    I’ve heard about Xcom for years but never tried it, and BG3 has given me a turn-based itch to scratch, is it as good as everyone says?

      I might be biased, since I’ve been playing the XCOM games since they first came out 30 years ago. But yes, they are really, really good for turn-based combat. I am also a sucker for games with research trees.

      Honestly I enjoy the crap out of them. It’s definitely less story than BG3 and you WILL lose people you’re attached too. It goes on sale fairly often I think, though it’s worth it at full price.
