Why I can’t Escape from Tarkov
Escape from Tarkov will wipe probably this week. And that means it’s the best time to get into what is probably the peak of the hardcore survival shooter genre. Let me try and sell you on how losing is fun, pain is real and the unexpected warmth of human interaction in a video game.
If you’re like me, you probably thought at first that Escape from Tarkov is just the latest attempt to cash in on the fading glory of the DayZ mod. And we can definitely see how this game originates from that ArmA 2 mod DNA string. And while titles like Rust focus more on the base building and sandbox nature of that genre. We also have the battle royal titles like Call of Duty Warzone, PUBG and Fornite going through their evolution. Escape from Tarkov rolls all of this back, embracing the military-sim roots of the survival shooter genre. And in its current iteration, it is probably the best version of this type of game.
