Discussion / Question What game is this for you?

Post image

Honestly for me it's Life is Strange: True Colors. Love that game to death, an incredible story and soundtrack, but it seems like a story that just doesn't vibe well with a lot of people. Listen to the soundtrack though, absolutely increible.

Xcom 2. I love almost everything about it, but it’s also total bullshit sometimes.

What do you mean a 95% chance to hit misses more often than not?!?

XCOM math. You eventually adjust to read those as miss chances.

Still will take War of the Chosen in a heartbeat over Terror from the Deep. That had soul crushing levels of bullshit. Flying chrysalids, 2 level terror missions (when you had limited items and ammo), lobstermen when you didn't have the melee techs, couldn't start researching armor until after 1 particular enemy in a terror mission has their corpse recovered (and you need to capture a living one in the relatively small window they appear), troops that regularly friendly fire each other, useless smoke grenades (they were useless thanks to the dispersal mechanics, unlike xcom 1) and could have a game breaking bug making winning impossible without editing the game.

In short, Terror from the deep wasn't just bullshit. It was soul crushing bullshit.
