The game lacks even the smallest features I would expect from a game of sort. Don't waste your time... or money

Shortly, I decided after 4 hrs of so called game play I can get a lot more value from the 850 megs on my hard drive if I uninstall. What i am writing here is more like a braindump than a review, but still.. I hope it will be usefull for a "chosen few" :).

What i dislike a lot about the game is that it gives very little choices and control - and that's not something I look when searching a turn-based game. Find bellow a few things I really dislike:

a. you can't design the layout of ships... this sucks, I used to spend hours in Galactic Civ when designing my ships;
b. the fleet control is really poor - it happened very often to issue commands to my ships and they just sat and did nothing; when they did, no notification... that's very nice when you have about 20+ fleets and 30 planets
c. I could not understand, during the short gameplay, what was the big idea for the planetary development - basically you have no control.
d. Diplomacy is almost non-existant
e. I couldnt care less about the flashy battle screenshots posted everywhere - I skip those scenes.

A good thing could be the huge size of the galaxy, but to me it really does not compensate for the huge amount of flaws I discovered.
