Console version should still have the option to double the amount of turns, which is plenty of time unless you want to overwatch creep.

Hmm. Is it wrong of me to think that this is to make people get into Xcom again/talking about the franchise and then release info that they are working on Xcom 3? Fantastic game, and glad they are still working on it, but seems odd to still develop content for it since it's kind of an old game now. Somewhat of a pre-hype little addition?

Maybe. WotC isn't that old though. And if you're right, awesome. XCOM 3 would be good news.

If you ignore the fact that everything about it is bad, it was actually quite good.

Not that I know of. It was a bunch of really great ideas and a decently engaging story that were crippled by dull, uninspired gameplay. That's the worst thing about it, is that the gameplay wasn't even bad, it was just super bland and phoned in.

Doing legacy missions and just had one of the funniest pod reveals I've ever seen. Enemy pod is a gatekeeper+avatar. Avatar is in front and triggers reaction fire, gets poisoned from my psy-op's venom rounds, reactive teleports into the overwatch of my skirmisher and gets set on fire from incendiary rounds, reactive teleports into the remains of an andromedon and gets acid burns. Three status effects, half health, still hasn't had an actual action.

I've been messing around with this on PS4 lately just because I wanted something casual and familiar. If I remember right, I've done ~7 play throughs, 3 of which were ironman. Never used cheats before, but I did the Sid Meier cheat last night just before the first Advent facility mission.
Sid fucked up the first group of enemies, so I went ham after that and charged in with guns blazing, figuring I basically had god mode enabled. Nope, I got Xcom'd hard. I fucking love this game.

Hey pals,
I have never played an Xcom game
I got this game for free via ps+ So it sitting in my backlog. I just finished Valkyria Chronicles remastered and get the feel that the two games are similar in style and game play. Is this correct? Can anyone add some insight? Might be time to fire this up.

They are different almost entirely besides the main tenet of being turn based. You cannot go wrong with either though as they are both fantastic games.

10 percent of the monthly income. I bought a second hand upgrade for my PC (motherboard, processor and rams for 100 Euros) . I saved for one year in order to buy those. The game barely works, minimal settings, but it works. But sure, it is my fault that I am too poor and/or living in too much of a shit-hole to participate in the glorious enterprise of market capitalism and it is my fault that I don't just snap my fingers and remedy that.
