[quote]Why not just increase game speed?[/quote] Multiplayer? Anyway, personally I wish there was more to do in that time, ie more complexity to resources and more customisation of ships, I mean if you think of the options something like civ4 offered, it justifies the speed, whereas sometimes with SoaSE you end up bored: sad but true.
