Xcom2 is a fantastic and polished game, definitely up there as one of the best turn-based strategy games of all time. One word of warning - they shut down Multiplayer for XCOM 2 not too long ago so don't buy if you only want to play the MP mode.
It's not enough to break the game but it's noticeable compared to properly optimized games. As such, it's recommended to turn of Ambient Occlusion, Vsync and Aliasing ingame and use other methods such as through your graphics driver panels (or third party software like nivdia inspector). The one thing to note is that Firaxis has made historically questionable tech implementations. Most things these days mods do is new tech - ranging from interesting additions or reworks to full fledged overhauls of the game itself. There are mods that fix a number of things, faulty implementations and such but it's likely nothing you will notice in your first playthrough. Both games are perfectly playable & enjoyable right out of the box. Are there any game-breaking elements or unfixed bugs I should be wary of as a new player? Which mods do you suggest I eventually try? Thanks. :) It seems like you have significant playtime invested in XCOM.

And they might just be on sale right now. So yeah, aside from some personal nitpicks well worth playing them. Lastly, the Tactical Legacy Pack adds some more mini campaigns, a few unlockable cosmetics and soundtracks to choose from during gameplay.īoth games have mod support although I'd say it's much better in XCOM 2. Reinforcement pack bundles a number of smaller DLC - Anarchy's Children, a mediocre cosmetic DLC, Shen's Last Gift & Alien Hunters, both of which add one new mission (if you so choose at the campaign start), new toys to play with and some new bosses. War of the Chosen is again a full fledged expansion, introducing new factions, bosses, hero classes and mechanics to the game, and it's a fully integrated addon again. You don't need any knowledge of XCOM 1 before playing but it makes a couple of changes to the original formular, in many ways forcing you to act and push ahead. XCOM 2 on the other hand feels more like a resistance movement trying to go up against alien oppressors. Gamewise you're the commander of a task force dedicated to stopping an alien invasion. It's fully integrated into the campaign so I'd recommend playing this one over Enemy Unknown.
Enemy Within is its addon that adds more enemies, mechanics and a new faction to fight in a new side story. XCOM Enemy Unknown is the original remake that started the reimagined franchise. They're still some of the best (and most difficult) turnbased strategy games out there so they're well worth it if you're a fan of the genre.
