I bought this game thinking it was a "open-world survival craft sandbox with zombies". While it does sound generic or something of an Early access scam that plagues Steam, the devs did deliver a worthwhile production. It scratched the itch that I liked at that time, and I had a ton of fun, specially after installing mods and overhauls like Undead Legacy or Darkness Falls.

However when 1.0 dropped, they pretty much turned this game into a "open-world RPG sandbox with zombies". A lot of the stuff I liked got simplified (well tbh everyone pretty much looked the same in MP because theyre donning a leather dusters and cowboy hats). They gave the guns more of the improvised/scrap-look (AK when from looking like a worn gun to something that came out of rust).

The current 7 Days to Die doesn't scratch that itch anymore. Specially when you keep doing quests that pretty much defined your gameplay loop. It used to be a lot more tame, you pick a house or spot as your base, build or fortify it for that dreaded 7th day, hoard items into that base, loot every house for anything of value, and do quests occasionally for extra resources. But now Quests are so impactful that you'll end up doing it most of the time, and if youre unlucky they'll keep sending you to same spots which can get boring if it happens too often.

TL;DR : Be aware that youre buying this game which functions too much as an openworld sandbox RPG rather than an openworld sandbox survival game.
