Points of Interest:
- Free
- Steam Workshop Support
(aside from the main campaign, there's a bunch of user made campaigns we could play through)
- Somewhat team-play oriented
- The game is kind of dead since the game's been out for like 4-5 years and there's no real competitive aspect (pvp exists)
- There's only really campaign mode, so it'll be dead in our community once we've exhausted the content
- AIs suck (if you can't fill a team of 4 or 8), but you probably don't necessarily need them

Points of Interest:
- Free
- Competitive
- Mechanically easy
- Heavily team-play oriented (hunter side)
- Steep learning curve to actually hunt as the hunters or evolve as the monster
(This is NOT a shooter game at it's core, though many confuse it as such and are left unsatisfied when they realize they aren't playing a COD rip-off)
- AI is ok, but doesn't present a challenge when one truly understands the game.
- Not enjoyable if players have too large of a skill difference
- The game is dead and no updates will come
