In this episode Gino, Pete, and Em discuss XCOM: Enemy Unknown. We discuss the game's balance, correct approaches to combat, and how the game's base building stressed us out. We then pivot to discussing the game's theme of becoming that which you fight against. We wrap up by discussing how XCOM's capitalism in the face of extinction feels oddly prescient in the current moment.
