The Third Doctrinal War -- Stardock, Reiche/Ford, and Star Control

It’s not impossible to know: I wrote a whole bunch of words. Assume that I’m being genuine and honest – I don’t think I have given anyone cause to think differently. Furthermore, I didn’t play the game for just 1.4 hours – I’ve dipped into it on and off during the beta and played the prelude (or whatever it was called before release), but Steam was offline (due to my VPN) and/or glitched out, so the count isn’t anywhere accurate.

Well, don’t be angry. Honestly, I see no reason why you should be. It’s a 1,400+ word review where I explain, in detail, what I don’t like about the game and why. And hey, after some comments, I even went back and explained what I do like about the game. I strive to be fair: I have myself been at the receiving end of an unfair review, so I know what that feels like.
