which game should I get?

Recommended Posts

So trying to decide on a turn based 4x game to get.  About to be able to get an actual up to date computer and have money to support strategy gaming again.  Time to play will be limited so want to get the best one.  My favorite strategy game of all time is still Sid Meir's Alpha Centauri - for both the strategic depth but honestly more so for the fact it has characters and story.  I still remember the names and characters of each of the leaders (Morgan, Zackarhov, Lang, Miriam).

 

Passed AC, Civ 6 is a favorite as is Endless Legend.  On endless legend though the fact the story for each faction really ended the same didn't do it for me.  Looked at Stellaris for a long time but the lack of what I consider real win conditions - say like building a ship that goes to another galaxy - puts me off.  Old World I have this problem with as well.  Rouge Like mechanics and randomness in my strategy games I don't think I would like so against the storm is out (though could be convinced otherwise).  Looked very closely at Zephon especially after some of Rock Paper Shotguns coverage but man are the graphics old school.  Thought about Age of Wonders but it seems to be several short stories rather than one long one...really want a good sci-fi one ...  would love alpha centauri with updated mechanics and graphics ... sigh.

 

Thoughts?
