It is filled with bots that look like those plastic green army men that would be spat at by teenagers pretending they care about the environment, all while they type away on their new iPhones made of precious metals made by children for a slave wage.

Ravenfield is currently in early access and is a game that does just that. Give me hundreds of bots, some stupid weapons, and a map the size of my behind following lockdown and all these cookies I’ve been eating.

We also had them back in 2000 with the Tony Hawk’s series of games. Instead, we’ve had these “levelutions” (stupid bloody name) that were so revolutionary to gameplay in 2011. Why? Because that is the definition of fun Huge battles, explosions everywhere, bodies flying across the screen, and wondering why you can small charred Wookie. 120 bots taking on 119 bots and me? Count me right in on that and I’ll call it one of the greatest games ever made. Nevertheless, I’ve lamented for long enough about Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (the good one) and how no one aims for that anymore. However, we’re not talking about The Culling Origins, mostly because I have another C-word for that game and its developer. Multiplayer has become so ingrained in modern gaming, it is almost unacceptable to ship a game without online functions to nickel-and-dime players.

Back then we didn’t have useless multiplayer shoveled into everything from Fallout, Metal Gear Solid, and the rumored The Sims 5. I love it when I do the “Back in my day!” jokes, because back in my day was just under twenty years ago.
