The Trese brothers have never disappointed me and I think their graphics are charming.

Low budget doesn't mean bad. What's there is clean and well done, I'd just like to see what they could do with a AAA budget. I've barely started, but I like the options and diversity in the tactical missions. Unlike Zcom's simplistic arena battles, where the only interesting option is "how many enemies can I yeet off the map?"

I have to admit the yeeting off the map is one of the best features in the game - so satisfying to have some elite unit come out and you just toss it's ass off into the abyss

The problem is it's the packaging that makes the game "decent". Take away the Star Wars IP, the voice acting, the snazzy UE graphics and animations, and what's left? An indie game that no one would have noticed. The actual game, both the base building, and the tactical missions, just fall short when compared to X-com, Gears Tactics, Phoenix Point, etc.

There is a lot of truth in this statement. Without the SW shit going on, im afraid this would be a total dud. But, its in there and the SW shit gives it a charm.

and 2012 X-Com probably would have flopped if it was just some random strategy game without the X-Com name.
