So all in all, check this game out with the mod, but be prepared, it is unforgiving and a hueg time sink. Try not to savescum too often, as it can ruin some of the FUN. You will lose people you have been training up, and you will avenge them with alien blood. That is totally not made up, you can get shit popping up that makes you flat out rage, kind of like the old terror from the deep. Aliens can get fucking scary as time goes by, let me illustrate this with one picture (I've had missions with 40+ aliens): Much better enemy AI (their patrol routes are much more agressive, so sometimes you pop multiple pods and things can really snowball) More alien types compared to vanilla (that is enemy within) More varied misson settings (some of this is the dlc, some is long war repurposing maps and start locations) Different perk progression and classes, including a choice between 2 classes at first perk level Much more varied equipment choices, kind of like old xcom without the silly inventory bullshit Some things that have changed, though bear in mind I never played Enemy Within without LW, so some of the good stuff comes from that obviously: I felt that vanilla, while a great game, lacked a certain something, but my god, has long war delivered. I'm guessing a fair amount of y'all have played the original Enemy Unknown when it came out or played with the old X-coms, well with the long war, it's more or less a perfect successor to the old ones. It is gaming crack in it's purest form, so I guess this is in equal parts a warning and a spammy try this fucking game post, because it can hook you like the best of them. So I got the whole xcom set with all the dlcs during the christmas sales (bless our lord gaben, slasher of the prices) and proceeded to install long war on it and suddenly it's a month later.
