This is my 5th most played game on Steam, mostly because I've played through the campaign solo once, then replayed it with a friend, then re-replayed with another friend. Plus, after the campaign is over, there are daily missions you can complete that change every day, so it's not like you run out of things to do in-game.
Slots #4-7 in my most-played games list are all Tom Clancy games, actually. As a former military guy, I actually love Tom Clancy games. It's fun to compare them to reality. Yeah, there are a lot of fantasy future-tech situations in those games, but sometimes a real-world military scenario plays out, and it's fun to compare/contrast with how the military actually operates.
This particular screenshot was snapped while I was fighting a Behemoth tank. I was getting my butt kicked with little progress, so I decided it would be easier to just nuke it from the air with an Overseer helicopter with Mk. II guided missiles.
Little did I know, the Behemoth also has missiles and locked onto me as soon as I came within range. This is me bailing out before my helicopter was blown to bits. I was too close to dodge the guided missiles in time.
Below is a shot of my usual team: two of my close friends (left and right) and me (center). Ignore the floating backpack in the foreground. ๐ It glitched and stayed in place when we entered the bivouac.
My buddies modeled their characters' appearance after themselves, but I like to play as women if given the opportunity. I was raised by a strong, independent-type woman (and also married one!), so I always lean toward women protagonists in my games. Action hero men are boring and overplayed, in my opinion. ๐
They're a bit different than the military ones, but the first three Splinter Cell games are fantastic if you enjoy stealth. Chaos Theory in particular is absolute cinema, one of the best stealth games of all time.
