Forever the best game for modding.

Considering the amount of fun I had with Payday 2's base game before they started doing weekly releases of DLC, I would say the base game as abso-bloody-lutely worth it, especially considering it has an insanely low price of around $5 in sales.

Unfortunately, there are a set of massive problems with the devs:
- First is the "microtransaction disaster": this was a promise about 3months after launch where Overkill bluntly said "THERE WILL NEVER BE MICROTRANSACTIONS". A few years later, and theres now a section of the Steam market dedicated to paid guns which are small upgrades of the originals.
This blunder from Overkill dropped their peak players per day from around 100,000 to a maximum of about 30,000. WITHIN A WEEK.

- Secondly is the lackluster quality of DLC as time goes by; it seems like Overkill are spending less and less time on each DLC, while releasing each one closer to the last release. Quantity over Quality seems to be a motto for Overkill at this point, and with each DLC costing around $5 (so about the cost of the main game on every sale ever) and taking about a year to go on sale, you would probably end up spending around $200 if you wanted to get the game with DLC with no sale.

Do yourself a favour: buy only the base game, and get it on sale. The rest is not worth it unless you want to play a certain heist with friends. And also, do not trust Overkill anymore to keep up with their promises; they could end up changing their mind a few months later or delay their promised "rewards" (Still waiting for that hype train reward Overkill!).

I hate and love this game in equal amounts.

Russians make the game better just like CS
MTX and Battlepasses are my main gripe with the current state of Dota, so not much bad in my eyes.
