>>337996974
wouldn't that just be 7 days to die?
>>
>>337996974
yeah State of Decay, thats the one i played. probably the most promising survival game i played. that sucks that it went in the wrong direction.
>>
>>337996974
eh i liked it enough
>>
>>337992705
subnautica is decent

rust is SJW tier

Not too sure about stranded deep. haven't played it
>>
>>337996974
too bad that hd edition or whatever was fucking trash
>>
What about the long dark or the forest? anyone play those?
>>
>>337998167
because they focused and expanded on all the worst elements of the game
>>
>>337992705
Wilderness Survival was probably the best
To bad Warcraft 3 is dead now.
>>
>>337998167
does it make it worse? i wanna buy the game on steam but its the only option
>>
>>337998198
The forest is alright I guess. I bought it when it was first announced. It was literally unplayable because of every reason possible.
They've been updating it every 2 weeks and the game is quite good now, a few bugs in coop but nothing game breaking. I think they'll finish it before this year is over. Might be a good idea to wait but if you really want to play it it'd be fine too.

The long dark is a pretty good survival game. It feels like a survivor man simulator. Not to mention it being max comfy when you hole up in a comfy cabin with roaring fire and meat roasting while cleaning your rifle or sewing some new clothes during a roaring blizzard.
>>
>>337992705

The Long Dark is an excellent survival game, probably the best out at the moment.

Not even once.

I feel like survival games are made better when they are created as something else, with the survival mechanics added in later.

Minecraft in the early beta perfectly captured the feeling of going from washing up on a beach to living in your diamond encrusted lava fortress.
>>
>>338000868
it's not the genre it's just no one has done the genre right
>>
>>337999109
It's the same.

I emailed the staff of undead labs to tell them how insulted I was by the debacle, and actually got a reply.
>>
>>338000804
so boring
>>
>>338001292
You think survival is a fucking party? Found the sperg who has never set foot in the wilderness.
>>
>>338001074
Yeah thats entirely fair. I agree it has the potential to be a great genre it just has not been done yet.

Survival games:

>repetitively doing un-fun chores in order to upgrade shit; maybe it will be fun with upgraded shit?
>try to explore, get murdered
>try to upgrade shit, maybe one day I will get a weapon which doesn't suck arse?
>die, lose all my shit, need to start from scratch
>holy fuck, I've sunk 19 hours into this, where's the fun?

Long, tedious, dull, Dark.
Meh, Survival Evolved.
7 Days to Yawn
Subnautthisshitagain

>Really, though, when's it get fun?
>>
>>338001521
>In the wilderness with fresh air, beautiful scenere, excercise, nature smells, excitement.
versus
>minimist graphics, box opening simulator or bashing rocks for 2 hours in order to try and kill a giant lizard with a bamboo spear

Party or not, I expect video games to be fun.
(yaaaaaaaaawn)

Survival Games:

"Hey guys! I've made this game engine, you can wander around and there are animals! Aw, but I am shit out of ideas for gameplay and story... Fuck it, it's a survival game"

>called survival because you need endurance in order to continue past the great, unassailable best of boredom

"damn, I nearly lasted for 5 hours but then my fucks ran out"
>>
>>337992705
>tfw no good survival games

Yes, I also noticed that. I other news, there are no kind sadists.
>>
>>337992705
There's Project zomboid if you don't mind those graphics/that gameplay style. Also zombies.
then NEO Savenger as >>337992902 said.
>>
>>337997971
I like stranded deep but there's really not much to do once you
>get a shack
>kill crabs
>get stuff from underwater
>kill a shark
>find volleyball 'wilson' if that's still a thing
I can't figure out what else there is atm in the game Exploring's pretty minimum since you can see the map when you make the world. It's pretty though.

Fallout 4 has a great survival mode

Haven & Hearth was a great survival game until it became a Russian autist meta-game grief simulator.

Also, a good retro survival game was Wilderness, but it was more scenario simulation rather than open-world.

>>338007596
I bought it on release, and came back to it a few months ago, and it absolutely astonished me how much they've manager to expand upon it.

Get it on sale and you'll really enjoy it.
