Hello everyone. Hope everyone had a good week. I was out of town for most of it for Thanksgiving so I didn't game much beyond some Balatro on my phone. Hope everyone has a great week!

Yeah it sounds good a buddy of mine is playing it quite a bit. I dont care much for multipayer shooters but Arc Raiders seems legit FUN™

Yeah extraction shooters are very much not My Thing. But god damn this game encourages interesting pvp dynamics simply because the robots are so damn dangerous. Even a couple of the weaker flying drones can be enough to overwhelm you, or at least make it very easy for another player to finish you off, so there is this whole dynamic of whether to fight or sneak and that extends to both players and bots. Do you fight the robot that might spot you and risk an opportunistic player ganking you while you're distracted? Do you risk the bots coming down on you if you open up on that hapless looter? Hence I have taken to playing peacemaker, Sheriff, and medic all at once and it is very very fun.
