Everything from the first one but better.

Really Cool So Far, played intro, love the characterIzation, I can smell the brewing internal turmoil for our indoctrinated Gene-clone people and I think itll be a neat story. So far, reccomend, will update

So. I'm, irrationally afraid of zombies. Any game that has them is the closest to thriller horror I will ever want to touch. I hate the concept of the misunderstood/unstoppable collapse of the world, the zombie bite. Thematically and character wise they scare the ♥♥♥♥ out of me.

Project Zomboid is the first zombie game I've played that has all of those things in Droves. The tv and radio broadcasts talking about the quarantines and strange cannibal riots, the absolutely insurmountable populations of zombies. You aren't a super hero main character and you aren't immune to even eating stale cabbage or accidentally cutting your barefoot feet on sticks in the woods. Its not only a zombie game, its a zombie game where you play the lamest, least plot armored survivor ever.

My terrified ass sat in front of a tv broadcast and watched the news talk about the end of the world, and then I left the game. Three Years Later, I start playing. I'm scared, but I start exploring and fighting, dieing and trying again and again. Eventually, I consolidate enough supplies to survive the next week, and kill enough zombies to go up into the triple digits. I'm ready to find a house and I'm piss terrified of leaving my conquered territory, but I think I have to to truly survive.

This is the most excited I've been to continue playing a game
TL;DR: This game is so thematic that it scared me away for 3 years, and so good that I'm braving my fears to try it now, 10/10

great game, great DF experience with access to incredible mods. combining some of the best things about Dwarf fortress with Space and a very active Mod community.

it is great fun to win and build an empire and it is great fun to lose and just try to keep your land and family intact until the next generation.

fun fight game play and an awesome story, linear but great and worth the time and the money.

alot of sandbox fun now, it looks like it has a great future as a 3d medieval Rim world, i really like the art design. and i am pleased with the rate of additions the developer is adding.

I Love this game. Hard, unforgiving, honest. If you screw up, its your own fault. Would reccomend to anyone. Saw it was on sale this week and I decided to give it another ounce of praise to get more people into it. SImply an amazing game.

Personally, I tend to find a lot of grindy Survival games boring. Find a few sticks and some rocks, you have a campfire. Find more sticks, some rocks and some string, you have yourself the first weapon in the game. Find 1,000 Pieces of Wood, 300 Stone, 20 refined uranium, and you're halfway done with making the first crafting table in the game. Savage Lands diverges from the trend of making every single task tedious and long just to pad playtime. Find 8 pieces of wood, and bam, your first crafting table. Get a minor amount of cut stone slabs, some rocks, and some wood, and you're making metal. It balances the game by making sure that you need to invest time getting resources without roadblocking you for a week because the next spot for the specific material you need isn't 20 miles and 3 mountain ranges away from your current location, and you dont need to grind all of the low level stuff to even attempt to go somwhere else. If you know the route and have food and something even slightly warm you can make it to where you need to go, without the game making effectivly a giant wall that says "GO BACK AND SPEND 50 MORE HOURS SO YOU CAN PUT YOUR PINKEY TOE IN HERE"
Another thing I like that this game does is that it makes PVE a focus and not PVP. If half the items and mechanics of other survival games were this focused on being useful in almost any situation the industry would be less worn out on the Survival Game genre as a whole

All in all, I give this game a 9/10. The devs are working hard and interacting with the community, and the game as it is is a solid package.

Lots of fun, worth the money, although most of the player base reccomentd the multiplayer, the story is good and surprisingly well thought out.
