I was pleasantly surprised by the new Jagged Alliance 3 release last week. It really flew under the radar, but I'm glad I snagged it because it's been really great so far.

I did run out of cash on the first island, so I treated that as a trial run. Every situation feels fresh, and the RPG elements seem more fleshed out than the new XCOM games.

I'm really liking how open-ended it seems; it reminds me a little bit of the original 2 Fallout games. I'm hoping for a PVP dlc or mod in the future, because (perhaps an unpopular opinion) Deadly Games was my favorite entry in the series; I played against my brothers all the time when I was a kid.

Thanks, that sounds like a good mix between story and gameplay.
