I am spending time to find out. It is odd for me to play a RTS 4X space game. I am very used to turns. There are things that are easy to pick up on and then there are things that I am clueless on. I am having fun figuring things out. I have yet play a game of legnth to get anywhere. I feel the start is very slow compared to GalCiv3. In two hours I have maybe 1 colony in Stellaris while in GC3 I would have like 20-50 colonies.
