I love this type of game, but not this game.
Too many things to do, too many buttons, too many commands, too many needless rules- too complex.
I gave it some effort. I watched the 7 X 45 minute tutorial videos on youtube. I watched other videos too. Then I tried it. Paused the game for 2 hours trying to get the first turn done. I dont really know what to do even after I've "studied" and know what to do- I simply cant transfer what is in my mind to actions in the game.
Make the same game but easier interface (1/2 buttons and controls). Total war games, Civ, Master of orion, VGA Planets (nu) etc I can do.
not this
