Congrats on getting the release date and the entire community is looking forward to your multi-faceted characters.
I do wonder if that Lopez guy - the National Guard guy that falls outside the house in the demo survives… heck, there are several interesting characters introduced so far. That one guy(girl?) in the armor in that one house was interesting too.
This is going to be one of those titles with many hours played on it I bet.
I’ve been wanting to say this for a while now, but wasn’t exactly sure how to word it:
I’m often not too into many media forms (be it movies, stories,video games, etc) that involve zombies. Zombies have never been all that fascinating a monster to me most of the time (and have been rather overused lately), so I barely get interested in stories that mainly focus on them. And at the same time, too often have I seen the handling of the zombies just being a matter of characters (that you learn even less about than the zombies themselves) gathering big guns and mowing through them like grass, which does little to catch my interest when I’m more interested in knowing about the characters.
This game has been a major exception to my usual reservations. I love the fact can get to meet characters I can actually get to know. I love the fact that I have to actually pause to think about what each character I create is capable of handling when confronting obstacles, whether I’m playing as a physically impressive Mix-Martial-Artist who people think twice about antagonizing or a surprisingly resourceful Teen who many adult characters make the mistake of underestimating. And most of all, I love that survival feels like it plays a strong role this game’s core. Often I’ve stopped myself while playing this game and really thought about whether my character’s actions will lead to more benefits or consequences (especially after playing a Teenager and getting a firsthand experience on how I had to really consider how people may view them after having my kindness ‘repaid’ by two particular characters by them taking some of my stuff and leaving without a word. As I said before: I hope they come crawling back so I can sic my German Shepherd on them ).
Simply put; I really came to love this game; you did a great job with it and I can’t wait to buy it when it releases.
Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I have been working on this game many many hours and hearing people excited about it makes me feel it was worth the effort.
…I’d say “Great let them taste my doggy karma ”. But those words feel a little…ambiguous and make me mainly think “Are they going to be crawling back to my Teenager as humans or as new members of the living dead ?”
This is incredible! Let’s just hope that we don’t get a replay of what happened with Part V, where it was supposed to be released November 29 but instead wound up being released December 6.
Aside from that, congrats, and I look forward to playing it.
Ooh, I’m so excited for the release! I probably can’t play until my exams is over but when did that ever kill my excitement? Wait…opens wallet and flies pop out
