Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
87 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Game does get a bit chuggy the longer you play, for obvious reasons but beyond that the gameplay is solid and still has a lot of replayability.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
actually gas game for $10 CAD. relatively feature dense, lots of customization, very stable (seen 1 crash in multiplayer), great multiplayer (no having to resync like a paradox game!) hard to say in a review what it is I like in specific, as this games detail dense enough to be hard to explain.
Crashes
Players who bring up Crashes mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I haven't experienced a crash yet, and the game only starts to slow down towards the 2300s with massive armies (I think between myself, Giga-Nato and Giga-China+India there were ~100 million troops or so).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Underneath the chunky graphics and some balancing issues is a true gem of the genre that is both fun in its current state and has a promising future.
