For context I’m the kind of guy that once I finish a game I don’t really replay them, so I was wondering if there’s any reason to play one over the other.
Like is WOTC set after the base game, or is it just the regular game but more?
I’m sure there have been an unlimited number of posts just like this one on this sub over the years but I just had to share what just happened to me
The game doesn't seem to handle all the chosen being dead very well, this was just the most glaring instance
Like I never used them. Ever.
Last run, I took two to Col and holy shit man, they are ridiculous. At this point, I’d probably recommend someone use covert ops to get a Col grenadier asap in the early game. They completely trivialize the game.
Plasma Salvo into Rupture/Chain Shot/Sat Fire is so stupid man. I feel ridiculous by letting them sit on the sidelines for so long.
Side note, I feel like late game reapers and grenadiers work extremely well together.
That is all. Just an appreciation post.
Now it’s time to go touch some grass.
Just finished a vanilla campaign, hella good game, and was looking through the DLCs but some have really bad reviews, there is a combo too, but IDK if it's worth it, or is just better to pick up only the good ones.
What do you recommend?

Had been thinking I should introduce this at some point, and since it has now taken shape to a certain extent, I am presenting it to you.
Prevents the campaign from being forcibly terminated after completing the main storyline. Purpose of this mod is to provide a post-ending & Endless gameplay option for XCOM 2. And if you wish, you can also bring the game to a victorious conclusion at any time through additional Shadow Chamber research unlocked after the ending.

Hope you like it. 😄
P.S. Regarding lore elements mentioned in the UFOPaedia mod and associated research, great care was taken to avoid conflicting with or irreversibly locking in the original XCOM lore.
I've played for a bit on and off and decided to pick this up again with a bit of free time on my hands. Most recently I tried Commander Ironman (Vanilla, no mods) before settling on Veteran and winning today! It was a fun experience, so now I'm kind of contemplating what to do next. Long War 2? WOTC? Run it back but try Commander again with this new experience? Would love some input from the community on your journey and how you got hooked. I appreciate it!
Just a curious question. What are the best/recommended facilities to build? Btw it’s sucks training room is a stay after learn led all perks.
I got Xcom2 in this Steam Autumn sale, and I really like this game, I’m on my 4th run ever, I hope I finish this time!
I have some ideas about combat now, I can get through some hard missions flawlessly, but I have no idea what should I buy, upgrade, reasearch, build etc. Nevertheless, I am really enjoying myself!
I am considering buying the dlc’s, now I don’t understand why didn’t I just get them when I bought the base game, but the question is - can I try to finish this currently successful run in vanilla mode, and buy the dlc’s? Can I disable them for now?
