Never liked the original Commandos 3. Thought the textures looked blurry and it was an overall downgrade from 2. Didn't like the new interface also, felt lacking tremendously in comparison to 2. I know they tried simplifying things but in the end, it felt too limited.

I got the chance to play the remastered version at the Gamescom 2022 and the textures still are blurry and the interface/controls are still awful. Don't wait.

I just caught the trailer since I was at work when I initially commented. Holy crap who approved that? That was pretty damn awful. They also called it a tactical masterpiece? Who the hell gave them that thought? It was horrible in comparison to 2 or even the older classics from the late 90s. Yeah, this one is definitely a pass, especially when the quality real time tactic games out.

In no particular order, Shadow Tactics BotS, Shadow Tactics Aiko's Choice, Desperados 3 (awesome game), Commandos 2 (still holds up, just stay away from the remaster). If you want to go more old school but still quality, Desperados 1, Commandos Behind Enemy Lines and Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty. I think Desperados 2 was a hybrid type game and not original to the gameplay of the first or 3rd. Lastly, there was a Robin Hood based game that came out. I never gave it much effort so I'm not sure how well it holds up.

I'll wait to hear about the reviews because the Commandos 2 remaster was butchered from what I heard so I never picked it up. Despite Commandos 2 being my favorite real time tactics game of all time.
