Players over 30 are having a great time in ARC Raiders and explain exactly why and what makes the game so good right now.

Who is it about? While teenagers and students are known to have a lot of time for video games, with a 40-hour work week, children, and taking care of relatives, there is little time left for the best hobby in the world. Players pay close attention to which titles they invest their time into and which games they tend to skip.

The PvPvE shooter ARC Raiders is particularly popular among players over 30, as they explain in a recent post.

Perfect for those with limited time

What makes ARC Raiders so good? Players over 30 are recently praising in a post on Reddit how well the game fits with their life situation. They explain that the single-player mode is particularly populated by other players in the evenings, who do not prioritize PvP.

Even though there is always a chance of encountering another player who is not friendly, the evening hours are particularly PvE-heavy, and you will meet many friendly players who do not force PvP.

The fact that the developers did not go with Free2Play is also a reason for the success among the target audience. The developers recently revealed that this decision also had a significant impact on the respect for the players’ time investment.

What do players say? Under the post, which praises ARC Raiders for its good playability for over-30 players, many other users leave their comments. They write on Reddit:

  • This_Dependent_7084: “That’s 100% me. Solo rounds during the week from 8 to 11 PM feel so relaxed in comparison, especially with crossplay turned off.”
  • maninahelmet: “I’m 55 years old and love the game. I’ve been here since day one and still find solos as relaxing as ever. I play on PC with crossplay enabled.”
  • WebSlinger15: “Exactly. I just want to gather and build a little.”
  • dhanadh: “Someone helped me find mushrooms tonight. Thanks, my mushroom angel.”
  • TheHolyOcelot: “A guy shot at me and I was like: ‘What the hell, man?’ He replied: ‘Damn, you sound like you just got off work. Sorry, man, let’s just go our separate ways.'”

It really seems that many like-minded people want to relax after work in ARC Raiders without spoiling the fun for others.
