      I think once you've completed the introductory mission you'll have a better idea. It would be worth playing one of the other game modes (weekly challenge or survival) if you want to be a little more prepared for the campaign though. Great game in any case!

      I played it on PC, but perhaps somebody else would be able to chime in. The only real issue with this style of game on a console is that using a gamepad would be pretty slow compared to a mouse. Add a mouse and I think you'd be set.

      @@TalonGaming_YT it honestly is great. Although it's slowly been rolling out on newer games on console it's starting to get implimented in more mainstream games, the most notable being cod. This being notable as the playerbase is HUGE and exposes more and more consoles players to the benifits of kb+m gameplay.
      Hopefully this drums up more support for more kb+m compatability on xbox as the series s has basically become Microsofts version of it's own proprietary mini gaming pc for people who don't have the option to drop a boatload of cash on building an actual desktop pc.

      No, it's single player only. There are challenges which you compete against other players on the leaderboard, but that's it. The game is still an easy 60+ hours of gameplay though, for just the campaign.

      No problem, glad you found the video useful. To be able to play a bit more casually, a save feature (mid scenario) would have been fantastic! It's still a great game, and pretty addictive, but a save feature would be a great quality of life upgrade!

    The developers changed "mankind" to "humankind" because they felt "mankind" was sexist. Off-putting that a videogame is tackling "issues" like these. But one word doesn't ruin a game, I'll definitely try this one out.

    • @TalonGaming_YT

    Dynamic background audio sucks, just keep it low so we're not constantly adjusting for your voice.
    Too much noise, feels like I'm listening to two videos simultaneously.
    Edit: Tf is this singing shit? Is that the actual OST? Or is it some random song?

    • @TalonGaming_YT

      Noted.
      The singing parts were from a song at the end of the game from what I remember.
