. First game the AI kicked my arse. I was boxed in and the Space Vikings ran me over. Nothing like being humiliated by your own creation =P.

Second game I dominated pretty much from start. I noticed some pretty awful AI designs on races that I never got around to update. So I am back to playing around with the AI files. Currently have the Phong for Devnull Mod in the works =).
