Satellite Reign

I'm 47, I played the Old Syndicate games. This isn't a direct rip off, but definitely a cousin. I played it and finished it in Pre-Access. Outside of a few small bugs at the time, thoroughly enjoyed the game. Recently, I'm doing a play through again, and while things are familiar, still having a blast doing the missions and getting the gear. Haven't ran into any show stopping bugs.
They need to do more of this universe and game play. My money is guaranteed!!!

Picked this game up in the Australia Wild Fire Humble Bundle and thought I'd give it a go and I'm really happy I did. This game surprised me in a lot of ways, from the open world with cyberpunk asthetic to the real time combat with unique game mechanics. The squad based gameplay is super fun and each unit plays a specialized role.
The game can be difficult at times due to the real time combat and unrelenting enemies, especially if you go in loud. It does compensate for this through the cloning system though. You'll always have fresh clones for respawns available and you don't really lose anything other than time. I will say that the hacker will be prioritized early and then later into the game the infiltrator will be your go to and can sometimes solo entire compounds but I don't think its too big of a deal since it is the late game and the infiltrator will be almost maxed, or maxed with the proper gear. Stealth is almost always the best option but this doesn't leave the soldier useless to his unique version of hacking.
The game also has some bugs, nothing that ruins the game so far and not to often. A few times I've had characters fall through the floor, go invisible, or clip through a wall but this has happened probably like 4 or 5 times in total and I can usually get them out somehow or just revert back to the most recent autosave and lose virtually no progress. Although there is one bug that you can abuse consistently that allows you to just clip right through doors without hacking them. Other than that, there is no game breaking bug I've found, it's the only one I've been able to reproduce 100% of the time and if you use it constantly then it ruins an entire game mechanic.
Overall I've had an amazing time playing this game and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes strategy games or the cyberpunk theme. I'm looking forward to trying the multiplayer out at some point. This has a lot to offer and even if you don't get it at a discount I think it's still worth it. I like to try and get $1 an hour worth out of my games and I'm currently at 23.8 hrs and I'm in the last zone of the game so I think I'll hit 30 hours just from the single player alone.

OMG this game, is amazing! At first you don't quite grasp the potential of it, and as I thought, it looks just like a cyberpunk diablo or Baldurs gate! But it is sooo much more. As the game progresses you learn how to better use your characters in conjunction with each other, and it just gets better and better and better! And then you realise that the Massive city you run around in, is only one section of many! There is more!!! WTFrick?? And the powers and level ups just get better! And its not pay to play. its pay once play forever! Just like a game should be..... If you like Blade Runner, and rainy cyber cities full of evil corporations and their personal armies, and it's just you and your three mates against them all, (Well really just you cause you control them all lol) then you will abso-friggin-lutely love this game! Worth the purchase for sure.

When I first saw Satellite Reign announced, I thought my dreams of a worthy spiritual successor to Syndicate were finally coming true. I bought it soon after release and had high expectations. After 5 or so hours, I just wasn't quite enjoying it. It was okay, looked nice, but it just didn't click with me the way I had hoped. I put it aside and forgot about it amongst the rest of my backlog for a couple of years. I finally went back to it with more patience and ended up getting into it a bit more. It's not ground-breaking, but there is a decent Syndicate-esque cyberpunk strategy combat game here. Stick with it and you will be rewarded.

Being an original Kickstarter Backer I was a bit let down originally as Satellite Reign is quite different compared to it's spiritual predecessor. After a couple of hours of warming up to the game I started appreciating the simple yet tactical gameplay though.
While not being a particularly long game, there's quite a bit replay value and with each concurrent playthrough I found new things I had entirely missed out on before.
The main selling point is Satellite Reign is that it is realtime and has no turn based combat. There's no true time pause function either, meaning the game can be quite difficult and quite deadly at times.
Very solid squad based tactical gameplay, but don't expect this to win any prizes whatsoever in the story department.
Not a great game, but a good one and recommendable to fans of the genre.

It's a fun game, if you like some real-time strategic combat/hacking/infiltration stuff.
The fact that one needs a mod to actually unlock some of the achievements is a minor downside, IMO.

This is a tricky one. On the one hand I just love the cyberpunky setting, the game mechanics and everything. A great stealthy rpg with multiple approaches to every goal.
On the other hand it is pretty hard, because of all the skills and stuff you have and there is no way to pause the game to plan your next steps. Also gets repetetive very fast with no real story to hold your attention.
