Did you play online much or just the campaign? I liked the horde mode a lot, was playing it a few weeks back again. Daily XP boosts now that there is limited support.
Gears 5 is my most played game ever with 67+ days playtime.
I personally just find the gears multiplayer is something special, but 67+ days it was time for me to enjoy other games
Especially as they removed rankings from the game, I enjoyed getting master rank each season.
& They replaced it with some silly leaderboard, I didn't play enough to be high enough placed for the weapon skins so it killed my motivation a bit.
I did also complete horde and and got most the escape inconceivable achievements and solo campaign inconceivable & iron man acheivements too.
I think I threw the towel in on seriously 5.2 though, I did unlock seriously 5.1 though.
I just CBA to level all the classes up to max level, as the pve modes are my least preferred modes
I played a game the other day, I noticed they made everything unlockable, I think I'm only missing two character skins anyway (as I always earned enough coins from playing to unlock everything free)
& The free seasons even give premium currency too & it's forever double exp now.
I think gears 5 perfected the store system with it's revamp.
Let the items be premium only for a week, then let them be unlocked for free with game currency a week later.
I ended up rambling on, I'm really sorry haha
