Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists?
Mandarbmax@lemmy.world 1 week agoOG XCOM has a really rough learning curve for sure. It is easy to understand the fundamentals of but it takes a lot longer to get it well enough to really enjoy. Once you do learn it I feel like it is different enough from new XCOM that you can enjoy both. I love new and old xcoms a ton.

Old XCOM also likes to bend you over and fuck you over a lot. And that’s the way we liked it!

Ah yes. Land Skyranger, open door, sectoid throws grenade into Skyranger. Evac with one survivor. Good times.

I will say that new XCOM can be good at that too. It really is the most important part and I’m glad they didn’t leave it out of the remake!
