And also liked AC a lot- perhaps my fav of the series. BE feels like it lacks that character and atmosphere, semi-random tech and customization (even though like you say, it wasn't done very well). Was hoping some of that would exist in BE, but improved. The new features seem like shallow versions of things I've done in smaller/indie games that had more depth to them.

So I'll probably end up waiting with this one until expansions come out. I loved Alpha Centauri, but this just seems like Civ 5 DLC to me, not a new game. Still, I know I would probably have enjoyed it if I bought it on launch. | ||

I quite like the choices at game start... having a bunch of choices which you can mix and match however you want means there are more combinations to change it up. The tech web thing also seems like it lets you explore randomly a bit more than previously, but I didn't get far enough into it to see how well it works. Idk if it's just orbital things don't last nearly as long as i'd expect, or i just didn't realise that miasma harms orbital things too and threw it up in the wrong spot when i didn't really know what i was doing at the start, lol... | ||

So now im torrenting the thing and playing that until the unlocks @ midnight. Frankly dont feel bad since ive already purchased it, its just bullshit that everyone gets different unlock times. technically if i remember correctly virtual copies like that are only illegal if you dont own the game | ||
