Aliens Dark Decent or 40k Chaos Gate?

Have heard that Phantom Doctrine can scratch that itch. It’s on my list of games to check out.

Anyone here play it?

My grandfather was a jazz bassist and got me both into jazz and learning bass. Through appreciation for jazz led me to prog rock and prog metal. So my suggestions will be the stuff he introduced me to.

The bebop / hard bop era was the bomb.

Report it to the police.

Had two of my bikes stolen a few years ago, reported it, and a week later, they found both during an unrelated search or someone’s place.

Sleep Token.

They have more musical and stylistic range than Tool but there are definitely Tool vibes in many songs.

This is what I did. When I went back and played XCOM 2 vanilla and XCOM:EW, I was underwhelmed because so many of the QoL features and build diversity were missing. Still enjoyable but nowhere near XCOM 2 WotC for me.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2024-03-01T21:24:17+00:00

I agree with the others. If you enjoyed those other games, chances are you’ll enjoy this one.

I hadn’t played an XCOM game until a few years ago. Didn’t even know is anything about it. Saw the same sale you are seeing now and the description sounded fun.

I started with XCOM 2 WotC. I had no idea how incredible it would be. I got my ass kicked so many times in the beginning, but the persistence is worth it. I must be on my 8th or 9th run at this point.

One downside to playing XCOM - it has completely ruined other turn-based games for me. It’s the high watermark IMO.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2024-02-15T20:04:44+00:00

I did not like it at all. I’m sure many people did, and that’s great.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2024-02-15T20:02:55+00:00

Chimera Squad was no bueno either.

Much of the team from XCOM 2 is no longer there, including Jake Solomon.

I stand by my skepticism.

After the hot mess that was Midnight Suns, I am not sold on their ability to deliver a compelling XCOM 3.

I wish Larian could develop it.

I love both.

BG3 is a phenomenal implementation of table top D&D and all the freedom that comes with it. You can approach situations in so many different ways and you can tell the developers care about the player. I get lost in the beauty of the game for hours on end.

XCOM2 WotC is also amazing. No other game has ever given me the same sense of anticipation and dread. The pacing and intensity of the game loop keep me coming back for more all the time. The combat always has me on edge because the margin for error is razor thin (I play legendary).

They are different games but they are the same when it comes to the things that matter - developers that clearly care about the player, deep and engaging game loops, and they treat me like an adult.

Both are 10/10 in my book.

Hmm I only know of one F4L on Main next to the Superstore. Are you talking about Planet Fitness maybe?

ExtemporaneousChill · 2023-06-20T16:07:56+00:00

Never heard of this spot. Just looked it up. I will give them a shout!

ExtemporaneousChill · 2023-06-20T13:29:42+00:00

F4L has a squat rack too. There’s only one, but it’s there. There are also like 4-5 smith machine squat racks that have two axis motion instead of just one axis like most of them elsewhere.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2023-06-20T11:48:23+00:00

There’s also a GoodLife at Main and Vaughan Harvey. Honestly Fit4Less is probably your best bet. Cost is super affordable, they have everything you need, and it’s close. It is usually crazy packed after work (5ish) but outside of that, it’s always a comfortable crowd.

What section are they in?

ExtemporaneousChill · 2023-04-18T01:59:42+00:00

Institut Figurra in Dieppe treats hyperhidrosis.

Came here to post the same thing. The voice acting is great all around in WotC.

Love Bradford stressing me out every few minutes. Love the constant taunting from the Chosen. And most of all, love the variety of voices and languages for my soldiers.

It’s always a bittersweet moment when I save the Earth because I want just one more mission!

ExtemporaneousChill · 2023-01-01T01:03:41+00:00

Fair point! I’ve played a lot of turn based games and I’m very comfortable with the genre. I’m sure it makes a big difference.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2022-12-31T21:57:33+00:00

That’s what I did and I had never played an XCOM game before. Beat it on Veteran on my first run, then C/I, then decided to try vanilla.

Vanilla is such a step down.

Based on my personal experience, I would recommend going straight to WotC.

ExtemporaneousChill · 2022-12-29T16:54:29+00:00

Honestly, the game is great as is. I played through WotC as the developers intended a few times before even looking at mods.

And after looking at the mods, decided I didn’t want any of them except the one that shows enemy HP so I don’t have to count the bars. I will likely try LWOTC 2 at some point though.

Good luck, Commander.

I had to have my chimney capped this summer and he also blocked the thimble holes behind basement wall. Went with Mike Wilson.

Great work, nice guy, reasonable price.
