The people I see mostly staying up to date with new releases are nintendo stuff? I really don't see people getting hype over arena shooter #69 and such.
Video game Disney adults
i wish we were still getting arena shooters
It's all extraction shooters now
i still don't know what that means. when i play warframe i shoot things and then i go to the extraction point
Extraction shooters are a little bit like battle royales except you can leave any time you want at a few contested points on the map and the incentive for staying and risking people shooting at you is randomized loot which you use for meta progression and/or combat gear for future runs
sounds like definitely not my kind of thing but i guess i can see the appeal
It's basically that, but people can shoot you and steal your stuff
not my stuff!
yea, the only people i do know that play current releases are nintendo fans so
I feel like it’s the opposite for the people I know. I know plenty of people with an old Switch who might play one or two games a year on or just break out Mario Kart when visitors come over, but it’s the people I know with a PS5 or a gaming PC who keep up with the new releases.
