What players say
Players largely agree the core game is a solid 4X that cuts diplomacy to focus on tactical combat and faction flavor. However, nearly every review warns the base game feels like a demo and the 20+ DLCs make the full experience prohibitively expensive, leaving many unable to recommend it despite enjoying it.
