This reviews 0.97 not 1.0, right?

I think this was a good and fair review, well written. There is so much good about this game it is a shame there are so many little annoyances. Stardock has an excellent track record for continued support though, and the release date on this game feels a little arbitrary as I don't think this is a "finished" game, if such a thing even exists anymore. It's going to continue to get better not just through DLC and Expansions, but through consistent patching as well.

Oh definitely. Like I said in the review, I will be revisiting it at 1.01 to see if some of my accessibility concerns were fixed. So far I think 6 or so people from Stardock have interacted with me at least on an indirect level as it pertains to the game's UI issues. They know about my complaints. Whether they do anything (or, indeed, CAN do anything) to fix them is all up to Stardock.

Besides, it's not like I'm not going to keep playing the hell out of it once 1.0 goes live. I'm writing a Let's Play/guide for a very slow insane galaxy with 20 opponents, tons of minor races, and pirates galore.

As well as my other reviews, of course, but they don't matter here. :)
