Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Well it is for children so guess it can't be too hard. I wonder if they'll ever add in hard modes and stuff for their more adult fans? A huge portion of the fanbase aren't children, heck I'd say most genuine fans aren't really.


Played a bit more X-COM 2, I'm at the point now where the game just kinda frustrates me. It clearly cheats.
Had all my soldiers hidden ready to do this mission, my Major Sharpshooter up high ready to bingo.
There was a patrol of a Heavy MC and two Elite troopers going around the ground, quite consistently just walking around.
And then right before I make my move they just randomly decide to jump up the building, right next to my sniper and spot her. Complete bulls***.

So I reload my save, I move her away somewhere else and put a Ranger further up but still hidden.
That time while doing their rounds the patrol "randomly" goes off in a direction it never has before...right at my Ranger.

It wouldn't be so annoying if the game wasn't plenty hard already <_< the odds are already stacked against me in this mission, got to get data from a train within 8 turns but right next to that are a Gatekeeper, two Archon's, an Andromedon, a Sectoid and a Shieldbearer. As in there's literally no way to get past without activating all those at once, plus all the other units on the map that haven't activated yet.

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

Yeah but they are still designed for children, anyone can enjoy them but they're not made to be super difficult or anything.

I've honestly never thought of Mario necessarily for children. I mean, yes children included, but isn't it mainly targeted at everyone?

A lot of people understand 'for everyone' as 'for children', for some reason.

In a way I kind of like it that way. There's so many by the hair moments I've had with XCOM that I don't really find it cheap. I look at it more in a "what can I survive today" thing more than "Let me try to win without much issue"

Well, it kinda is in most cases. It's not like Mario has many hidden adult themes or hardcore challenges.
It's not like say The Simpsons where there's tons of adult jokes that kids just won't get. And in terms of challenge it has to be accessible to children.

When it comes to games for everyone does just mean child level gameplay and story really.
You couldn't call TLOU child friendly because the sections where you walk around gathering stuff are easy.

I like it being difficult I just don't like overt cheating.

That's probably my only real problem with the game, aside from that I'd prefer situational concealment or being able to have soldiers return to a concealed state.
It's kinda dumb how the moment you get seen the enemy all just magically know where all your soldiers are, even if one is on the other side of the map surrounded by cover. Not too big an issue though.


I'm finally in a good position again though, Avatar Project is only at like 5 bars, I get 341 supplies each month, plasma weapons all round and soldiers that don't die every mission...
I would like to get a Berserker autopsy going though.
Those things are absurdly rare in this game, I watched a playthrough of the first and while they were relatively uncommon they still appeared.
I've literally only seen them in two missions, when the Avenger got downed and some mission I failed so no corpses recovered. Bummer.
Since there's been no upgrade for the grenade launcher in forever I'm assuming they help with that, still just on the advanced ones.

Man I wish there was a Batman game where you could play as his baddies. The LEGO games are good, don't get me wrong, but it ain't the same.

I wish I could send the entire city into an ice age as Mr Freeze, I wish I could fly above Gotham's skyscrapers as Man-Bat, I wish I could set everything aflame as Firefly, or bust through the walls of banks as Killer Croc. It'd be awesome.

Depends in the country, the kid, and many other factors come into play there.

I wouldn't say it does with games most kids are at a similar sort of level if we're gonna say they'd be maybe 4 at youngest, though a 4 year old would probably need some sort of direction from an older person.


s*** man I keep finding new games I want and my wallet is already depressed enough as it is.
Still need to finish Fist of the North Star, game looks pretty fun. Why does it have to be based on a series with like 140 episodes tho...

It certainly is more difficult than people give it credit for.

Was it?
I feel like it wasn't, we're probably all just better at games now.
