This is a good showcase of a less known game that is worth trying for this - it's one of very few games that do robot opponents in a more ambitious way than just a standard FPS mook with a simple health bar and a reskin.
The opponents have separate components that have their own health, sometimes also own armor, and their function, which the machine they are on loses once they get destroyed.
Some are also explosive, which can be very good for destroying the other parts of this and even nearby machines... or not so great if you are standing closely.
Blasting at general structural pieces can work, certainly with stuff like machineguns and RPGs, but machines can take a lot of random fire like this, and with weaker weapons and better armored opponents it's completely impractical... unless you are willing to aim for gaps in armor or destroyed the armor of some important component with an IED, grenade or something. On top of that come weapons with various ammo types that can interact differently with armor, obviously AP rounds having a lot of value there.
Other than that, it has quite Far Cry style open world gameplay, set in 80's Sweden, with a bit of horror undertone.
Definitely worth trying if you want to see FPS combat done fairly differently from the average FPS.
Kinda... 4 years ago. They have done a lot updates and DLCs since then, with whole new robot classes, weapon packs, recently even added base building and motorbikes.Wasn't one of those games that promised a lot and delivered little?
So, kind of what happened to No Man's Sky ? I did check the Steam page and I am surprised. I remember this was based on Tales from the Loop.Kinda... 4 years ago.

Yup, that seems like a similar story. Game releases in rather barebones state content wise, but later, through some combination of updates, DLC or even mods that point gets obsoleted.So, kind of what happened to No Man's Sky ?

Also it gets confused with Tales from the Loop, but the creator of that absolutely denies it.
Swedish artist Simon Stålenhag is not happy with Generation Zero
Tales from the Loop creator is tired of the confusion revolving around similarities to his workwww.pcgamer.com
I don't understand why do companies bend the knee to woke mobs when minorities don't contribute nearly enough money to make profit of versus isolating true fans.
I don't think it is that simple.Culture influences how people think, and therefore influences politics. The left knows this, which is why they have infiltrated the entertainment industry with the intent of pushing their values into entertainment and influencing culture and disseminating their ideas amongst the populace. Corporate cancer begins in the HR department. The HR department gets a couple of people who are lefty, and then they hire their friends who think like them (rather than finding the best candidate). During the hiring process, the interviewers ask political questions, and then filter out people who don't align with their beliefs. Employees who don't conform either keep their mouth shut or get fired. Eventually the lefties control the company, and to them it's not money which is the most important: it's pushing their message. Even if their company somehow fails (which is pretty difficult once a company gets big enough), they will find employment in other leftist companies.
