Xcom trying too hard to be woke
It hasn't even came out and its discounted, I mean what even is that? Typical SJW propaganda, letting society being overrun by aliens and destroying our true diversity while knowing it creates a fragile unity prone to erupt in violence any second but not giving much of a ♥♥♥♥. You lick the boots of the global "elites"

XCOM: Snowflake Edition
50% Off cause...you wouldn't buy it otherwise lol.

Not touching this with a ten foot poll. I don't like diversity, because it is always forced nowadays. Plus, the gameplay looks watered down to suit more "sensitive" individuals.
Your squadmates don't even die lol.
The writing is horrendous just in the damn trailer, and I promise you one of the squadmates will be trans, another will be gay, etc etc. Because after an alien invasion/apocalypse, OF COURSE everyone will be open to working with aliens, and EVERYONE will be about identity politics...

As an XCOM fan, this whole release - gameplay and story trailer - made me want to vomit.

Sounds like they were working on XCOM 3 and the higher-ups told them to vomit what they got up on Steam as its own thing to stave off bankruptcy.

Do you have a single fact that back that up?

How about we focus our attention on the fact that TLOU part 2 literally has bald christian men who hate gay people as the antagonists.

Who cares about this ♥♥♥♥ right here in comparison.

Of course not. Just being edgy on internet.

Last of Us was never a good game, but Xcom was.

Is that the Shawn game or the game where the TWD guy carries stuff around?

I don't know about going bankrupt but this comes out of the blue and releases next month, heavily discounted to encourage pre-orders, they need cash flow obviously.

I agree, it is very woke. Painfully so. That's just the direction that entertainment has gone in the past two or so years. Feminazis taking over movies, and games going woke.

That said, I'm cautiously optimistic that it won't affect how the game plays. I've watched a couple of vids discussing the trailer so far, and am convinced that it will at least be entertaining for one playthrough. For $10, I can't complain.

I think XCOM 1 (of the Firaxis variety of course) was a better game than XCOM 2, but I have sunk vastly more time in 2 than I ever did in 1. I've completed both games on the hardest difficulty on Ironman mode without mods, and have completed them dozens of times with mods. While I still think the OG X-COM games are vastly superior, I really like the direction Firaxis has gone with them. Though I still miss air combat. This game will be a nice little distraction to tide us over until they announce XCOM 3 officially.

That feeling when not killing aliens on sight is woke.

You clearly never played XCOM 1 or 2... or the old ones from 20 years ago.
This game is clearly a spinoff of XCOM 2 and its a story progression game. My favorite was Xcom:Terror From the Deep and hopefully introducing the mega cities, this will move perfectly to Xcom3: terror from the deep.

GTFO with your anti-capitalism propaganda. And Claiming "woke diversity" in a SCIENCE FICTION GAME WITH ALIENS is the most cringiest take of all the takes. Almost as bad as crying about the lack of women in a Star Wars movie. Go back to Twitter/Tumblr and stay in the hole you came from troll.
