Could be better
This review is from the perspective of a recent first-time player. If you've played Commandos before, this game is just an artificially and unnecessarily more challenging version with a different coat of paint and new mechanics. The difficulty wasn't as much of an issue as the awful overall design. NPC behavior is bad: dead bodies won't trigger alarms but peanuts or a playing card lying around sets the map on alert. The Wild West setting is excellent: it's fun, engaging, and the sole motivation to complete the game. Yet it simultaneously brings the setting down by having characters be stereotypes seen in old Westerns. Technical issues were present immediately: severe mouse lag, double-clicking, and actions in general weren't always registered correctly. I eventually experienced this weird lagging issue that I haven't seen in the GOG community but is present on the Steam side. This game has cascading technical issues that absolutely matter in a real-time game. Having recently played and enjoyed Commandos before trying Desperados, go for Desperados if you want a game that feels like a subpar fan mod of Commandos. Otherwise, this game has too much nostalgia flattery that drowns out its criticisms.
