Default SE5 gets some... \"recognition\"

http://www.somethingawful.com/index.php?a=4235

Scroll on down about 2/3 of the way... look, if you consider SomethingAwful "mainstream", SE5 is getting some mainstream recognition, even if it's not in the least positive

Looks like an accurate review to me.

The metacritic summary of reviews so far:

http://www.metacritic.com/games/plat...pace%20empires

The user ratings look like typical rent-a-shill comments because even the biggest fan of the game would say it's anything but a train wreck at this stage.

Yup.

I had a great time with SEIV and was eagerly looking forward to SEV. The developer here has made a mind-bogglingly ill-advised move to release the game in this condition. Let's hope it's not fatal to the SE line.
