tl;dr your troops will miss point blank shots with 98% chance to hit repeatedly, and enemies will 1-shot you from across the map with pistols with perfect accuracy. Every. Fucking. Time.
That first one is an awesome video, but what happened is that alien proc'ed lightning reflexes which, combined with simultaneous overwatch, caused all the shots to miss. There is a mod where you can enable sequential overwatch, which makes the game easier because you hit more and waste less ammo/opportunity.
That's also a modded version of the game. That particular alien doesn't have lightning reflexes in the base game. Maybe none do; not sure.
Base game Lightning Reflexes (xcom.fandom.com) only avoids one Overwatch, check the notes section on that link. I'm pretty sure that's the Long War mod, which makes it so Lightning Reflexes can clear all shots in a single move round, gives it to Thin Men, and also pumps enemy health like crazy. Thin Men only have 4 health in the base game, that thing has 12 health.
Of course I would make an XCOM comment on poal and get schooled; after I play 1500 hours.
It is probably Long War, yeah.
