Wow, I've never played the Payday games, I thought it was just a wave shooter.

But this looks really cool!

My limited experience is that's often how it ends up. There's some fun stealth elements, but at least for an average skilled newcomer, there was so much randomness to NPCs that without overly metagaming, probability of shootout on most levels approached 1.

Additionally there were definitely wave shooter game modes (defend your safehouse), but they always felt more like a mini-game than a part of the intended core experience

Yeah, hopefully there are more varied ways to play.

It's going to be on Game Pass day one anyways so I'll definitely check it out.
