Xcom 2 - Game Review.
9 years ago
Short and sweet, it's a copy of what I put on steam.
This should be a lesson for all game developers on how to release new games. Plenty of polish and very few bugs.
There was quite a bit of anticpation for this game, and it doesn't let you down. I've spent over twelve hours in game already and the only bugs I've seen so far are minor graphical animations. (IE Char hits windows with butt of gun but they don't break, but you still shoot through them just fine) The game itself runs smoothly and it's a true sequal. They pretty much only improved the game and it's better than Xcom-enemy unknown in every way. This is 100% worth paying full price for. The normal difficulty can prove to be quite an overwhelming challenge at first, but once you learn the tricks of survival you should have no problem keeping your squad alive well still faced with a good challenge.
The only downside I have so far is the game doesn't do a very good job of explaining the importance of some of the loot in game. Inte, Power cores, alien bodies, ect are used for upgrades or unlocking new zones. I've only figured this out via playing, and trail an error. Understanding how to upgrade your troops to get the classes you want was trial and error too. But it is possible to game the system to make sure you get what you like in your crew. Once you spend some time in game and fail once or twice or make a few mistakes, you will prolly restart a fresh campain like I did. With the experience I got from trail an error in the first try I've been able to really guide my team's advancement without any issue.
9/10 game rating and worth a buy if you enjoy turn based tactical games.
PS if you have any other questions feel free to drop a comment below! Tips, questions, Screenshots, and even willing to stream some gameplay upon request.
