I first played Project Zomboid back when it was being sold on the old website with the old 2D graphics and the Kate & Baldspot characters were still in Project Zomboid; I stuck with the community for a long time from its.. Younger years to the more welcoming, friendly recent years. I haven't had too much time to put into Project Zomboid because of the fact that I'm in college now and quite busy, but from what I have played I'll put the pro's and con's below: Pros: - Great, in-depth game which sacrifices having big fancy-shiny graphics for complex systems and interesting mechanics. - Has a unique take on the Zombie Genre by allow you to customize the zombies behavior and the general cruelty of the world in a 'Sandbox' game mode. You can customize the undead from their ability to see and smell right onto how they move (you can set zombies as runners if you wanted to) and behave. - A plethora of skills to choose from which all have their effect on your character. - Ever hear that song "Dumb ways to die"? Yeah that'll be you when you start this game. don't worry, everybody remembers their first. (Mine was a soup fire) Cons: - The learning curve for Survival can be quite steep and a lot of people complain about this; Which is understandable. NOTE: There is a sandbox mode where you can adjust Zombie Behavior, loot spawn rates, etc, etc.. If Survival is proving too difficult for you, there's no shame in playing on Sandbox. - The isometric Graphics might put people off, but if you can sit down and honestly give the game a shot, you might find it's actually like a transformer: "More than meets the eye"; However I know for some people this style of aesthetic is just a no-go, which is fine, we're all entitled to our tastes. NOTE: This is all based on single-player experiences as I haven't really bothered to touch Multiplayer, this has always been a single-player game to me out of fond nostalgia of the older builds.
