And no fucking psi operatives because that's heresy.

You've got it all backwards! The obvious only way to play this is to make everyone a psionic sniper, then pretend that you're an elite team of Starcraft Ghosts (leveling psi-shadow/concealment/whatever it's called is required).

Cant. Psi is its own class now.

Wow I want to watch those...  But I don't want to sully the beautiful official "gameplay" video with harsh reality.  Still gives me chills, mm.

It won't sully anything. Those are works of pure beauty.

Which is nice, since it seems like as a result they are more fleshed out, all those 17 abilities and such.. Hopefully we get some old callbacks like the mind probes and psi-amps from the first game.

Looking at Beaglerush's videos... I really wish I had a computer capable of running anything from this decade.

Really? I mean, I managed to run XCOM on Intel integrated graphics pretty well. I'd be surprised if the sequel's going to be much worse given general improvements in graphics processing.

[Twinwolf]

Eh. I was basing it off the fact that I couldn't run The Walking Dead or Valkyria Chronicles. I'll try the XCOM demo on Steam.

EDIT: It says "Intel HD graphics" on the side of the computer, is that any good?

Oh god I want a Half Life 2 mod of this so bad.

That would actually be really cool

Half Life 3 confirmed supplanted

You're fucked.

Really though, it's pretty bottom of the barrel but, as mentioned, XCOM will run fine with it. XCOM2 will probably not be much more demanding.

[Twinwolf]

Thought so. I really need to save up for a half-decent gaming computer.

[Flying Dice]

Well, it'll depend on which Intel chipset it is; the higher ones can definitely run XCOM even if it won't be smooth.

[Aklyon]

Good luck figuring out which one you have though! They all have identical names afaik from when I had to deal with it.

[Twinwolf]

Alright, tried the demo; works, but even on the lowest possible graphics it's rough. So yeah, should probably think about getting a better computer.

Watched those Fuck you Advent vids LightningFalcon was talking about. If the game can be modded THAT easily, it's going to be AMAZING.

Something tells me that it's worth $60 on modding alone, tbh.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

It should be noted that the "modding" in question is Beagle fucking around with the .ini files. He did say that they were very well commentated, though.
