look, i LOVED this game. i played so much of it nonstop for hours and hours and hours- hours spent mainly in single player with a handful of private lobbies as well. it was fun, plain and simple; immersive, vast, and full of unknowns and with so, so much replayability.

The story that comes from each run, whether you win or lose on the galactic stage, is more memorable than any game I have encountered.

While still have a deep rich system for resource management, planet management, and many other factors, I find this to have an easier learning curve.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The most fun I personally had playing this game is doing a coop campaign with a friend that subscribed to paradox in order to try out the dlc's (as long as one person owns the dlcs, if he makes the lobby you gain access to them as well).
