Uh okay. At first I thought the waifu ending up being a racist cop was funny af, but if people are like 'this is the best character EVER', it's not looking good, gotta say it.

Its okay to laugh at a snake alien that doesn't like those offworlder aliens because it is an obvious joke, come on.

Also WOTC is finally on sale on Steam so I'm jumping on this soon. That said Alien Hunters and Shen's Last Gift are not part of right? I'd need to buy them separately? They're on sale til May 7 so I'm not buying right now. I figure I'll play Chimera for a while then jump back to XCOM2 with WOTC before the sale ends.

It doesn't include them as part of the purchase, but if you get them, they're re-integrated in a different way to match the DLC's new progression, so if you haven't played them before and want to see their unique missions (they're nothing special), you might even want to get them first.

The game has come out now hasn't it? I'm really excited to get my alien cop on.

15 more minutes. Do I need to restart Steam when it goes live to trigger the Install prompt? It's been literal years since I bought a game at release.

Edit: Ahhh gently caress it doesn't unlock for another hour. :negative:

You can disable this though. It's a cool way to use the AH additional armor even if you don't like the rulers!

Well, this is based off XCOM2, so I'm personally guessing this will turn your poo poo laptop into a pile of molten metal. XCOM2 stresses out my pretty dang solid desktop.

my consequences are I forgot to check at the top of the hour and now I started the download 12 whole minutes late :mad:
