Disappointing. I finished the tutorial and the first mission and the gameplay seems really passive. You only control one character, not a whole squad, and that one character automatically fires at everything. You move him around but you don't even need to select what to shoot at. At one point I simply had to wait for a helicopter and I wasn't even doing anything. I was sitting there watching my character automatically blast away at everything. My entire role throughout the mission was right-clicking towards the objective. That's literally all I did in the mission. And then it congratulated me for completing the mission as though I had actually done anything.

In Warhammer Dawn of War II, you manage a whole squad. You choose where each squad member goes and you prioritise targets. The positioning would often be really important and would depend on the terrain, the enemy types, the abilities of your characters themselves. That game was fun. In this one, I already don't feel like continuing.

Cool idea but disappointing on everything it tries to do. Makes me regret my determination on finishing games.
Glitches everywhere, everything is barely working and really janky, everything is as basic and unimpressive at everything, no consequence whatsoever to anything, just a billion auto-generated copy-pasted survival missions with careful no-fun-allowed builds and unpredictable difficulty spikes on top of jank. Multiplayer experience may save it but progression for MP is broken and forces obscene grind, so there's much better stuff around. Even nukes are disappointing. Even gigantic infestation spots are really just damage sponges. Even bosses are just move and shoot.
To mentally endure a full campaign you have to degrade it by thinking of it as an ATTEMPT at a SURVIVORS-like game with XCOM progression and resource management. It's still bad though, because even the XCOM inspired stuff is poorly made.
Too bad, first game looked like it attempted to scratch an itch that this one isn't even trying to scratch

BEST RTS I HAVE EVER PLAYED!
