Welcome to the 156th instalment of our first impression video series. Today, we are playing the PC/Steam game, PAYDAY: The Hesit for the first time. You can check out the video directly on YouTube or in the embed below:

This is yet another instance of me checking out a game that I had heard of, but knew little about. I knew it was going to be a first person shooter where you break into banks and, well, basically be the bad guys, but that’s about it.

Ultimately, this turned out to be a learning experience for me. While playing, this game had a rather arcade multiplayer feel to it. I didn’t mention it in the video, but to a certain extent, it did feel a bit like the first Timesplitters game where you take on a series of objectives to see if you can beat the level and move on.

Otherwise, it had a very standard feel for a PC shooter for the most part. So, I’ll be interested in seeing how this game progresses.

For those who have played this game before, what did you think? Was this a lot of fun to play and a great time waster or was this game a more forgettable game for you?

For those who haven’t played this game, but rather, other games in the series, what did you think of when you saw footage of this game? Did this have a very familiar style of gameplay to you? Is this something you’ve been meaning to try, but never quite got around to or would you rather stick to other Payday games?

Also, for those who have never played any of these games before, what did you think of what you saw here? Does this look like an interesting little shooter to play or is this not really your style of game? Let us know in the comments below!
