The Wraithqueen has single-handedly made me into a xenophobe.

Sorry, had to expel that. Now then: my thoughts on the game in general.
(note: i have only played on rookie mode as of writing this review)

General: I get why people talked about the XCOM series being so cool now. I agree fully; this game is awesome! Bought the XCOM 2 Collection (i think) for 10 bucks after trying it out for free on the Epic Games Store, and I do not regret my purchase.
...the Wraithqueen is slowly making me turn insane, however.

The Combat: Oh, boy, another game whose combat is ruled by RNG!
Joking, of course, half-heartedly. Aside from the combat being pretty much ruled by chance, I quite enjoy havin my dudes shoot the bad guys! The explosions are awesome as well. I also get why people are horny for the Vipers. Anywho.

The Avenger (and the map): ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, this ship's layout reminds me of Fallout: Shelter.
I do not like Fallout: Shelter. I do like the Avenger, though! It's very detailed, and the specific rooms givin' me bonus stuff is nice. The map is also nice, good ol' Generic Future Map of the World, you know how it is. The constant interruptions of my scanning attempts are starting to get on my nerves, but... meh. War.

The ADVENT: Unique enemies. I cannot wait to have them all fall to the Resistance. I also can't wait to punch that propaganda guy in the face. ♥♥♥♥♥♥' hate him.

The Mod Support: GOOD LORD, THE MOD SUPPORT. SOLID 10/10.

...and i've ran out of things to talk about. oh actually one more thing

The Wraithqueen: I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate her. This one time, I was trying to keep my guys alive in an underground area while fending off 4 ADVENT MECs, right? They were trying to destroy an important computer relay thing. This ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ popped up out of the blue, ran in, swiped at one of my guys, ran out. Absolutely pansy-ass behaviour. I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate her. So ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ much. I can't wait to tear her apart.

The other 2 Chosen: I feel like I'm going to feel QUITE the same way with them as I do the Wraithqueen.

Overall: 9.9/10. Deducting a tenth of a point because I'm bad at the game.
