Fun but lacking
User Rating: 5.5 | Distant Worlds PC
Not the worst 4x game iv played but definitely not the best. the automatons are helpful at times some automation are effectively broken such as the attack enemy empires. Ships will consistently disobey saying out of ally space worsening relations. Colony ships will have no regard to whether a free planet is near your space or in the hart of a hostel empire. Game crashing bugs plague but can be avoided only to be hassled buy long save times just to make sure.
It has an addictive quality as many 4x games do but the functions do nothing to solve the problem of redundancy when trying to take over 200+ enemy worlds one planet at a time on a moderately sized empire.
The final straw for me was on a random crash in the middle of a save destroying about 4 half hours of progress. Your better off with galactic civilizations or any of the civilization games.
