Not really; this is a good theme for the Mechanicus but doesn't really fit other races or say, Space Marines. There are other OSTs that do a better job fitting those.

Even Grey Knights and Sister's of Battle, Iron Hands, and some Imperial Guard Regiments like the Maccabian Jannissaries as well.

The soundtrack is such a big part of making the atmosphere of this game so excellent. Hoping for a sequel with more variations in enemies at some point!

[@boenstheskully267]

Same

[@oriusnex]

@Abderamus I know personally the struggles of being in a small games company with limited resources. The main thing I wanted when I played it was to have more variations of stuff to fight, so yeah.

[@ayebraine]

@Abderamus As an XCOM/Long War fanatic, I would respectfully disagree with you ) XCOM 2012 had a perfect amount of complexity and mechanical variety, which was the reason Long War was able to carefully increase it sideways in all directions, basically without changing the depth, but getting like 5x gameplay out of it. XCOM2 had to be more complex and have more features, and they did admirably, but both the expansion and Long War 2 were bogged down in too many mechanics and a shaky foundation - when they tried to expand the already expanded new-XCOM formula. Mechanicus is a great little game, and it's GREAT at working with the devscope/budget it's got (my main reason to like it), but it's not as tight mechanically as XCOM2012 managed to be. In some places, it has too little (like maps and engagement variety), in other places it just adds stuff until adepts steamroll with a snowball of abilities. Its character class system is VERY bold and nifty, but doesn't really function. Its "do all you can do in a turn" concept is frankly intoxicatingly fresh, but it needs a super hard balance pass and a wider world to really blossom. So if we only took Mechanicus as it is, taking care not to break it completely, yeah - more enemy types and larger battlespaces (plus a big, very difficult balance pass) would actually let the existing mechanics blossom, probably. Imagine your high-level adepts on a map 3x the size, having to deal with long-ranged enemies and non-dumb cloaked enemies, and AoE units, and, say, more widespread enemy overwatch. Notice that in the main game, your own vehicle units almost don't have any space to become useful.

When I played it, I noticed it very prominently.
