xcom is just a 30 hour long tutorial for long war. according to the developers of xcom

It is true though. Vanilla XCOM is so lackluster and so mediocre compared to what Long War has added. The fact that Long War hasn't really 'added' anything, such as models or textures, makes it even more amazing.
Then change it. One of the amazing features of long war is that you can tune it to be exactly the way you want. For example I didn't really like the bullet spongey nature of the late game aliens so I cut down on their scaling to be something along the vanilla lines, although stronger to account for the more powerful weapons you have in long war.
Yeah, the extra challenge was enjoyable at the start, but down the line when you start seeing groups of 6 30HP mutant berserkers with 50HP plus Ethereals floating in the background, it's just not fun anymore.
