I hate battle royale games. Every time I play them i get anxious and nervous, I cant take it anymore
I have played Apex Legends since it came out and I have about 900h between both steam and origin (mostly played during covid).
Since I stopped playing this rage games I feel much better
Tell me what you think of battle royale games in the comments if you want
I played Tarkov for a solid 3 or 4 months. The game itself is beautiful and raw. It’s got the best weapon modification system I’ve ever seen. The sounds are top tier, especially when you consider the realistic differences the headsets to muffle or amplify sounds.
The downfall is the other players. The net code sucks so bad and the cheaters are rampant. The game suffers a lot for this. The reason most battle royals have high TTK is because losing instantly to someone is a terrible feeling, so to prevent this you have a ton of health and shields to at least give you a fighting chance.
Tarkov doesn’t give a shit about that. You can spend 15 mins putting your kit together and loading into a raid just to be one tapped by a rat with a mosin shooting SNB. All that work into putting your kit together is wasted and now you’ve just donated your kit to wherever loots your body.
The SPTarkov mod is the greatest thing to ever happen to Tarkov because it got rid of the worst part of it: the other players.
If you enjoyed apex except for the high stakes format, check out titanfall 2. There’s a community made client called northstar which fixes EAstrash servers and offers mods/silly game modes and customization
the singleplayer in that game is amazing, too. One of the best FPS singleplayers to date.
I have Titanfall 2 and i’ve finished the campaign. Very good game but unfortunately idk how to make the northstar client work on Linux qwq
Check out the new launchers they got, they claim to support Linux:

I can’t stand competitive multiplayer. But I’m not very good at paying games. It seems to take me more than twice as long as people say it should to finish most games (I do tend to try and do everything I can on my first play through).
That said I tried playing Elden Ring multiplayer, helping people beat bosses, and that was a surprisingly wholesome experience.
I dont like battle royales
Most of the time is spent just trying to get equipment or running from point A to point B, and by the time you’ve spent 15-20 minutes just running, one encounter means you lose
I play CS:GO. I like it because its more constant decision making, and the shorter rounds means less time investment into a single round. But it has gotten so bad with cheaters. I have played CS for over 15 years and yet I constantly run into brand new accounts or accounts that were clearly boosted (500+ commends in each category), bought, and used by cheaters who said that “it was cheaper than rust…” The matchmaking is so atrocious, I have people at the bottom of the ranks on my team and top of the ranks on theirs; the averages arent even close. I’m not playing CS:GO anymore and if CS2 doesnt fix the cheating problem, I’m not going back.

Honestly the only way to play them is to drop into “hot zones” so you have constant action. However surviving those requires lots of skill (and luck) which especially when starting out is a really unpleasant experience.
Nah I don’t play anything anymore that forces me to do PvP and that includes all Battle Royale games. I rather play shooters where I either can play alone or, even better, my friends and me against zombies, monsters or whatever have you. Those are the greatest shooters!
