-Tech tree feels like an afterthought
Just imagine XCOM meets Total War. This is a grand campaign, hexagon based game. When battle is eminent, you can manually play the mission and be presented with an XCOM style turn based battle system. This is quite the gameplay combination. I am a fan of both game series and it is nice to essentially get both games in one package.
The amount of content is extraordinary. There are dozens of different commanders to choose from, a good number of different factions and an endless supply of maps due to randomisation. There are some campaign missions that will assist you with learning the ropes with multiple factions.
The audio design is well put together with great background music that does not get tedious, respectable voice acting and nice sound effects. Blasters feel meaty, acid weapons hiss through your speakers and laser attacks create vibrations through your subwoofer you can actually feel.
This is one of those games that will take you quite a few hours to get through the entire thing. Thanks to its replayability, you might not even have to worry about the DLC. I have no opinion on the DLC since I do not own them.
My only complaint with the game that is worth mentioning is that the tech tree feels a little like an afterthought. For the most part it is technologies that I never even bothered using. The main thing I was looking for was good battle abilities (only a handful) and unlocking new units.
