      Interesting. I’m a random Internet stranger and I thought it was boring and not fun. However a lot of people liked it so I’m not saying it’s bad it just wasn’t for me.

        Is this now a fight between random internet strangers? Are we supposed to use slurs? (JK, just in case)

        Totally fair! Nothing can appeal to everyone, and I would never be accused of having average tastes. Loads of people seem to like Mario Cart Kart, but playing it makes me want to Kyle my way through a wall. I had just played Prey Mooncrash, and was jazzed up on the loop mechanic. If I played again I may feel differently.

        My thoughts were not too dissimilar. Definitely with you, fellow internet stranger, on the boring, but I found it to be a mixed bag of fun so never finished the game. Though it’s been some time since I played, I may revisit to see if that has changed over the years.

    Is this just Epic begging people to come to their platform and shelling out $ to cover the cost for devs?

      I never spent a single cent at their store and probably never will, but since Epic is so keen on burning money I am happy to help them with that.

      That would imply that, at some point in the future, Epic might not be able to cover their devs through the EGS and have to close it. Which would probably mean you lose access to games on there.

      I don’t think they let you turn it off on launch, or maybe I couldn’t find the setting. I had the laggiest julliannas ghosting around my map every run.

      Single player was great, the invasions were awful.

          No. You can disable it. There is a character that sometimes spawns that’ll hunt you down. If you have online play disabled, it’ll always be a bot.

          Very occasionally, on certain maps people or bots invade. It’s dark souls 1 style. It doesn’t impact that much until you are trying to beat it, then you get invaded once or twice.

    Hmm, it appears I already owned it on there. Which means they put it out as a free game at least once before already.

    The only games I have on there are free games.

    I played this on Game Pass (Gamepass? I don’t recall how they brand it) years ago and had fun with it. I’d enjoy playing it again, assuming I could forget my previous playthrough.

    I had it on PlayStation a while back. Really enjoyed so much about it, but ultimately found the controls on console to just be unbearable.

      Don’t worry, the controls on PC are just as unbearable. It’s that style of mouse movement that would be fine in an RPG but is absolutely terrible with an FPS.

        Oh interesting, I had Dishonored on PC and didn’t remember it being so bad. And I know what you mean, the controls feel so off beat though it’s hard to put my finger on exactly what it is. Some kind of acceleration/mapping function thing. I like to use motion controls for ADS as well and those were very sensitive.

    I’ll take it, throw it on a 300+ pile, but I won’t install your shit Sweeney.
