War Mongrels
Huh so this game is kinda similar to Commandos? Also is the game controversial?
I think I might give it a try as it seems fun Commandos clone as I think Commandos did it first, this kind of gameplay and aesthetic.
Also most importantly is this game controversial just like Hatred and IS Defense?
Because for these games and controversial risk taking I respect Destructive Creations, because they stood out.
But Daymare 1998, Space Raiders in Space and Ancestors Legacy feel kind of like not their game and sorry to say, but it feels like they could have been made by any studio/game dev.
Since controversial felt unique. No hate, just thoughts.

It's a "dark Commandos".
Maybe too dark. No epic feelings.
Some places you visit in the game shouldn't be playgrounds.
But that's just my opinion.
It's a good game with challenge.

all stealth RTTs are commandos clones, Desperados, Shadow Tactics, Partisans. We might as well start calling these games commandoslike.

The game was great, story was great and the characters are memorable. The artstyle is good, map design was good, decent soundtrack, nothing bad i can think of.

It's quite controversial, but not for the obvious reasons, but rather because we consulted the game and its historical background with a lot of historians to get the most accurate—albeit dark and brutal, as wars are—portrayal of the Eastern Front of WWII. You'd think that would be a good thing, but then two things happened...

1. Before they had a chance to play it, the German media heavily criticized the game, since they expected War Mongrels to be a neo nazi propaganda piece. Of which it's very much the opposite. One day later the official German rating board gave it the 16+ rating with no issues...

2. A few weeks later, when the game released, we got review bombed by Russian players/Putin trolls, because we portrayed the history as it's universally accepted by historians globally. Unfortunately, the Russian schools teach an alternate version of history, in which the Soviets never conspired with Hitler, Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact never happened, and the Soviets were a peaceful nation that tried to "liberate" Poland in September 1939. A lot of these reviews have now been deleted by Steam, but you might find a few discussion threads here on the forum.

So yeah, it was a bit of a mad year, where we've felt like the world had gone crazy.
