IT'S HAPPENING

Better not hit my boat

It's being nominated for GOTY and it's not even a finished game. I'll just leave that thought there.

Quantity =/= Quality

PlanetSide 2 is a very interesting F2P MMOFPS. If there was a "mixed" review option, this is where I would use it. But now looking back towards its first year when it launched (which you can find the player counts here[steamcharts.com]) compared to what it is now, I simply can't recommend this game anymore due to not having that much of a stable playerbase anymore.

As usual with (somewhat) older games, the more skilled players only tend to play the game now with the acception of newer players trying it out. I've known numerous players who want to get into the game yet struggle when the veteran players seems to dominate in every way possible. Take Quake Live for example, the small community there tends to just be veterans of the game which makes it very hard for people to get into the game.

But not everyone is like that, though. I have myself for that example as I started playing PS2 halfway through its lifespan before quitting around BR55-65. Thus meaning it is very much possible to catch up to higher skilled players. This isn't including how oddly optimized this game is as it seems to bottleneck or straight up lag most of the time unless you have an extremely overkill computer.

TL;DR Low player base, sluggish optimization, and not a very easy game to get into (for most).

I think the fact that I got emotionally attached to the main character within 5-10 minutes tells me something.

Pros:
- Adorable as hell protagonist
- Great characters
- Really nice music
- Interesting puzzles
- Different endings for replayability

Cons:
- I cannot hug this small child ;n;

Overall this game is very well done and deserves so much more love. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a cute little RPG.
