EDIT 9/13/14:

Uber can't be serious with this. This game is NOWHERE Close to finishing this game. It is buggy, laggy, and missing some features. Though the game is still immensely enjoyable, I can't reccomend it in it's current state. Give it a month or two, then maybe you should buy it, IF it is fixed. I'm sorry but it's much too early to come out of early access.

Planetary Annihilation is an unfinished game. Bugs riddle the game and balancing still needs to be done along with adding more content. That said, this game already has an enormous amount of content to staisfy you for a LONG time. My biggest problem with the game so far is the lack of a save button, and if it bothers you, the lag. The game lags a bit on medium (still looks really good) on my GTX 560 TI. The AI rushes you before you have time to react even on easy, but once you play (and lose) a couple of games, you get used to it and you pick up speed and devise new strategy. In the beginning you will basically only be defneding by setting up walls around your settlement and placing lots of cannons on the inside to shoot outwards while keeping your walls in perfect shape using your fabrication (object placing) bots. I have still not seen much of the orbital combat (it's a little clunky at the moment), but when I manage to get off my planet when i'm overun and escape to a nearby moon, and build up a fleet larger than every army put together on earth now, I think i'll be immensely proud, and you will too. But the best part is launching moons into each other, and DESTROYING them! If only there were asteroid belts to play with...

I was VERY worried about buying this for it's large price even on sale, it's safe to say that I am really happy with my purchase, and don't regret it at all. If you are a Total War fan, or a fan of any strategy game (Civilization, Europa Universalis IV, etc.) I am extremely confident you will enjoy this game immensely.

It'll only get better, right?

tl;dr: BUY IT.

Excellent Game. Attempts to blend Dinos and Humans and does it almost perfectly. The game can get boring after a while though with the lack of a ranking and unlock system. Great game overall.
