Heard the buzz around it and watched gameplay and decided to pick it up. Ordered from Amazon and it still included the pre order skins. It's pretty good, I only played a little though. It's kinda difficult. Visuals are quite nice and they went to great length to make each film look of Ash very accurate. There's a clear distinction between Ash in Evil Dead II and AOD. They got his hair and face really close.

I'm waiting for balance patches. Right now for Demon players it's an easy early game and almost impossible late game, plus bugs.

Not really a fan of asymmetrical multiplayer games. The only one I tolerate is Predator Hunting Grounds and that’s only because of how much I like the property in general, all things considered.

When I found out this game had no story mode or traditional singleplayer, I cancelled this shit in a heartbeat. 😂

Game looks visually impressive, but not my cup of tea. Hopefully, someone does a true Evil Dead game and skips the trendy Dead By Daylight bullshit. Good lord, between that game and Outlast, they’ve both ruined so many potentially great games.

There's no reason to compare it to DBD. It's a proper game with proper character action and is actualy fun to play. More of a mix between F13 and REsistance.

That sounds about right. I only had a little time with it this past Sunday, but tomorrow I plan on putting a lot of time into it after work with the wife.

And those games are basically just cousins to Dead By Daylight. Like I said, would be all over this game, if it wasn’t an asymmetrical multiplayer game.

I didn't expect the game to be hard like it is. The little I did of single player, if you're surrounded you need to not get surrounded.

You couldn't be more wrong, but I see that it's pointless to talk about it.
I have all of them. Granted, I’ve barely touched Resistance. But F13 is just a better and more interesting Dead By Daylight. This seems to be along the same vein. More polished and what not. The asymmetrical shit is boring at this point. It has been since Predator Hunting Grounds.

Put like two hours into the first three missions. I like it a lot, but it's hard. The shooting in it feels real good, especially the lever gun from AOD.

Is there any talk of them adding an actual story singleplayer?

There sorta is a story mode but it's limited to missions. Like there's a portion of Evil Dead II where you have to stick Linda's head in the vice but it adds elements of going into the woods to retrieve stuff.

I haven't tried online yet but it's gotta be a blast. It's stupid how many characters from the series they put in it and everyone gets alt outfits.

Yeah, well F13 had the same thing and it’s kinda lackluster. It unlocks some things, if I remember correctly. Outside of that, not worth playing much afterwards. I’ve really been hoping for a decent singleplayer Evil Dead and Spawn game for a long time. And especially Predator. Don’t understand why we are only getting what we are getting. And in the case of Spawn, he’s completely MIA.

I’m also not a fan of these asymmetrical games locking some of the more iconic outfits behind a pre-order bonus. Being timed is one thing. I think that’s cool. Getting to have a skin for a year? Sure. But if it’s not a collectors edition, it needs to be sold on the shop after a while. And these games are fucking notorious for not doing that.

I’ve got someone pestering me to play this. Is there an option to play with people, but fill in with AI, if there’s just two of you?

Howd this game age for y'all? It looked like a more involved version of F13 which is right up my alley, but it also seemed like it could get boring / repetitive very quickly.

The DM role definitely looks unique with the dungeon master vibe but I'm more curious how the good guys gameplay holds up over time.
