Looking for game suggestions

[KentState]

Not sure if such a thing exists, but thought I'd ask.

Looking for a game that has the follow elements:
Space or sci-fi
Starcraft type gameplay
Civ type gameplay
Unit and base building
Diplomacy/different race and factoins
Discovery
Long campaign
Flexibility in not winning a battle doesn't mean losing the game

I know it's a lot to ask for, but really want something that I can spend 2-3 hours at a time macro/micro managing that goes towards a much longer campaign. I like the Civ games, but there isn't enough discovery and the game feels very confined. Maybe Stellaris comes close? The reviews are so mixed which makes me hesitant.

Stellaris is solid IMO, check out the Endless series as well (specifically endless space and legend). Legend is kind of a mix of 'high fantasy' and sci-fi (think powered armor, techno-enchanted swords, etc).

Maybe Distant Worlds: Universe.

Do you have starcraft 2?

Have you tried Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion? It's a "4x-RTS" and sounds like it might be what you're looking for:

The Master of Orion reboot? Haven't played it myself, may not even be in true release form yet, not sure. But potential is there for what you're looking for.
