While I agree that it’s a bit disingenuous to call it’s a PvE game I do think that the feel of it is on the PvE side a lot of the times(but considerably less than half of the time). Especially since the ARC robots are so well done. And I don’t encounter other players in a meaningful way every game.

However, I don’t agree at all that it’s a horrible game. I think that it’s a fantastic game! It’s just released and it has some issues. Apart from a couple of small issues I think it’s a game that does the genre extraction shooting great, runs great, and is the first game in quite a while that feels done and polished and not rushed in any way.

Regarding the shot-on-sight and camping I think it’s a double edged sword. Of course it doesn’t feel good to die, especially by camping. But it would not feel good to extract if there was no risk/stress before doing so.
