Such a great, classic RTS. Recommended, BUT unfortunately the online multiplayer seems broken right now.

Very cool game. Some UI/gameplay oddities, but overall great!

EDIT: I've got to change this to a negative review unfortunately. You will probably like this game and it's probably a better experience if you play it singleplayer. I played as Beast in a 4p coop game. It was pretty terrible. The game is obviously well made, but the coop gameplay is extremely disappointing. After 30 hours, I have probably spent 75% of my time waiting, 15% of my time missing my turn because I had a negative effect on me like sleep, 9% of the time casting abilities just to keep me alive, and 1% or less of my time doing something interesting and cool. It's been an incredibly boring experience. Maybe other classes are better, but playing as Beast has left a really bad impression on me. Other issues I've experienced are: Beast's story is boring, I hate being stuck in dialog boxes, especially if I didn't ask for it, looting is tedious to manage in coop, camera control issues, no clear explanations for things, weird UI/UX issues here and there, you'll finally get a turn in combat and then some little thing you didn't notice messes everything up, etc. It almost feels unfinished in some regards. Although like I said, this is probably pretty good in SP because then you get to control all the different characters yourself. I can see where that could help a lot with the overall experience.

This game did not work for me. Steam installs a game launcher which then installs the game. You need to setup an Ankama account which worked, but once in-game it did not recognize my credentials and errored out. It wouldn't let me try again and offered a link to a website where I could login and "activate" my account. I tried that instead, but the website just said "no email found" even though I was logged in on another Ankama website under those credentials. The only thing I can think of is that the user credentials are stored in multiple places and needs time to transition/migrate over. Definitely can't recommend this since it didn't work.

Fun game, especially in coop. It is definitely buggy though and feels like it may have been rushed. I'm also surprised the developer hasn't fixed some of the issues or put more polish on considering how long it's been out. Overall mechanics are pretty good although after playing Pavlov it feels a little simplistic. Free movement works fine. You teleport up and down ladders though. Aiming guns felt realistic and there's quite a few choices, mostly in terms of pistols though. I liked the mask feature and being able to explore houses and cars along the way. Normal is too easy, I recommend playing on Hard. Even that wasn't too bad. If you exit coop mid-way through the game, it will not save your weapons when you come back to play another day. Connecting to my friend was pretty easy for coop. If you're left-handed like me you can switch which hand is holding the gun which is nice. Overall a fun VR experience, but I'm disappointed/surprised that the dev hasn't put more love into the base game. It could use one more pass of polish to really make it a great game.

So far so good! Reach is fairly short, but it was fun to run through the coop experience again. Can't wait for the next releases!

Game is working great for me so far, loads reasonably fast, no major bugs yet, runs smooth on my GTX 1070. Not sure why so many people are having issues.

Amazing gem of a game, especially for the coop with your friends. If you haven't played you're missing out.

This was working great when it originally came out, but they must have abandoned it. It still works, but barely.

Just finished the first campaign and, wow, that was great! I am loving this game. It feels a lot like Banished but the extreme weather mechanic is such a great touch. I never felt at ease with my city, I was always battling to survive and I really enjoyed that challenge. The thing I didn't like about Banished was that once you figured out the game it was too easy. Most of my cities ended up the same and I always "won". This was much harder. I loved having to make hard decisions one after the other in an effort to survive. The ending was satisfying and the time-lapse thing was a great touch. Nice work 11 bit studios!

This is a really neat game with some clever ideas. I didn't have any expectations going in because I didn't know what it was but it exceeded them marvelously. Definitely recommended.
