I wish I could support this game anymore. I played during Payday 1's beta, I played during the first Wolf Pack, I played during the Payday 2 Beta, owned pretty much every DLC.

Double-dipping, as Overkill has done, has removed any urge for me to continue the series or acquire/experience any other possible Overkill games. When your game is supported almost entirely on constant, paid DLCs, the audacity to include new microtransactions a la TF2 and CS:GO (the crate/keys system) shows a complete disregard for the playerbase.

In the fallout after the announcement of microtransactions, Overkill did not treat the community either with respect or with professionalism. Their words, essentially, were that microtransactions - and dozens of cheaply made paid DLC - were necessary for the game, even though datamined information showing Payday 2's revenue proved otherwise.

With regards to gameplay, the game used to be quite fun, though power-creep due to DLC has caused many of the defaut loadouts and experiences to be suboptimal.

The music is nice. Thanks, Simon.



RIP Payday 2.
