Re: hello and help
Space Empires without a doubt
Reason why GalCiv community is larger, due to that GalCiv is more widely avaliable (being that SE is brought only over the net)
Also, you tend to find that the community around here is closer and friendly than communities for other games

Re: hello and help
this is hardly the place for unbiased opinons! However, even ardent GalCiv partisans will concede that Space Empires has far deeper gameplay. I suppose it really depends on how much time you want to invest in the game whether GalCiv or Space Empires is better. SE really is rather complicated...
The demo shows off the gameplay decently well, though.
Damn, now I'm remembering just how very, very long i spent playing the SE II demo before i realized there was a full version.

Re: hello and help
Sorry to derail the topic (slightly) but:
Would it be worth it to buy MOO II?? Cost would be about $10 US.

Yes. MOO2 was superior to SE4 in some ways... |

But BOTF was superior to Moo2 yet not so superior to SEIV. I would compare SEIV to Stars - but even then its a loose comparison.
Games like Imperium Galatic II and Reach For The Stars were hyped as awsome 4x games, but both fell horribly short of the mark. I never really played Stars, could not get into it. But the demo for SE IV sold me within 20 turns. That being said, I have played Moo 2 and disliked it. I found it to be kind of depressing to play, lacking really, dated, and not all that it was hyped up to be. Hell BOTF blew it away and for game play, but was plagued by micro-managment issues.
