MODERATORS
The game is basically a dumbed down version of stellaris with TNG flavor.
Nothing wrong with that, but having played the original it is very unappealing.
You say it's Stellaris dumbed down. I say it's Stellaris without the fat, dead weight and overcomplication. Stellaris is up its own ass with the level of management and absurd resources and everything else. So many different currencies and resources and different stats and buildings and fucking planets and everything. It never felt intuitive to me and feels functionally impossible to play. Nevermind enjoy. Every menu you open is another deluge of information that feels like you need like 5 years of logistics experience to even comprehend. I've got a couple hundred hours in it and I still haven't figured out most of the game. Doesn't help that because the game is so needlessly complex the tutorial seemed to have been planned out by a lobotomized chimp. Oh great. One of 45 popups that occur in the first 5 minutes, overwhelming you with information that you won't remember, and then never being mentioned when actually maybe useful.
Infinite is not Stellaris dumbed down, it's just made for the average gamer when Stellaris very very very much isn't.
I think that you have got to learn and come to accept that people have different tastes. Stellaris certainly can be too difficult for some people, but that doesn't take away from its brilliance.
