what the fuck happened.

Too many coomers making lewd art of the viper.

die mad, loser

yes but the snek in this game isn't a woman anymore.

baka

Retard, it was never about killing aliens. It was about stopping an invasion and then kicking out the regime.
You tried to do the former but failed, but succeeded in the latter.

Using your logic you shouldn't have allied yourself with Skirmishers either, nor resorted to using the Avatar.
Like some racist child you think this is about race.

What's the matter OP, you aren't some kind of Bigot are you? The future of earth is transhumanism goy!

Game looks good, but for $10? What's going on here.

>all those threads of XCOM wanting to fuck the sneks
>it actually happened

idiot, this means that snakefus arent only the best but also canonically accurate

XCOM is the best. Not even advent gave us canonical sneksfus but XCOM delivers.

NOOOOO THAT IS NOT VIGILO CONFIDO

Mini entry, likely to be ported to mobile, being used as marketing before terror from the deep 2 releases

the alien soldiers were just as much slaves to the Ethereals as the humans were

that is how they get you, with a deceitful game that borrows a famous title.

I don't think you can even customize these characters, you're stuck with them.

this looks like some linear shit.

the REAL problem is that they're showing a maskless Muton and it doesn't look like this

What the fuck is this game even supposed to be?
What is even the point of playing xcom if you can't customize your characters?
What is this lazy bullshit?

slow down there ...you're gonna owe me a towel

look at that smug fucking Sectoid

looks like he ate a human and knows he got away with it entirely

>5 years after the events of the second game
yeah lets ignore all those warcrimes.

just mind control, bro

I bought this game instantly cause I love xcom 1 and 2. Customizing your troops is boring to me, I like the combat.
If there were any actual good tactics games out there I probably would think twice but there aren't.
Phoenix point sucks dick.

what, you don't want to play as the best character in the game?

Yes but the devs saw the hundred of playable aliens mods made for xcom 2 because of those coomers and thought this was what their audience wanted.

I'm still mad about Phoenix Point

Tranny Dr Strangelove?
No.

Redpill me on phoenix point, what did it fuck up?

The fuck are those designs. Good thing I like the combat and that I already have $10 steambucks

this is probably what the mutons look like when the ethereals are not using them as guinea pigs for their experiments

for instance, both the floaters and the mutons in the original game are clearly the same alien race

Why?
Is it because every kickstarter game that uses Unity as an engine is bound to be a massive failure?
Or the backstab of only going to Epic games store and windows store?
Or the complete unfun gameplay?
Or because the game sucks dick?

>le epic exclusive

you know who that black guy reminds me of?

This, the other alterations are harmless but mutons have had their design ruined by this game.

hoping for a reversion with XCOM 3, If I get muton squaddies I want the full package, give me a berserker.

everything, really. Plus releasing literally unfinished with plans after endless delays, only to sell the missing content as DLC, complete with a Day 1 Season Pass promising the missing content.

that Muton looks like an actual cartoon character

>mfw is so retarded they didn't catch that the first wave of aliums was literally preparing humanity for a bigger threat.
You people are retards

Didn't mean to reply to you, it was for

I mean, by the end of your average ironman playthrough you've warcrimed harder in a few months than advent has managed since the occupation started.

plus the reapers used to eat Ayys all the time, Including the skirmishers I'm pretty sure.

the muton is based off pepe

the game sucks dicks.
phoenix point is fundamentally broken on a game play and mechanics level. the free aiming body parts shit often does not work or completely ignores 3 dimensional space. the game also runs like shit and is crash-prone.
the fact that that the game was made in unity and is an epic games exclusive are really the least of its problems.
in fact im pretty sure if they did not go epic exclusive and got that fortnite money they'd probably have sold much much less amids all the refunds that would have resulted from being served a barely functional game.

Weren't most of the aliens you fought enslaved though? I doubt they had much of a choice in the matter themselves. That's like saying Half Life is SJW propaganda because the vortigaunts are on your side after murdering the tyrant that enslaved them.
