Doesn't really matter -- you'll have plenty of resources, money, research, production, etc. regardless of where you build (more than you can use, even on harder difficulty levels).

Animations are done well. : Soundtrack is pleasant. : Strategies will make you think about your future plans : Active AI (beasts and other factions) on the planet adds a sense of realism : Mistakes so far haven't been too game breaking.
