I’m looking for a good online (pc) shooter with the following: (1) big enough player base to make it easy to jump into a game fast, (2) no penalty for leaving a game early, and (3) no looting. (I’m a new dad so ease of starting/stopping play is essential)

I love AFPSs like Quake Champions and Diabotical, but it can be hard to find matches with their tiny communities. I’ve been playing casual mode in CSGO which is okayyyy but you can tell the game wasn’t designed for that.

Are there any other games I should try?

Custom retake servers on CSGO if you want to play CS without committing to a full comp match. Maybe a Battlefield game?

To put things in perspective, the original Black Mesa mod that went up to Lambda Core came out in 2012, and was added to Steam as an official game in 2015.

Xen was added in Dec 2019.

They put a fuckton of work into it.

The Monster Hunter demo finally got me to troubleshoot why my PS5 controller cannot connect to my switch properly (through 8bitdo).

After like an hour of loving around it seems like if you already had a pro controller synced at any point in the past it just like...doesn't work. For reasons unknown I had to wipe all past connections, restart the switch, and then sync the PS5. This was not a common troubleshooting answer because I suppose people who are buying 8bitdos don't have switch pro controllers in the first place so it never comes up.
