This game was forced out of Early Access somewhat prematurely, there were some long-standing issues some months after release that had to be ironed out, i.e. the tanking FPS which plagued being able to run this game beyond 20, 15 or lower FPS for quite a while post-release.

That issue was resolved, each faction is diverse, the maps are pretty and if you're playing multiplayer then the difficulty curve (like with any other multiplayer for ...most games) is going to vary and seem ridiculous at times but that's multiplayer for you.

The campaigns, the maps and the factions have variety but its not overwhelming and easy to digest for anyone that's played RTS games before.

In all honesty this game deserves a comeback as the devs continued to work on patching out the last few issues the game suffered from and they didn't just abandon it.

This game received bad press due to the post-release bugs, but that shouldn't undermine how solid this game became after some vital patching.

It would be in the dev-teams interest to add a 3-mission campaign for each faction so players can see for themselves why this game shouldn't be left in the dusty shadows of the Steam store.

Its been a while since I last played this but the AI in skirmish if I recall wasn't the best, but AI in skirmish in most RTS games tends to be unrealistically cheaty anyway so at least in Grey Goo the AI is fun to fight even if its not that great - but these skirmish maps are for multiplayer anyway so I personally wouldn't knock the game for "Ez skirmish AI"

Give it a try.
