Overall the game is average. Some of it was enjoyable but it is not a well managed, fine tuned and curated title. It feels messy and unpolished. The pace is not right (the game should have been twice shorter, you are stuck with regular weapons too long etc...), the exploration is not done well and is a chore, lots of tedium and repetitiveness, back and forths. The camera is regularly too close. The base brings nothing being a walkable area compared to a city screen on HoMM, except wasting time. The global experience is variable. Base tower defense is a bit annoying and doesn't add anything. Some moral choices. The units roster is nice and varied. Combat is ok. Monster size is a big problem at the end when you get large units of 3 to 7 hexagons, they will be blocked by terrain and blockades very frequently. I disliked that the enemy unit stacks go higher than yours. The main character keeps looking like an augmented hiker outside of combat irrespective of the mech armor equiped (that does change your appearance in fights).
I'm still going with a recommendation rather than not because I got twice the price in hours and I didn't have a bad time, I was rushing to finish it towards the end though.
