Who?
Help me, /v/. I want to get into the 4X genre and need to find the perfect 4X game for me. I want to see star systems, good-looking space ships and planets. I want to claim and colonize the pristine, wage war with and conquer hostile factions and/or races, immolate defiant worlds by a sense of self-righteous tyranny, set aside random sectors as no-develop reservations, and hold meaningful diplomatic relationships with other factions and/or races. I also want to explore, and gawk at the enormity of all that I can reach and develop. I want to terraform, mine, tax, assign governors, the whole she-bang
I've been researching 4X games on Steam and feeling kind of exhausted with it at the moment
Stellaris
>Paradox looks like shit because of that earlier thread
>All those Stellaris expansions I have to buy and install.
Endless Space 2
>Only apparent downside I'm aware of so far is that three out of eight playable races have ships that all look like shit.
Distant Worlds: Universe
>Maps reportedly get pretty huge.
>Don't know much else other than what youtube shows me.
Unending Galaxy
>Free to play.
>Know barely a thing about it other than this.
>Only reason I haven't tried it yet is because my current PC is too old. I'll be upgrading it soon, so disregard this fact.
Polaris Sector
>Looks good, but reviews say it's garbage compared to some others.
Galactic Civilizations III
>generic name ('Civilization') worries me
>But I don't want to just dismiss it because it might turn out being the best 4X.
Master of Orion 2
>pretty old, but rumor has it that it's still damn good if not best
>could be anon with nostalgia goggles
So, what do you think? I'm open for any other suggestions not listed.
Also, the closest thing to 4X games I've played
Alpha Centauri
>but it's only on one planet
Homeworld 1 and 2
>great game, but not really a 4X
Eve Online
>don't want to play 9999999 hours to feel like I've accomplished something, only to have it destroyed or taken from me. Never again.
Shameless bump.

Stellaris is decent with expansions, like most Paradox games.
Endless Space 1 and 2 are both garbage
Distant Worlds is great, but tough to get into
Unending Galaxy I have no knowledge of
Polaris I have no knowledge of
Gal Civ II is better than III, get that one unless they've massively improved it. Also, the dev is insane
Master of Orion 2 is the best and for good reason. It has not been surpassed in the Space 4X genre.

Robotics;Notes anime was mostly decent and otherwise good.
I probably should play the VN

>gameplay
>in a game where the director has already stated they are effectively starting from scratch as of now
>why are you recording my bing bing wahoos first?

Is he one of the most replaceable voice actors in history?
>>380804409
The 'bing' noises you hear in games are actually synthesized, they don't have a voice actor.
1. Your ranked solo MMR
2. Your favorite hero
3. Your favorite role
4. Your least favorite role
What does /v/ think of this man? Have you backed his epic space program yet?
Remember when they released a James Bond video game called "GoldenEye" that had absolutely nothing in to do with the 1997 film?
>>380804306
I like the tech-y looking sawn off, and the rail gun that shoots through walls.
thats the only positives I could say about this incredibly rushed and false advertised game.
>>380804306
I gotta wonder if this was originally going to be a new IP, but then decided to slap James Bond on it.
LOL

Nothing because there is no benefit to preordering video games.
Literally nothing.
I've never preordered a game before.
