    Midnight Sons looked really good until I found out it was a turn based card game. :(

    If it had been a real-time game like Diablo it could have been huge.

      That’s literally the most interesting aspect of it. And it was something different to yet another arpg using characters that don’t fit constant gear changes. If you wanted that you should’ve played avengers.

        I thought it would be like XCOM but the card game mechanics turned me off after a few missions. A little bit of randomness keeps things interesting but I don’t want to feel like I’m playing cards I want to feel like I’m directing a mission.

          Oh I agree that it can be frustrating, but I’m just glad they did something other than yet another shallow action game.

          That’s why I held off for 60% sale. I think, given my personal preferences, there is a wee little best of both worlds realm if they get it juuust right. I’m not confident in anyone to hit that sweet spot, but I am very excited to build a team of my favorite heroes to manage in turn based tactic gameplay. So I figured I’d give it a shot, but not for 30+ bucks. I actually bought it a few months ago and just installed it last night, but too late to actually start it up.

      Say it was a turn based card game is a bit misleading, cards definitely factor into it but it’s not like it was Marvel Yu-Gi-Oh or anything. It’s actually a really good game though I recommend playing with the tiger mod. Assignment failed because the second season of DLC would have been awesome
