✓ Both are tactical first-person shooters — sharing shooter, first-person shooting and deep simulation

≠ Its own twist: ranged combat and fantasy world, while skipping adventure storytelling

The 2005 original that started the series: a lone OSS sniper in the ruins of Berlin, built around bullet drop, wind and breath control at a time when few shooters modelled any of it. The ballistics still hold up. Everything around them does not — movement is famously slippery and frame-rate dependent, the controls are unmapped and awkward, and the tutorials interrupt constantly.

The gang is back, and they have bigger and better plans. Objective based cooperative FPS became more complicated. The classic group of Hoxton, Dallas, Chains and Wolf got reinforcement, and now Payday Gang consists of 21 heisters, some of which are based on movie characters or even Youtubers.
