Amazing story to tell and so few people probably are aware that this story/event actually did happen.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
123 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Giving out assignments and interacting with characters’ needs and abilities can be a little fiddly, but with a little scouring of the menus, this gameplay becomes generally intuitive.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
84 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I would highly recommend this to anyone that enjoys CoH combat and also has fantastic story telling and a rewarding management system.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The visuals, sound, and writing all come together to create an atmosphere that is immersive, melancholic, and emotionally resonant.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Lets start with the technical state of the game - even tho there are moments of instability and slow load times, in 30+ hours I encountered only 2 or 3 crashes (which might have been caused by Radeon drivers more than the game), the game looks and sounds pretty good, has quite nice voice acting and cut scenes.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Seamless transition between the overworld, Train management menu, town markets, and battles.
