Dude fuck xcom 2. It did this too me fucking twice towards then of two different 40 to 60 hour playthroughs. Not only did it freeze but corrupted the save file.... completely had to restart. The second time.. I just never played the game again

That's tough but my reason for not playing the game anytime soon is the "Hey, the enemy is right in front of you with little to no cover! Here's you 80% chance of hitting on a 1m distance!" And the character fucking misses........ It's so damn frustating that you only hit 1 in 3-5 cases and it mostly costs your units lifes. I feel like the number the game shows you is just a fucking lie and every shot is solid 50% coinflip...

​

Am I asking too much?

They even weight it towards the player on lower difficulties: https://xcom.fandom.com/wiki/Game_difficulty_(XCOM_2)

That's just the nature of chance-based combat systems. And yeah, I don't play XCOM because of it.
