The writing involved in the Xenopedia is very well-done and most of time really helpful in-game! The advice the Xenopedia gives to you after some research should be taken seriously and is simply not just eye-candy for fanatics. It gives me a good indie game feeling (sorry that sounded a little hipsterish). In my opinion, I really like the artwork the developers have decided to go with. On graphics, it's either hit and miss for people playing Xenonauts.

And like the old xcom, it is brutal when you make a mistake in the game, one bad move and pop goes James Gallaway, gunned down by plasma lasers. With countless structures and objects (beautifully well done) to use as cover (or to demolish with a wocket) it spices up your ingenious knowledge of tactics. The geoscape air battles is definitely revamped in which you can somewhat control your planes, which is badass. For example there are more than 1 exit out of your plane (OMG WTFBBQ YES). But for those xcom players, we realize many nice changes in the game that makes us giddy. Gameplay wise, it feels like a typical TBS and has a nice touch with old xcom players. And I have to say after spending around 5 hours with the game, it's amazing. And I have been playing a ton of openxcom and JA 1.13 (mods that you should GET). UFO: Enemy Unknown has been one of my favourite games alongside with Jagged Alliance and Silent Storm.
