Well, that's like...great and all. Is this game a big deal though? I played it a few hours and it never really hit with me. The movement was cool, but the actual gameplay was like Parkour Payday.
Yes. It is.
I know zero people who play it, so let me into the inside knowledge about it.
My friends and I play it nightly, because it's a good casual FPS and it has many modes, decent progression. Honestly environment destruction is such a powerful mechanic for making games have variability between matches that it makes each feel unique - like a puzzle even at times.
There's not a great deal of free games right now that are capturing our attention, we wanted an FPS this month, and there's been no paid games everyone's been willing to jump on.
Funny enough we're waiting on Arc Raiders to drop which is also a game by the studio behind The Finals.
Can you rephrase this in a way that isn't an ad? 😂

"Hi, my friends and I play it. We're people. Here's why we like it."
"You sound like an ad".
My brother in Christ, you asked for someone to tell you about the game and then I did - wtf did you think was going to happen. I'm not even really giving it a glowing review. I'm mostly saying there's not a lot of great competition in the scene right now and this game does enough good to be fun to play. At the cost of free, my poorer friends are happy to play it while we wait for the next paid game we know we want to get.
I'd love to be playing Nightreign but it's not good enough for them to buy in, and other games like... Oh what's that extraction shooter by the original Hell Let Loose team... Hunger? That's not out yet.
Like ya dawg, I like The Finals - I'm a guy on the Internet responding to a comment from a random about the Finals. That's a pretty safe bet.
Still an ad.
Still a bot.
Everything they said is factual. Games are subjective, either try it yourself or watch someone else lol
