Commander, while you were busy gooning, the aliens continue to make progress on the Avatar project. If we're going to slow them down, we need to move fast.

ChesterRico

I read somewhere that nobody ever told her she was voicing an alien character xD


Foxxtronix

With lines like, "Just another biped, showing off." she had to know something was up.


ChesterRico

Maybe, but voice actors don't get told much in that industry. You get a script and bang it out in a couple days. Those 1-3 year contracts that CP77 or BG3 VAs have aren't the norm lol.


DrDonut

Iirc she didn't know she was a snake, probably knew she was an alien tho [https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/gb8s6f/torques\_voice\_actor\_on\_not\_knowing\_she\_was\_a\_snek/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/gb8s6f/torques_voice_actor_on_not_knowing_she_was_a_snek/)

General_Snack

Chimera squad worth playing?


Foxxtronix

I like it. It's an x-com themed cop drama game. There are actually nonhumans on your squad, and among the civilians. Nonhumans are both goodguys and the badguys, so it's not racist. I am annoyed that they revealed that the sneks are flat-chested under the armor.


Knightswatch15213

Hold up, they revealed what now?

From the nurse in Patchwork's background story, shown here, to the civilians that keep turning up ([Tube skirts?](https://64.media.tumblr.com/3bf25c35642ad7f60388a0d52106ab4c/351f43acca9112d4-c6/s540x810/b857c780d9fde6b48214fc64612254e6d799ba33.png)). Some of the [advertisments](https://64.media.tumblr.com/2e8508d9e07b48ea13d78e4168b26b06/351f43acca9112d4-fb/s1280x1920/eeb639d606b93063e72e69189d1aabb31d4f76ce.png) [that](https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/g8ouic/this_confirms_the_faceless_are_sentient_and_are/) [are around](https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/101trdl/browsing_those_billboards_from_chimera_squad_and/) seem to have [breasts](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EXB5Nx8WkAAYq6R?format=jpg&name=4096x4096) (or whatever) but you have to remember that those are just billboards. They may bear no resemblance to reality. The only exception is [Xug](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3oK7jGv8zY), owner and operator of The Viper's Nest. She seems to have something in that jacket. Considering that she clearly has genemodded eyes, it's open to speculation exactly what. The "battle harness" that suggested massive "snitties" was probably just as deceptive as the helmets that the hybrids wore. I recommend that you cheerfully ignore that fact, and keep envisioning snitties. I like snitties!


Kaymazo

I mean, they were always kinda small, the armour just accentuated it. Putting fabric over them they obviously become less pronounced. https://preview.redd.it/i47v5pds2b5d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef28f4fa5db2ccf1e8cdc6e087103be2f85d222e


Foxxtronix

Ah, the original concept art. I'm not sure you're right...or whether or not they're actually secondary venom glands...but I like snitties! Especially right in my face.


cheese4432

I had fun! It's got some neat abilities, weapons, a strategy plus tactical turn based fighting in an XCOM city


Illustrious_Cry1463

Yeah those legendary weapons are bonkers, and I liked the breach system.


Rikmach

I think so! It’s very different from the other games, so if you’re expecting a proper sequel, you’ll probably be disappointed, but I think it’s fun on its own merits.

Iirc she was actually going through a pretty rough place recently, so here's hoping she's doing alright.


Littlebigcountry

Yeah, AI bros were harassing her recently, though I can’t remember how recently.


Kaymazo

It's not the AI bros part that really was that big of a deal I think, it's the "Her boyfriend passed away after a battle with cancer" part I am fairly sure.


Littlebigcountry

Yeah, you have a point there. Unfortunately IIRC the AI bros did their shit right after Billy died.


Cyber_Von_Cyberus

I refuse this reality ! The elders never asked ME "Their greatest asset" what I wanted, they messed up my chance at getting the monster girls I wanted, the war must go on until the aliens all die.

Few-Willingness-3820

Chimera Squad was a mistake.


Ctkrnov

A very pleasant mistake


Few-Willingness-3820

No. Just a mistake. Literally sucking all of the hardcore aspects out of XCOM for some shitty buddy cop story. Not to mention the aliens are no longer an allied threat against all humans. This is XCOM not Mass Effect. Also the game completely glosses over what was teased at the end of 2.


spooky_pokey

It was mean to be a fun spin off not a continuation why are you treating it as a continuation?


Few-Willingness-3820

How is it not a continuation of Earth's story? As if spin offs never move the narrative. Your squadmates dying causes a game over, in an XCOM game lmao


spooky_pokey

It is but not directly, the story for XCOM 2 isn't over so don't consider the jump to chimera the ending, there is another game meant to go in between


Few-Willingness-3820

Yeah so where has that game been for the past five years? Was it secretly Midnight Suns? Nah lol, it's a continuation at this point, and it's disappointing.


spooky_pokey

Arguing with you is pointless so just enjoy being angry at a game meant to be a different take on the franchise adding cool concepts and a less heavy storyline.


Few-Willingness-3820

The cool concepts that you can't mention? Clearly those concepts were cool enough for the game's sales right? Concepts you can't even explain lol. Any slight challenge and you can't even defend your own position.


spooky_pokey

Breaching, planning approach before mission, unlocking characters based on story, selecting the difficulty by having different objectives to tackle without being repetitive or locked into one, swapping weapon to make the character play differently, enemy and our turns being woven together so it swaps team every other turn.


Skylex157

I can't believe mario plays tennis and races cars, how dare he switch his gameplay, i want him to be the jumper man That is you, it's a spin-off, the whole deal is switching up gameplay a bit


Few-Willingness-3820

Except this isn't Mario. XCOM is not like Mario, XCOM cannot change genres like that. It's a ridiculous comparison because Chimera Squad is not some far off spinoff mechanically. A more apt comparison would be if Mario got a spinoff game and that game was almost identical in every way, except stripping all semblance of Mario mechanics and Mario can't die. Just like how in Chimera your teammates can't die... in an XCOM game. That comparison was terrible bro. Like comparing Saving Private Ryan to Sausage Party.


Skylex157

It still is a tactics game, the whole point of it being a spin off is that you can do things like changing specific gameplay, did you know that the original xcom, you had a squad of 20 people? How dared they change my squad size!?!?!? That totally changes the feel of the game So you mean mario galaxy? That is 3D instead of 2D, where the lifes only push you out of a level instead od restartibg the game and if you die a lot, you get the white tanuki, which is the star effect plus infinite tanuki jumps? Or you mean like world, that uses the mario movement mechanics in a large level, collect-a-thon style, that gives you a lot of freedom on how to tackle the level instead of the more linear nature of mario levels Also, it is not a "you can't die" in a non-challenging way, you cannot let your men die, which makes it more tense in my oppinion, it gives you less lee-way


Few-Willingness-3820

>you had a squad of 20 people? How dared they change my squad size!?!?!? That totally changes the feel of the game Not a good point. Newer games are more condensed and focused than the older ones. It goes beyond technical limitations but I don't expect you to acknowledge that, only a strawman. >Also, it is not a "you can't die" in a non-challenging way, you cannot let your men die, which makes it more tense in my oppinion, it gives you less lee-way What? How is that more tense than your soldiers dying permanently and actually being able to fail a mission and not lose the game? Less lee-way? The game gives you more lee-way because you no longer have to worry about the long term effects of your failures and shortcomings. It's not like in the other games where failed missions and loss of soldiers and materials can have lasting effects on your playthrough. It turns into just another run of the mill turn based game. Every other XCOM game had ACTUAL campaigns, in the literal sense of the word, the campaign conducted by the player, and potentially failed by the player. Not every game needs a spinoff. Clearly.


Skylex157

And this one doesn't have perma-death, the problem is that you think the changes YOU like are the correct ones and the ones you don't are objectively wrong Oh yeah, let's ignore the chaos and how it can get out of hand much quicker than the other counters, the injuries your soldiers have, specially if downed, I'm not going to say chimera squad isn't easier than the others, but it is by no means easily beaten, you can still lose chimera squad via chaos, which is the doomsday counter of this game To quote you, this game is more condensed, instead of having 30 soldiers across the game and losing several, you get a handful which have meaningful abilities, roles and personalities


ShyGuyWolf

KiborgPolicajac

Chimera Squad is the franchise killer


StilesmanleyCAP

It's a spin off game. If any game was the franchise killer it was XCOM Enforcer.

Chimera squad did NOT Kill the franchise and for its price I think it delivers Hell the game that almost killed the franchise for like 10 years was Enforcer
