This game has been getting a lot of hype for the volume it has sold and for its unique style of gameplay.
Indeed, the game is very unique; it's something like a cross between Starcraft and Civilization.
Ultimately, it is a bit more of an RTS than turn-based strategy game.
I'm doing terribly in it so far; mostly because (I think) that it has its own style of play that one needs to learn...and the learning curve is a bit steep.
Might be more trouble than it's worth to really bother getting good at...I dislike games that feel more like work to play than actually just "playing".
On the other hand, I might get somewhere in this game if I actually spent the 3-4 hours straight playing it that seems to be required in order to complete a single game. Unfortunately, it's pretty hard for me to do that...even on slow weekends like this one, giving 3-4 hours straight to a game is diffficult.
This is probably one of those cases where I've fallen more for the idea & hype of the game rather than the game itself...but we'll see.
It also still looks & plays very responsively on my old PC system. Will probably still try in the future.
