the game is enjoyable, and if i didn't have other games that i wanted to play, i would have continued. but after beating the first faction (~7h of gameplay for me), i felt like i had seen everything the game had to offer.

the tactics gameplay is as good as ever, and i think the breach mechanic is a neat addition. the "board game"-esque strategy at home base is still fun, albeit a bit leaner than XCOM2. but the story (plus its delivery, mostly from static images) and the characters just didn't draw me in enough to keep going.
