Mod Support?
Just found out about this one very recently.
Definitely on my Wishlist for the next sale or when Im tired of LongWar 2.

Was surprised to not see a Steam Workshop for this title. Have the devs communicated any future plans for this one?

Looks a very stylish game, and I've been around long enough to not let the negative reviews dissuade me from trying this one for sure.

Could anyone comment on the replyability here? Also, what about difficulty levels. Dose the challenge still feel fair while demanding tighter tactics on difficulties above "Normal"?

As far as I'm aware, there are no current plans to add official mod support to this game, but the devs briefly discussed it in this thread from about a year ago: https://steamcommunity.com/app/798490/discussions/0/2794998850876660568/

As for difficulty, the game only gives you Nightmare and Dream, with the former being the intended way to play it. The only difference between the two modes though is that in Dream, your Daughters heal up to 50% of their health at the end of each day, whereas in Nightmare, the only way to heal them is to sacrifice another Daughter of equal or greater health. Apart from that, it's only really difficult until you learn how the enemy acts and behaves, at which point it becomes easy enough as long as you pay attention.

When it comes to replay-ability, there is a rather small map pool, and 5 different mission types which all boil down to kill everything in varying amounts. With that being said though, your Daughters can get a wide variety of traits, which nearly always gives them a boost of some kind, which persist over multiple runs. If you want another perspective on the repetitiveness of this game, check out this thread:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/798490/discussions/0/3053986162861853989/

I hope that his helped you make a decision. Let me know if you have any more questions and I'll answer if I can.

Hi everyone,
For now, it is still not planned. As we want to update, we still need to think about the idea of adding a modding tool. We did not forget, don't worry :)
