Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
It won't do the insane long-term min/maxing some players are able to do - multiplayer is there for that, but it will play to the strengths and weaknesses of its factions.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Game is not very optimized, because my laptop runs pretty hot, for a game that has pretty basic graphics.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
WIth 14 unique factions, each one with different abilities and play styles and a randomised map on each play, give this game a TON of variety and replayability. 4 different resources to manage and multiple different research tracks keep you thoroughly engaged in each play through.
