So found this game the other day "7 Days to Die (http://7daystodie.com/)"

Its clearly copying Minecraft, Dayz and several other game elements. But all games tend to copy things from each other. So does anyone think this game will be good and worth the 15 bucks when it release, or a cheap fucking ripoff. You can pay more and get the beta and/or alpha as well

I'd personally wait for reviews. The market has been flooded with shitty zombie games lately and this one may be no exception to that trend. The videos look interesting, but if the features are implemented poorly you could have a $15 bag of shit on your hands.

Agree with Temp. Just wait it out...granted it's only 15 bucks..but it's still 15 bucks lol. Maybe pirate it right out the gate to check it out.

Well graphics aren't great, so you'd have to hope the mechanics are well done, but doesn't look like it, kind of blocky and what not. With a lot of these games too there is only so much you can actually do so the creative aspect is limited, especially considering this is not exactly a high budget game the freedom to try different things out probably won't really be there, but wait to see what the reviews say, besides this will probably go on sale for like 5 bucks or less at some point not too long after its release.

Looks interesting, but i don't really like the animations it has in it... I'll probably watch it for awhile before considering buying it

honestly, it looks pretty sweet. in a super-pre-alpha way of course.

i saw...i think it was TotalBiscuit do a vid on it, i don't think it was Frankie, but whatever. i wouldn't buy it until its farther along, but i would definately play a free/open beta.

i think this might help some of you understand a little bit more about the game and its development.

You dont pay to get and play the game this early, you pay to help support there development and test the game to help determine how the game will be. If you want to wait for the full release of this game, it may be a very long time before that happens. it seems to me that this game is dynamic and very promising. @what.. the thought that you would discredit this game because its graphics dont scale to skyrim is sad. Its voxel based, any voxel based game is going to be "boxy" example, cube world. Its the nature of voxel.

Im excited about the physics system they have, real time structural integrity will result in players actually needing to know how to build
