I really like WotC, but for different reasons than I like, say, UFO:EU. Anyone can recommend WotC? Does it correct the vanilla game and adds the true experience? Can it be a replacement until PP comes along? That said, read several reviews stating the expansion really nailed it, and it was the definite game, and even the true XCom experience. I WANTED to love the game, but even went so far as thinking that it had been made by a different team. The time limits are such a f’cking lazy design choice (my favorite thing about Willpower in PP is just that it seems such a simple and elegant choice to add an extra layer of decision and reflection, and that was the kind of thing I was expecting in XCom 2, not timed missions!) The idea of humanity surrendering to the aliens is a complete treason to everything we fought for in the first game.

The classes seem just a rehash of the original ones, like making a delicious dinner and having to eat it again next day for lunch, never the same thing. Loved the first Firaxis XCom, played and replayed both EU and EW, but when it came to XCom 2!.
