never played xcom 2 but i've watched videos and got the gist. I came into this game wanting an efficient & straightforward tactical turn based game and I got exactly what I wanted.

i noticed a 'draft agents' mod out by notsolonewolf that lets you gradually pick your agents from a pool as opposed to all 4 from the start which is a big step towards the right direction. a long wars-esque, hunt all 3 factions type of mod that encourages roster diversity and management would really flesh the game out imo. a little legendary armor/weapon aesthetics to help with end game psychology would be a cherry on top.
