Gameplay is slow and repetitive, but the story is excellent. I stopped halfway through and watched a let's play on youtube instead; this was an excellent decision.
The same bland gameplay as the first one, with an unbelievable level of polish, but a much less compelling story. Made it about 2/3s of the way and stopped.
The best head to head strategy game there is, with an excellent rating system, UI, and ability to watch other matches. All $500+ of sets can be rented for less than $3/month.
Fun as a teenager, and again as an adult using mods. I've had so much fun with this game in my lifetime, but it's mostly just a sandbox for modders to make good content.
Great core gameplay loop, funny and surprisingly fun strategy. Not really anything special though, and they didn't randomize the events for some strange reason so every playthrough is the same. Fun to stream.
