You don't want any X-COM remake? You want the good old stuff?

WHAT YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY DO:
1) Buy this on Steam
2) Go to http://openxcom.org/about
3) Install OpenXcom! (and maybe some community mods for fresh gameplay)
4) Enjoy OLD XCOM OPTIMIZED for both new and old generation of players

WHAT WILL THAT GIVE YOU:
  • Resolution settings - Beautiful 1080p with great GUI scale options (I recommend Geo:1/3 display and Battle:1/2 display)
  • Easy and smart Save&Load system - F5 & F9 for quick saves, auto-saving, unlimited save slots, detailed savefile descriptions
  • Shortcuts - Tab & L.Shift for switching between soldiers, RMB on button to move all items and more in Options>Controls
  • No Copyright Problem - Contains no copyrighted assets (requires Steam copy installed - hence Step 1)
  • Two separate launchers - You'll have one for Steam's emulated X-Com and one for polished OpenXcom
  • No need for emulator - OpenXcom is clone of the original - entirely recreated in C++ / SDL, no need of DOSBox
  • Open Source - perhaps make a mod yourself
  • Runs on most platforms - Win, Linux, Mac, Android you name it. You can even make it a portable version
  • Mods - A total must have mod is Extra Ufo interior variants (link in comments) it absolutely refreshed my love for the gameplay
  • All bugs and glitches fixed - that "Battleship corner-Flying suit" trick grandpa taught me will no longer fly
  • Single Battle generator - Cool mission creator in the main menu (under "New Battle") Great for quick challenges and experiments
  • Many configuration options - So.. many.. options.. Options>Advanced lets you switch even stuff like Sneaky AI, explosion height or realistic globe lighting - the settings menu is simply top tier

PERSONALLY FAVORITE FEATURES:
  • Renaming of stuff - I will no longer lose sleep over a typo in Bese num.6's name, plus you can rename even aircraft!
  • Weapons control in UFO interception - Turn off/on aircraft's weapon during UFO interception, no longer wasting my precious Fusion Balls
  • Aircraft inventory and crew management in hangar - Equip Craft>Craft>Equipment>Inventory lets you prepare soldiers' equip beforehand
  • Button to enter the base from geoscape - my Win99-DOS version didn't have this
  • Radar range indicators on Geoscape - my Win99-DOS version also didn't have this
  • Language support - I had to put on the original 1995 Czech translation for the ultimate nostalgia
  • Great Community - lively Discord servers and annual charity streams (All the <3 to SupSuper)
  • OpenXcom Wiki as part of UFOpaedia.org - you can find neat info like Hidden Features there

FEEDBACK:
My best friend got into XCOM with my XCOM 2012 recommendation. When I showed him the glory of old X-Com through OpenXcom, he fell in love and admitted that if it wasn't this polished that he probably wouldn't be able to get into it. OpenXcom can make new X-Com fans!

I see. I appreciate all the information m8.

Yes! You will have two "launchers" X-COM (steam) and OpenXcom

I see, I guess I misunderstood what openxcom was. If I were to download it, would I still be able to run the game from steam?

"none of the copyrighted files are actually included with the project, players still need their own copy of X-COM to play" and this is the reason

Nope, You need Steam game to install OpenXcom.

Wait a minute. Couldn't you just not buy this game on steam, and still download open xcom?
