This looks like it could be a good fit for us. https://store.steampowered.com/app/606140/Survived_By/
I played it a little yesterday. It's actually not quite as hard as the trailer makes it out to be, but it is tough. You pay to unlock things faster, or for cosmetics. Didn't see any evidence that there's any pvp at all.
Fair enough, but according to what I've read, the gameplay is heavily influenced by invasive microtransactions. Not saying we should pass on this game, but it is something we will need to account for. Has anyone tried the game yet? Does it let you form a party without having to pay money? EDIT: Was easy enough to download and try for myself. Game plays a lot like Realm of the Mad God (old school Gauntlet, but with a open world similar to Zelda). Game looks like it has potential, but multiplayer is currently not implemented. So basically this is something we can put on our radar and see how it pans out.
