Apparently they actually changed the way the xeno spawns work but it was too little too late.
Maybe this game will be a better package when both parts are released and bundled together, but I can't recommend buying just this one.
The brand is Disney now, sadly.
Honestly I think I had a better overall time with Colonial Marines. It's not a good game but I'll always give it credit for retconning Hicks' terrible off-screen death between movies.
This game isn't good either but it doesn't really have anything going for it aside from recreating some classic "Alien moments" in VR, which probably won't translate as well in 2D.
