What are you playing this week? (2024.01.12) - eviltoast

For me it’s still a lot of The Finals. As someone that favors single-player games, I wouldn’t have put F2P Multiplayer FPS on my 2024 Bingo card, but alas here we are. Other than that I’m playing though Spider-Man 2 and Sea of Stars slowly.

What are you all playing this week?

    I’ve been playing nothing but The Finals since it dropped. Dunno if I should be embarrassed to admit this but I’ve already completed the battle pass. I solo queue (anyone wanna party up???) and just play casual quick play and it’s still an absolute blast. Ranked sounds too sweaty for me.

      That’s dope! I do the same thing. Solo and quick cash. I bought $20 worth of multibucks (who am I buying F2P cash…my first time ever) because I was having so much fun I wanted to vote with my wallet. I picked up that one skin pack that was essentially free since it gave you back an equivalent amount of currency.

      I’m level 40 in the BP. If I finish it then I’ll buy it with the cash I have since it gives you an equivalent amount of multibucks back, so again, essentially free, or rather a reuse of the $20 I already paid. I play at odd times whenever I can fit in a 15-20 match, so that’s why I stick to solos. If I play longer it’s usually coming out of my sleep budget.

      If you ever played Bad Company I suggest watching the Digital Foundry video on The Finals that just came out. I think I posted it here. They compare the destruction between Bad Company and the Finals and talk about the tech.

        Same here, never spent money on f2p games before, but after playing the beta, this game really clicked with me and I wanted to show Embark my support.
