I’ve had Horde Shooters on the brain and wanted to really dig into why the good ones are so good. I also discovered people are still playing Back 4 Blood. Returning to that was a trip.

unlabelledView post →With all the Left 4 Dead I've been playing I started thinking about Back 4 Blood again. I'm really curious what the Dev's post mortem on that game was cause it felt to me like an overall solid game that was ultimately hampered by a lot of minor flaws (and the boring character cast).

unlabelledView post →I'm reminded by a video of Back 4 Blood and man that game was so disappointing so much unnecessary additions that failed to be interesting and felt more like pointless bloat added for the purposes of bloat why was there a fucking card collecting system

unlabelledView post →Back 4 Blood really lost something for me when it brought all the playing cards and weapon stats and in-game currency to the Left 4 Dead formula. I want a story that lasts the exact length of time me and whoever I've roped in is able to play.

unlabelledView post →There was a popular L4D2 mod that added Jaden Smith's Kony 2012 tweets to graffiti. Note: the game came out in 2009, the mod was posted in 2016, 7 years later. 5 years after release, Back 4 Blood purposely has no mods, no modding community. This mod was last updated in *2023*
unlabelledView post →I’m nervous to stream again in two days, just as it’s been a whil— okay almost a week but still.. may as well yap about the game ideas to distract from that. I’m thinking either more Elden Ring or perhaps some Back 4 Blood. Otherwise, I have: Sorry, We’re Closed or 60+ other game choices. 👉👈

unlabelledView post →One of our co-op buddies for Borderlands is out of town, so my buddy Leo and I loaded up Back 4 Blood and FINALLY rolled credits on the base game 😅 We started this game back in October 2021 at launch, so it's very satisfying to finally finish it even if it's on the easiest difficulty 😂 #Back4Blood

unlabelledView post →Back 4 Blood devs ignoring Left 4 Dead devs literally including a walk through in the game where they explained their gameplay decisions, the research leading to them and basically giving a masterclass in game design and then making a garbage-ass zombie shooter is the ultimate fumble.
unlabelledView post →Finally rolled credits on Act 6 of Back 4 Blood with one of my best friends!!! We started this game 3+ years ago in October 2021 😂 then picked it back up late last year. Feels good to finally finish the Story Mode on the easiest difficulty 😅 Got 12 achievements too, sitting at 63% completion now 🤙🏻

unlabelledView post →About the only thing that tried the coop thing before Helldivers was Back 4 Blood, which was a trainwreck no one was happy with. There's more stuff now, like that Alien game and Space Marine 2, but it was a largely barren field mostly occupied by tiny niche games.

unlabelledView post →I purchased a month of Game Pass way back to play Back 4 Blood and I still got the same feeling of buyer's remorse as if I paid full price for the game. What an absolute disgrace of a game piggybacking on a legacy that wasn't theirs to begin with. It only proved that Valve saved L4D from mediocrity

unlabelledView post →So I started Back 4 Blood with my bro and, frfr, that game just DOES NOT get the shine it deserves I still wish it had mods like Left 4 Dead, and a quick deck feature, but it's mechanics, stages, and everything to do with the Hives is flat out an improvement in comparison

unlabelledView post →This is how I felt with Back 4 Blood. Valve absolutely abandoned Left 4 Dead 1, so it wasn’t a unique issue of coop zombie games. Still a very fun game with a lot of playstyle options, even if Vs was never its focus.
unlabelledView post →Nono, Turtle Rock are totally shit, that's why Back 4 Blood sucks, nevermind that development teams might change over 10 years, or that Valve thought the game was good enough to invest in and put their names on and that WB Games is a public company with shareholders.
unlabelledView post →the base version of KF2 on Steam rn is only on sale for 3$ if ur interested :3 this version includes the first game too ^_^ and yeahhh i played a bit of Back 4 Blood at a friend's house cuz they had beta privileges.
