For me, this game is the best looter shooter I've come across in ages. It's honestly so much fun to just throw on some music, do a mission or two and then look at your clock and realise you've just played through an entire night.

The amount of work still being put into this game also surprises me very much, as some games from Ubisoft with this kind of live service feature usually dies within 2 years or 3... This game is reaching it's SIXTH anniversary.

If you want a looter shooter with a good story or just something to turn your brain off to and spray and pray at enemies, I cannot recommend this game enough for you.

A game with an amazing style, mixed with the arcade Tony Hawk controls, a pretty cool story and a stellar soundtrack.
Had fun on both PC and it's amazing to play on Steam Deck.
My biggest problem is that I've felt like I've nothing else to do after the final story beat. But the game is definitely replayable.

Diablo 4 had a very rocky start, but where it's come from there and where it's going absolutely amazes me, We are around 2 weeks away from Vessel of Hatred and my excitement is impossible to measure. I love playing this game on the steam deck, on my laptop or my PC. It's always guaranteed that when I play for 20 or 30 mins, I end up playing for 4 hours doing nothing but trudging through nightmare dungeons with that lingering thought in the back of my head whispering "one more..."

Phenomenal game, it only gets MORE phenomenal with each update, fixing things that definitely needed fixing and adding new endgame dungeons and ways of acquiring loot so that the game doesn't get stale for Veterans.

My review will change to add Vessel of Hatred when it comes out, but for now, this game is a must to ARPG enjoyers.

This game is amazing, a coop that focuses on teamwork on a grander scale in order to conquer enemies. A game so amazing, that it banded it's players together in real life to stop Sony from shooting Arrowhead in the foot. If you still have a negative review about the PSN, make sure to change it back. Arrowhead is more than deserving of Game of the year, Sony learned their lesson.

This game is great. The gameplay is better than Payday 2 when it first started, but there are two major gripes I have...
- Skills: I really don't know why I don't like it, but I know that Payday 2's skills can be a lot more diverse than Payday 3's, obviously something that can be fixed, as Payday 2's went through a few changes before becoming what it is now.
- No Offline Mode: Of the over 200 hours of Payday 2 I have, I can easily say that a good 190 of those hours were played in offline, I mainly heist solo, so to have no ability of pausing in the middle of a heist and ping issues (which my terrible internet would inevitably give me) really irritates me. I understand that Payday 2 had problems like hackers and dlc unlockers, but I can't properly enjoy myself with this sequel.

OTHER THAN THOSE TWO THINGS, this game is amazing, much better gameplay and I can easily say I didn't waste my money, I can't wait to see what's down the line for it, and I know damn well I'll be following it just the same as I did Payday 2.

I've murdered at least 30 people and I've only won like 4 championship belts. Good ♥♥♥♥

Hot, sweaty, hairy men crawling through dank, dark caves, battling hordes of gooey aliens and rival mining companies in order to obtain gold and other minerals... What more can you ask for?

There should be an achievement for buying from every hotdog stand in the game... but Rockstar continues to disappoint.

I was called "Infidel" a lot.

Can't think of a better timekiller. The addons are just a great addition to the game.
