What are your thoughts and feelings on turn-based startegy games?

Love them

I like them. Shadowrun comes to mind. Great games.
I dont like XCOM much, too cinematic so it takes too long to do things

I love sneks

Fun.

You know you can cut the cinematics to minimum, right?

>>385958989
You can turn the cinematic-style actions off in the options.

oh cool, I actually didn't know that. Thanks.

I like them as long as they're difficult enough for my decisions to matter

Long War 2 mod for XCom 2. You haven't seen difficult until you experience endless reinforcememts of 6-enemy pods where they all have 4+ armor and 30+ health.

It's on my backlog actually but thanks for the heads up

So artificial difficulty, got it

The game itself gets pretty difficult, don't get me wrong. But peopel have gotten downright sadistic with the difficulty using mods.

I'm sure they'd love you, too.

I saw Jadestar play it and yes, it gets difficult, but what you're saying stops being difficult and march in great strides into "fucking bullshit" territory

I know, that's why I said it was sadistic. Only play Long War 2 if you've beaten the unmodded game and want to kill yourself.

Literally my favorite series of all time. It's a shame the company that makes it completely focuses on Fire Emblem instead.

To be fair FE is usually good.
