Spread managed democracy across the stars. Inform the bots and bugs of their ignorance.

Fly around for minutes, get fuel, time clock changes, adjust where you are going, fix time clock, go where you want to go. Spend hours just meandering about "cruising" where when you get better ships so you cruise slower, taking more time. I just wanted to have a trade empire. This game isn't paced-well making it not fun.

I have a lot of hours in other management games, so I appreciate that some things take time. This... I just don't feel should take many hours to get to where I can have trade routes or produce effectively. I'm just disappointed that I expected to have something where I could just trade and produce per the introduction rather than hours of flying around slowly, stopping to avoid a pirate that is clearly too strong, getting kicked out of the main map, then having to reopen the main map to know where I am going and what I was doing.

I'm simply disappointed in what I expected of this game. I'm sure this game will be fun for some.
