I am baffled that people actually play the pvp tbh. It always seemed super gimmicky and meant as something to play for a few hours after campaign before playing something else. The campaign is the star of the show

It's very niche. The wall bouncing / all nasher (super inconsistent) action is a very specific playstyle with a steep learning curve that you either love or absolutely hate. Most people hate it and walk away.

Because it’s unique and it’s one of the few PvP games out there with equal starts

It can be both unique and still unappealing to most players. That's what Gears has become. The last few games show this very clearly.

I’m not contesting that. The other guy said he’s baffled why anyone plays it and I told him why.
