Pretty disappointing remake all around. I'll start by naming the things that were done well:
1. Very good music remixes
2. CO designs are pretty good
That is unfortunately all the good I have to say. Now for the bad:
1. The artstyle is a massive step down for Advance Wars and Wayforward. Even if you can deal with the cheap plastic artstyle, the game has a problem with units being indistinct from each other.
2. The AI is somehow much worse than the original games.
3. The game launched with several bugs and I'm not sure if they've even been fixed and I don't care to find out.
4. The multiplayer we got was incredibly disappointing and basically an afterthought.
I don't understand why you would ever play this over Advance Wars By Web. It's a shame that this is probably the last time this franchise will ever see the light of day.
