God forbid a raider wants to have a chill time.

Embark should've implemented a PvE mode into Arc Raiders a long time ago

The writer expresses a strong desire for Arc Raiders developers to create a PvE-only mode for the game. They recall fond memories of cooperative play, highlighting memorable encounters with strangers that led to impressive strategy and coordination. The writer believes such experiences were a significant reason for their continued engagement with the game.

However, as the player base dwindled, the writer found themselves interacting more often with liars, assholes, or cheaters in PvP lobbies, making their time spent in the game less enjoyable. They suggest that a PvE mode would have kept them actively playing Arc Raiders and encouraged others to do the same. While they acknowledge the enjoyment PvP can bring at times, they argue that a PvE mode would provide a more consistent and positive gaming experience.

The writer laments the lack of proper anti-cheat measures in PvP and the uncertainty surrounding the development of a PvE mode, expressing frustration at the potential loss of an engaging aspect of Arc Raiders.
