The concept for this game is something that's very unique and interesting, having a zombie game in an open world with a focus on parkour. In my opinion, it kinda just falls flat in practice.
The story is okay. Nothing special, failed to get me interested in it at all. Most of the characters are written like little kids, and some of the voice lines made me wince at how cheesy they were.
The parkour is okay. A bit clunky at times but it's alright. However, there's only so many times I can parkour through the same area before it just gets boring.
The combat sucks, though. It's a "spam left click" combat system, which is really disappointing considering how much detail other systems have. The specials try to make it more interesting, but they all just do annoying things and can be killed in the exact same way as literally everything else, including the volatiles, which the game makes out to be super strong enemies that you should never fight, despite them being pretty easily dealt with if they don't bug out and fall through the floor.
There is a ton of fluff content. There's so many different missions all crammed in one spot, and they all just seem like they exist purely to increase the amount of time it takes to 100% the game.
The game is INSANELY buggy though. Super ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up balancing (the balatro knife, which i got within ~7 hours of gameplay while actively avoiding the location where you get it, is able to shred all of the enemies without much difficulty), enemies move and hit you through walls and floors and teleport around sometimes, several spots where you get stuck super easily, the game will freeze your mouse randomly and force you to restart the entire PC, so many unopenable chests and ungrabbable loot items that make it impossible to complete certain objectives, and there's even a mission that is physically impossible to complete without using exploits. For a $60 game that's had 4 years of extra time to develop at this point, the amount of bugs are unbelievable.
Generally, only get it on sale. It's not worth $60 with the bugs and lackluster combat.
