What is Endless Space?

You know, it looks real cool, I read through it, and I like what's said in it, but it keeps looking odd to me. Is it customizable/personalizable. Is it open world, is it like ChosenSpace but 3D, or is it like Call of Duty where you spawn into a battlefield and fight (Though, CoD isn't really my game). I read you make your own universe or something? I'd be bought if I could create and/or terraform planets for resources and build ships in real time in a real time open world, that'd be awesome. So really, what is this? help describe it with TPS, RTS, MMO, etcetera

Its Civilization in space. So turn-based strategy game with a technology tree and empire building.

So your upgrades only work when you go into the fighting mission? When you start a new fight everything restarts? Civilization wasn't really my game either, played it, with friends, but never got into it.

I'm not really sure what you mean. Over the course of a single game you might have hundreds of 'fights'. You upgrade your ships over the entire course of the game. A single game could last for days.

If you didnt' like civilization, or tried/liked galactic civilizations. Then you most likely will not enjoy this game =(
