Difficult for beginners but great game
This game is truly a fantastic game IMO. The only aspect where LucasArts could've done a lot better is the tactical combat part. Just a gigantic box where you can only zoom in and rotate around the middle so it's difficult to actually zoom in the part where the action is actually taking. The one mechanic which I found annoying is the fact that randomly at some point, there would be a environmental disaster on some random (occupied ones only I think?) planet which would limit the amount of buildings you could build on that planet. it's a shame you could never disable that. Other than that, I've always done SP, never MP, so the only thing I can say is that I really liked how the SP was. I always played the longest games (with the most amount of star systems), resulting in thousands of in-game days per sessions, since I love marathon games (just like marathon length games in Civilization games. I never understood why this game was so underrated, since I loved (and still do) this game so much. I can only hope that, one day, they will make a great remake of this game.
