This game got me back into MCU (along with Snap). Plenty is shared with XCOM, mostly the good stuff, and the card-based combat feels satisfying. There is almost too much game here, the campaign easily spanning over 50 hours. It can get a bit repetitive when you are just trying to progress the story. The dollhouse aspect is pretty great and varied, with a lot of unlockable costumes and color palettes to customize your heroes.

MechWarrior 2 was an awesome game, but since then the series has been mediocre at best. While this latest entry nails the vibes of 100 ton bipedal killing machines, it is not much of a video game. It is the modders, once again, who have transformed this half-assed effort by the developers to something exceptional. If there is one franchise besides Warhammer 40k that deserves better, it is BattleTech.
