Overview
Description

Counter-Strike 2 is the free-to-play successor to CS:GO, a tactical 5v5 shooter defined by precise gunplay, economy management, and deep competitive play built on the new Source 2 engine.

Freedom: First Resistance is a third-person action-adventure game set in a dystopian future where Earth has fallen to the invading alien Catteni race. Players step into the shoes of Angel Sanchez, a determined human resistance leader tasked with organizing and leading a team of rebels to overthrow the oppressive extraterrestrial overlords. The gameplay blends stealth-based infiltration, engaging puzzle-solving, and strategic squad management. To successfully overcome heavily guarded challenges and ultimately liberate humanity, players must make tactical use of each team member's unique abilities.

Counter-Strike 2 has been my go-to lately. Pure skill-based gunplay. One gripe: steep learning curve. Would recommend.
