Warframe
Warframe is a unique third-person shooter that has clans of space ninja’s traveling throughout the galaxy, blasting and slicing things up in scintillating PvE and PvP action. The gameplay itself is really accomplished: a fast paced blend of traditional shooting and melee, parkour platforming, and a hacking minigame.
Best of all, it’s free-to-play design isn’t overly invasive and you can quite easily play the entire game without being blocked by paywalls.
Warframe’s gameplay has some nice nuances that set it apart from other games in its genre. For a start, though players choose a character class – the “frame” in Warframe – you aren’t locked into that class. Instead, in Warframe you can swap out at will depending on whether you’d like to play a more supportive or offensive role.
Players are given their own spaceship, which acts as a base of operations. From the ship, you can peruse different planets to engage in procedurally generated cooperative PvE missions, which are narrative driven quests that flesh out the lore of the game universe.
There’s also a “conclave” area for PvP matches to mix things up if you’re in the mood for competitive play.
Characters can be leveled and equipment can be modified. There are also several companions that be acquired, providing some additional firepower by way of special abilities.
These items and additional loot are where the microtransactions come in, but you can still access and level everything free by putting honest hours into the game.
