Extraction shooters are getting PVE left and right

I for one, love it.

Pvp isn’t necessary to be qualified an extraction game.

Balance however, is super important for PVE extraction games. Ever moreso I think than PVP as to little challenge leads to boredom

PvP extraction shooters are generally awful because the nature of the genre is an extraction point which ALWAYS gathers campers who ruin the fun. PvE is the natural fix for the problem and helps the game feel more forgiving for new players.

Nikita Buyanov recently posted Tarkov’s stats on twitter and PvE accounts for 60% of the playerbase. He’s notoriously a PvE hater, but who better than him would understand that it’s not that you’re taking away from PvP, it’s just a way to gain players and retain players that are tired of the PvP shenanigans.

PvE is almost always a net positive, if handled correctly.

Without new content, it will lead to boredom either way. I’d like to think more ways to play adds longevity but people usually lean heavily towards one or the other. Idk how many people are going to pick this up after this long. Lmk in six months if I’m wrong though.
