What if Fallout was An Adventure Game But in Africa?
Beautiful Desolation is a unique post apocalypse adventure game set in Africa, that's got a lot of vibes from Fallout, but does it's own thing by adding some South African culture.

    The Long war mods has ruined base Xcom for me. it is a much harder experience that just kicks you in the gnards and keeps kicking you until you muster the will to get up. at that point it gets way more engaging and more fun. Base Xcom compared to Long war, is such a freaking breeze. after having completed a Long war on Commander, i for the fun of it tried out base xcom 2 on legendary. And it was just so much easier, like i had evolved my game knowledge and tactics so much from that one campaign that everythign else just seemed like childs play.

    Xcom 2's music is more Heroic, guess to fit with being humanitys last heroes. While Enemy within is more dreadful, like a desperate struggle against a monstrous enemy.

    The only flaw with this game is graphics. Lithtech engine was a bit downgraded compared to other engines at the time so this game feels like a 98/99 game instead of 2001/2002. The use of the lights of AVP 1 was better. BTW this game is the best of the series.
