Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You're ready for a long-haul commitment (25.5h main story alone) and won't burn out halfway through.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (33.5h with extras, 54.9h to 100%).
- ✓ You like optimizing a build, economy, or army over reacting on instinct.
- ✓ You like planning several moves ahead over reacting in real time.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want to relax with something you can half-pay-attention to. Strategy punishes autopilot.
- ✗ You want fast, reflex-based action. Turn-based strategy runs on patience, not quick reflexes.
