So you can build a few new building in space, cool. How is this worth 20€ again?

This looks suspiciously like Stellaris...

[@obyone878]

Not at all.

[@Grimmwoldds]

You do know gal civ as a series predates Stellaris by like a decade, right? And that both pull from abandonware like MoO, right?

[@RamzaBehoulve]

They have a long, very long even, way to go before matching Stellaris...

[@skystranger73]

Stellaris is so overrated. It has a lot of content ofc, since the game is getting old. But it has fundamental problems which no amount of overpriced dlcs is likely to correct. Those being horrible late game performance on big maps and the fact that real-time concept doesn't go well with 4x where you need to think and manage a lot of things, so you end up using pause a lot anyway. Galciv on the other hand doesn't have these problems and it will get more content in the future probably. Galciv > Stellaris imo.

@@skystranger73 This is such a weird comment, given that all the issues you mentioned are the same for GalCiv. Only difference is turnbased vs real time. The pause complaint also makes no sense, since you don't have to pause all the time, and you can just slow down time.

@@obyone878 Galciv 4 SN runs fine in the late game, no lags\fps drops. Unlike Stellaris, which slows down considerably by the ~2400 year even on good hardware.
