  • Repetitive Gameplay: Missions often feel linear and repetitive due to limited environments, with players expressing dissatisfaction with the confined nature of the maps.
  • Weak Narrative and Dialogue: The story lacks depth and impact compared to previous entries, and the character dialogue is often criticized as cringeworthy or juvenile.
  • Limited Customization: The pre-made nature of operatives restricts player agency in of character development and strategy, which many fans of the series found disappointing.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to s

  • Base Building and Resource Management: The absence of base construction and a more complex tech tree detracts from the strategic elements that fans enjoyed in previous XCOM games.
  • Exploration and Enemy Activation: The game lacks the expansive maps and the thrill of activating enemy pods, reducing the strategic depth and exploration aspects of the gameplay.
  • Diverse Playstyles: The fixed abilities of operatives limit the variety of strategies players can employ, making the gameplay feel more constrained compared to the previous titles.

Summary

  • Overall, while XCOM: Chimera Squad introduces some fresh mechanics and serves as a casual entry point for new players, it is largely viewed as a simplified and less engaging version of its predecessors, lacking the depth and challenge that long-time fans expect from the XCOM series.
