 XCOM 2? To be specific, the PS4 version including War of the Chosen, Shen's Last Gift, and Alien Rulers. I've played plenty of times on PC, but Grace is seeing this for the first time! As a result we're playing with the Tutorial and Lost And Abandoned turned on. The rest of the DLC will be integrated since The Nest and The Lost Towers are cool and all, but get awkward when you're trying to juggle everything We're playing on Commander difficulty, and since the game hard crashed twice while I was testing, we'll be foregoing Ironman and playing Honestman mode  Grace could never resist roasting me for eternity if I dared savescum so don't worry, you're in good hands.I should also mention I've never actually finished a Commander difficulty game so there's a very real possibility of us blowing it and dooming Earth. Drinking Game? That's right, XCOM 2 wasn't difficult enough, so I'm buying the most bitter beers I can find, and drinking on the following conditions: -Drink if XCOM misses -Drink if XCOM panics -Drink if an XCOM soldier goes into bleedout -Drink once per rank if an XCOM soldier dies (one for rookie, two for squaddie, etc) -Drink if a civilian dies The civilian condition includes Resistance members, VIPs, as well as the shameful narcs running around in Advent cities. We're here to SAVE humans after all, keep those grenades on a leash  The drinking conditions start once we officially take control of XCOM. I'm not being punished for Bradford's lovely commanding  Dude's great at planning stuff but always gets most of the squad killed when he does a tutorial.Episodes: Playlist Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 1 - Punished Bradford Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 2 - Save The Pandas Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 3 - It's Not Magic, It's Robots Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 4 - I'm Sick Of Getting Stabbed Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 5 - Bad Time Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 6 - Oops!

Should be a fun (over)watch! I'm kinda sad my last XCOM:EW campaign reached a dead-end because I early on had a recruit from Japan called Hideo Kojima.

At least get rid of the "miss" one. The rest you can work around, that one will just break you.

This is so insane that I'd never do it. And I like doing positively insane things. Cheers! **only partly because I have a low tolerance for alcohol since I basically never drink and get a buzz off half a lite beer, so I'd be in a coma within a half-hour of gameplay**

Super psyched for this: I love XCOM and also your drunken antics, so this should be an excellent combination. I hope you favor maneuvering for close-range flanking shots, or else the rookies are going to absolutely murder you with alcohol.

Are you going to do several missions in a row or just one per day?

We usually start recording, then continue recording for the rest of the night until I either get too drunk or too sleepy to continue. The amount of episodes vary depending on how much I end up drinking or what kind of shifts I've been working lately

My run through of Normal had a ton of zero-injury missions so that would make for a boring drinking game. Sure it would have been smart to do a run through of Commander beforehand but if I made good decisions, this thread wouldn't exist.

Commander is a nice comfortable difficulty, it's what I did the first time I played the game and there were some pretty scary moments. But when you flip things around and everything falls into place, it's great fun without being too obnoxious like with Legendary. Also drinking every time you miss a shot? I better not see scopes on everyone! You should take two drinks if you miss a 98% or 99%.

They’re unlocked immediately upon getting a proving ground with integrated DLC. You don’t need to meet Julian or anything. And it will save your rear end early on.

If you're careful you won't have more then a few misses per mission. How do you people play the game? Flank, blow up cover, get close. Never ever plink away at poo poo in full cover. Terror missions will be an absolute bitch though.

 New Episode!Let's Play XCOM 2 WOTC Episode 2 - Save The Pandas I haven't 100% decided on an episode schedule since, for example, I have seven shifts and zero days off this week, but I want to get this one out since the drinking conditions are in full effect now. Also note that Grace had a mouthful of sangria and got drunk enough to start singing early 90s music and forgot which game we're LPing, which is why I'm the only one doing the drinking conditions.

I like the reaction to "drinking on misses is too much" is "what if I drank after grazes." What about using drinks to purchase things? Don't drink on a miss, drink x to be allowed to throw a grenade, drink y to use chain shot. Weigh the advantages against the loss of brain power.
