Have on my wishlist but would have to see overwhelming positive reviews to want to buy.  My fear was they focused too much on the cartoon graphics and not enough on core mechanics and options.

That's always the concern with this series, although they claim and detailed simulation engine under the cartoons.  No idea why they ever thought those graphics would be best to try and sell this as a serious campaign engine.  Regardless, pretty cheap so I will likely pick up at some point, there is others out there but I find them too overwhelming and too dry.

...and let me guess...it will include some kind of an update that will not be provided to those who bought early access on Epic. Stardock and Wardell screwed everyone over like this with Gal Civ IV.

I thought I read on steam one of the developers indicate people who bought on epic prior to the release announcement yesterday would 99% likely get a steam key.  Of course, he didn't say 100%:)

That would be amazing, but hard to believe given the whole point of Epic funding development so people to use their platform. I guess Epic could not stop them but I assume it would be against the spirit of the agreement. Besides, how would they distribute the keys? I guess by linking your epic account to sins website directly.

This wouldn't be the first time a game was on a different platform (or moved to Steam) and then keys were given out for Steam so don't suspect it's a problem, although could be work on their end.  All I can say is a developer within the Steam forum stated it was their goal to provide the keys to people who bought prior to May 1st and was 99% sure it would happen.  Guess we will see.
