GalCiv. Very clearly.
There is a demo of GalCiv, give it a try.

Depends on what you want and what you expect from the game as far as game play.

GalCiv demo is better than Moo3 full.

I recommend that you buy MoO2 via the links on this site for 10$ and download Stars from somewhere we all like to get old games. Use the other 25$ for something useful, I'd even recommend SEIV gold before those two bombs.

Well, I believe that on Chips and Bits you can buy the two games packaged as one for $45.. .thus you don't have to choose

Hey, next time wait a bit and be patient; not everyone answers each question that passes.

I would humbly recommend GalCiv judging from the fast pacing of your mind! :P

MOO3 look to be nice, a little like Europa Universalis, while GalCiv is the rightfull successor to MOO2.

They are not in competition even if you might think they are, they are not the same type of game at all. Someone can love both games, yet it will be because of his wild and huge tastes, usually u love 1 type and can`t stand the other.

GalCiv is a game, the pace is fast, you don`t need to try to start working to understand the basic. MOO3 would almost be a simulation(oky, very limited simulation) of something bigger, wider, hard to get the picture...yet, some folks would prefer this for the others challenges. Me I rather be the political party as overall then the leader.

It is EASY to start making fun with GalCiv.

It is HARD to start making fun with MOO3, you need to learn a lot, a new type of game or something...maybe when I am deadly bored I will try it more seriously, for now, playing GalCiv and MedTotalwar :P

Or perhaps you need to earn a college degree in MOO3?

I have never seen so many sliding menus/windows, buttons, rules, stats, clicking . . . and such a tortuous learning curve in all my life.

I was a poor math student and yet, that Calculus class I took was sheer enjoyment compared to this!

Anyway, I'll keep trying to learn MOO3. Fortunately, I "bought" it via Amazon.com when they were giving it away for free.

As for GalCiv?

I really think MOO3 should add an easier, a lot easier to understand where many aspect of the games are not even accounted for.

A little like Birthright did, but don`t mess it like Birthright and doing it fine.

I received governmental public letter to say I was a hope in mathemathics as a teen and I find it to heavy to actually learn it, I realize I will go to old game before using that interface
