It's been around a long while and it's come a long way. The core of the game was pretty good to begin with -- super basic start arenas, shoot critters, get loot, but they've also done a lot over the years to give the game some geography and verticality, which massively improves the experience. The Kinetic Temple is open now with one of the best 'monologues' I've gotten to experience, and it's very colorful. You may sometimes need to restart a few times to get the loot you want. And don't expect to be able to ADS (there *is* a specific item type for a "zoom" effect, though). Honestly, it's well worth it, and coop seemed to work really well when I tried it too.

You wouldn't hack a healthcare company who denied your neighbor's sick 5-year old daughter because the cost of treatment + interest exceeds her projected lifetime earning potential. ...would you?

Black Ice, this is a game inspired by Looter Shooters, primarily lookin at Borderlands for this reference as its the closest feeling game, even the Steam page references it as inspiration! Loot is fun to earn, can be hard to replace and is overall very addicting to grind for if you get into the meat of the game. One issue we have when it comes to Borderlands is the endgame, you just grind BiS till you can fight a boss to get more BiS, in Black Ice however, once you beat the game you unlock New Game+, and ontop of that you can even make alternate characters for new builds. One thing I really wish we got, is class mods. Having things to buff weapons types you don't feel are super good, we have Long Range damage, but no Close Range damage, along with this I love how much gear we can equip but it doesnt feel like enough. I'd love a class mod slot that provides us one more bonus, but atp its just bloat on the balance. I love this game more than some of the Borderlands games, and I can't wait to see future updates.

This little hidden gem is basically Tron meets Borderlands. When the AAA looter shooters feel stale, this is like a great break away from that.. Sadly, there's not much of a community, given how overlooked this game really is.. and I would love to see it leave early access and go 1.0. I nearly bought this on itch but when I saw that this version was more up to date I knew I had to buy it here. The only issue, when using a controller, it didn't want to read the inputs, but after I set it up through Steam controller support it worked flawlessly. Now, he's to hoping that some day somebody will join as I randomly host public games...
