Looks like maybe a remake and not a reimagining.  Looking forward to see what they have come up with.  It says more to come at E3 which is next week.

I was hoping for a redo on MOOIII.

From its Pre-Order Info page: "Over 20 solar systems with more than 100 unique stars for the taking"

Those are much smaller numbers than the ones in Master of Orion II.  :-\

With so much more opportunity of DLC...:(

QFT.

I like the idea of DLC as expansions.  As in.. adding more content to a complete base game we enjoy.

But all those old arguments about developers cutting back the base game content in favor of DLC sales has been coming true.

I am a little skeptical, but I am glad something is in the works.

I am a little confused with the game's scale. 20 star systems? I guess we will find out eventually.

How can there be 100 stars but only 20 solar systems?  Doesn't sound right.

Just scroll down the page I linked to using the vertical slider on the right of the browser window. You don't have to register.

Am I missing something?  If I scroll all the way down, I just see "Be one of the first to pre-order!"  But no other info.  If I click that, I'm then asked to register.  I was hoping to see details of price and platform etc.
