What players say
Players praise Tempest Rising as a true spiritual successor to Command & Conquer, with a nostalgic soundtrack and satisfying base-building. However, the community is sharply divided: many are furious that the third faction was pulled from the base game and is now sold as paid DLC, calling it a bait-and-switch. A minority report clunky controls and unbalanced missions on normal difficulty.
