Ever since like Day Z every shooter has just been some spin off of the arena shooter or battle royale. Honestly it's all just a blur to me as the casual observer, you look down one gun sight in a game you've seen 'em all.

i don't get how battle royale is still going
i'm extremely into the concept and i still got burnt out on it in the arma mod

It's just this blob to me. I remember the arma mod and that was cool but since then? Yeesh

Lol. They put a Diablo demon in COD. Western culture everyone. People are handing over actual sums of money to pay for what would have amounted to a jokey mod back in the glory days of gaming.

I still remember when there was going to be a TF2 show on adult swim, and then Valve just forgor the deadline and pocketed the money from the venture bros. cosmetics.
