I'm gonna keep it real with you guys. This game is everything that XCOM wishes it could be. No base building which is a shame, but it nails open world turn based combat better than any other game.

Balance and progression is perfect since you're constantly trying to finish that next mission so you can get a minor upgrade which might save one of your bros from permanent death.

In particular the threat of permanent death keeps things constantly interesting and makes it feel like walking on a razor edge. But unlike a roguelike, you aren't expected to die, if you make the right moves and character choices, you can keep everyone alive. Is it bad luck or bad planning when things go south?

New gold standard when it comes to turn based games.

Yooo, this sounds awesome! I've been wanting a new turn-based game for ages. Gonna have to check it out. So glad there's no base building, lol. I'm too lazy for that
