I want to preface this review with a critique I have of the game

- Trained Voice data of real people to produce a range of serviceable to straight up questionable AI voice acting

ARC Drones are predators of the abandoned surface of the Earth. You are a Raider, a scavenger for an underground refuge called Speranza.

As a Raider you are sent topside to scavenge for scrap, plants, seeds, tools, metal, etc. All of which are found in containers in the abandoned residences and labs of The Rust Belt.

Along the way you will encounter PvP fights and Drones that could potientally ruin your run if your not careful. All of which are potent sources of loot, don't shy away to destroy a drone or get the jump on an unsuspecting squad. Or maybe... Team up with other Raiders to take down larger and more dangerous drones.

ARC Raiders is a very fun experience from my point of view.

- The sound design within the world is phenomenal, gunshots out in the distance, the muffled sounds of footprints above you signaling that there are other raiders above you, the unique sound queues of each ARC Drone, etc. (Theres too many things to list here.)

- Hit feedback is grounded in-world elements that amp up immersion. No hitmarkers here.

- The soundtrack is a banger

- Every cosmetic and weapon feels grounded in this scrap-work aesthetic.

isaac is a very deep dungeon crawler that will ruin your life if you play more than 1-4 hours of it
