I used to like multiplayer a lot more than I do now and there are two main reasons why I don't like it very much anymore:

  1. The games themselves all use developer owned servers that are not moderated except by hard coded rules handled by the software. It's not good enough to get rid of actual problem players and can be exploited to make things even worse by those same problem players.
  2. All I ever hear coming through the mic are sexist, racist and homophobic comments from children who's voices are like nails on a chalkboard.

These days my primary multiplayer game is Elden Ring. No chat system (except on PS5 for some reason) and all I do is invade people to act like a mini boss.

I've been playing Helldivers 2 without voice enabled, and the tagging/marking system works well. There is a sort of a response wheel as well.

I saw dunky playing that the other day and I'm kinda interested. But I couldn't tell if it was like tarkov with pvp or if it is solely pve. If it's just PvE: I want it. It looks visually like if Star Wars and Terminator were in the same universe.

It's purely pve with no plans for pvp

Sweet. Is it required to be online? I'm gonna buy it today but if it needs to be online I have to get it on PC and not PS5.

Edit: PS store says Ps+ required so PC it is.
