No, he is actually right. This game does indeed suffer from the same problem as Endless Space!What a ridiculous sentiment.
In Endless space the planet types became pointless past the early game because improvements gave much bigger yields. Same is true for BE: Once you have overcome the early game the trade routes and improvements like Academies, Manufactories, Biowells and Terrascapes render the terrain utterly pointless. In my games I always ended up with 50% Terrascapes, 30% Academies, 20% ressource improvements.
And late game is indeed just about queueing techs to boost your affinity and unlock the Exodus gate. Most of the outer techs are actually pointless because affinities unlock the important stuff like victory conditions and unit upgrades.
