State of Decay vs The Last of Us
State of Decay
State of Decay is a pretty unique zombie survival RPG that doesn't only feature a vast open world for you to explore but also allows you to build a base, fortify it and recruit survivors (NPCs), each with their own personalities and characteristics, that you encounter to join you. You can even ask them to join you as you venture out into the world to find more items. The game's crafting system is pretty in-depth as well along with an interesting scavenging system that allows you to speed up the process of scavenging but at the cost of potentially attracting surrounding zombies to swarm to your location. Aside from the many weapons available, tere are even a wide variety of vehicles for you to drive around and ram zombies with.Granted that the game still has some bugs and that the developers had earned a pretty bad rep for apparently releasing a patch as a separate DLC and wanting players to pay for it, State of Decay is still undoubtedly a very fun zombie survival game to play. If you can get the game at a discount, this game is definitely worth the price, especially for fans of the genre.
The Last of Us
The Last of Us is one of the most critically-acclaimed adventure game, mainly because of the incredibly well-written and paced as well as emotionally-charged storyline that purportedly can make most grown men weep. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where infected humans or hostile survivors roam abound, you'll play as Joel, a mercenary who was hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl, Ellie, out from the military quarantine zone. However, as you might expect, things went wrong and you'll find yourself making the journey the gruelling way instead.The Last of Us has won multiple awards and nominations since its release and has been touted as one of the most well-made console game for 2013. This is not at all surprising considering how well the game was made and how amazing both the graphics and the sound complement each other.
