Great game for sci-fi relaxing

I really enjoy this game when I feel like a few minutes feeling productive and influential in a science fiction setting. Competent AI assistants and regents could handle any of the details of the simulated colonization/exploration scenerio that I encountered while playing, allowing you to focus on the parts of the game you enjoy the most without the situation falling apart as it does in some other titles (including previous entries in the series, apparently). A valuable game to look at if only for the art and interface design, which might be the best that I've seen in a computer strategy game.

The Tarnish Of An Empire

Master of Orion 3 was my most anticipated game at the time, the original title was my favorite game. While none of the developers of the previous games were involved, I had hope in the idealistic Quicksilver to get things done. As it turned out, while they were chirping out cool ideas they were trying to implement, trouble brewed behind the scenes. The game lost its producer half-way through development and what was once a comprehensive vision became a jungle of glassy, well-intended shards. What wound up in a bizarre red box on a frigid February day and, subsequently, in my college-poor hands, is a mystery. The art direction was unified and repulsive. Every fun aspect of empire building was washed away by layers and layers of abstraction and complication. Diplomacy became a game of e-mail and even further abstractions. Simply playing the game was a chore. The game sold okay and it was enough for Infogrames to charge Quicksilver with a pair of patches before dropping support entirely. This mess of a "game" (more like a boring galactic toolset) isn't worthy of the Master of Orion game and I suppose if we'd all been wiser, we could've foreshadowed the trainwreck from miles away, but we were far too hopeful and naive. Do not buy.

honestly when was it awful?

Ive read a lot of negative reviews on this site, and on gamefly.com where i first played moo3. "moo" is an excellent and ironic acronym for Masters Of Orion actually. Since to play it right you have to endlessly shovel data into your brain hole regardless of what you may think doesn't matter, because usually that one thing that "doesn't" matter will bite you hard later. but thats why its awesome, its a challenge. I wasn't around for the digital roach problem people seem to have. So i cant say.....although if you had bugs in a program in the early 2k era of gaming....they were almost assuredly devastating. the art style is star trek serious with that sci-fi whimsy of starship troopers. my recommendation: play on now that the bugs seem gone.

Actually a good game

Master of Orion III is actually a good game, despite everyone who complains about it. It's not like it's the best game ever, but it's absolutely underrated. The main reason people hate it is that it is popular to hate it. But if you go into the game without any prior expectations, you will be surprised at the level of depth, complexity, and detail it has. I'll take its battles any day over I and II, and the universe certainly has a lot more depth to it than the previous games. It's actually a good game. People just don't like it because it isn't everything they wanted. I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed it every time I've played it. However, if you are turned off by a lot of micromanagement and menus, this game is not for you.

Patch it then play!

I bought MOO3 knowing it needed to be patched to be a good game. Since I got the fan patch installed it is a pretty fun game. I tried it before and it was a pretty hard to enjoy experience. Now it is way better and a lot less buggy. The interface is easier to navigate and the overall feel is much improved. Give it a chance. :)
