Is this an extraction shooter?

[Heraculas]

I've seen in other forums where people recommend/suggest this game as an extraction shooter type of game.

Nope, not really

its co-op PvE only and you dont extract loot exactly just minerals for the objective and gold to buy cosmetics and weapon upgrades

You just described an extraction shooter to a "T" ... drop, shoot, loot, extract, repeat.

Extraction shooter? Kind of games games you loot things on map and lose everything on dead? Not this game, you lose nothing on dead or lose.

As long as one player manages to escape.
If entire team goes down, then you do lose everything mined and get a laughable tiny amount of resources.

Except you don't KEEP the majority of the minerals you mine, those go to DRG.

Yes, it is an extraction shooter in all senses.

it's an extraction shooter minus the threat of pvp which is the core of all extraction shooter games, so... not really

PvP/PvE is a separate configuration that doesn't define or alter the genre. Extraction shooters can be both PvE and PvP.
DRG appears on all the "best extraction shooters" lists I could find.

It is a co-op-shooter whit a progresion system.
In an extraction shooter you. loose the progres of the character that die during the mission, not in DRG.

[The man, the myth, the leg]

not sure what the definition of extraction shooter is but from what i know its typically used to describe games where you scavenge for gear, weapons or armor you can later sell or fix
DRG isnt that. while you do get stuff in the mission, which you can sell, those are only basic materials you use to buy upgrades
its a lot closer to the more conventianal PVE shooters like Payday or warframe

it's a heavily modified left 4 dead clone. like payday, vermintide, killing floor, etc. 4 player co op horde shooter, drop in drop out multiplayer. the drop ship is the safe room.

Wrong.
Clearly it's a Mario clone - vertically challenged characters consume mushrooms and kill carnivorous plants and fauna. I'm just glad those lawyers haven't sued DRG yet 🤐
