The game has many difficulty levels which not only add immesurable amounts of replay value, but also caters toward those who are masters of strategy as well as the novice more interested in the story, and everything in-between.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Its 2D graphics may not rival modern high-budget strategy games, but the art direction effectively communicates the gritty science fiction atmosphere while keeping battlefields easy to read during intense engagements.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
-The tech tree and squad customization options are vast, if you did what i did and added pictures to the roster of pilots you can have a 100% unique and fully customized squad that can take to the battlefield and do whatever you build them to do.
