What players think
The recurring themes across 236 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Plus, there's no real story addition, and the missions feel like filler content rather than a meaningful expansion.
And then there’s the soundtrack, one of the greatest in video game history, which sounds like Ministry crossed with Pretty Hate Machine era Nine Inch Nails.
The missions are so cleverly designed and fun and they are the main introduction to all new cool stuff you are getting with the game's progression.
Multiplayer, while basic by modern standards, was groundbreaking for its day, giving players the ability to test their tactics against human opponents and paving the way for the competitive RTS scene that would explode in the years to come.
The opening series of commercials before the main menu is straight out of Robocop.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 5 sampled reviews and is not shown.
