Left4Dead 2 vs State of Decay 2
Left4Dead 2
Left4Dead 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Left4Dead. Featuring a brand new adventure and cast of characters as well as a wider variety of zombie-slaying weapons to choose from, Left4Dead 2 enjoyed an even higher level of success than the original. However, the game does have a bit of a rep for having a pretty toxic community when it comes to the game's multiplayer-based Versus mode. Apparently, anything less than perfection isn't tolerated among most players in the community so if possible, it's best to just play with the friends you already know.In short, Left4Dead 2 provides a refresh new experience, even for veterans of Left4Dead, and an exciting gameplay that fans of shooter games will likely enjoy. It is possibly the last game in the series since oddly enough, Valve is adverse the the number 3 as popular rumours go. Well, until then, mods will help to further extent the lifespan of this game far beyond 8 years (it was released in 2009).
State of Decay 2
State of Decay 2 is the highly-anticipated and long-awaited sequel to one of the top zombie-survival action-shooters out there, State of Decay. Unlike the original game, this installment has a bit more community management in it rather than simply trying to survive as a lone wolf. Each survivor has their own set of traits, skills, and attitudes that you'll need to keep balanced so that your community will thrive rather than succumb to in-fighting and general discontent.In this game, you can assign tasks to each survivor, upgrade your base, help the community solve its issues (through completing personal quests, heeding advice, or resolving disputes), and of course, recruit more survivors to join your band. State of Decay 2 will also feature a co-op mode - It's about time! - where you can try to survive with up to 3 of your friends. Not to mention, like its predecessor, the game is set in a massive open world that you're free to explore.
State of Decay 2 is definitely among the few biggest games that fans of zombie-survival games but I'm sad to say that although the game does improve on the original, the improvements are just too little and too insignificant. The game is still as shallow as before and the game gets boring and stale pretty quickly (just a couple of hours in). The game might still be worth buying on a steep discount.
