Message: [QUOTE="Doomstruck, post: 50567, member: 104508"] Not exactly the same as the question, but I used to be convinced I hated turn-based strategy games until I played this one on steam called Enemy. Its rough 3D pixel art look drew me in, reminded me of older indie games, and it ended up turning me around on strategy games. It's kinda like xcom in how its combat works, you've got units with each having a time stat that goes down with each action, and leftover time can be used to interrupt enemy actions, but the game's whole deal is it's in a world where each biome is based on a different game genre, so the design gets really abstract and gamey, like how one of your stats you can boost is "throw" which lets you grab literally any object, people included, and throw it mario 2 style, which you can use to smash holes in buildings and potentially collapse the roof of some, causing the rubble physics to deal huge damage to enemies inside. You can even pull off some immersive-sim adjacent shenanigans like this time I wanted to snipe through a hole in a wall, but it was too high, so I put a rock down next to it, then picked up my ranger, stepped onto the rock, then crouched so my ranger I was holding was perfectly lined up. I've tried more strategy games since then, but that one was my gateway drug [/QUOTE]
