Has anyone else been obsessing over this game since it came out?

I'm a huge fan of Strategy/RTS games, but this is the first game that I have been like "holy crap I have no clue what I'm doing but I love it!"
I love Eu4, and have been playing that recently. I want to get this game because of that, but am probably going to wait until it goes on a good sale.
HRK is selling it for $29 with a random game included, but I'm still too cheap for it. :P
Haha oh C'mon man! Don't be that cheap! Its $39.99 on steam and G2A has it for $34.10. Its worth itQuote:

But yeah I am having a blast with this game.. Its really enjoyable and will only get better with time and Mods and DLCS !
Guys are making me want to buy it :( But I must resist, lol.
Maybe I will buy it soon, I'm not sure :P
I might add this to the ol' backlog. I've been wanting a good space 4x for a while now. There's tons of fantasy stuff, but not nearly enough scifi, IMO.
It starts out strong but it slacks off the further along the game gets. Trade and diplomacy is pretty much broken from what I can tell. BUT the good news is there are already a butt load of mods out
Game comes in with a built-in Purge Xenos button.
10/10. Would inquisition again.
Is great game. 10/10, would exterminatus from orbit again.
Haha i presume you downloaded the Warhammer 40K mod and love it? i was thinking about downloading itQuote:

No, the 40k mod is shit. Just switches out the portraits and names.Quote:

But I think they'll need to get subspecies more mapped out before it works as well as I'd like.
I really loved this game until ~3/4 of my first playthrough (granted that was almost 40hr in). I was unlucky with my rolls of other empires (everyone was merchants or spiritual) and basically wanted peace. Everyone hated me for being militaristic. I made a ton of people my vassal and realized it's going to take me like another 30 hours just to clean up and finish off the rest of them.
I started a new game and went a different route and joined an alliance. The AI is not very smart so I had to spearhead the wars they started because their fleets were just getting picked off 1 by 1. The potential saving grace of this playthrough is that it's shaping up to be 3 massive alliance/federations that will eventually fight.
Overall the game is REALLY deep. Everything you mouse over has tooltips so you know what you are doing. There are mods to give more enhanced tooltips too. The mods do help a ton with bugs. If you're a fan of games like Galactic Civ, or Sins of a Solar Empire, you'll enjoy this game. The difference between this and Sins is you don't have control over the battles and use your different Titan abilities during.
But yeah it needs some work. There are lots of ways to screw yourself over and it seems like the CPU is immune to things.. Like one empire has like 19 planets.. There is NO way to get your planet cap to 19. MAx is ~10 for a player and everything over is 10% reduced income. There's no way that empire is operating on 90% loss. Plus they have a ton of outposts (which cost influence to build AND maintain) and that is REALLY hard to get especially the bigger your empire is. They wouldn't be able to recruit Governors, Scientists, Admirals, or Generals with no influence.
As said before though, this game is set up for longevity and I'm sure will be great once they fix some bugs and balance a few things out.
