I can't even say that the gameplay itself is the thing that I enjoy about Wingspan.

While I'm sure it helps that I'm a fan of engine builders in general, if I'm sitting down for Wingspan it's for the theming and chill vibes the table has when it's out over anything else.

At higher levels of difficulty with difficult mission modifiers, or in elite deep dives (the weekly, difficult, set of special missions) I've definitely felt stressed - but the good type of stressed?

It's never been a salt or rage inducing game for me - certainly if you've handled Overwatch at it's most frustrating you'll be absolutely fine.

I tend to mostly play with friends and in voice chat, but the game has a context sensitive ping and good visibility on where teammates are. It's definitely doable without. Just spam the V key and you'll be fine.

I'd compare it more to other horde shooters like left 4 dead, payday and killing floor in gameplay - but I think going from Overwatch to this wouldn't be too much of a system shock. Character classes excell in particular areas in a similar way to Overwatch.

The single player is very playable too - if you're looking to try it out before jumping in with people. You get a little robot friend to assist with the general teamwork things you'd normally get in a squad!

Heck, bundle in the ability to shapeshift other people for them and I'll run around zapping dysphoria inducing bodies.

Teleportation is up there, but I think shapeshifting beats it out for me by a little.

Not even considering how to use it to help other people, selfishly. I just want my clothes to always fit perfectly, among other things.
