Addicted, played UFO years ago, didn't hear of Xcom until ten years back, can't stop!

top 5 strategy games, not for the faint of heart

This might be a best game that I have played after 2000, especially with War of the Chosen add on. First time when I played, I tried Commande Ironman, but that was too hard (really I gave up too easilly, 'cause I was a wimp) and I made my fist playtrough eventuaylly Veteran difficulty level. Then I played three times with Commander Ironman, until it came too easy. First playtrought with Legendary Ironman was awesome and it was very satisfyingly hard. After 5 playtrough with Legendary Ironman, I would say that game difficulty is right spot on, challenging but no too hard. You miss a lot if you don't play with Ironman and minium Commander difficulty. It's not too hard game, you're just good enough.

This game is a true gem amongs all the TBS out there. I will be talking, wihtout taking the consideration and changes from the first game, because the previous part is very different, compared to this one. First of all, the difficult level is increased, especially if you play your 1st walktrough with War of the Chosen. They make the game much, much harder, because they can pop-up any time to one of your missions and they can be quite hard to beat. This is why you find yourself first of all to deal with them and then focus on the other objectives. Once in their lair, they are not hard to kill, especially with skilled operators. You should really focus on that to keep your soldiers alive every time. It will be much more costly if you loose a soldier. Better give them a well deserved rest and be careful wich soldiers class you bond. Bond soldiers get good bonuses and they are very handy, especially against The Chosen. Because the difficulty, I have found myself, especially the first 20-25 hours constantly loading almost every turn. The game makes your life really hard, especially if you customized your characters and you want to keep them alive. Yes, the customization of the characters are great and there a lot of varieties. The special operatives from Factions are great units, altho it would be great to be easier to recruit them. Two reapers in one mission are a deadly duo and make your life much easier, especially if you need to fast infiltrate enemy point of interest, destroy it and come back. I strongly recommend to play this game if you are fan of TBS. My only playthrough hooked me for about 50-55 hours. It was an amazing experience.

gog版本可以正常打mod，只要修改XCOM 2\XCom2-WarOfTheChosen\XComGame\Config下的DefaultModOptions.ini文件，在[Engine.XComModOptions]下面添加一行ActiveMods="mod的名字"就行了。唯一不够完美的是还需要上steam访问创意工坊比较麻烦，但光凭gog上没有该死的drm就值得支持，这年头万恶的drm游戏越来越多，正版玩家都成了受害者
