If you were a backer*...

Don't forget to check your email for your expansion pass key. Completely flaked and was about to buy it, when something said to check email. Glad I did. They sent the keys back in May.

Title sounded as though you offer to play a game of imagination. It doesn't help that title gets cut on word original(steam mobile). So I thought original... character?

So if I were an original backer... my name would be somewhere in the game I guess. But I wasn't, but I wonder why would they let some names appear twice in the game? As a common name for 2 different characters? They should have normalized it, I think. But maybe they did?

And if I were an original character, I hope I'm not part of New Jericho. I'd prefer being one, who screams

For the Phoenix Project, for the all of us!

sort of things.

Let's think about head augmentations. Why didn't they make some real monster/robot responses instead of gibberish they got? The ones in XCOM:EU and XCOM 2 were so cool and aesthetic. Personally, if they ever do them, it would me one of the most welcome changes possible!

Oh, dear Brother Nicholas, whatever will we do with you? I don't know where to begin, there is so much going on here...

It is random, and many people have the same name.

Pretty sure it is random...

You mean in terms of model options for soldiers? They are fairly decent, and you have to remember mod community contributed a lot to FiraxCOM that produced that model variety. The default ones were stale for the longest, even in 2. To each their own. Not entirely sure what this has to do with OP, but we will allow it.

Nicholas, I also fixed the post title to be less confusing.

I meant responses. With mutated heads soldiers don't say actual words anymore. And I believe it's the same with robotic heads. In XCOM:EW a soldier undegone a surgery, would change their voice to more artificial tones. I'm talking about MEC operators, but there also were Sparks in XCOM 2. They sounded somewhat similiar.

That is actually a great idea and they have a Canny board for suggestions. It looks bare now because nearly all the feedback has been rolled into the game, but there is no telling what lies beyond DLC 5... Feedback like this is helpful if they eventually do a sequel. Not sure if it is possible with PP, but you never know. I say you should add your feedback to the canny board. I would upvote it... having voices altered or change as the soldier mutates or becomes enhanced is a cool idea. Little touches like that help personalize and endears them more.

I really like it how the voices and the lines change when soldiers are on low hp. Adding mechanical audio filters to those with a head aug would be cool too, for sure!

[Nicholas]

I did that. Inspired, I decided there really must be more talking about that. Here[phoenixpoint.canny.io], it's ready to being discussed.
