cool

The best Co-op game I've ever played.

- Nobody is toxic, and if they are, it's only on low difficulties; high level players are super cool and helpful
- Impossible for just one player to hard carry while using everyone else as support or fodder. Everyone is important, every class has a role
- Just a metric assload of fun
- Characters are lovable and fun
- Very satisfying
- Lots of mechanical depth
- Cool rats
- Optional microtransactions. The vast majority of cosmetics can be obtained through gameplay. The rest can all be bought for a total of like $80 (Although the skill based cosmetics are a fun flex anyway)
- Strong and well thought out melee combat
- fun and satisfying to strategize and min/max builds

The only real weakness I would say is that most dlc weapons are way stronger than base game weapons, but you'll probably end up getting the dlc anyway, especially now that everything is way cheaper than it used to be. Also, P2P can sometimes suck if someone has sh*ternet, but that's usually only like 1 in 20 people (plus you can just leave a game at any time without consequence, so it doesn't ever make a difference)

Literally Tekkit But 10x more fun and just as accessible

Janky but super fun

Battle pass progression is awful, but if you don't care about cosmetics, the game is fantastic in every other way.

Edit: Cosmetic system is still insultingly bad, and there's not many gamemodes and no forge, but the gameplay is still probably the best of any Halo game, this coming from a lifelong fan.

Edit 2 (12/31/21): Game is getting better. more gamemodes and good battle pass progression, but no bug fixes yet.

Edit 3 (1/2/22): Multiplayer just doesn't work anymore, it's a common bug, and they haven't released a single bug fix for the 3 months the game has been out, including the 1 month the game has been out of beta. Don't get invested in games that disappoint you.
campaign kicks ass tho and works, so at least there's that.

Edit 3.5: nvm I guess it's just certain gamemodes that don't work anymore? Cool I guess. Starting to get really sick of monetization issues tho.

Bloons is for sure the best tower defense series, and this is the best installment yet. While there are an overwhelming amount of towers and upgrades, the game can be played in so many different ways that it hardly matters if you know all there is to know.
The main concern for these types of games is microtransactions, but I was shocked when I found out that literally everything can be acquired without paying real money, including cosmetics.

muck

Still manage to get 1-shot

Every once in a while, I get hooked on a game and play it exclusively. The last time this happened was with Terraria, and I'm beginning to find that Valheim has the same addicting qualities that caused me to sink much of my time into certain games.

With features reminiscent of Runescape, Terraria, Ark: Survival Evolved, and Zelda BOTW, this game is hard to put down once you start.

Best game for zombies in terms of modded content. If you don't like something about it, chances are someone has a workshop mod to change it. So many good fan made maps as well.
I don't really like any other part of the game, I just play zombies. If that's you, and you're willing to pay $30 when it's on sale, then I'd definitely recommend it.
