Got this off from Steam with a bundle of three previous series. Sadly I didn't like it when first came out and still lame to me. The Russians didn't do a good job on this title. Infact many like the old MoO2 better than third part and I like part three better. I think it have something to do with real-time, so you can watch the battles. But there are some flawed in the game that never gotten corrected or improved. So sadly they didn't do a good job on this new MoO, the graphics and animations was good, but the realism and how it was setup wasn't. Many were upset that they wanted turn based and other wanted real-time space engagements. Why not have both? Guess the Russians aren't that creative after all.
This game bring back good ol days back then when first release. To be honest I like this game way better than Master of Orion Series. Wish I have kept the original game box that comes in with tech tree chart, it would be very helpful so you know what you planning to research, so unfort this download game doesn't have that tech tree chart. I also noticed some are planning buying the whole set, it would be costly and I would recommended to get that strategy guide if you can, should have everything in there you need to know.
