I know this game seems like something I'd adore especially since I've made the previous videos on Radio Commander, but it was always best when you didn't see beyond the veil - when you thought you had actual options and tactical choices, before realising that most things were pre-scripted. Radio General feels like someone took the concept and nailed the execution, while Radio Commander feels like an amazing concept with poor execution. As for this new title? Well, the change in dev team isn't inspiring so far, especially given this is their first commerical video game, and the mission design being 90 americans and 10 tanks versus hundreds of Japanese defenders and equal tanks (the US invaded Tarawa with 35k soldiers and 18k marines against a garrison of just 2.6k Japanese soldiers) along with the punishing supply restrictions, inability to resupply and general lack of any tactics beside "blob with my entire force to maximise damage and therefore minimize return damage" made this demo feel like a big miss.
