STAR WARS Zero Company™

(Some context to how much ive played the game) I have beaten the game on hard, and i am playing through on max difficulty ironman mode. Its Xcom 2 but star wars and made easier/simplified. Which is NOT entirely a bad thing. If you have played Baldurs gate 3 and divinity original sin 2 its the same effect. Same core gameplay across both games, one (Star wars) is just simpler and easier than the other (Xcom 2). On release it was kinda rough with bugs, dont get me wrong there's still the occaisonal issue and medium amount of bugs. But with the latest patch the game-breaking/run ending stuff is fixed. Bugs ive still seen in current patch that i can remember: UI issues Floating enemies occasionally Overwatch while better is still occasionally buggy Operations taking your intel and running away with it WHERED MY PANTS GO??? (Clone armor pants de-rendering/re-rendering) ETC None of them are more than an annoyance unless your playing iron man mode, and even then its not a huge deal. The game is wayyy easier than Xcom 2, if your coming from Xcom its going to be pretty easy outside of expert. The AI isnt that smart and is abusable, characters only get multi-mission long debuffs if you go "down" and gain an "injury" by going to 0HP. All said injury does is reduce accuracy by 15% (stacking). If you get 3 injuries on a character they fully die. Even at that there's tons of ways to get a character up from the "downed" state at full health, and sometimes using a specific utility item without a injury. The game does not punish you in any way for going down to 1hp and tanking damage over and over. You can absoloutely build a character to sit in the open, tank shots, and be healed after. Also the medbay can fully heal all injuries in one "cycle" (mission). So you can have a character go down to 2 injuries, spend 1 mission in the medbay, and be back in action. Plus respeccing is completely free, the only permanent character "trait" are "bonds". Which are permanent stat buffs to two different characters when they well...... bond (heal eachother n stuff) Note: They dont have to be both in the mission after receiving the permanent buff to use it. My point in this being, partially to just give an idea of the differences to Xcom, and also to say: It IS an easy game. I still enjoy the game (clearly, ive played it roughly 8 hours a day since i got it, while also working lmao). But if you want a Xcom 3, put it on hard or expert, and consider some mods like (2 injuries to die) and stomp the ♥♥♥♥ out of the game. TLDR: Game good, simpler Xcom, not as replayable as Xcom, but also less 99% chance to hit with my barrel LITTERALY in his face Xcom 2 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
