A fun but unpolished gem
This game is for those who enjoy both tactical combat and stealth elements. It's not like Xcom2 where the stealth is there to set up positions before going loud, you want to sneak by most encounters in this game. You are often heavily outnumbered and limited uses on takedown abilities mean you'll have a hard time thinning out enemy numbers by the time you go loud. So you need to sneak around, maybe take out some critical guards with some takedowns, grab your target and get out. Run for the exit instead of fighting as defeating enemies in this game is rarely worth the benefit with the exception of a house scion, maybe. There's no base building in the strategic layer, but you have to pick missions against one of three houses and send single agents to gather resources/intelligence/allies. Doing a mission reduces a threat for a particular house but the other houses complete their tasks and increase their threat becoming more powerful at certain thresholds. Doing a mission with a scion present puts a powerful boss enemy in the mission. Fortunately the scion patrols in a way that often leaves them isolated where you can draw them away and/or ambush them alone. Defeating a scion reduces threat heavily. There are bugs and issues that will likely never be fixed. Sometimes when you try to draw a single enemy away they seem to get confused and run to the other side of the map. Drawing enemies away and engaging in combat sometimes draws other enemies in the map into battle despite not being nearby. Savescumming is a necessity for the stealth portions because of how wonky it can be. Stealth is such a heavy focus in this game yet your agents don't have any real way to improve their stealth abilities - no increased takedown uses or more effective stealth. So if you enjoy stealth, tactical combat and relatively long missions because of sneaking around - this might be a good game for you. If you don't then avoid it, it will frustrate you.
