This game is the black hole in your mind that forms after a decade or so of woe, woeful existence where you feel every atom exist at the same time.

To play this drunk and tired at 2 in the morning with dealing with a little abyss of my own was not such a bad idea, never probably never finding out what the harpoon does sadly, spend around 30 minutes just going around the desert trying to see if there was some secret or ending to it.

Just the most impeccable atmosphere, it swallows you in and doesn't let go until you exit the game. I honestly believe there is beauty to something so hazy and dark, deranged brutalist arquitecture and a main character that looks like your first attempt at making a knight with play-doh, absolutely love it.

Final boss could do with not pushing you away every 2 seconds, really dragged out a scene that's otherwise great like the rest of the experience.

Almost perfect.

Probably my favorite turn-based combat system. So genuinely captivating to navigate, learn, and master that it by itself made history in the genre.

But what surrounds it is not so up there. Base management adapts to the main gameplay pretty well, but the sky combat is so nothing, a nuisance that I forgot was even there half the time and the other half it's just frustrating due to how much it depends on the money you spend on it out of pure guess work. Money that's more rewarding to spend on ground units and base upgrades.

The world panic system also feels like it punishes you for progressing more than lacking in focus or skill.

Despite that, Xcom is what I will always look up to in pure strategy terms. A classic.

Probably the best use of real time dialogue out there. It makes you consider each word and truly listen to what you're being told.

A problem is the sheer amount of back tracking and the fact said backtracking is weirdly paced, if you want to see a conversation in full you can't move too much so you end up walking in silence to the next part of the map.

The characters didn't quite click, this kind of white teen group that you see get plastered in a slasher film is a bit much sometimes, but there is genuine care put to them, something more to them that can drive you to engage in the dialogue, just wish it worked more often than not for me.

The ending is great, I myself am coming from a tragedy a couple years ago, it still itches, but at least games like this let you scratch it.
