Feedback essays are great, but the rating system is a nice way for people to give simple feedback without having to make under three word posts. Clogs up the works a bit when you start getting them in bulk. :p

I haven't heard from the dude since last November. His profile says last seen on January 29th, but I was MIA from Gamigon at that point so I wouldn't know. :p I was working on another commission of the Gamigon Goat at the time, and then he just dropped off the face of the earth for as far as I...

Heh, I feel your pain. I was total garbage at XCOM: Enemy Within. I'm not sure if I've just gotten more experienced or if XCOM 2's base-building/strategic side is just easier for me to understand, but I'm way better at XCOM 2. I'm breezing through Commander difficulty with only a few hitches so...

Still, it makes me wonder if EXALT actually existed in XCOM 2's canon or not. It could be that they did exist when the aliens first invaded, and perhaps they were even the beginnings of the ADVENT coalition. Or maybe they were just completely made up for the Commander's simulation.

It was definitely an interesting way of linking XCOM 2's alternate universe to XCOM: EU/EW's universe. It's also a great way to explain why your soldiers start out using conventional weapons and armor, too! I feel like that would have been a really difficult plot hole to explain away if Firaxis...

Ditto. Makes me wonder if there's any story significance, or if it's just there as a callback. Since, at least in XCOM 2's canon, the stuff with EXALT was just part of a tactics simulation for the Commander.

I'm going to be a butt and self-promote the XCOM-themed drawing I just finished. :p Figured y'all would be more interested in it than my normal circles, because out of my usual group of friends and acquaintances I'm the only one that plays XCOM. ["XCOM- Calvin Wright" on deviantART] It took...

It pretty accurately sums up how I felt that night. Sleep-deprived and slap-happy as shit. When I saw the original drawing from 2006 I just lost it. Irony too strong.

Oh, please. Just this week I went through my deviantART gallery to clean up. I started posting art to deviantART in 2006 when I was 11 years old. You have seen NOTHING. I have stared into the abyss and it stared back with horrible anatomy and poorly aliased lines. :p In fact, I just recently...

They are very much my get-out-of-jail-free card. I always have one or two on missions. I try not to use them for gimmicky BS, but if things are going terrible and I have people out of position, I just slap one down for basically a free turn. Speaking of broken things, has anyone tried lighting...

Currently drawing one of the randomly generated soldiers I got in XCOM 2. Looks really cool so far! :D I hate drawing armor though holy shit

Nooo! Worst news ever! D: Probably for the best, though, hahah...

Yeah, acid grenades are freakin' lovely. Also mimic beacons, while technically not grenades, are over powered as heck. I love them so much and I hope they never get nerfed.

Aww, RIP the rating system. D: But yeah... It took 1 frag, 1 incendiary, and 1 flashbang grenade, but the f*ck tower perished. My grenadier had a good day.

Okay, this is completely off-topic, but this just happened and I needed to share it. Welcome to the F*ck Tower WE'VE GOT FUN AND GAMES

Just beat my first campaign of XCOM 2. Working on Commander difficulty now. Figured I'd drop by again since I've been in an XCOM mood.

I've sort of returned to do more art despite having not drawn anything in over a month. Life, why must you be so busy?

Le gasp! I haven't been forgotten. :) My new cat is named Ammy after Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun from Japanese mythology. I named her that because one of my favorite games of all time is Ōkami, where the protagonist Ammy is a white wolf that paints with her tail. Since my new cat is all...
