Same, it honestly looked a bit low effort. But can't fault them on their sense of humor!

Funnily enough 2 of my friends independently from each other went back to XCOM(2) recently because they felt an urge to play it. Makes me think I should do the same.

Holy cow, was that official? I figured it was some fan goofiness until the end.

Lol, you're sounding terrible man.

Anyway, I'll pick up Xcom 2, don't worry. I'll probably wait until a sale, though, or at least until all the DLC have dropped.

Glad you liked it. For me the most interesting game i've played is the steam game card collecting game. Everything else has left me feeling empty and drained. MoW Assault squad somewhat an exception but the other games, no fun.

EDIT: I'm becoming Jade warrior apprentice? .

Thanks. If you see it for cheap, I would absolutely recommend you to pick it up. Easily one of the best games I've played in years.

Well, finished the veteran ironman game, and was having such an easy time towards the endgame that I was like....should have played commander.

Or maybe I'm just becoming half decent at this game. Still, even though I could definitely stand for another run (crazy I know, already sank 70 hours in it since release) I'm gonna hold off and focus on other stuff. Should make playing with mods or the expansion a lot more fun in the future.

You're right Peltz, that's the reason why I never play games on 'nightmare' settings or something like that. Autistically searching for that blind spot is not my idea of fun.

In this case however, XCOM2's 'commander' difficulty is supposed to be the equivalent of 'classic' (ie tough but fair) in XCOM1. And it's tough, but not fair. So I stopped trying that. Now playing on 'veteran' ironman. Already lost a few people, mostly due to my own stupidity, but otherwise going pretty well. Still alive!

The thing with most games at their highest difficulty level is that they force you into a specific way of progression. Any deviation from that path leads to failure. Like Men of War 2 for instance. You are pretty much screwed if you cant find that blind spot in the AI code. For instance on the US second mission my teams totalling of 20 men got wiped out by a single machine gunner because while he had no issues with shooting my men, my men did not fire back, just watched like a bunch of dumbasses.

So do some reading, there is a flaw in the ai you have yet to discover.
