First I've heard of it lol
-
Yeah well just because you haven't heard of it and no one's heard of it doesn't mean that it wasn't hyped, It just means it wasn't typed very effectively.
-
I accidentally heard about it a month ago and watched a bunch of videos about the studio and the game. Pretty interesting, and i was really looking forward to see how bad it is. I was kinda surprised how big the following of the game is, and most people i know have no idea that the game exists

Most-Hyped?
Since when?
-
It was the most wishlisted game on Steam for almost a year. It was the second most wishlisted at the time of launch.
It's all very sus, probably inflated by bots
-
Which is interesting because I literally have not heard of it before today.
And looking at the current list, I know about the 6 current top wishlisted games.

-
Why is it "Steam's"? The article is as bad as the game supposedly is.
-
The 'hype' was the amount of Steam wishlists it got being insanely high. It's all very sus, probably inflated by bot accounts
-
I know a handful of people who thought it looked like an impending disaster and gave it a wishlist so they could see the early negative reviews pour in
-
-
-
Because it was allegedly the most wishlisted game on steam at one point
-
-
Project zomboid is just fine
-
Being called a dumpster fire is being very generous.
-
I watched just some gameplay, and it's still better than i expected. So that's a plus i guess.
-
-
The day before refund.
-
Huh, so turns out the game does exist - though it seems it shouldn’t
-
-
9800 reviews so far and only 15% positive
-
I almost clicked the buy button, glad I didn't.
-
Zombie media is trash in general. If you're a shit writer, zombies are for you. Not surprised when that's the main selling point.
-
Zombies are just a sauce on top of the storytelling. Something is not bad just because it has tropes you recognize from other bad things.
Good Zombie Games are aplenty: Left 4 Dead Project Zomboid 7 Days To Die Plants Vs Zombies Day Z State of Decay (ish)
-
There's a ton of quality zombie media, the subject has nothing to do with the quality of the authors.
-
The best ones are more about the human stories.
-
-
They seem pretty late to the party.

The game is "The Day Before"
I guess a zombie game where you play the 24 hours before patient zero gets sick, like an evil medicine lab simulator who got a 24 hour deadline to produce the first viable zombie or get shut down by the evil investors
