Sword of the Stars is a solid 4X game that I recommend to fans of simpler games, or perhaps newcomers. For people who want more control over their empire, there are better options. SotS is like MoO1, so if you preferred the MoO2 you may want to pass this one by.

Star Ruler provides all the ingredients for a fair 4x space strategy game but fails in many ways in providing solid, interesting and fun features. But if you're a hardcore fan of the genre probably you'll want to give it a try.
