If you liked the previous XCOM games there shouldn't be any reason you won't like this one!

If you like turn based tactical strategy games (an oddly specific description mind you..) then you'll probably love this. However XCOM sure is mean with its rng. Prepare to accept deaths, unavaoidable situations, and constantly restart missions in the hopes it'll go better. I enjoyed it but I'd be lying if I said sometimes the game doesn't upset me because I missed a 98% chance to hit (which has happened more times than you might think.)

I like the Soldier customization much more than Enemy Within, New and unique alien types, and different ways of managing your time. Also there's a ton of mods for the game that will improve the bad or necessary things about it. (Mostly Better Camera mods and All Overwatch.) Rush Psionics research, it's incredibly broken if you do it early.

Pick it up on sale, I wouldn't buy it any other time. Same goes for the DLC. It's good but in my opinion should be lower priced.
