Welcome, Commander.
Also, please note: The aliens continue to make progress on the Avatar Project. If we're going to slow them down, we need to move fast.
Make me like this game. I bought it on sale (xcom2) and I played it for like 30 mins and dipped. I'm sure it's my kind of game. But maybe I missed something by not giving it enough time.
How should I tackle this game to enjoy it?
Start by regularly assuming that a 95% chance has a near 0% likelihood.
Then, allow yourself to become reliant on soldiers that you spend a huge amount of time training and equipping, and then accept them being insta'd during some random mission which softlocks you from progressing in the game because now all you have are recruits with garbage gear who get eaten alive in seconds.
Lastly, discover a desire to punch Sid Meier in the face.
That was my experience with XCOM, at least.
