They seemed more cutthroat and high-stakes than I was looking for in a game. I didn\u2019t want to lose my entire loadout if I died. I didn\u2019t want to get blasted to bits by other players, as I\u2019d heard happened all the time in these dog-eat-dog worlds.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">But when our review of ARC Raiders came out, it made it sound more approachable than any extraction shooter that came before it. \u201cARC Raiders raises the bar for extraction shooters pretty much across the board,\u201d critic Travis Northup wrote, \u201cwith an incredibly gripping progression grind, tense fights against NPCs and other players that make for memorable matches, and loot that feels completely worth all the work and stress it takes to obtain it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">I also saw that it ran well on Steam Deck, my main gaming platform. So I picked it up and gave it a try. Turns out, ARC Raiders was just the game I needed to show me what all the fuss is about with extraction shooters. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">ARC Raiders is a relatively approachable game that eases you into its various systems. The basic idea is that you go topside into a level, run around gathering up loot, fight (or avoid) PvE enemies, and occasionally get into gun battles with other players. Then you make your way to an extraction site and try to get out with both your life and your loot.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The gameplay loop has drama and tension built into it, because the more good loot you find, the more you want to make it out safely. With my inventory full at the end of a run, I&#8217;m antsy in the best way as I call for the extraction elevator and it sounds an alarm, alerting others in the area of my location, ratcheting up the tension.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">With all that loot you find, you can craft all sorts of items, from guns to bandages, so nothing really goes to waste. You\u2019re always trying to find specific items, which let you unlock or upgrade various crafting benches. You can even upgrade Scrappy, a rooster who gathers materials for you while you\u2019re playing rounds.<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/section>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Even if you do wipe \u2013 which is bound to happen from time to time \u2013 not all is lost, because you have various quests that give you other goals to achieve on any given run. And if you find yourself ready to go topside but you don&#8217;t have any good gear, you can choose a free loadout that gives you the basics. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Eventually, I let go of my anxiety about losing gear and began to achieve a zen state about the whole enterprise. Even when I lose a gun I worked hard to attain, it\u2019s really not that big of a deal. The whole point of accruing the weapons is to use them when you go topside. They don\u2019t do any good sitting in your inventory. So gear up, raider. And give this game a try if you\u2019re at all curious.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Now if only Bungie would make Marathon work on Steam Deck&#8230;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Chris Reed is a commerce editor and deals expert for IGN.
