I’m Just curious about, do you prefer RPGs (Role-Playing Games) or FPS (First-Person Shooters)? Personally, I love getting lost in the story and character development of RPGs, but the fast-paced action of FPS games is hard to resist. What about you? Which one do you enjoy more and why? Let’s hear your thoughts!

        Haha, it’s not for everyone. But my favourite games have been games like the sims or SimCity.

        Have you ever played rimworld or CDDA?

      fun is classified by having a feeling of enjoyment from playing a video game.

      hope this helps.

      So what’s fun about that series has changed overtime.

      When I first got l4d1 I was excited to share a spooky experience with friends. I found the atmosphere of the campaigns and characters interaction to be enjoyable.

      When l4d2 came out I was a seasoned player and I felt that the level design was worse (but still fun) than the first game except for Hard Rain, that campaign was very challenging. However the addition of melee weapons was huge and the new variety of monsters appreciated.

      But what kept me coming back was how much love went into the game over the course of its lifetime. All the l4d1 campaigns and characters got imported, extra campaigns were added. All for free (on PC) to enjoy.

      The workshop added infinite replayability as there’s so many custom campaigns and other whacky content to explore.

      Also the PvP mode where your team takes turns doing the campaign and playing as the zombies was easily the best way to play the game in my opinion.

      So if you didn’t get into the game with a group of friends back when it was the zombie game to play. I could see why you might not think it’s fun or if you didn’t have any friends to play with. It’s not a great single player experience and the AI sucks.

        I played it with friends, but quickly got bored of the simple mechanics and lack of progression. It’s like a zombie game skin over Half-life 2.

          I weep for the audience of video games.

          Yeah it’s pretty basic compared to modern games.

          At the time ‘world at war’ was the other popular zombie game and it’s also pretty simple by today’s standards.

          I like the lack of progression, it’s nice to know everyone starts the same with each game. No special meta build just to enjoy the game.

          I think the game back4blood seriously shot themselves in the foot by lacking the co-op verses mode l4d had. It’s the biggest complaint I hear against it, that and the lack of workshop support to make your own campaigns and content.

      Don’t ask people to defend their enjoyment simply because you don’t enjoy the same thing.

      Your comment adds nothing but an unpleasant atmosphere. It would have been better to not make it.
