The Finals

Used to be the very best online competitive shooter of the 202Xs. Sadly Embark fked up with their balancing policy AND forced competitiveness. This game used to prompt players to be creative with a weapon+kit-based approach. Find fun in your individual flavor of playstyle+reward. It transformed into "play meta or loose" sweatfest hell with artificial (!!) esports enforcement. They added rewards and ranks to all previously casual modes (ranked existed!!). 90% sweat Playerbase with no chill left.

More like the first time I played this was also The Final(s) time.
