“I like strategy sims and bought it because 'real-time combat' sounded good. If it's actually turn-based I'll refund, and if the pacing drags I can't stick with it. The gangster setting is appealing, but if it's slow I'll just wait for GTA6.”

“I liked the idea of mixing management with tactical brawling, reminds me of Omerta with real blood. But I'll wait a few days to see if it doesn't turn into that infinite loop of clicking upgrades with no soul. If there's real build depth and the events actually change things, I'm in.”
