You play as a multiethnic resistance group that performs guerrilla warfare against an overwhelmingly powerful oppressor. Feels like a leftist dogwhistle, even if realistically its normal #resistance

    XCOM 2 WOTC with the tactical legacy soundtrack is peak XCOM. In one moment the game is a stress inducing nightmare as you struggle to keep your failing campaign alive against increasingly overwhelming odds. In another, it's the most ridiculous power fantasy ever as XCOM rolls through, alpha strikes every pod, blows up half the settlement they were supposed to protect, and leaves a shitload of dead cops ADVENT in their wake.
