Tom Clancy's 'The Division 2' is 95% off ... $3.00.

That's a crazy good price for a fun game. It's full of things gun enthusiasts would like... real gear brands like 5.11 Tactical... huge assortment of guns and modifications.

I know nothing about the endgame or additional content... but I had enough fun playing solo just running around town and taking in the looter-shooter aspects of it

That would be great if it didn't require online play to function

Indeed.

Not feeling like getting another game that's filled with 14 y.o. trolls killing me endlessly.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Yeah, downside of most Ubisoft games needing always online.

Division 2 is a co-op game. There are PVP areas, but it's a very small and pretty optional part of the map. You can feasibly play solo the entire way, but I've "called for help" during a hard fight a few times, and usually get some pretty quick assistance from other nearby players that can hop into my session.

I just love the post-apocalyptic world, running around gathering resources, ammo, comparing gear/guns and modifying stuff. Scratches some of my itches.

I liked the first one, but the requirement wasn't there. It was optional.

I refuse to give Sony money for the privilege of playing online.

I'm eagerly awaiting KSP 2 and the new flight simulator.

Also been playing Breakpoint and it is tempting to buy the division 2 if it's still on sale.

The best games out are Call of Duty and Battlefield, hands down!

Not even close

Eh. Depends what you like.

I loved the original MW. Used to play all the time with mods and custom maps. Once they took that away I stopped buying their games.

Doom Eternal is a hell of a lot of fun.

Looking at maybe picking up Half-Life: Alyx... just unsure how good it is on HTC Vive compared to the rest of the headsets...

... anyone wanna buy my HTC Vive so I can put money toward an Index...

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Got HL: Alyx.

It's a monumental step for VR. Just incredible.

And tense as hell. So dark, scary... running empty and having to eject a mag, reach for another, load it, release the slide... all while a ****ing headcrab is screeching around you and jumping at your face.

Not the same experience at all, but you're getting me pretty pumped for the arrival of my Sinden Lightgun! Any month now...
