[quote]It's fun single player, but Galactic Civilizations 2 is a far superior single player game by the same company and it's very similar. If you haven't tried Galactic Civ yet then I'd get that instead, even if you have then there's a new expansion coming out soon you might wanna wait for.[/quote] You should also let him know that Gal Civ is a completely turn based game.

[quote]As a 4X this game pretty much suck compared to other 4X games. The 4X elements in this game is either shallow or non existent.[/quote] Well considering that most 4x games have been turn based affairs, I'm not sure I see your point. But meh, to each his own.

[quote]Stardock really doesn't intervene unless the thread is extremely profane/insulting/etc.[/quote] I've been noticing this, particularly with the increasing arguments and dead-end topics. I knew this topic would turn into an argument.....The writing was on the wall.

[quote]I mean will we ever know if the TEC survive? Will the Advent get their revenge? What will happen when the Vasari's ancient enemy reaches them.[/quote] The first two questions can be answered by you playing the game, it's your choice whether they live or survive. The anicent enemies clearly won't be presented in this game.
