I had a perfect start game on my first run after downloading overlord. That is freakin rare. I had big worlds with good habitability. Lots of room to grow. Friendly empires when I did encounter them and started a federation. I expanded almost half the galaxy without a fight and then discovered a corner with a dozen or more systems that was locked behind a single chokepoint controlled by the one marauder empire in the game and behind them was a fanatic purifier who couldnt get out. It was beautiful. Top it off, a little further was the crystal entity starbase, which is the only way I know of to get the pure crystal hulls. I have only seen that thing once before.
I took my time, built my economy, put a massive starbase next to the chokepoint so even when the marauders occasionally came after me, they could only go through that starbase and it shredded them every time. I had a huge hyper relay system running the length of my empire and was just about to hit the crystal entity with the federation fleet my allies built for me. (Nothing like a free fleet huh?) And then....crash. Log on again, immediately crash, every stinking time. Had to delete the save game and it hurt my heart. I will likely never see such a beautiful game like it again. Thank you soooooo much paradox.
Oh and lets not forget how much the devs care about us console players. Lets see....nope still havent answered any of these bug reports since march. I guess thats why they put us over here instead of letting us use the report bug form. Easier to ignore us. Apparently our money is no good here.
