JANNIES JANNIES THERE'S AN XCOM THREAD GET RID OF IT

Holy fuck I love the breach mechanic.

back to Yas Forums incel

5 years after the events of XCOM 2, where aliens wiped out 90% of humanity, the invaders were allowed to stay and aliens and humans are now living together, and anyone still harboring resentment towards aliens for the genocide is labelled a terrestrial supremacist.

>that jump
so cute

So how do the aliens work in the new Xcom?

>lets just condemn Germany forever due to their past actions

Oh and you play as a squad made up of aliens and humans unironically touting "diversity is our strength" as a motto.

ask me how I know you're a redditor

>the invaders were allowed to stay
Why wouldn't they be allowed if they were the victors?

They're genetically modified humans though.

What did Germany look like 5 years after WWII? retard

What I don't get about this "harmony between humans and aliens" is where all these civilian aliens came from.
I thought XCOM 2 established that every alien was bioengineered and bred for war, all of them enhanced using human genes that boosted psychic capabilities and controlled using chips. The only reason ADVENT troops were able to break free was because they were mostly human to begin with.

Not really, the whole thing is a bunch of XCOM rejects and nobodies that switched to law enforcement because they couldn't cut it. I'm pretty sure the boss and handler for the whole team is the dumb bitch that gets shot down in the tutorial of XCOM2.

So you don't get to make and name your own aliens?

>Phoenix Point actually makes them step up their game for XCOM 3
>this causes a delay for XCOM 3
>have B-team work on shitty expansion for XCOM 2 in hopes that people will forgive a delay
>see Bannerlord's success with taking advantage of the quarantine and Trumpbux
>really quickly shove a bunch of interns onto the project to finish up writing and voice work
>make the expansions "Stand Alone" to most effectively take advantage of the quarantine and Trumpbux
>charge $20 (but really $10 so it looks like a better deal!) to take advantage of quarantine and Trumpbux

Do I have it right?

It's a retcon, XCOM was never a franchise where lore mattered, it's all about gameplay. Hell XCOM2 literally retconned 95% of XCOM EW.

Wait for 3 if you want that.

Are the civilians all normal Ayy's or is there like, an Andromidon that works at an office 9-5?

They've been freed and are now retired from the military. It's pretty self-explanatory to me. That being said, it's weird the game doesn't bring up that all the aliens are veterans.

Advent had most of the world under control and going to gene labs at the start of Xcom 2, of course the survivors are going to be filthy xeno sympathizing ayy lovers

I have been waiting since Enemy Unknown but ok

>NOOOO THERE'S OTHER RACES THAN WHITE MEN? WTF WHY ARE LIBERALS RUINING EVERYTHING?

They are not pure aliens though. They are humans with alien DNA.

Yes

Nope, and it's pretty shitty since the OC donut steel they provide would unironically be more interesting as mooks like Pratal Mox and Dragunova was. At least so far(about 1/3 through the game) they don't really emphasize on it at all. The gameplay is pretty dope for 10$ and it's a nice XCOM lite, but if they try to pull this shit in XCOM 3 it's a hard pass for a full priced game. The way I see this is just as a standalone DLC.

I like the idea of aliens joining againts another enemy. If this is setting up terror from the deep, I am OK with it.

What

Way to ignore context and invent a strawman

So far I've seen
>chrysallids
>sectoids
>vipers
>mutons
>humans
>hybrids
I wonder what's happened to the other bio aliens too.

Troubleshooter could be redeemed if it wasn't online only for some fucking reason.

So can i still post SFW snake picks while you all ree?

XCOM 1 and 2 were extremely diverse with the soldiers and characters, but they didn't feel the need to beat you over the head with progressive garbage.

The girls are cute and that's all that matters, so yes.

The problem isn't the aliens IMO, it's just that they're all premade characters. If they would've just ported XCOM2 style mooks with different alien classes I'd be 100% down for it. Gameplay is dope so far tho, even if the maps feel a little small sometimes.

IM GAY

is anyone actually playing or all shitposting? IS the 1st boss fight supposed to be so hard on the 3rd difficulty

>weebshit

Is Phoenix Point any good? Last I heard it was a buggy mess, but that was at launch

They aren't doing that thing that Bright did where the non-humans are basically treated as 1 to 1 stand ins for non-white people/immigrants are they?

Also I'm kind of sad that this post-alien war story takes place in the continuity without MEC Troopers. I liked that they brought up worries about integrating them back into society in EW.

Are faggot mods going to delete this video game thread too?

It's not that there's races other than whites, it's that there's NO fucking whites at all (despite there being a bunch in the previous two games). This game is an example of the future the shitlib devs are pushing for: no whites, but tons of illegal aliens everywhere.

Maybe in your headcanon.

>oops all of EW was a coma hallucination and maybe your brain actually directing the ayys to conquer human kind, you lost and all your soldiers and friends from the first game were either not real or are dead

its kinda funny when you think about how dramatic it is

the Earth that X-com 2 Commander liberated was already ayyy positive so its not that much of a stretch for them to give them their own neighborhoods and welcome them

I dont know why they are user, there isnt even abnormally more shitposting in these threads than the usual level

Probably, since people are just using the game as an excuse to talk politics.

Na, game is way to easy. I started on 3rd and restarted to impossible with no healing between encounters after 2-3 missions. Even then the missions are piss easy. I remember my first run of XCOM2 or EW on hardest difficulty and that shit was brutal, I was losing soldiers left and right. This one I didn't even get a bleedout yet and I'm past the first terrorist faction.

You're full of shit, bud.

>decades after the events of United States Colonization, where anglos wiped out 90% of Native Americans, the invaders were allowed to stay and anglos and Natives are now living together, and anyone still harboring resentment towards anglos for the genocide is labelled a savage
Really joggins the noggin

I just don't get how one can go from being born in a test tube and being indoctrinated to serve the Elders since birth to saying "I guess we lost so I'll go be a bartender for scalies".

The only retcon from EW I've seen (from the loss ending) was where the spokesperson was mind controlled.

does anyone here actually have an opinion based on playing the GAME?
Is it fun?

it does but llike the last one it's buried in those voice blurbs no on listens to.

Ex. Mutons are protesting to be allowed access to the space port and the docked ship for religious purposes

Human Supremacist protests flip out and counter protest because you have a bunch of Mutons trying to get access to armed warships that have been sitting in mothball since the end of the war
