Master of Orion 2.5
I've been a huge fan of MOO2 since the good old days when legendary games like this were being made, and before I heard of the new Master of Orion: Conquer the Stars I would still fire up MOO2 every now and then, because it was that good. I bought the new MOO recently when it was on sale, after reading the many negative reviews on GOG about how mediocre and CIV-like it was. I actually went and read the patch notes in the months after the game's release, the latest one being version 55.1.2.1.40421, and decided to see if it was as bad as the reviews say. I was pleasantly surprised. After playing through one whole game (all the way until I had my butt handed to me, I will go into this in more detail later), I personally think that this is MOO 2.5 as it felt like I was playing MOO2, except with AAA graphics, refined mechanics and most importantly, that same experience faithfully preserved. Now, onto my game session that left me gawking, not to mention embarrassed. I played as the Humans as I just wanted to jump right into the game without spending all that time fiddling around with the custom race creation. For the first 400 turns, things appeared to be going fine for my ten or so colonies spread out across six star systems, though the other four AI opponents were waging war against each other. I set the population growth rate to Normal, which made for a longer drawn-out game. The Meklar Combine was out-producing every other race, had better technology and wiped out the Darlok and Bulrathi races. I had two fully-upgraded titans that I had planned on taking to the Orion system so I can try and defeat the Guardian and get the Death Ray weapon. Once my titans left for uncharted space, the Meklar declared war on me and took out two of my colonies with dozens of cruisers, frigates and destroyers. I then ordered my titans back home, but they too got wiped out by the same invading fleet. The End. Best MOO game ever since classic MOO2. Damn you, Meklar Combine. Damn you!!
