Default Re: Did Space Empires V kill Space Empires?

The major problem is that SEV is not really a direct sucessor to SEIV, as the playing style changed too much from one game to another... I mostly stopped playing SEV because it took too long to process it´s turns in a reasonable time, as it is a showstopper for me....

I play 4x space games a for a loong time, started in VGA Planets and i´m today at Sins.

Now, for the first time ever, i´m considering a Real-time space strategy game as a good sucessor for the classics 4x space games (I´m talking about Sins of a Solar Empire)...

My evolution of good 4x space games:

VGA Planets -> Stars! -> Master of Orion 2 -> Space Empires IV -> Sins of a Solar Empire
