Re-Legion without meaning
I was hoping for really deep strategies by leading masses of cultists with innovative tools and story. And unfortunatly nothing like this here. Indeed the game lacks crutial commands. As an exemple you can't give a simple order like holding a position and be able to set it permanently. You can't even create queues for fabrication of units to refresh your frontlines. You have to manually promote cultists and send them to the enemy. By talking about units (even if i haven't finished the game) they are pretty common and all with few hp except your prophet who can resurect very easily ( for other heroes their loss means a game over -_-) Meaning that strategies turns as this: make a big group of cannon fodder with few healers. Put your commanders behind with ranged units. Get a big group of hackers in support to build your frontline with sentry turrets with drones to see further. Your Prophet aggros enemies on your deadly turrets with ranged units as fire support. Enemy eliminated you can move your melee units foward. Destroy your turrets and repeat the process. All of this because human units have a short life span and the fact that you can't rally promoted units on a specific point (note that the process of recruit cultists has been automated but they will stay idle at your permanent base waiting to be promoted). Because even if the cyberpunk theme has been splashed all over this game (with nice little effects but nothing amazing) it feels like an old rts with peasants/hackers to make money/ build turrets, you collect mana/faith for units powers,.. Add to that an uninterresting story: You are Elion, an office drone who comes from nowhere and decides to help people. He meets new friends and TADA! He becomes a super badass cyber prophet who butchers his own followers as much as his enemies. And ofc they are numerous and in 2184 humankind is dumb. Even Dogmas (prophet skills) are bad, "mercy" to convert an enemy under 30% hp but gets a killtag ? Disapointing.
Is this helpful to you?
