So for you folks who have played Rebellion, could you go back to playing Trinity alone, or would the lack of all the stuff Rebellion added make it seem dull or frustrating? (As an example I could never go back to playing Age of Empires II without its expansion - it just adds too much neat stuff. so am I missing out by playing Trinity alone? Ought I bite the bullet and get 'em all? I hate the idea that I'm 'missing out' on cool features, but if they're meant to be played more like a series (first one then the other) I'd rather do that (since I have about $2 in spending money at the moment, heh). But Rebellion, despite the fact that it has beefier system requirements (a small concern of mine - can a laptop with a good processor and a fuckton of RAM handle these games, even with just an integrated GPU?), is listed as a 'stand-alone expansion', not a sequel.
It holds Trinity, adds new content and is a stand-alone game. Now finally comes Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion (Rebellion), which is not an expansion. And then there was Trinity to bind the two with the base game into a convenient package. Find best deals on Steam, Uplay, Origin, PS. Not that diplomacy was non-existent before, but it was a bit scarce and pointless. Normally, when faced with a good series, I start with Game #1 (and its expansions), then go to #2, and continue on in that manner.
