Just not My Thing these days
I'd always been curious to play this and apparently 10 years after it's release it's now rebranded as Siege X. Much of it looks comparable in terms of menus, progression unlockables to that of CS2. However, I've seen videos of it played and heard people rave about it so know how different it is.

The game is a neat idea. I also like that you have 'class distinctions' with customizable options rather than just blocks of purchasable equipment. (combat roles are great) the trouble is boy this is a lot to learn all at once. After a few training missions I could tell that this was going to be pretty much impossible for me to amount to anything in a casual match, and i was right. Some really interesting map design in this game it seems, built around competitive, spacing, etc.
I can see how people get sucked into this but I'm not at a point where I'd put the time in to learn all the complexities of this. I'll stick to what I know the next time I need to scratch the itch! The vast bulk of online shooters aren't for me these days, but I did want to at least finally check it out since I had access to it through a streaming platform. (as someone who has played the old Rainbox Six games it's really amusing to see where this series has gone, it's just as hardcore but in a very different context)
