Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor hits 1 million copies sold

Quoting: Purple Library GuyWell I'm sorry, but I'm not going to start playing Stellaris or Civ in first-person perspective.

Oh, I don't dispute the usefulness of a boardgame-perspective or that there aren't good games that use it. And I play some of these.

But I'm coming mostly from TTRPGs (Which some people do play in a more strategy-games way with miniatures, which of course leads straight to Baldurs Gate), which otherwise favours a more FPV perspective and got us things like Dungeon Master or Eye of the Beholder and Fallout 3.

But taking a perfectly good FPV game and make a top-down/isometric version of it feels like Doom: The Boardgame (Which, incidentally, is a decent game)

This is so wrong.

I won't ever understand people that prefer non first-person perspective computer games. It took us so long to get to the point where they were possible in a somewhat immersive way, and now they're doing stuff like imitating camera shortcomings with motion blur, camera grime, chromatic aberration, film grain, depth of field and lens flare, and produce things like Deep Rock Galactic 2D and Minecraft 2D.

Looks good, but.. is it intentionally "Stalker"? Even the Region is called "Exclusion Zone" too...
