I have to get a pc nothing i want to play anymore is revovling around console. Project zomboid. This particular game. Mod community for dayz. Still want to try ready or not. Tired of paying yearly subscriptions with controllers that cost $75 and get stick drift within a year. Sorry for the rant game looks really fun!

[@jipped18]

Just got zomboid a few weeks ago. Worth it and it will definitely take time to get "good' or comfortable

[@Remy2947]

This is releasing on console after PC devs say.

[@projectgreywolffilms]

I got a gaming laptop for editing and to play the amazing games I kept seeing people play and they are usually extremely affordable for what you’re getting.

[@jefferydraper4019]

Rant all you want. Very valid points.

[@geodude3966]

It's like the devs played This War of Mine and decided to make a zombie version of it, the look and gameplay is near identical.

[@kgameproce]

Hi, Brian Greetings from Brazil As you said, This War of Mine is brutal, its hard core, but is one of the best game I have ever played. Its amazing, but you have to read everything about the resources, the Bio (that blinking on your face) and the explanation about every place you visit during the night. And run, don’t walk. You have a short period of time to built things and scavenge. I’ve played with every character and worth big time

[@baine5.7]

The war of mine ,you don't have to feed then until there really hungry, that saves a ton of food ,and dosen't effect them at all ,just learned that few days ago myself when trying to play this.

[@churlify]

Easily the best demo this year

[@jplayboijoe36]

Hey this game is different side view .I like how you play bro you make me want to play 😂.you so laid back on every game.

[@SodoMojo22]

Loving the overall atmosphere of this game.

[@jasongorkisch]

I think something you missed in Into the Dead - on one of the loading screens, it says if you move your shelter, you will automatically loot whatever loot is left at the new base, so apparently you don't need to fully loot before you move in which will save you a day/night phase

[@CRIMSON-SOUNDWAVE]

They did a good job with the sound and animations of the zombies 🧟‍♂️

[@ootiann]

i love this war of mine so much but even back when i first played it i was thinking "this game needs zombies", so happy someone did it. youre a different kind of streamer than what im used to. im usually into indie games (cozy, colony management, strategy etc etc) so its usually women or nerds...or both. this is great, excited for more!

[@michaelschuenemann3505]

Game looks Really Good - Fantastic Graphics ! Yes - I would love to see You playing it when it gets Released and make a Series of it Thumbs Up ! Cheers from Australia !

[@te84]

First I was like, this is not for me, but after 10 min or so I was hooked! Wish listed fast! Looks fun for the steamdeck.

[@agamenon1381]

You gotta play this one. It's insanely good. Awesome

[@nikkisix3571]

I really enjoyed watching you play. I love that you know when to tap out and RUN!😂 You didn't play to your characters strengths. Your old man has an iron stomach, remember? So he can eat ANYTHING and be ok (raw meat, dog food, etc). This was my 1st time watching you, and you earned a subscriber!❤

[@alexanderthegreatandterrib4589]

Its different, hard for me to think of playing anytype of zombie game that isn't open world thanks to State of Decay. Like a lot of what I have seen in the game and has a good scare factor and detailed characters that could learn to really like and fear losing.

[@OGEyezLoweHumble]

Always try the windows. Go out the window of the church and work ya way around till you find the telescope 1 floor down from where the telescope is there's a survivor you can recruit.

[@Bexter1982]

I love this war of mine. Would love to watch you play it. Graphics are better in this but I do like how gritty and depressing TWOM is 😊

[@Lee-o1o6g]

To bad you don't start off in a building right next to a supermarket 😂

[@nickdegroat1689]

Yes, would love a play through of this war of mine

[@OGEyezLoweHumble]

Check all roofs for telescopes they always unlock more places every Roof has telescope. And yes you can recruit the survivors at the precinct you have to unlock the precinct first than go there. And there's a survivor at 1 of the first 3 places you unlocked hiding on the roof.

[@mygotiger]

that pan and ran gotta be the best strat in any zombie survival game! 10/10

[@nunya1728]

23:36 the chair barricading the wrong side of the door is kinda funny 😂

[@KitsNoYoru]

in 30 seconds you compared it to state of decay and this war of mine im sold those are two big inspirations for a game design project im actually working on myself

[@JesseJamison-f6i]

I think I am kind of enjoying this halloween-themed gameplay selection, that's what it seems like. I do like zombie games I guess I can be a little narrow-minded when it comes to it, but I just want to say I do appreciate whatever games you play, most of them seem interesting to me.. but if I skip past it I might come back to it later it's kind of my take on it. 😊 Especially when I'm bored. And then I'll just watch just about any game.

[@GGGrem]

Rewatching your OG War of mine stream now, hope you make it a play through. Definitely excited for into the dead’s release too. I’m playing both!

[@divineparadox2507]

Joe has some brains hanging out the window like that!

[@armygalhel7006]

Comments count! This looks great!

[@durtysockz]

So i have played the piss outta of This war of mine, across, ps4, ps5, mobile, tablet, pc and switch, and I still consider myself mediocre. Butttt in TWoM you can drop loot at the exits, it creates a new loot pile that persists through the different nights, i use that to ferry as much loot from that specific map to my preferred exit. It also let's you get the lay of the land to see if u should bring a shovel next night to dig out an area, saw blade to cut metal bars, lock picks etc.

[@J.e.r.o.e.n]

Definitely interested in the zombie game. ‘This war of mine’ is a great game, and their new one the Alters I tried in a demo and it also worth a try and keep an eye on. Similar gameplay with some differences.

[@jessicapabon2105]

I wonder... I noticed that there's like an apartment complex right next to the door where all the survivors are at I wonder if those boards can be removed because there's only two zombies in there and maybe kill them also can you send off the new people that you rescued out to do what Daryl and Leo are doing or no??

[@jermeywilliams6704]

If This war of mine and Deadlight were combined this is what you'd get

[@amostarver4778]

What platform is this on? Do anybody know?

[@truegamer2819]

bruh that frying pan almost made ya ass became zombie food thats f*cking hilarious 🤣

[@haydanrogers7408]

Big fan of this war of mine and its the first ive seen this, so glad you covered it!! 100% on the list to play 😍

[@MrJayelamont]

This was hard!! Definitely play this through!

[@DeepDishLvr]

I want more of both gameplays, please. Enjoyed both games

[@dedmeetguitar]

I can't believe Leo did all that work just to pee out his butt lol!

[@chrneath]

Why is Darrel breathing so hard lol 😂

[@Lee-o1o6g]

There is people at the police station the more the better change of survival

[@QueenNiQa]

im going to have to play this, thanks for show casing it.

[@JWildberry]

I would love to watch This War of Mine!

[@richardnealon987]

JEEZ, those take downs are brutal. may have to have a look at this :) it does have elements to SOD2 aswell

[@blackblade2279]

i wouldnt mind a playthrough of this game thinking about getting it myself

[@blackblade2279]

talking about this war of mine but i also like into the dead

[@tasteslikeoctober5811]

I would say if there's one thing they need to improve, that's the durability of weapons

[@oggamerbk]

Man this war of mine was my jam ima have to get this

[@TheSteel101]

Was disappointed that there are no actual character death animations The zombies just smack you and then you die No being eaten or torn apart

[@FranktheBlindArtist]

They hooked you in! ❤

[@nicknevco215]

I want to see more gameplay thank you for playing

[@ThisOLmaan]

pretty internse i really dont play side scrollers, but this here is different definitely buying.... plus i enjoy watch any of ur gameplay gives a sense of comfort TY Brian Man👍

[@wenderajade]

The breathing noises are a bit much, but really liked the demo

[@pyner0s496]

CURMUDGEON.. is a bad-tempered old person.

[@kevgloster84]

This game is amazing. I downloaded it on my rog ally

[@Lee-o1o6g]

I like it too wish there was more

[@randystephenson6963]

@ brian Menard omg savageness brian... those poor older couple you robbed them wow 😂😂😂😂😂

[@zoidberg78]

Man you did those old people dirty bro 😂😂😂

[@1MajorTom]

Great Demo😁

[@SDOTFILMS]

Even in a zombie apocalypse. Prices for things are still high. Lol

[@bushmonster1702]

This is one creepy ass game. Looking forward to it.

[@Talenvar]

For Marko 💜

[@richs347]

This game looks great, but I hate the durability issues of weapons. I mean a solid metal crowbar should not break after killing a couple of zombies. What kind of system is that? Solid steel metal can't just break so easily. They need to revamp weapon durability at least to make it so you don't have to replace weapon too often.

[@kvitulv]

Its seems to me from playing the game, that zombies in potential haven areas are easier to defeat than non potential havens locations. does others feel that way?

[@Lee-o1o6g]

Yes send him out

[@truegamer2819]

yea you gonna need a really good quite weapon to go through the gameplay faster

[@Jnotti007]

Great stream

[@ryanmcdonald9251]

all these ppl are safe, i see no driving involved lol

[@pixador13]

Hhaahaaa 😅

[@drjonesey5]

My only problem when great or interesting Zombie games are made, they make them "gimmicky" instead of just good. In my point of view, if the Zombie game is not TPS or FPS I'm not going to care about it to purchase and support. The standard is TPS like RE or FPS like the usual. Now I will WATCH it, but I will never play it. Project Zombie is one of if not THE best Zombie survival multiplayer game ever, yet I've never played it because of the camera view, this game gives me the same vibe. When I think of the perfect zombie experience, I think of, I want to feel like I'm IN a Zombie Apocalypse, not watching it far off. I was just Hyped by Phasmophobia's console release, WHY? because the game puts you IN the haunting you must deal with. The perfect Zombie Game to me combines the scale of GTA, is DAY Z-like, with Custom player Characters, with survival elements but not too over the top in that area. We STILL don't have that in a high quality available to all package, and it's 2024. We see great idea after great idea, but NEVER exactly this, why? A lot of these studio's have millions to do it and huge teams and smaller teams have done a crap ton on their own, it just took more time to complete. So what's the excuse? Just make a Project Zomboid....in first or Third person and tweak game modes for interest, this isn't rocket science.

[@michaelbondy-ud9jx]

damn bro... I think that soldier was asking that girl for a favor, not you. You must have been starving lol. Jk... that was hilarious!

[@RobnDob]

This looks sweet

[@Dx-so7jm]

Seems like This War of Mine type gameplay

[@Lee-o1o6g]

Have to grow some more vegetables on the roof

[@xkandymariex]

Can you play more of this war of mine please

[@kvitulv]

If you seriously consider 'this war of mine' there is a mod that let you play as the bandits. kinda cool but makes the game way to easy.

[@DerGoChris]

This world of mine would be an awesome Play through just don't have a soft heart lol

[@jmangames5562]

[@Bhumi-w6p]

Yaa upload more videos like this I like it ❤❤🎉🎉

[@Jfromtexas]

Looks like a great game. The characters loud breathing is only thing I didn’t care for.

[@Lee-o1o6g]

There is people at the police station

[@burnouter7]

Is. It PC only?

[@Lee-o1o6g]

Let the old man sleep it off

[@maintenancelordgaming5778]

i enjoyed watching brian play this, not sure i could get used to this point of view style game

[@УжиВанен]

thank you... I got moral trauma

[@divineparadox2507]

Dang Darrel...not cool.

[@neotix01]

Lets see some more War Of Mine!

[@randystephenson6963]

@brian Menard you are to willing to sacrifice others to zombies just because you can't manage more then just yourself .. do better lol

[@Lee-o1o6g]

Just leave him at base

[@Xicom77]

More of this war of mine!

[@MD_Ignite]

You can’t search multiple times, you dropped your own fabric in there and reclaimed it 😂 damn you’re frustrating to watch lol I face palm way to often 😅

[@Remy2947]

The breathing is too much. Hope they remove it or tone it down before release.

[@attranxuan5463]

1:10:58 dude. You are racist

[@cbertulfo]

Reading?
