Of course, Rising Storm 2 is great it's just I play on steam deck so ironsights don't cut it for medium to long range on a small screen lol.
Also, OHD is only going to get better!
The main dev is a youtube creator/streamer named bluedrake, I know the kind of kneejerk response that sentence likely created in your head (I mean, same lol) but he isn't another milquetoast fps streamer, listen to the way the dude talks about his project, I genuinely believe someone would have to encase that guy in stone to stop him from making the kind of game you and I want and blasting it out to the world for anyone to get their hands on and start building cool shit we can all play.

I mean he has been on an AI kick (to be fair he got sick of the state of battlefield-like industry and decided to go back to school to get a masters in data science so he could use the tools for good, a grift this ain't), but he honestly seems genuinely interested in practical tools to empower small independent game developers, with tutorial videos to boot, maybe I will eat my words but I think his interest is totally genuine in spreading awareness about cool tools anyone can use to mod and make games like his.
idk like yeah he is hyping ai to help make models to import into blender, so shrugs I'm cool with it.
This video is definitely worth a watch, he is very thoughtful
