Considering that the vanilla game drops a pretty obvious hint to possible sequels in the final cut scene, I had hoped DLC wouid go this direction, but if it's intent is still to suggest a future XCOM 3 altogether, then I'm fine with it. Find and raid the Chosen’s strongholds to defeat the enemy for good. The Chosen can also invade the strategy layer and ravage XCOM’s global operations. I, and probably others, were hoping for a more interstellar scope, one which might shed more light on the Ethereals. The Chosen are on the hunt for the Commander and will kidnap, interrogate, and kill XCOM’s soldiers to complete their objective. WOTC doesn't add much story to the game at all, just a few extra cut scenes. If you've beaten the game numerous times, then this is kind of a let down as WOTC doesn't span the length of the game in a meaningful way, other than adding some extra cut scenes at the end. After defeating the Chosen, it's just back to the vanilla game. They talk CONSTANTLY during missions and while in the Geoscape, which is the most annoying part of the game. They can be challenging in combat, but not as much as the Rulers. The Chosen are kind of boring and uninspired. The Reaper faction’s roots formed in the early days of the. Today we’re introducing the Reapers, a scrappy cell of human loyalists who live on the fringes of society and keep mainly to themselves. An integrated grappling hook allows the Skirmisher to scale structures, but it can also help close the gap between the Skirmisher and its target - either by grabbing the enemy and pulling them in, or allowing the Skirmisher to fly towards its prey. All previous DLC has been streamlined into the game, sparing you the extra missions and cut scenes. XCOM 2 ’s expansion introduces new Factions, unique pockets of resistance unaffiliated with XCOM. The Skirmisher is an offensive powerhouse, capable of dealing with threats running the gamut from up close to afar. Breakthrough and inspired research give more life to that aspect of the game and the bonuses are appropriate. The Chosen themselves are fairly tough opponents. Factions and faction orders give the game more depth, and the three new classes are fun. I'm mostly very satisfied with the WOTC DLC, so if you enjoyed the base game, then it's worth the investment. I'm very glad to see that Firaxis is still producing DLC for this game. This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
