Days Gone vs How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition
Days Gone
Days Gone is a Playstation-exclusive, open world zombie-survival game set in a -obviously- post-apocalyptic world. In this game, you'll get to play as Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter who not only struggles to survive but also to find a meaning to life in a world that has gone to the dogs. Featuring a profound storyline where you'll get to experience what it feels like being in Deacon's shoes, you'll also get to enjoy plenty of zombie-killing, in addition to scavenging for resources, crafting better tools and weapons, exploring the world on Deacon's cool Drifter Bike, and completing a wide variety of challenges in whichever way, manner or approach you like. The game also has some really stunning game environments, cities (mostly ruined or abandoned ones, of course) and biomes to immerse yourself in.From the many sneak peeks, Days Gone seems to have the powerful narrative that is guaranteed to tug at your heartstrings while having a fun third-person shooter gameplay and a zombie theme that many gamers can get behind. The game is slated to be released early 2018, but you can pre-order your disc and be ready to dive into some exciting zombie-killing action once Days Gone is launched.
How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition
How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition is a zombie-survival RPG that is quite the underappreciated gem among other games of the same genre. Featuring a rare (at least within the genre) isometric-like view of the world much like in Diablo, this game will have you rummaging through anything that may hide vital resources you'll need, ranging from food and water to a variety of crafting materials, in order to survive. You'll need to build a shelter for yourself as well just to have a safe and protected space free of both zombies and other natural threats.However, unlike most survival games, How to Survive features a hack-and-slash, twin-stick shooter-styled gameplay, which frankly explains why they opted for an isometric view rather than the more immersive first- or third-person perspective. The game even contains a skill tree for you to invest points in, and insanely in-depth crafting system, and an overall most satisfying game experience.
If you love the graphical and gameplay style of Last Day on Earth: Survival and yet are looking for a PC game equivalent that doesn't have any IAPs, How to Survive is definitely a game you'll want to check out. It is miles better than what any free-to-play survival game can be!
