The increase in items is a bit much at first, as you have around six different types of equipment to select for your troops right off the bat. The sky battles have also went through a serious overhaul, no longer will you have a chance of getting lucky with that one brave interceptor against a large ship, now you desperately need increased Ariel capabilities to fend off larger threats. For example, you may find that some classes such as the infantryman is very useful in the early game, but a rocketeer is needed to mop up large packs of enemies later in the campaign. Speaking of which, the mod also adds classes to the game, and revamps the existing ones. It can feel daunting at first, but the mod adds a true sense of struggle to the game, the aliens feel like an actual threat to earth, rather than cannon fodder to gain a rank up. Every single move has to be questioned and evaluated against the potential risks, otherwise your squad will not survive. The mod forces you to think strategically, instead of just praying that a pack of aliens won’t be at your dash location. Needless to say, the first pack of aliens i encountered all seemed to melt my troops with relative ease. Having completed Enemy Within many times, over many difficulties, i felt confident selecting normal difficulty ignoring the mods warning to try the game on casual. The aliens have also received a much-needed difficulty adjustment. Long war not only adds a huge amount of hours to the game, but also gives the player vast amounts of choice, with new weapons, armor and even new research options. However, a genius group of modders have released a mod titled Long War. The only thing XCOM was missing after Enemy Within was, well, more XCOM. This incredible expansion pack (not DLC), adds many cool new additions to the original game, such as mech troopers, or genetically enhanced super soldiers, along with a new campaign and a new enemy to face. Fast forward a few and XCOM Enemy Within is released. The original game placed you as the commander, the one in charge of organizing earth’s final defense against the alien invaders.
