Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus

Cool little game. Pretty short, around 20-25 hours and it's a lower budget game but the combat is satisfying and playing the tech priests and progressing them is cool. Really good soundtrack, ok visuals but nothing amazing. At the start the game can be difficult but pretty fast you'll get better gear and talents that make you really strong. Thing I didn't like was the fact that you can't do all missions, you have a "timer" and choose missions that you want to run. I would have loved to finish all of them and collect 'em all. Good game, especially if you're into 40k

It's decent game. Pros.: characters, lore, story, upgrade system. Cons.: sometimes feels imbalanced. Some missions and choice-making do not make sense. Later missions were easy, while mid-game - very hard. Maybe it was the problem of how I upgraded my units. For WH40K fans it is a must-play game.

The game's audio and visual design and presentation are possibly some of, if not the most polished and high quality art my eyes and ears had the pleasure of being blessed by on a computer monitor - the game conveys the atmosphere and vibe of the Adeptus Mechanicus perfectly, and that's not even mentioning the "voice acting" of the tech-priests which manages to make them have actual personalities through muffled, grindy, distorted machine noises and computer beeps - the Omnissiah themselves might have blessed this game. There's a lot of love put into what the characters say and the flavor that appears throughout the game so any WH40k lore nerd will love it, but also any newcomer will be able to appreciate it and get interested in the world (or at least the Adeptus Mechanicus). The game on its normal difficulty is on the easier side after getting to grips with its mechanics, although I fail to see how this bothers people when there's literally 2 whole difficulty levels above normal, available from the get go... which are even selectable on the fly mid-campaign. Not only that but there's a fine-tuning difficulty menu ala the Pathfinder games where individual settings can be tweaked for optimal difficulty. Not like other tactical games' normal difficulties are some brutal test of skill and intelligence on the level of Ninja Gaiden, I still remember quite literally one shotting the final boss of Xcom with a sniper headshot on my first try after brainlessly one shotting everything in the final mission. Content-wise the game can feel a bit repetitive at times because of its choice of an oppressively grim dark color palette, purely Necron enemy roster which have extremely similar aesthetics to each other and the low variety of mission objectives (all of them basically being either kill or do something first and then kill, with the very rare "escape" or "survive for x rounds" mission). Considering the high level of polish and the extreme quality in the presentation of the 40k universe, the adjustable difficulty, straightforward focus on the gameplay and fun but relatively simple character customization between missions, this is an extremely good tactical game for people that are new to the genre especially. There's stuff here the sequel can improve - adding more depth to character building, adding more mission objective and visual variety, adding more enemy variety and so on, but this is such a solid and purely fun video game by itself nevertheless.

very good game it starts off a bit hard but later in the game when you get the high level gear its fun to smoke the necron lords with 20+ cannon blasts

Interesting game mechanics, but not very challenging when you figure it out. Fun though and well worth your time.

Praise the Omnisear, this game made me realise the weakness of my flesh. Already got new legs and eyes, augmented arms on the way. I feel certainty within my new body.
