Unbelievably disappointing and bad

What the other reviewers said is true. It's not just the dumbed downness, the bad gutted mechanics, etc. Just the strategy layer itself is terrible. They made it more like Slipways or something where the entire mechanic is now about protecting system gates basically rather than protecting planets or systems. I dropped this game hard. The fact they had the audacity to then bundle 3 of the original reasons as 3 separate $10 DLCs only added audacity to insult, making this an overall much worse game across the board than a 25 year old game and costing $90 for the complete game on release. You will notice even now the "collector's edition" doesn't even include the DLC, which you'd still have had to buy seperately if you're foolish enough to buy this game just to add back a few races they took out of the original 90s game, including one of my favourite ones to play, the Trilarians, because ocean races are fun. This is not nostalgia speaking--the game is literally worse than the 90s game, and that includes the aesthetics (which I find overly cartoony compared even to the 90s game; if you like cartoons, you might give a star for smoother graphics which isn't a compliment vs over 25 years old games). I own virtually ever 4x game out there that isnt complete garbage. Endless Space 2 overshadows ES1 but the first is also good, GalCiv 3, Gladius and a variety of civ games, Stardrive2 being probably my present favourite. Playing Ralyeh is like playing Trilarians in a real MoO2 remake and Stardrive 2 is awesome. I have so many tons and tons of space strategy games, 4x or otherwise, on my PC, AI War 1&2 to Star Ruler 2 to BFGA2 and Final Theory, that I'd rather play than this hot garbage. This is literally one of the only 2 space 4x games I ever previewed & was so unbelievably terrible I never bought it and promptly erased after trying. This alleged "Master of Orion" 4 is like it was made by thick rim glasses Silicon Valley phonetrash shovelware devs; I even liked MoO 3 better.

Averagly fun- needs more flavor

Fun but I'm not ready to hit the 'BIG YAY' button just yet. After a few games now in the new MMO I would like to give my opinion. Over all I had 'fun' but it's been nothing that has blown me away. I really like the Narrator and the voice work and some of the unique details in the game such as the colonizing new planets screens. -Star Lanes: They work better then I expected they would expecially in terms of fleet/ map stratagy. (Some people passionately love or hate them) -GNN Annoying the robots are irritating and their comedy falls flat in what is meant to be a serious game. (you can turn this off though) -Races I really like the different personalities of the races and their strengths and weaknesses. -Spy Spam In my games anyway the amount of spys given if massive and becomes a feature that is way overblowen and needs to be toned down. -Nice background music, calming, space like, good exploration (could use more stand out tracks though) -The overlay and the menus all help make managing a large empire much easier and less of a chore then in some 4x games and some space games. -The Galactic council screen needs a skip feature instead of watching the same animation that you can't skip though. -500 Turn limits for all games (might be able to increase or turn off I am unsure as of writing this) -Ships are nicely customizatble along with the buildings and tech tree although I feel it could still use a bit more. Other then that I'd say it would be good to add in some more polish and shine to make the game stand out and give it more flavor. The introduction is short and although 'good' isn't anything to write home about- the same feeling while the game is fun kind of speaks for the whole game that way ultimately. Also another thing I dind't like was links to other games like Total Anhiliation in the games menu, not sure why that is there. So over all an average fun game that need more spit and polish to truly start being remarkable.

Master of Orion CTS Review

A modern take on the classic 4x game from the 90's, Master of Orion : Conquer the Stars is a fresh take on the classic games, taking alot of inspiration from MoO2 in particular. Multiple races with different characterisics and different galaxy setups keeps this game fresh each play through and top tier voice acting talent such as John De Lucie and Mark Hamil make for very entertaining gameplay / cutscenes. Minor complaints, Multiplayer mode seems a tad glitchy, and some races are much stronger than others. MP fleet battles are automated rather than played out in real time, which is disappointing. Guess they spent most of the budget on the voice acting talent then lols Overall a fresh take on a classic genre, not perfect but definately fun to play and plenty of replayability. Worth a buy if on sale. Rating 8 / 10 or 4 stars

Master of Orion (remake)

The remake is missing several features that were an important part of the original MoO & MoO2. * No automatic routing of ships. You cannot manufacture ships on several worlds & have them automatically fly to a rallying point. * No capturing of enemy ships. Because of this there is also no scrapping of captured ships to reverse engineer their technology. * No manufacturing option to repeat a build order although this is minor. * No option to refit a single ship. If you just want one ship with a Stellar Converter you have to create an entire class of ship. * Cannot click through repetitive invasion animations. (the interface on the bombing/invasion screen is also poorly laid out) * Ships only travel via warp corridors instead of open space. Once you have the technology to redirect ships in flight you still have to wait for them to reach a star system before they can follow your order even if it is just to return to their starting point. * Fewer options for controlling GNN reports. * No transport of essentials between planets. If a planet cannot produce sufficient food to support its population they will starve even with every agricultural boost in the game. If MoO2 or even MoO were able to take advantage of the technology of modern PCs either would be a much superior game to this.

Fun Game.

I've played this game before and really liked it. Played earlier ones also and liked them too. Don't care about multiplayer. If I want to interact with people, I'll call someone. Lol. Nice way to kill some time.
