Galactic Civilizations III v3.2 takes faction personality traits
into account, improves game AI, and more

We're launching a version update today that increases the effects of a civilization's personality traits on diplomacy, conversations, and what ships to build. The Intrigue AI has also hired an accountant to better manage its taxes, and we've made a few adjustments to the Heroes of Star Control: Origins DLC. More details on the changes are below!

Are save games from the prior version compatible with 3.2?

You can continue to play older saves.  However, not all of the changes are applied to older save games.

Do you have a date for when the update will be available on the wonderful world of GoG?

For the GOG folks out there,  a bit of news that you might have missed (there's been no chatter on the GOG forums as far as I can tell):

3.20 was briefly released yesterday.   On launch,  however,  the game crashes and/or can't find the menu font and all menus are blank rectangles.

It was pulled and refreshed back to 3.10 sometime this morning. 

GOG is not saying what is going on,  but presumably they are still working on it.   I think we will likely have it shortly.
