Save Scumming shows Bad Game Design
Never played Commandos, so if that offends you stop reading now. I love stealth games like the Thief series and all the Metal Gear Solids 1-4, but have never played a RTStealthTatics until I bought this. I love Feudal Japan! I love the music and graphics! But everything from the controls to the gameplay is completely terrible! Why are the enemy cones not always visible? Why did my characters go there instead of here? Why did my perfectly orchestrated ambush go completely opposite of what I asked the characters to do? It's just a bad game, that's not fun. The fact that save scumming is encouraged proves this, like the designers new the player couldn't win their first try. Save scumming breaks immersion, so it's hard to get invested in the game. Do not buy this game unless you like be treat unfair.
