I just find this game too frustrating to continue. I’m usually pretty good at not getting too annoyed at video games, but not with this one. It feels like there’s way too many variables in each round, and it doesn’t help that you have access to 5 people at a time to move. In Into the Breach it’s only 3 pilots you’re moving at a time, and it works in that game’s favor. Adds challenge, but works in perfect balance with the rest of the game. Here, I’m not really sure if it adds anything. It also doesn’t help that one wrong choice of who to move first could basically KO you in a way that seemed impossible (like pushing you five spaces into the void).This game also isn’t really meant for console either; the text is small, the game zooms out after like a chapter and it’s very disorienting (I couldn’t figure out how to zoom back in either).The tip menus also cover up the half of the screen, which makes me not want to use them. It also doesn’t help that the game basically randomizes your crew after every battle, which ended up costing me a quill (life), because I expected it to not just randomly change my MVP snail out of the crew!!! I was really looking forward to this, so I’m kinda disappointed with how it turned out. Maybe I’ll go back to it, but I doubt it.
