It's not really a AAA title and it knows it. Fun, difficult, but narrow experience. Enjoying it so far, just completed the first map.

They probably charged less cause they know this game would be worth more if it had Hotseat mode. :donpug:

No lol.
The entire reason of hotseat is to not have another copy of the game.

Some online coop though..... maybe.

Ok, but why?

In this game you dont have a second squad to control...

I dont think there is alien vs marine multiplayer here...

Same with Warhammer.

You cant control 2 factions at the same time, because thats not hotseat. Thats coop.

And in warhammer you have allied recruitment. Use mod that removes allied recruitment limits and basically 22 factions in one...

Price is lower because the budget was lower. Its not about game length, its about budget. Its an AA game, not AAA

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous is also 39,99 base price and its easily 80 hours of content, and then about 30 hours per any additional playthrough if you skip most dialogue and zoom through places. I beat it 5 times and had like 200 hrs of playtime.

I like to play against myself, been doing so, primarily via board games, since I was about six years old. :donpug:

You can play one faction at a time.

But You want different factions.

So you basically dont want hotseat mode but you want to CHANGE faction that you are playing...

Yeah, this is not going to happen in this game for obvious reasons.

They just need to fix up the game mechanics a bit so you can switch control between squads, then it will work fine. :donpug:

are you serious.... so now were gonna complain about games being priced cheaper then full retail price, this is some weird logic.
