Gurlok: I'm totally UNinterested in the multiplayer features, both because I'm a single player guy, and second because I don't like the MP policy of this game (server login, no lan and so on), so I'd like to know how much fun is the single player mode and how much replayability it offers.
Thanks to anyone willing to answer my question! :)
If you have a Steam account, there is a free demo that has all of the tutorials/challenges & the first of five purely offline singleplayer campaigns. The singleplayer campaigns (IMO) improve as you go along, but the first one is representative.
With respect to replayability, if you're playing purely offline, it depends what you want. I don't think the "realms" have much replayability: once you've got "gold rank" in all five, I doubt you'd feel like replaying them. I'd strongly recommend you try the demo. << Ah, I just realised the game is on sale, UK£2.39 - Even for just the five offline realms and tutorials, that's a bargain.
If you like duels vs various arrangements of bots, you have a ton of combat replayability: the random aspect of the game make for a lot of variation from battle to battle. I've played the game *a lot* and 1v1 bots don't present a challenge, but I enjoy 2v1 and other setups.
If like the realms sufficiently to go online and connect to Snapshot's servers, there are a good number 20-40 I think (and more coming) of online, player-created "realms". These can be played single-player, co-op, or PvP (you choose).
