SE:V, I'll be honest

[tmcc]

I love the game so far, but that being said I have to agree with slick to some degree. There is something missing that keeps me from the "just one more turn" syndrome. I have been analyzing why I feel this way and I think I've identified a couple of things:

1) It feels tedious. No stacking, clicking and dragging components, multiple menus to get the data you need, etc. etc. At times I just have enough.

2) Compared to SEIV the turns process much more slowly.

I think between being tedious and slow it saps my energy. with SEIV I'll often look at the clock and say "oh crap it's 2:30 AM and I have an 8:00 AM meeting". That has not yet happened with SEV and I can say for sure that it did with the SEIV and SEIII demos.
