That's a shame. I'd play a supernatural horror xcom game.

Apparently this thing got a release date, 11.11.22: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1716740/Starfield/

Wonder how it'll turn out.

Thanks for pointing out the Steam page. We've known the release date as that was part of the reveal back in the summer. But now I can put it on my wishlist.

From what I have been able to gather, the premise of the game appears to be that humanity has advanced far enough in spacefaring technology that we are at a point where we can go anywhere within the solar system pretty easily and routinely. And the game is about us taking the next big step, leaving our star system and traveling to another star system for the first time, something far more challenging and dangerous than what we've become accustomed to. For me, given my academic background and personal interests, that is a truly awesome premise for a game. Sooooo looking forward to it.

Keyrock you have loads of experience in these types of games and you have seen a lot and sometimes it may be difficult to make someone with your overall gaming knowledge " excited " but arent you excited about DY2 ?

The level of detail we get in most trailers about DY2 is brilliant and informative and just adds to what fans like me already know about DY2....its going to be a excellent game in the same way DY1 was an excellent game 

So I can say with sincerity " I am excited about this game "   and its definitely on my "day 1 purchase " like BG3 for sure 

@Wormerine @Lexx@Sarex@Malcador@Theonlygarby@MrBrown@Oner@kanisatha@Mamoulian War and others 

Are you guys excited about DY2 ?

[Lexx]

Didn't even like the first game, and the second apparently has "jump pads" from air vents. Nah, this is too much for me.

[Mamoulian War]

What is DY2? If it's Dying Light 2, then no. I am not into these kind of games.

I wouldn't say I have a lot of experience with zombie games. I played Dead Island, it was meh, I grew to dislike it. I played Zombi-U on the Wii-U (I'm one of the 5 people that bought that console), it was a mediocre game with 1 cool gimmick where inventory was on the controller touch screen so you had to take your eyes off the TV to dig something out of your pack. I played Dying Light and I liked it a lot, it was the game Dead Island should have been. Focusing on movement was a smart decision.

Yes, I am excited for Dying Light 2.

I am looking forward to it but I'll wait for reviews.

That trailer for Dying Light 2 stressed me out.

Methinks that's the point. Humans are the real monsters and all that jazz.

If I ever  play a zombie game, it will be too soon.  I am completely biased, no matter how good the game is, if the main enemy are zombies, I won't play it.

[Theonlygarby]

@BruceVC

That sounded angrier than I meant it haha.  I just hate how many zombie games there are, to the point that I pretty much disregard all zombie games.  State of decay was actually cool, but I kept wishing it wasn't zombies

[Hurlshort]

I also am pretty much over the zombie game fad. Dying Light's parkour style gameplay could work well for a lot of different genres, though.

[ShadySands]

Me three unless Mitsoda ever makes Dead State 2

[Lexx]

What a coincidence. Project Zomboid MP beta was released last friday, and thousands of people are hype about it now. Hell, I even rented a dedicated server just so me and co. can play it.

[Zoraptor]

Don't think we'll ever get a Dead State 2, but I'd love a similar styled game. Or a similar styled post apoc game.

Closest to DS2 was probably Dead Age 2, which was one of the better spur of the moment purchases I've made in the past year- but it's really not all that similar to Dead State.

[Humanoid]

The only zombie game I tolerate is Death Road to Canada.

[Sarex]

I'm not in to zombie games either, although The Last Stand: Aftermath looks interesting, I am considering getting it. Specifically for Dying Light, I watched some streams of it and it's not my type of game, even if we take the zombies out of the equation.

[bugarup]

I love everything zombies, but I get you guys - I feel the same way about high aka "poor man's Tolkien" fantasy. 

Really liked Dead State, wish there were more of it, also have both Dead Ages, might give them a try around Christmas if I'm ever able to unglue myself from "Kenshi".

...now when I think, I probably own every zombie adjacent game on GOG, even ones I kind of don't get, such as Dying Light.  Like, open world parkour, wtf, why did I even buy it...oh, right. Zombies!

I've never heard of this game, and watching that trailer I had exactly this same reaction. Prolly not a game for me.

Oh for ****S sake. Why? Didn't they get the hint from when Ubisoft unlisted their nft bull**** video?

[Malcador]

If they are right and they don't affect gameplay, what's the problem ?

Their attempt to calm the jihad.

Well, almost all of my complaints would be summed up by the bottom part of this picture in the same twitter thread;

The problem is that they're enabling it and help in legitimizing these things.
