I got every achievement in XCOM: Enemy Unknown!

Am I the only one who likes XCom: Enemy Unknown waaaaaaay better then its more popular (and honestly still very good sequel) XCOM2?

No, I like XCOM: Enemy Unknown better too. XCOM 2 is much definetly more streamlined (no more instant kill rockets on your side, less bullshit on the enemy side + concealment means you can plan your opening move), but I don't like the story and design direction as much especially after WOTC and CS. Plus it crashes a lot less.

Yeh, X-COM 2 kinda rushes you to finish the game, in X-COM 1 they just spam sectopods if you play too long.
Plus Genemods and Mech Troopers are bit more fun than Sparks and Faction Commando's because you can have a lot more than three.

There is that as well but I really did like the overall story and campaign in XCom just in general and wish people spammed egregious amounts of mods for it as well. The sequel had a stronger narrative but I felt it was a less interesting and ironically... lower quality plot. A united Earth fighting the aliens just worked for me on a far better level then plucky resistance fighting alien occupation after invalidating the accomplishments of the original. Just more relatable overall.

@bintananth back when corporate bastard could a grain of objectivity.
I was laughing because the people most worried about kids becoming addicted to video games today are in their 50s and were the kids who played video games in arcades in 1982.

These days you can have more games on a smartphone than an arcade had back then.
