I'm looking forward to MoO3. It will be the first game purchase for me since LoD. :lol:
I played MoO2 extensively, developed a tactic that could "crush all opposition beneath my heel", setting stupidly high scores on the upper difficulties and mourned the lack of a final patch to solve some remaining bugs. Nice game though. I really loved it.
I never played MoO, nor for that matter did I ever bother to download it's predecessor (Yes there was an Orion turn-based strat game with some corney name that escapes me for the moment - think it had "Antares " in it - that preceded the Master of Orion series). I also played Master of Magic a lot (MoO's sister game with Elf and Orc armies, sorcerers, giffins etc.) and I still drag it out from time to time for a play.
It's a pity Simtex keeled over. They made fantastic games. Another victim of feature creep. :(
