ARC Raiders strikes a good balance for an extraction shooter. It's fun, the loot/grind is deep enough, it's punishing but somehow still accessible. Community seems to be great.
I have hundreds of hours in other extraction shooter games, this is by far the best to introduce yourself into the genre

UPDATE: After 14h game is getting ever better. More people should play this game.

It shares the same great game play loop, kill-loot-equip-repeat, from successful titles like Destiny and Borderlands.

So far I find it really enjoyable, and when my only hope is the game will continue to have content, it is a really good sign!

Is true that the 3rd party account linking was marked as required prior purchase, but you should not change account requirements after player creation.

Game plays well, the mechanics are solid. There is potential for a great BR game. I'd like to see a develpment roadmap for the early access.
I'm eager to see this game growing over the months.
