Exoprimal. It’s the exact dumb fun I want it to be with its own little sense of humor that actually works somewhat. If you have Gamepass it is a no-brainer. I’m not sure about $60 or $70 or whatever it’s retailing at yet but this will undoubtedly be a game with a huge surge in users when they start selling it for $30 and under. The PvPvE format works very well for it, it gives you a real sense of urgency and has you moving very quickly. Gives the fights and deaths real stakes that aren’t just resetting progression or something.
It has no right to be as fun as it is. Almost good as bonus existence

I’ve been enjoying this a lot too. Finished the story. Was just a wacky good time.
I love the pacing of the missions. They’ve really thought it through, which is not something I see with such flagrant GAAS games. The random mission changes and story elements popping in really keeps the game fresh. Yesterday in the middle of a really heated match against another team, we suddenly got dropped into an arena and all of us had to work together to take down a neo T-Rex. That was so cool and I was not expecting it at all. if that’s the kind of experience I can regularly expect from this game, then they will have my attention at least for a few months.
They are really in your face about buying things, but I am unlocking things at a steady clip so credit where credit is due. You definitely don’t need to buy your way into the game.
