Maybe the best thing (relatively) to happen, is Israel pushing ground forces into Syria to secure a buffer zone in the Golan Heights to keep Islamists from shelling populations in Israel again. The IAF has been systematically eliminating the prior Syrian military tech on the ground as well, so that they won't fall into the hands of various civil war factions. Including bio-chem facilities that Syria had been using against their own populations.

To be clear, I haven't heard that Israeli ground forces are in Damascus (although I noticed at least one clickbaity/scam titled video earlier this morning along that line). I kind of doubt that will happen, or not anytime soon. (Strictly speaking Damascus, like Tyre and Sidon, lies within the Biblical sphere of prophetic Israeli rule, which could have some bearing on future events, as it has had some bearing on past events, in various ways.)

Anyway. The other big winner so far in the Syrian civil war is undoubtedly Turkey, who will also benefit from taking over supply for problematic forces in Lebanon, thanks to Iran's logistics to the area being largely snapped. Unclear how their NATO status will affect their moves in the region yet. I know historically there are many groups who would rather see the whole area glassed than Turkish control re-established. But some key buffer zones between Turkey and Israel are becoming a lot more fluffy (so to speak). I would not in the least be surprised if an official war between Israel and Turkey kicks off in the next 5 to 10 years, though I'd like to be wrong about that.

Steam reviews say it is on rails. I was hoping for something open world-like. X-com with zombies would have been nice.

I have played some very good linear progression games...but they generally aren't my thing.

So will lurk for a while on this one.
