Escape from Tarkov. I got out of the cycle, the real escape

[–] Vlyn@lemmy.zip 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I got out of the cycle when I finally realized how many cheaters there are. Worthless to play an extraction shooter under those circumstances. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5LfGcDB7Ek

The problem is that there is no alternative. Every other game fails to give me the dopamine rush that tarkov can. So I probably won’t escape anytime soon, even if it means spending thousands more hours dying to blatant cheaters.

I too still crave a game that gives the same rush Tarkov used to. But cheaters, poor servers, bad match times and just plain annoying design decisions aren't worth hoping on every wipe. I actually had a good time with single player for a while, and I might try some more when it updates to the next major patch
