    Ok this is where anybody can say anything about Spore they don't like

    As for me I overall liked the game, but one thing that I thought would not be a problem (but then again i understand why) is:

    The animation - seriously I want my creatures to walk and certain way especially if I give them no legs so they will have to crawl like a snake. Seeing my retarded creatures animate kills the experience for me.

    Seriously though, I don't like how everything is automatically made symmetric on creatures.  Also, the gameplay is very basic and repetitive.

    Yeah seriously for me I think you should have more control over what your entire race is doing in the space stage instead of just your ship.

    So far I am only in the Civ stage, but I really do not like how everything controls.  And there is no setting to mes with mouse sensitivity or scroll speed of any kind.  That's the biggest turnoff.  But the game is so amazing that I'm putting up with it anyway :D

    Yeah it really doesn't take off until the Space stage anyway and then you're confined to your spaceship.
    Sadly the space stuff is only good for short game sessions.

    After a couple of days of making creatures I found little tricks to get my creatures to behave and animate a little bit more like how I want them to.

    My latest grip now is actually how the game forces you to get out of the water. I know it was a simple game in the water like flow was, but I sorted wanted my creature to stay underwater and evolve to giant squid people building atlantus or something. Too bad I gotta go above the damn water.

    I don't like the fact that spore won't run on my computer.
