Dead Age 2

Fernando tells Sarah that she should stay in the kitchen in the first 20 minutes of the game. 10/10 would hang out with Fernando again.
This game can spend the next 10 hours as a CNB torture simulator and I'll always fondly remenber Fernando, my hispanic homeboy.
EDIT:
After putting some time into this game, I can say that there is a lot of things that lack polish. For example, not being able to get all 3 factions to join your end game thing despite getting all 3 to agree. There's even dialogue where your main character complains about how "I couldn't get everyone to agree" even though you literally just did that exact thing.
Some of the quests are not clear on how to complete them. How TF do you get Mason out of jail? I paid his debt, got the thing he sends you for, and he mumbles about some girl who is delaying things, but she is nowhere to be found?
The bridge thing. I solved the "Mystery" basically by accident. The guidance on what to do with this quest was absurdly lacking.
When you are setting out to forge alliances, for some reason the faction heads will tell you "gotta do more stuff for me first" despite having 100/100 rep.
"Normal" difficulty is extremely hard, whilst Casual is so easy that you can get bored with it. I would really like to see either Normal get nerfed down a bit so its not quite as much of a slog, or casual get cranked up just a bit so its not laughably easy.
Your game has some serious flaws, and I hope you haven't abandoned it. Still, Fernando is my dude. Looking forward to my next play already.

Overall recommended, but it tends to overstay its welcome. The enemies and missions don't offer much variety once it gets to the first few missions with the mutatations. For me, most of it was a grind beyond Day 26. Programmed-in modifiers for skills, weapons etc. also frequently yield unexpected results. For example, I was able to successfully pick several locks despite having 0 skill in the required category and a 45% base chance. Story has a few plot twists but not a whole lot that would be in player's control. Could have been better but good enough for me to slog through a one-time 'Normal' difficulty run till the end.

Having played both the first and the second game, I must say the devs worked real hard to make this one way better than the first. First off, all skills are viable and have their place. Hunter and engineering skills complement eachother beautifully. This is also true for guns. A pistol with cheap ammo can be used to delay and weaken whereas a rifle with expensive ammo can unleash death upon... the dead. The skills that require 3 AP can be used frequently in the later game. They deal so much damage that you can wait for half turn (1 AP) and use a 3 AP next turn and make this a regular playstyle.
One thing I found a bit off is that you don't actually need high level ammo. Game doesn't give you much iron and wolfram to make them anyway. Plus the fact that you produce 50 regular ammo and 30 of other types in one sitting is also a turnoff. So in my game, I chose to produce the regular ammo and shoot without counting my bullets rather than producing expensive stuff and be stingy about them.
The fights can be repetitive sometimes yes but I didn't find it boring. Planning missions and production is fun.
The story, characters and the dialogues are not my favorite part of the game. There is a small improvement after the first game but they are still very simple.

This is a great game ! The survival background and the story are very nice. Personnally I really appreciate turn based games.
The resources management is tricky and despite the fights might sound a bit repetitive at some point, still the challenge would be to consume the less bullets to win.
Though for the first game I recommand to die or restart at some point in order to understand the game mechanisisms and perform a better start (you also get "medals" from restarting to improve your main character) ; first time I have wasted many skill points because I did not understand how it worked.
I recommand this game.

It's a great game that builds on the first game. It combines the base management of state of decay with the turned base combat of an old final fantasy game. IT has a good story that continues the story of the 1st, but you don't have to play the 1st game to play this game.

Well worth the full asking price. Can easily get 40-80 hours of this without getting bored.

Great game. Lots of good strategy. It's one of those "I'll just play one more turn then go to bed" games.
