In the Turn-based mode, every character has a certain number of Action Points, depending on their stats, that can be used for moving, attacking or any other time-consuming action.
While not in combat you can speak to people and gather information relevant to your mission, the characters, and the world. You can trade weapons or buy equipment in the black market, steal, play mini-games, prepare for next mission or accept some little side quests.
All characters in the game have their own Inventory. This includes also all NPCs, so if you defeat an Enemy NPC, you can loot all the weapons, magazines, and equipment. The type of armor your character is wearing determines how many slots for equipment he has and how much he can carry.
Managing inventory can save you some time in combat
There are different types of obstacles, puzzles, and traps you will encounter. There will be also multiple ways to solve the problems. For example, electronic traps can be hacked and disabled, or you could use EMP grenade to destroy them if you have one.. Or just find a hidden way around. Failure however may result in quick death or serious troubles.

You can freely improve any ability, but you should maintain some sort of specialization for your characters, that will provide you versatility, give you an edge in combat and offer solutions in various situations.
Skills and descriptions
The dialogue system in the game allows us to create complex and rich dialogues. Some dialog options are available only under certain circumstances. High intelligence, perception, charisma or even luck can unlock new dialog options...
For every mission you can take a different approach. if you opt to avoid getting involved in a face off, you can sneak through and eliminate your enemies silently, which can prove very beneficial for rescuing hostages or eliminating high-value targets before they escape.
