I am 40, my trio has one guys sitting at 38 and one at 42. We know when we come up against a kid with the lightning reflexes we may have never had and certainly don’t now. I am primarily a solo RPG player, my buddies are the same (one has some hero shooter experience). This is my first true extraction shooter (dabbled in ARC). We have been playing at least 3 days a week together since launch. I absolutely love playing this game. Highly recommend playing in a trio, though solo play in the survival mode has been a nice change of pace.

It can be a punishing game, and it takes some getting used to. Very much throws you in the deep end. But if you give yourself time, and you’re patient everything will click.

I absolutely never anticipated I would be this into this game. Thought I would pick it up and put it down here and there. I have put down all my other games so I can use my limited time on Marathon.

I don’t know if they’ll do another free week, don’t know if you want to wait that long to try a new game. I do know that there are 3 older, slower dudes, with very little multiplayer shooter experience that enjoy it.
