FAN ART

Story is interesting and fun.

Enemies all have own look and own stats and own movement to them to learn in order to beat them.

Weapons are cool as all have own stats and feel to them and some classes can equip multiple sets which is great as can have close quarters and bows and crossbows for range.

Skills are cool as can pick from two different trees to make own build to suit playstyle and can recruit more units so can make multiple different builds and all skills have own feel and uses to them.

Families that you can pick from all have own stats and own perks and own classes to pick from.

Difficulty options are nice as can pick to suit own style and even do hardcore for those who like big challenge but even on easy setting game is challenging.

Controls are nice and easy to understand as not alot of buttons or combos to remember.

Clunky controls that are fiddly on a controller in terms of movement and trying use actions and target feels clunky.

Not explained well made me confused as to what to do on some missions such as extracting at certain point got there but wasn’t clear to why hadn’t extracted and failed the mission.

Not feel connected with characters as can recruit new ones which made none of them feel special as can just recruit another of same type.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall story is interesting and fun with cool enemies that all have own look and own attacks and movement to learn in order to beat them and cool skills to make own build as can go into either one tree or mix it up to suit own playstyle and nice families to pick from offering own stats and own perks with nice easy controls to understand and nice difficulty options. However for £44.99, has clunky controls that are fiddly on a controller and some of the missions are not explained well and didn’t feel connected with characters as can recruit more troops mean made nothing special about any character as can just recruit another of a class or type.
