This picture sums up Xcom2 pretty well imo...

I'm having fun with it, but some of the timed mission and blacksite missions are extremely unforgiving.

Yeah, was (and still am) keen, but the asking price is currently too high for me. Waiting for the sales - doesn't matter if it takes a year or more.

Still the same quirks as the first game - 95% accuracy on a 3-tile away shot and still miss. Always more annoying when you need the clutch on your last move

Honestly it's worth the price tag, 74 hours in and still going up, but you need a pretty beef rig to run it. I've made about 3 runs now, 2 on normal which were successes, and my current Legendary run where I'm finding out timers really are giant bitches. Not the mission ones, but the Avatar project.

Break only rules created by men, uphold only what is true and everlasting

I'm going to try and start next week (still running through Digmon). I love how you're undetectable at the beginning of maps, allowing you to quickly get into battle rather than having to take your time. It also fits the theme that you're now the hunter and the aliens have become the hunted.

Vic Boss using Big Boss as a weapon? :v

All 3 of my runs Venom ended up as an engineer. Such lulz.

hmm... rig is fine, the 3.5GB of VRAM will handle it. No bottlenecks on the CPU and RAM side in any case.

Just that after conversion, it's close to $100 AUD. Not a small pill to swallow for me these days

Got it, life managed to prevent me from sitting down and starting the campaign, though I'm having fun with the character pool option so far...

I think I'll make something like 20-25 characters and set the game on using them only for when I'll finally start the campaign...

Bradford became badass.
He had always been...

Actually my issue was due to the fact that for all this time I thought of him as a black guy, not sure why but always thought of him as looking as younger Obama, so ended up wondering if he got the Jackson's treatment...

Also Dr Tygon is a mixture of badass and crazy...

...especially after you hear his comments about his scar or the ADVENT Burgers...
