Battle pass shit aside, I really like Apex Legends. Probably has some dark patterns but still I really like their gunfights.
i liked it for the same reasons but matchmaking is ass. i'm either playing against professionals or morons with no inbetween.
either that or the skill floor on that game is way too high for me to really enjoy it casually.
I kept getting just LASERED then I realized people playing with controllers get aimbot at medium or close range, and Iโm using a keyboard and mouse like a pleb.
i heard of that too, very unfair.
The hard part is the skill gap - it's not like the pros are a little better than you and you can maybe eke out win. They absolutely dominate you.
I describe them as gusts of wind because they blow in so fast and aggressively we're dead before we can react
If Apex could stop that experience from happening I'd honestly still play it
Once I played counter strike, all other shooter games died for me. I love the comparaison: "if valorant [or other FPS'] was a designer drug, counter strike would be uncut cocaine."
The movement and gunplay is really fun. I dip in and out every so often.
