State of Decay: Year One - PC Game Review

State of Decay: Year One is a re-do of State of Decay with better graphics.

It was kind of a rip-off because the first game was relatively new when it was released, and soon the original version stopped working altogether, never to be fixed.

Now they gave gift copies to all owners of the first, which I guess is kind of nice, but 4 years after, so not great.

It is a zombie survival game, with a nice community/base building angle. I mostly liked the original version, although it had some problems with my computer at the time.

I decided to try this one. It aged very poorly.

Graphics look acceptable, but old. Worse, no support for QHD. Alt-tab switching makes the game go windowed, and you have to set it to full screen when you go back.

Interface is pretty poor, even for the age. No interaction overlays, for example. And stupid stuff like if you want to switch to a bigger bag, you need space on your existing one to take then equip them.

Car handling is awful.

Fights/search are OK.

The game has lot of great concepts, but it feels too dated and there are a lot of poor choices in the UI.
