Listen to the reviews! This game is the worst ever!

So... I loved MOO2 so much, I ignored all the terrible reviews and tried this game. What a gigantic disappointment. It's nothing like the second game, not even close. Everything takes forever. They took the good things that were simple to do in the second game, and gave them about ten additional steps. Just, don't waste your money. It's a piece of crap that will just give you endless frustrations--not to mention it will break your heart at the death of an amazing series.

If i were the designers, I would have taken the second game, given
-better graphics
-added more races
-fleshed out the combat
-continued a plot based on the Antaarans

Among other things, like bugs.

They had such a great thing going, and they scrapped it all. Such a shame.

  There is not a better example in killing a great and succesful series. Master of Orion 3 is the shining precedence.
