Could Have Been Better...

Most aspects of this game hit the mark.
I think the graphics came out exactly as intended, comic book/anime style with bright colors and detailed designs.
The music is grade A and the story was very intriguing (could have done without the winged pig though).
The story progression however was annoying having to click through each episode in a chapter when they could have just as easily continued on to the next episode.
I understand this is part RTS, part turn-based strategy and part RPG, but the level progression was really kind of lame. Each class gains levels which increases HP, DEF, etc. but there is nothing else really noticeable between higher level classes and lower level since the enemies level up at pretty much the same rate. The troopers and scouts get an extra ability each at a certain level but I would've liked to see more.
I'm more of an RPG fan so I like to see my characters develop newer, better abilities as they level. And I really got bored with the fact that the best way to beat most of the missions was to run up to the enemy as fast and as close as you can so you can shoot them in the head and move on.
Overall, I thought this was a great game and would recommend it to anyone who likes turn-based strategy mixed with a little RTS but if you're looking for RPG, this games only mildly satisfies.
