Aaa looks amazing so far
Excited for what comes next!

Very babyyy

Its a fun game but I wish there was more. I wish I could wonder just as far back out into the wastes away from the chokepoints players gravitate toward for mcguffins and gadgets and pvp. I find myself yearning to see what its like off over on the horizon away from the frenetic topside of Speranza

Its hard for me to get too invested in arc as there's no moment the pace lets off. You just get booted back into the menu, review new checklists, then thrown back in. Always a clusterfuck, a "teeming" contrary to yawning environments otherwise haunting, "something where there should be nothing"

I also got into this after picking up stalker 2 again so I invariably contrast arc w/ stalker. These 2 games together demonstrate tonal interplay of what Mark Fisher delineates in the weird & eerie. A unworldly presence vs nothing where there should be something (an eerie cry). Arc is more "teeming"

Actually felt the eerieness a bit more again earlier tonight when a free for all early in the raid left my squad to explore virtually alone waiting for an encounter that never happens for 40 mins. Got to stop and study the environments as its the location design which does the heavy lifting of story

I dont regret getting it as it really shines running around with friends but that takes you out of the world and atmosphere immediately.

The strongest I felt positively about it was in that right-off single player tutorial sequence where the tension and eerieness was so palpable.. then never again
