New to the sub. Just wanted to say that after getting burned by battlefield 2042 and being disappointed with Halo, I had really lost all hope for the future of video gaming.

Then I started playing extraction and it’s been a breath of fresh air. I can’t emphasize enough how nice it is to play a clean, polished, well thought out game with appealing cosmetics and great gun play. Even the minimal microtransactions are reasonable and the fact that you can actually earn credits just by playing is unheard of these days. More than anything though, it’s just plain, casual fun. No FOMO or pressure to be on every second of free time. I love that I can hop on with my brothers at the end of a long day, kill some goop boys, have some laughs, scream as we get chased around by a smasher, and get true satisfaction from working as a team through the harder difficulties. I know the game has its critics, but for me personally, it feels like going back to the old days of just having fun gaming with my brothers when we were kids.

Thank you R6 Extraction for getting back to what gaming is supposed to be. Fun.
