Best Paid PC Games
10 Rainbow Six Siege
Our rating is opened by one of best games of all time, which set a new quality bar for tactical first-person shooters. It is one of the best paid games, even despite the rather high entry threshold.
• You can play this special forces simulator solo, but it's not interesting. RSS is a team game with all the obligations that come with it, like mastering all the gameplay features so as not to be a burden on your team. You can play with both friends and random players.
• The very same idea of a shooter is very simple (in words). One team of 5 players must take a hostage or mine the premises, fortifying their positions with traps and barricades, and the second will have to storm all this disgrace. An interesting fact: almost all objects on the level are destructible, so if you wish, you can make a hole in the wall or floor and stuff the enemy with lead from there.
9. The Division 2
• The continuation of the story about the fight between good guys and bad guys in a world devastated by the "Green Poison" (a pandemic due to a super-strong strain of smallpox) was received very favorably by the gaming community.
• And no wonder, because the world with many wide and open spaces began to look much larger and freer than in the first part, and most importantly – worked out to the smallest detail. The arsenal of weapons available to players is very wide, and the battles have become more interesting and more difficult than in the first part, since the AI is now acting smarter, and whether you like it or not, you will have to pay attention to resource management and thinking through battle tactics.
• The Division 2 may not have been the breakthrough of last year, but so far it has held its own in the top XNUMX most popular pay-to-play games due to its novelty, solid and refreshed gameplay, and the difficulty that many players enjoy.
8. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds
• This online battle royale game has a Metacritic score of 86 out of 100. It was named Breakout Game by PC Gamer in 2017, and won the 35 2017th Golden Joystick Awards for Best PC Game of the Year and Best multiplayer game.
• At the disposal of the players (and there can be up to 100 people) a huge battlefield with bunkers, military bases and other objects, as well as a variety of weapons, armor and equipment. The last survivor of the battle wins.
• Do you dream of crushing the enemy in a UAZ, feeling the adrenaline from chasing a motorcycle or chasing on a motorboat? In PUBG, all this and more is at your service!
7 Half Life: Alyx
• The events in the new "Half" unfold five years before the history of Half-Life 2. The main character Alyx Vance, along with her father, is actively fighting the Alliance. However, the father is captured and Alix, armed with gravity gloves and a barrel, goes to his rescue.
• On the one hand, it's a pity that only owners of VR equipment can enjoy the new part of Half-Life. On the other hand, active experiments with virtual reality are the new realities of the rapidly developing gaming industry.
• It's funny that enthusiasts, with the help of console commands, still managed to launch the game without a VR helmet. True, in this form it is greatly curtailed and it will not work normally to play.
6. The Sims 4
• A virtual life simulator is still more interesting for many than real life, otherwise why is The Sims 4 still in the top of the best-selling computer games?
• Emotional and multi-tasking sims, a chic character editor, a beautiful and vibrant city, an improved building mode and a good economic balance – these are just the main, but not the only advantages of the fourth part of the game.
• There are a huge number of mods for The Sims 4 on the Internet (houses, clothes and furniture, cosmetics, etc.) that allow you to create houses with a unique design, equip locations and create scenery for video clips and creative screenshots.
• Basically, The Sims 4 is a blank slate on which players can write their own stories.
5. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
• One of the games in which the plot is so-so (for Russian users), but it's still interesting to play.
• Modern Warfare's strong points are its "gray morals", a lot of content, and a great co-op mode for 4 players, each of which has its own character with unique mechanics, as well as complex and interesting group tasks (although there are not many of them).
4. Grand Theft Auto V
One of most popular games 2004-2020 was released in 2013, but still holds positions in the list of the best gaming projects.
• Thanks for this is not only the developers who release huge DLC, but also a dedicated fan community that creates a huge number of mods for your favorite game. And, of course, the success of GTA 5 rests on the network game, because in the company of friends it is much more fun to make a frenzy in the state of San Andreas than alone.
3. Red Dead Redemption 2
• The story about life outside the law in the Wild West was released in 2018 and immediately became a hit. Its main features are historicity, attention to detail, the elaboration of a huge open world and harsh realism.
• For example, at first the hero has to count every dollar, and in order to have more of them in his wallet, he has to scour the bodies of the shot opponents without a twinge of conscience. And even this is not always possible to do, because representatives of the law may appear at the place of dismantling, who are unlikely to approve looting.
• Add to that atmospheric cutscenes, beautiful landscapes, frequent chases and shootouts, and rollicking songs, and you'll realize that RDR 2 is definitely worth playing.
2. Eternal DOOM

• In fact, Volta is a separate game within the game, and despite its whirlwind pace, it evokes a pleasant feeling of nostalgia (if you played as part of a yard team as a child).
