Sorry, you can lock this thread, but I am just expressing my appreciation of this game. I love Sins and it has been a LONG time since I felt this kind of enthusiasm about a game. This game was a launch-day purchase for me (thanks to much pimping from the now defunct GFW Magazine and GFW podcast) but, to be honest, after playing it for a while I set it aside.
However, after the release of Entrenchement, WOW, I can't stop playing. I have literally put more hours into this game than my school work (thank god I am in my final semester of throw-away classes while I intern). I don't know why I feel the need to create a gushing post...part of it can probably be attributed to the 25+ hour game that I have played over the past month in my spare time (I stetched it out past the Victory screen...I wanted to rule the entire galaxy). I can not wait to see what your development team has in store for us with the next expansion.
I have been reluctant to play online because I know how it can be with RTS games when it comes to online play (it's all about winning quickly with the most effective strategy rather than playing the long drawn out chess match that could take days/weeks over the course of a few gaming sessions). I have been trying my hardest to spread the word about Sins to all my gaming friends, both online and in person. Keep up the fantastic work.
