I've been watching Pewdiepie play it. It looks like the bird ai needs some work...!

I just got it while waiting for Russia vs Korea to start. Played a little and survived two days xD

Never heard of it.

Never heard of it.

Can you name 5 games you have heard of?

To be fair though, steam has it in early access just now. So it must be super new.

I was aware of it, but that video is the first I've seen of it. And now I'm going to buy it.

After watching the first minute or so i was about to call my nine year old into the room as he's a big fan of Minecraft and the building aspect here would definitely appeal to him... but then the mutants came, and head-smashing with rocks commenced. He won't be playing this game for a while.

Horror is not usually my jam but I think this is a good blend of genres that appeals to me. I'm interested in seeing how it goes. I feel like I will be frustrated by the smurfers destroying my trout too quickly.

[escobert]

They're super tough right now which makes things very difficult. They make the zombies in DayZ seem like childsplay. these AI actually use tactics and trout.

Seems like the natives aren't what I need to be afraid of after all.
