    That 1996 damage at 2:22 is probably a reference to the release date of the first Metal Slug game (April 19, 1996).

      Yeah it's a very zippy tactics game, you're heavily rewarded for using all your movement points every turn.
      Some people may not vibe with that but personally I prefer it to the more cover heavy style. Got my fair share of slowly creeping from cover to cover baiting overwatch kills with XCOM.

      @@PotionSmeller okay, but like... is there any reason to not use all of your movement every turn? if you just get rewarded for using what was already something you'd want to use anyways, doesn't that just remove strategy? Like, with cover based systems, you have to pick and choose, weigh your pros and cons. Moving max distance every turn just seems like only pros.

      @@ihave2cows You still have to correctly position your units to maximize dmg like most tactics games and sync attacks are extremely important, so you often must balance between setting up for maximum dmg and generating defense/resources.
      Some builds can still break the game in its current state, but that's demos for ya.

    I heard the OG devs from the first three games are gone. Then there were new ones for MS4 & 5, but then closed the company due to low profit too. After that I have no idea, but it looks like the METAL SLUG TACTICS devs Honor the series with easter eggs & familair gimmicks, like the Dodge mechanic & increased Damage the closer You're between an enemy, what fullfills the Classic metal slug "run & gun" aspect, but in a tactic Game.
    Edit: you unlock more characters than these basic 4. Two addtional characters I think could be Trevor & Nadia from Metal Slug 4.

      The undo options, region setup, and timed map also feel very similar. Love to see it honestly; Into the Breach had a lot of great ideas but IMO lacked enough variety between and during runs, so we'll see how this game does in that regard.

      ​​​@@RetromationIs it? If it is the demo is kinda misleading. I'd much prefer if it's designed to be consistent as a homage to the arcade games, which is how the demo plays out. I died a few times to a specific stage but enjoyed working my way back up to it with the knowledge of the other stages I learned in my first run.
      If the final game's stage order is randomly generated from a pool I feel like it won't be nearly as fun.
      I want to get to the point where I have the early game completely nailed down and know exactly which moves to take to speed through it just from repetition.

    • @Retromation
      @Retromation  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, they state at multiple points on the steam page, and throughout all of the marketing that it is a roguelike. The demo might not have all the features that would imply it yet, but it is.
