It's all basic stuff that you've experienced plenty of times before, but you still have to sit through it before you can get to the meat of the game, and not even Schwarzenegger showing you the ropes can make that interesting. The first hour or so of gameplay will be spent nodding your head and doing what you're told, building a quarry here, constructing an oil refinery there, upgrading this thing, demolishing that thing, and so on. It starts off rough, with a tutorial that just never ends. Mobile Strike will never be among them for one very simple reason: it's boring. It's practically what the strategy genre is all about, and it's spawned a lot of classics over the years. War-based strategy games are hardly anything new.
