Damn I was looking forward to this game. I dont have the patience to play mediocre games anymore. Maybe next year when the game is fixed

Tagging this, some of the comments are gold.

The thing is, the score is low, is it shocking? Not really, I can't imagine anyone was expecting this to be in the 80-90% range based on the first game and the recent lack of polish in their games.

As long as it stays above red I think it's not a "low" scope for the title, sort of like Kirby on switch getting a 73, no one was expecting botw/Odyssey scores there in reality. It's expectedly middle of the road if that makes sense.

Nothing wrong with a 69 ;)

At least , I saw 19 people .

And please don't involve Kirby into this argument.

Not shocking but still kind of surprising.  The studio now has a lot more capital thanks to sales of the first game and signing a much touted contract with Microsoft.  They've also had a long development period to build on what they learned from the first game.

I think it was reasonable to expect a leap in quality.

Now I'm wondering if this IP is actually kind of on cruise control because they know people will buy it, while they focus their attention on the other projects.  I know they were talking about an MMO at one point, which makes me wonder if they're on Microsoft's GaaS bandwagon.

Really too bad, was considering getting this on PC to play with buds. Guess I'll just have to finish Dying Light instead.

It does have an overarching story, although it is a bit cliché.

From what I've saw the co op is kinda half-assed and glitchy, so considering it was the most requested feature by fans of the original, it's understandable that so many people are disappointed. I also can't see Crackdown 3 faring much better than this game and SoT, so I hope MS have some real winners up their sleeves for XB1 this year.

Started the game this morning, looks great on my Scorpio. Made a racket rummaging through a bag for loot, got jumped by zombies. Ah, feels good to be back in State of Decay.

The score and the lack of polish for State of Decay 2 is very disappointing. Microsoft has one of the worst track record this generation, the fact that they claim to have help PUBG polish the game on console is the cherry on top for what was a lack luster in performance this generation.

State of Decay 2 was given the AAA treatment at E3 but it reality it never got the budget and staff to make a full AAA game.

Never the less, I can't wait to play State of Decay 2, the first game in the serie was one of my favorite game on Xbox 360 and it apparently ran much worst then State of Decay 2. For fan of the first game seem like they brought many improvement we would want in a sequel.
