XCOM 2 is mathematical, emotional, and thoughtful all at once. It's exhilarating, even in the face of failure. Victory is the goal, but that's just an afterthought here. it's the complex journey that counts.

• Nuanced strategy and tactical layers
• Plethora of command decisions makes each playthrough different
• Individual soldiers foster personal connections
• Failure is essential and meaningful

• Enemies sometimes ignore tactical rules
• Some performance issues during cinematic moments
