IIRC, the recruitment system was just two radial quests (from the same pool as when they get captured, the dialogue didn't even change) to recruit someone?

I should play 2 again.

I wouldn't say it's over, in fact there's so many great indie games that are based on only a few very simple mechanics.

I also wanna say the recruitment mechanic in legion was great but the variety of recruits was not. It got boring really quick.

The loss of character identity was not great for this game.

It didn’t help that my game had a save-breaking issue that set me back 5 or 6 hours.
