Sins of a Solar Empire®: Rebellion

Really fun space RTS and a good time if you’re into strategy games. Definitely one I enjoyed and would recommend giving a shot.

This game is showing its age and not in a good way. I cannot speak for vanilla because I have only ever played modded but I think my issues apply to vanilla, as they apply to the mods. Without Sins of the Prophets this game would have been forgotten to time. This game is not a 4X, as much as it like to pretend its like stellaris, stellaris does everything better. An argument could be made for space combat but its incredibly shallow across all mods. Everything which makes this game a 4X rather than a naval domination simulator are so incredibly barebones, barebones politics and trade really hurt this game. The only thing with flesh is the fleet combat and there's as much meat as a hamster. This game was great 10 years ago but there are space games that do what this game wants to do so much better. As it stands this is just an inferior Stellaris.

a lot fun, need to learn what's does what ect. then I will be better player with friends.

Awesome time sink

A great game to lose a few hours at a time. Well optimised, easy to understand, and remarkably addictive for a game older than some that will read this review. Highly recommend if your specs (like mine) aren't high enough for Sins 2
