  "account": "I was never anticipating Rainbow Six Tactics to be one of my favorite Gamescom demos. In fact, I'm not really a Rainbow Six fan. The series' hardcore squad-based first-person gameplay never quite clicked with me since I first played it as a five-year-old. So, I was taken aback when my brief demo with Rainbow Six Tactics so captivated me, quickly becoming one of the most anticipated games at the show, and precisely because it blends familiar XCOM-style tactics gameplay with Siege elements.",
