For me, it's an amazingly immersive & addictive game! I've played over 120 hours and now eagerly await the add on!

Admittedly, I'm a huge fan of the original and this follow up! While many folks complain of the bugs, the ONLY one I ever experienced was the pathing bug that was addressed in the patch. I find this game and its predecessors two of my top five favorite games of all time. Simply put, it's amazingly unique and addictive, offering an enjoyable mix of RTS, City Builder and RPG that no other game offers. Two keys when buying/playing this game...first, make sure your machine exceeds the min. specs...most of the 'bugs' that are complained about have come from two sources as experienced on the official forum: 1) those who's machines don't or barely meet the min. specs and 2) those who obtained the game illegally. The second key is LIVE the life of the game. I mean enjoy it...take the time to dig into every nook and cranny of the lives that your allowed to lead in this game! You'll find the immersion amazing!

And graphically, it's stunning to say the least! I eagerly await the add on!
