Okay, so I mentioned in another post a short while back that while I really, really like the idea of a heist game, I didn't think I could play Payday 2 because I was uncomfortable with the idea of playing a criminal in a game where you have to mow down waves of police officers. It was a line I couldn't cross.
Um, well...I crossed that line.
I couldn't resist. Cooperative shooters that involve teamwork are my favorite type, next to rpgs. I heard so many good things about Payday 2 in that regard. So I gave in and tried it.
Holy shit, it's fun. It gets very, very intense. And teamwork is crucial. It's pretty much the computer game version of the movie Heat. Also has some rpg elements with levels and perks, etc.
I feel guilty as hell playing it. Shooting cops trying to rescue civillians I'm holding hostage makes me feel like a shitty person. Seriously.
But goddamn if it isn't a good time.
Needs more heists. It does have a scant few where you're also fighting other criminals, I feel not as bad about those, wish there were more. Or maybe a way to play on the side of law enforcement, but I suppose that would call for a very different type of game.
Damn it, I'm a bad person for enjoying this.
But the customizable masks...they're just...so cool...
Anyway, I'm metalwhisper on steam also. If anyone's ever good for a game, and needs another player in their crew, feel free to hit me up.
Just know I'll feel guilty.
Want to get GTA V as well, but am also wanting to hold out for a PC version. Not sure if I'll be able to resist that either. I'm weak. So very, very weak.
