great atmosphere

i was looking for an fps to play the hardcore way, this is however a controller based 3rd person mess, with more cinematics than gameplay.

this "Aces of the deep"-veteran approves :)

i dont know man ...
this game feels more like a tech demonstration than an actual game.
everything looks good, detailed, shiny, blurry, etc., but if you want to do something else other than just looking around, like moving, jumping, driving, aiming, it feels so clumsy.
the fights are ... i dont know what to say ...
sometimes youre able to snipe enemies from the distance and kill them without effort, or you getting overwhelmed by them.
none of them is enjoyable.
the way of healing while fighting is: you just run away/hide and after some seconds the HP bar starts to refill quickly.
there is no possibility to save, there are however checkpoints at pointless locations (far from the next actual action or in mids an already ongoing fight).
Mission objectives/narration are many times not helpful at all, and there is no other point to roam or explore other than find the next location you have to be to proceed further.
Loots getting pointless, since you can unlock and upgrade your desired weapons pretty early.
Indie games used to be ugly still amusing, but this is the opposite.
Sofar i havent enjoyed playing this, but im not giving up, so i might change this review later to make it more accurate.

update: ive finished and i feel i was scammed with this :(
to the devs: make the maps full of loot and more enemies, that might help

Im a fan of the Dune lure ... books/movies/games ...
i avoided to write my first thoughts as steam asked for a review for the first few times, cause i did not wanted to say anything bad ...
but the time has come.
this game, with all its units, resources, researches, diplomatics, spying operations, mapview, UI is a mess.
all these advanced things are not really useful,

if you want kill an enemy outpost, you have to
- A: constantly build (max out) your army
- B: send them to the other end of the map to attack the enemy outpost (they die while causing some damage)
- C: GOTO A (till the outpost is killed, like in 2 hours)

The other objectives are not fancyer either:
Assassinate enemy leader:
- A: assign 3 spies to the enemy
- B: start assassination operation
- C: wait till your operation fails and your agent is captured
- D: GOTO A

its boring
