I don't like 4X games but I love MOO2.

Unlike the first game Master of Orion 2 has aged extremely well. It's easy on the eyes, it's easy to understand, and it's easy to control. If you're playing it for the first time you'll be able to jump right in. The interface is so minimal and user friendly you can learn as you go. MOO2 doesn't try to be overly complex and it doesn't bog you down with too much micromanagement. MOO2 doesn't feel like some stale simulation it feels more like an awesome board game filled with lots of random chance and customization. Tweaking the preset alien races is still a lot of fun. I usually modify the Humans to behave more like the greedy Gnolams--which seems more appropriate if you ask me. If you don't like 4X games you should at least give Master of Orion 2 a try. It's fantastic. 20 years later and I'm still playing it.

Master of Orion 2 an incredible Game

In 25 years of my pc gaming history there are only few games(most from Bioware before EA) that came close to MOO2! It is a Masterpiece which no newer 4x game has every surpassed. (I've played many, many games) You have not really played a 4x game without tried MOO2. The diplomacy system alone could teach all other (4x) games which came later some lessons. Neither Civilisation series or Galactic Civ could achieve the same depth. Master of Orion 2 although in todays standards a rather simple game it has so much atmosphere, so much details, everything is incredible well tought and designed. I've played 2500h on MOO2.

This is the Bar

Master of Orion 1 + 2 are the games to beat in the realm of turn based empire builders. Galactic Civilizations may be the new bar for today, but the bar that started it all is right here. These are some of the best strategy games to ever grace this Earth. If you are a fan of the genre, you owe it to yourself to buy, play, and play again - these classics.

Phenomenal Game

Not many come along like this. I had this game back when it first came out and it ate up a lot of my time. It is very addictive and the replay value is great. It can be tedious at times taking care of all of your planets and making sure they are working efficiently, but that is a minor issue compared to everything it does right. If you like turn based games this is one of the best.

Aspect Ratio Under Windows 7

The "Keep Aspect Ratio" option under Win7 is made unusable with nVidia or Intel drivers for LCD monitors including HDCP filters to limit users. This seems to be due to the HDCP crippling of hardware that has the side effect of crippling game aspect ratios. One solution is to use an AMD/ATI video card, which has a work-around: Set video to a resolution less than the display native value. This allows setting up the fixed aspect ratio, which is then retained when native display resolution is restored. Another solution is to dual-boot to Linux (I use Mint 13). Proprietary nVidia drivers under Linux allow the original aspect ratio to be retained. I corrected slightly-choppy sound by raising what appears to be the sound sampling rate in dosboxMOO1.conf (from 22050 to 32050). As for my MOO1 rating, my effort above should show how highly I value getting it to run correctly. I preferred playing it to finishing Skyrim, and may play another game before returning. MOO1 construction and play is a work of art by any standard, which is amazing for a 19-year-old game.
