The game is like a, well, imagine co-op with 84 other people. Yeah, that's pretty much it.

It's rather easy, but even if you reach the max level you might still have some trouble with, say, pirate caves. Nontheless, it's pretty great to just beat a boss with a dozen other people.

If you kill something, everyone near you gets experience. Pretty nice if you come across a new guy and want to help him; shoot everything he walks into.

Oh, and, while there IS permadeath, you actually get REWARDED for DYING! Yes, you get rewarded for dying. How's that sound, eh? EH?

Oh, and sheep. The sheep say "baa."

For anyone wondering (which is no one), my name is PhailM.

(Note: You MIGHT want to play some bullet hell games before this. Trust me.)

You gotta appreciate the time they stuck into this. Nine years of development may not say anything, it being a Valve game, but the classes look like they spent nine years just on THEM, and they are still making up a backstory.

Also, the gameplay is pretty nice. It's like, teamwork is absolutely necessary, and if you change class, gameplay changes as well.

Oh, and the recent addition of a friken co-op gamemode! That mode is awesome.
