    Judging from the reaction to Enemy Unknown's demo, it seems a lot of the fans of the original game feel that the new one over-simplifies certain features, hence why I made this thread, as Xenonauts is trying to remake the original X-Com and stick as closely to that formula as possible.

    I haven't played the demo for Enemy Unknown myself, but I'm very strongly considering pre-ordering it.

    I absolutely love Xenonauts, but it's currently only in alpha, and I don't want to tire myself of it before it is even fully released.
    My bad, as I read it, it sounded like you where confusing Enemy Unknown for the FPS.

    Like with any other remake there are always going to be the haters, always be those that are stuck in a nostalgic rut. After playing the Demo I was impressed enough. And luckily for me I didn't play the original so can't be tainted by the memory of it.

    Some of those concerns discussed in the video. I think its an interesting take in the video. You are forced to commit to your action.

    I don't quite get this? What's wrong with being disappointed with some of the changes in the new game? Everyone can't like the same thing.
