What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
After a good 118 hours of play, I can say that the absolute best part for me is the co-op PvE Campaign.
There is a very solid crafting system in the game which lets you build all but a select few (only one comes to mind) consumables, and definetly anything that is required to keep going.
There is a breadth of content accessible to all levels of skill, which I think is the key to what makes Baro so easy to play compared to other mechanically intensive multiplayer games.
It finds a good balance between difficulty and accessibility, whilst not giving the impression that too much is lost when missions fail.
After 400H this game still has new content for me, with its already long multichoice story where you can be the submariner that wants to help colonize this alien planet, or try and stop them, is a ton of fun and it can be solo player or multiplayer, just do me a favor?
But it offers endless hours of fun, room for creative problem solving, near infinite exploration, rewarding progression and combat, great opportunities for team play and emergent stories, an atmospheric voice chat, some minor but cool puzzles (totally optional, but worth the effort) and much more.
