For the most part it's just a little fluff on top of standard contracts, fluff that breaks the game immersion even harder than just standard and that is roughly worked out in the case that you win, but I'm talking about the lose condition here. So yeah, that's the level of interaction between the gameplay and writing you can expect. That has all of the loot they want in it, so these guys are blowing up what they are trying to capture because.

Oh yeah, that doesn't change the fact that their objective is seemlingly to destroy the lostech facility. If I was not clear, these liao guys swore vengance upon you and all that, but what does that actually matter for the gameplay? Oh no, a little rep loss, the horror! So when you lose the buildings you get a regular contract loss and get to walk away from the battle just like that, with no real consequence, you can even give it another try later. tldr they want you dead over it and you'll get a base defense mission.Ī regular base defense mission. Something I did not expand enough on was the fact that a lot of the writing is very contradictory to the mission objectives, I will give you an example from back when I played it, not sure if it's been changed since then.Īt one point you can choose to backstab (then again, backstabing liao is always the right choice) your contractors to claim a losstech mech for salvage. But there is not 20 bucks worth of value in there. I dunno, how much do you like the base game? If it was called something like a mission pack and was priced at something like 9.99, then sure. Having written a really long and salty review about it (when really tired mind you, so not the most well written one).
