To note as well the base building mechanic that was pretty good in the old game is back now, however now appears more irrelevant than ever before. This entire sense of dread is now lacklustre, I would put money on the world being emptier of zombies and certainly of new things to do. Your character has a little more capability in terms of interactions with other characters, I mean hey you have a dialogue selection box of 2-4 options now – whoopie! I also quickly found this sense of boredom, the first State of Decay had this sense of urgency – that you could be swarmed any minute and it would be game over. kill, kill, loot, drive, empty loot, rinse and repeat. I quickly realised that almost nothing had changed, in terms of what your character is capable of, e.g. Bright-eyed and innocent, remembering some of the game mechanics from the first game I quickly started to play around with the various options available to me. Ryan’s Impression: Having played, beaten and loved the first State of Decay, I was expecting great things from it’s highly anticipated sequel 5-years later. But there really is nothing special here. It has to be noted that this isn’t a game that revolves around mechanics, so I guess I can’t knock it too much. I found this damn annoying, truth be told. There is the addition of a system in co-op where only certain people can open certain boxes. It’s a standard picking up a box and look inside, give the enemies a whack or blow them away, sort of deal. Concerning gameplay, State of Decay 2 does absolutely nothing different, innovative or interesting. James’ Impression: Third-person shooting, janky combat, backpacks, health bars and energy caps. Ryan also played through the first State of Decay, whereas James only had a brief encounter with the game. Both James and Ryan put this article together, with Ryan clocking in a bit more time than James. It wasn’t exactly a smooth start, but we think we’ve got enough insight between us to let you know if State of Decay 2 is worth buying. We spent a good few hours on launch day exploring the world and getting to know the mechanics of the game. It follows a story-arch, so you’re always on the move and expanding your abilities and relationships, creating larger groups and rebuilding your own piece of civilization. You must build bases, find and craft weapons and traverse a zombie-filled world. For those unfamiliar with the first title, State of Decay 2 is essentially a resource gathering game.
