edit: Ive been reading so much 40k that I got the title mixed up. This is regarding Marvel Midnight Suns by Firaxis.

Haven't played very much past the tutorial and im hoping it gets better but so far the gameplay feels like it was designed for mobile. There is a deck mechanic where your actions are based on the cards you draw with normal cards giving you resources that are used to play more effective "heroic" cards. The positioning options are fairly limited so it feels less like xcom and more like slay the spire with a bit of movement. Maybe it gets more complicated later but so far it looks like it will just be a grinder.

Visually it is very generic Unreal engine which isnt a strike against it but it isn't something its favor either.

There is the obligatory wokeness in the character creator with "body type" and the female faces are all manly.

The dialogue is obviously an attempt to ape the marvel "wit" but written by the C team of diversity hires so it leads to more sighs than chuckles.

Like I said I'm only about an hour in but so far haven't seen anything that makes me particularly hopeful. If it keeps going this way I doubt I'll be making it past the 2nd hour.
