Only for the nostalgic
As a fan of the original X-Com's and the sequels I decided to give this a shot - tinkered with all the controls and completed one mission. The game feels like a downgrade from the original X-Com. The UI is less intuitive and ugly. Movement is clunky. The levels are very vertical but the game doesn't make a good job of switching between the different height levels. The path finding is a mess, especially when trying to move units as a whole squad. I don't like the 50's future sci-fi style with the rocket cars, but that is a matter of personal taste. The problem is that the graphics in general look like this game was released before X-Com. Animations, the aliens, everything looks worse than in the original, movement and shooting mechanics are janky and not as snappy as the original... while it does have some neat features such as being able to move people and cars around in the city, it doesn't make up for the other gameplay being less fluid and less attractive looking than the originals. I see how you can have fun playing this game, but you probably must have played it back in the day to appreciate it. I get too frustrated by the jankyness and find myself constantly thinking I'd prefer to play one of the originals or sequels instead.
Hilft dir das weiter?
