Fortnite vs How to Survive 2
Fortnite
Fortnite is a unique tower-defense-like co-op game where players will be given a limited amount of time to make a coordinated effort to gather resources like metal, brick, wood and nuts and bolts, from their surroundings, build a base to defend from, and set up traps to protect said base. Oh and don't forget to upgrade the base whenever's possible and make sure to reinforce your passive defenses before the next wave of enemies arrives!Set in a world where most of humanity was somehow turned by a freak and mystical storm into mindless creatures called Husks, this game will have you fight for the last of humanity while playing as the world's last remaining heroes. You'll get to choose from one of four classes, namely the Outlander, Soldier, Constructor, and Ninja, each of which has their own unique roles to play in the team.
Fortnite may have lost some of its shine in the limelight due to the immense success of its battle royale add-on game mode, Fortnite Battle Royale, but this doesn't at all diminish the exciting multiplayer gameplay it has to offer. This is definitely a game to watch... and to play once it's officially released - hopefully as a free-to-play.
If you would like to jump into the game a bit earlier than the masses, you can purchase the early access bundle which will not only get you access to the game, but also some nice little, and exclusive, extras.
How to Survive 2
How to Survive 2 is the sequel to what was a really well-received zombie-survival game. The gameplay here is pretty similar to the original where you'll be farming the environment for resources and return to your base to craft new items and upgrade existing stuff. You can also furnish your base and improve it so as to withstand stronger attacks from roaming zombie hordes. The game even provides a much deeper crafting system, allowing you to create over hundreds of items.However, as many players have noted, the game has changed direction and is designed for multiplayer play, and considering that the game doesn't really have a lot of players now, it can admittedly get kind of boring. This can easily be fixed by adding some random events into the game, but apparently, this is not going to happen.
If you get the game on a discounted price, How to Survive is definitely a good buy. The game is perfect for fans of the original and although it can be quite repetitive at times, if you like that kind of thing, you'll enjoy this game for sure.
