The new year presents an opportunity to reflect on a brilliant game that might now be truly ‘dead’ but still has an entire corner of the Co-op market held hostage. Payday 2 will be remembered amongst greats of Steam and is still more than worth playing in 2024!

If i would get a pre built PC Payday 2 would be in my top 3 games to return too. Game is just phenomenal and the community is great and helpful.

Payday 2: crimewave edition is like an ancient vase stuck in amber and its great and you should experience it.

PD3 is tense and I need to plan to play well, but with PD2, I don't even need to think. these two games for me, draw me in drastically different ways. They both fill their own niches, which I cant even compare. They're both too different from each other.

I think Payday 2 is a beautiful game. The only problem with it is its console ports. I think that's why i hope Payday 3 stays alive for us console enjoyers. Also, nice work on the very intentional ARG leaking of this video.

Personally I remember Payday 2 more fondly in its earlier years where it was slower, heavier and more tactical like PD:TH. I played that version constantly and started taking breaks more often and for longer as it slowly became more and more arcady, but recently coming back to it with a new PC, I can say I really enjoy the bullet-hell style it’s matured into, even if I still find it less engaging than when it felt like a successor to PD:TH. I see a lot of potential in Payday 3, going back to that more strategic coop focused gameplay, I hope they manage to polish it into another titan for the series.

I feel called out with that Kickstarter example. I just got sick of whacking the drill only to have to repair it anyway, so I reckon I'm saving time just fixing it immediately.

If only Payday 2 didn't crash so often or simply disconnecting from games/connection issues... When it works, it's fun.

I recently got into payday 2 with my friend due to game pass on Xbox I’m so glad we got into it even though it’s so limited on console

[zuverslayer]

Payday 2 left huge shoes to fill, 3 would've been considered subpar even if it was in a better state at launch, its miriad of issues only made it more apparent that it cant stack up to its legacy that took 10 years to build.
I'm hoping that 3 will grow into a proper entry in the series before long, but with it being always online, the DLC pricing and planned DLCs, its clear that they greatly overestimated how well the game would be received, and i'm fearful that the support will only last for as long as they're obligated to by the Gold Edition season pass. Here's to 10 more years of Payday fellas, whatever shape they take!

I just got a pc after playing payday on console and I have fallen in love with this game again

[Zr_Lf]

I mainly got into Payday thanks to Hotline Miami and man. Looking at how the lore keeps changing is very interesting. I love it, and I was excited for Payday 3. I genuinely have nothing but hope for Payday. If I can wait for MK1, I can wait for Payday.

Here's to the day when PD3 achieves a level of awesomeness equal to its predecessor. I have faith that day will come.

Me and a friend of mine decided to boot the game after a half a year of not playing it, and god it’s still as good as I remember.

10:30 Love me some RussianBadger appreciation.

I don't want payday 3 to be payday 2. I just want the kind of evolution that payday 2 has gone through so that payday 3 can breath with a similar level of life

[drenin]

The main issue is that payday 2 had a lot of time to mold itself into being good, more than half of what you said was added later on. The concern is payday 3 went for a cold restart so its on the same grounds as payday 2 started as. But that was a straight dumb move, which just makes payday 2 look 100 times better. While any dumb decisions they make will just look worse cause people will look at now payday 2 and go "payday 2 is straight doing this better".

[Maykicz]

Ah the good old times when I first started playing Payday 2 back in 2015, for example paying for skills, no story mod and so on. Now the game won't even start up, it always crashes without any reason

[xxODD-JOBxx]

Payday 2 just does its perfect arcade feel to it. The soundtrack is huge for me as well as the general feel and mechanics of this game. Not too serious. Just plain fun.

[Dwayne_LaFontant]

I love payday2, even though I’m playing it on console. But a part of me wishes payday3 could be the sequel we all wanted.
