Unfortunately, most survival games fall into the same trap of connecting the game's accelerated time frame to hunger and thirst. What this means is that you then need to not just constantly eat and drink, but also eat and drink in obscenely large amounts. No one needs to eat a buffet's worth of food every five minutes, but in a survival game that seems to be the case. It's incredibly annoying because having to do nothing but eat and drink isn't entertaining.
I was disapointed Scum didn't make this list as it's the only "modern" game not using some 2d interface that nails metabolism (hunger/thirst)
It has a very realistic timeframe for the length of time it takes for your muscle and fat reserves to eat away and accompanying fatigue/side affects.
atm it can be a little to easy to survive like there are so many sources of food even if you avoid towns and live solely off the land with bugs, wild plants, mushrooms, fish, hunting
so that might be why it wasn't here but imo it's silly testing your might in a survival game by dieing to hunger every 5 minutes its like testing your flying capibility by flying in ace combat...
Scum is still in development/early access but it nails the survival genre basics better then any and the devs have been pumping away at it consitantly.
it's not perfect it has a long way to go but imo it is stronger then many of the titles that made this list
Really can't wait for the medical system to be complete to be the icing ontop of the survival systems.
It may have been left out due to Project Zomboid being the hot Zombie survival game atm
I love PZ but it falls into the same trope of accelerated thirst/hunger deaths.
@@spectac1 In DayZ you do not have to eat much
@@Medic_Medulla scum is great
@@silaswalgenbach465 LMAO Ive played hundred of hours of DayZ and you have to eat mountains of certain foods or fill yourself up till you only eat slightly ridiculous amounts. I get that steaks/fat fill you up more, but theres also the cold hard fact that apples in real life fill you up and your not gonnna sit there and eat twelve apples and still be hungry. The nutrition system in DayZ is honestly jank as fuck.
@@carpelunam Okay. But nevertheless it is never comparable to the amount of food you have to eat in Stranded Deep or The Forest (I can say it from my experience). So for me DayZ is not a food game like SD or TF.
The Long Dark is the most intense survival experience i ever had! It is absolutely fantastic, and i definitely recommend for everyone who likes survival games!
It's fun at first with the story but then becomes boring as hell
The Long Dark is brutal, no joke.
@@DEATHBYJOKES01 Ive been playing The long dark since 2018 and still havnt played through the story. I started the first episode years ago but got bored with it. Back to interloper I went
I was really enjoying it until up to episode 3 i believe where you have to run back and forth across the map rescuing the survivors, it gets absolutely brutal and i just havent touched the game in a while
I enjoyed the Long dark but playing in the winter is just too cold...lol...
The Long Dark has been a favorite of mine since it was in beta, and it has changed a lot over the years with more challenges and survival options. It does an excellent job giving you the freedom to choose where/how to survive without being a world/building base game. Absolutely my favorite game to play on a cold winter day with a warm blanket!
Yea Good game that like how you can skip time to sit out a storm or just sleep if your OK for supplies.
By far one of my favorites as well. It's been nice for the new chapters too.
The Long Dark is absolutely in a class of it's own - you have to pay close attention to the color of the sky the quiet is all-consuming. It's visually amazing.
It's too hard, I can barely scavenge some twigs without getting lost the wolves always get me, I can't hit the rabbits with my rocks I wanna go home.
Ayy my uncle is a developer for that game
i cant find it on play store
Don’t Starve is amazing and I’m glad it got mentioned. Awesome art style, humorous, and has a big learning curve.
Kingdom Come Deliverance on Hardcore mode with all the negative perks on, perfect combination between a medieval simulator a survival game and a Rpg without beign frustrating, one of my favorite games of all time.
facts I got that game on sale for like 15 bucks with all the dlcs and it's definitely one of the most frustrating rpgs I've played.
hey legate lanius please don't have me nailed to the walls of hoover dam my body facing west so i can watch my world die. also please do not cover me in pitch set me on fire and toss me into the grand canyon
@@themanjambam lmao it’s frustrating but it’s also really really really good…
The two aren’t related, but bizarrely it almost feels like Morrowind in a way.
You can get totally wrecked by stumbling into a simple bandit camp unprepared 😂
They should add the possiblity to fake papers, become noble and rule the lands!
@@sexprof1 yoooo that would be sweet
The forest was my first “survival” game I think. I had no clue what to do and I was terrified 99.9% of the time. Since then I’ve played a lot of survival games, I’m horrible at all of them.
I have completed it, awesome game
😂😂😂
@@jeomaislekker I hope the sequel is at least just as good
@@jeomaislekker Ikr, I finished the story with a bunch of friends. Meanwhile, playing single player actually made me an ultimate survivor on hard survival with at least 70 strength and 100 agility. I was able to take on groups of cannibals back to back as well as mutated enemies on my own. Jumping from trees to trees, managed to memorize cannibal routes and caves. Very fun and challenging game.
I love how sincere and straight to the point your comment is lol. Absolutely hilarious
The long dark is a game that I’ve enjoyed more and more over the years. Love that game
Update and new areas should be out soon
Just wish they'd hurry up and finish it lol.
@@rippler2k3 It's not that easy.
Man, the Long Dark is such a gem. The world is beautiful, melancholic, and cold - and the player is just scrabbling to keep warm, like a mouse in a snowcovered log.
I spent 262h on project zomboid a couple of years ago and jumped back in last week - boy, oh, boy am I sucked in again. Amazing game
I’ve only had it for 4 days and already have 80+ hours in. This game is crazy addicting
I barely had it for a week and a half, now I can't put it down it has become my 2nd life, best I've lasted is 11 days and it was due to a car accident 🤣
Bought it a few weeks ago and I can't stop playing it
@xlOrbzlx haha indeed you do!
@@BuckMarley did you sleep for 16 hours in 4 days?
The Forest is one of the few survival games I actually really enjoyed..it wasn’t overly complicated to create things, and you weren’t constantly bombarded with little things that threaten your health..u were able to just worry about the basics, the cannibal mutants and it had an interesting storyline. So that was good enough for me👍 great vid fellas
I agréé 💯 ! Tired of those excel file game 😁
Looking forward to Sons of the Forest! Fun fact: The Forest takes place on a peninsula, not an island.
It’s on sale now for £5.99 on PSN and has been in my wish list for a while… maybe it’s time to jump into it as always looked interesting
LOSTBHOY actually that’s where I bought as well a couple months ago..it’s definitely worth it. Especially at that price
@@pickford3152 I suppose any game is worth a try at that price, not sure why I’ve been putting it off, maybe just my big backlog. But you know what, I’m gonna go download it now. Glad to hear you enjoy it mate 👍🏻👍🏻
Unreal World is epic. I remember back in late 1990 or early 2000 when me and my brother first bought that game straight from the developer. The developer sent a floppy disk via mail. I'm so glad that the game is in Steam after all these years!
A great survival game although quite hard to master.
Great list of games, most of them I played and loved, especially Medieval Dynasty, Rimworld and Project Zomboid. One I didn't know about was the UnReal World - so thanks for that!
Tried and fell in love with Project Zomboid several years back. Finally got a PC to game on again last year, and was so stoked to see how far it's come. Such a fun game.
I'm about 40 hours in and totally sucked in. Its amazing
@@chrisredfield6274I’ve clocked 104 hours on project zomboid and I got it a couple weeks ago when I built my first pc, amazing game with even more amazing mods
I really love this game but here games are so expensive so we forced to use cracked games 💔
How steep is the learning curve?
@@Lucas-vd2gx very steep if you’re like me who’s never played a realistic survival game
Survival games will always be fascinating to me, they kinda scratch some deep ancient instincts we all carry within.
the one of "i am not dying today!"
such a weird way to word that
@@flymoolahman2763 I hope my point still gets across. I'm decent at english, but it's not my native language, so I can slip up sometimes.
Your meaning was clear and stated poetically. Ignore that person. Either their English is terrible or they need to beef up their reading comprehension.
Yeah, those games are like fireflies that you go searching in the morning mist wearing hope and anxiety.
Nice to see Rimworld be talked about. I will say, if you want challenge use Randy Random or Cassandra Classic at the hardest difficulty and let the bullets fly. Gets even better with mods.
Thanks for that overview. Loved the narration for its calm and easily understandable quality.
Consider displaying the game title you are talking about for a few seconds in future similar projects.
Hopping into the forest without knowing about the mutants beforehand was terrifying, they rolled up to me and friend’s little fort one night , we were chilling inside only to hear the haunting noises they make and being scared to even look outside.
We went looking for the gun parts right after that encounter 😅
thats the awesome part of games.
That's always the best part. Discoverying shi for the first time. Once u get good they become a joke. Just like in Ark exploring the caves with the homies was scary asf for the first time
Which game?
@@devang9446 The Forest
On my first night, I was in my tree house just chillin when i hear random laughin and grunts all of a sudden. I thought it was my neighbor so I removed my headphones. I waited for a bit, it was quiet, so I put it back on. When I got back in the game mfkers were standing near the bottom of my tree, just staring at me. It was hella stress
Don't Starve is no joke, the game gets really hard really quick for newcomers. Basically you learn as you play and almost everytime you reach a point that you never have before, something you can't expect happens and you die. And that makes it so rewarding when you do prepare for these events the next time you play and survive them. Also The Flame In The Flood is a really amazing game and in my experience quite difficult as well.
The plot twist tho in Green Hell
The old 2000s zombie shooter is an honourable mention
@@tristanlabuschagne3278 Yeah i know that game. It's the one with the isometric view right ? There's one with Aliens as well those 2 are some of my childhood games. Though i think they're more towards Action than survival.
I think I have 300 hours on that game lol it’s pretty cool
@AleDrGaze SPD To play. To survive 100 days ? No. %99 of new players don't see the end of winter in their first couple playthroughs.
Empyrion is my all time favorite survival game. People never seen to mention it. It is one of those hidden gems. Subnautica is also amazing, mainly in VR.
So glad you went with the long dark! That game is so amazing
Kenshi is also a really good shout, as the difficulty ramps up once you have to essentially micro manage a whole platoon of characters
Ah yes, definitely a banger
Glad someone mentioned it. Really great game albeit a clunky engine. Hyped for Kenshi 2
@@TheMyleyD I've been out of the loop about that for a while, any news about the new game?
Dude, in The Long Dark you have to move around to gather limited supplies at first, but you failed to mention that your character LEARNS to make all his own supplies from the environment as you go…
You eventually craft and fix clothes with animal parts, cook the food you hunted, boil your herbal remedies, and make your own bow from sticks and bird feathers and whatnot…
It’s not just that you stay at a location until the location runs out of supplies and move on, you’re snowballing in knowledge the entire time until you’re a bonafide wild man.
Glad you covered it but it’s more in depth and has much more long-term playability than I feel was implied.
Isn't Long Dark about thriving instead of surviving? Been wanting to play it
@@soulknife20 I wouldn’t say you feel like you’re thriving, but you feel like you’re mastering nature…
I never got to where I felt comfortable or secure.
I never felt like Tarzan.
It always felt like one mistake would cost me dearly, it usually didn’t, but the game is good at making you feel oppressed that way.
Maybe it’s the bleak weather, give it a shot, it’s complex but damn good.
For the fist time in my live a watch a game list video that is so good like that, thanks man
Great video, I love suvival games and added one that you mentioned that i hadn't heard about yet on my wishlist (Unreal World). I would also like to recommend mentioning 'Dead in Vinland'. I really really liked that game as well. Turn based survival with your family, but damn, it's hard!
This War of Mine was such a kick in the head when I first got it, outstanding game.
I bought it thinking it would lighten up with a happy ending. I'm so glad it didn't. The happy ending is that you effing survive. The first time I couldn't move a character because they were "broken", absolutely floored me. Fantastic game!
This game is underrated as hell. I wish they will come out with new episodes or a remake with immersive graphics
This game whopped my ass. Every time. I never survived.
"Sheltered" is probably my favourite survival game. I highly recommend it to anyone. It's about a family trying to survive in a bunker.
Underrated gem
Survival games are my favorite genre. This video was so useful, I took notes.
The Forest is such a beautiful game. The single player is very challenging and surprisingly terrifying cause of the amount of enemies you can encounter at least twice a day. The multiplayer co-op experience with friends is so fun. You get to uncover the secrets and the story behind the island you are stuck in, and do a lot of things to grow and survive. I'm excited for Sons of the Forest.
I have been addicted to Project Zomboid. Such a great game. it is a brutal one that takes some learning but well well worth it.
Another cool thing about the long dark is the sound design is sooo good and really has kind of an ASMR feel to lots of stuff. Very satisfying
Frost punk is definitely my favorite, I've spent many countless hours paying it. The story is so intriguing and it has many scenarios that are somewhat connected together.
I absolutely love the freedom this game gives you, it puts you under a lot of pressure being responsible for a large amount of people that just keep going up.
you got to organize your people by making Laws and keep their hope up while trying to make sure they are warm and have enough food, you also need to research many new technologies and keep up to date as resources are scarce and you can’t get enough without advanced technologies.
Not to mention your interactions with the outer world reying to understand what caused the ice age. I don’t want to spoil the game but if you’re a lover of survival games, city building games (or both!) you NEED to try this one out
Frost Punk is very addictive and fun. I enjoyed playing this game so much. It makes you wonder if one day the world would end up this way, and this would be the way people survive and how they would live. It offers challenges and rewarding moments when you end a day on a good note. But damn when you start to struggle and fall behind, it’s very punishing and troublesome to come back from any mistakes you make. It’s one of those games you need to make every decision correctly, or you’ll suffer from it further down the play through
Was really happy that you guys mentioned The Long Dark. Really one of the best Survival Experiences out there. Definitely one to try.
Yeah, it's an underated game!! I love it!!
Glad he mentioned it but he kind of sold it short.
Forgot to mention you can craft your own clothes and weapons and stuff from plants and animals, as you learn about the environment.
and the story mode has the voice actors of Shepard and FemShep.
They hooked me with that sweet intro backed by First Aid Kit.
@@The.Nasty. Not only can you, but as time goes on and everything you find gets used and decays, you absolutely have to craft your own clothes and weapons to get to 500 days
I loved playing Ancestors. The fun mainly comes from the exploration and developing new skills, so its really only great the first time around. It is worth a play if you've ever wanted to be an ape swinging through trees, or you're fascinated by anthropology.
Seems pretty damn cool!
Same. It was one of the best gaming experiences I ever had, even though the game is far from being perfect. I wish I could play it for the first time again.
Absolutely loved this game.
Where do you download it from
Good to see "This War of Mine" in number 2, definitely loved that game. Well-deserved.
The Long Dark is an absolute MUST for survival gamers. It can be incredibly unforgiving but it is well worth the struggle. Green Hell just behind it for the constant survival factor and sheer experience of the jungle. I've personally been with TLD since 2014 and it's come a long way.
Thanks i don't like being fed which political organization to support.
Do you know when season 5 of wintermute is coming?
Few games have emotionally rocked me as much as This War of Mine, and the fact that they have a pure charity-DLC is just... The whole thing is a testament to the story telling potential of the video game medium. HIGHLY RECOMMEND it!
I recently re-played it and it's just as good the second time! You really feel connected to your survivors and it really makes you try to do everything right to ensure the survival of each one.
Changed my outlook on war.
I was so worried that they were going to forget The Long Dark…I was not disappointed. 😁 Absolutely in LOVE with TLD.
I had the same worry. I would've unsubscribed had they not at least mentioned TLD. I'm also glad they gave Frostpunk an honorable mention :)
@@horizonzeromom haha! DEFINITELY
11
Huge fan of The Forest. Playing with 7 other friends, exploration and trying to figure out the backstory was so fun. Can't wait until Sons of the Forest.
The Long Dark can be really unforgiving on higher difficulties. I started playing one of the challenge scenarios, and couldn't get out of the starting region, because there was barely any loot to take, I had only basic clothes on me, and there were wolves everywhere! But I love the game anyway, it's a lot of fun and the atmosphere just gives you chills at times.
Green Hell was fun too, though it took me a while to get used to. The campaign was slightly underwhelming, but I'm actually more glad I got the bad ending.
Don't Starve is cool, but hard. Definitely something for Tim Burton fans, I think.
The rest, I know of (almost all of them), but either didn't play, or didn't care for. Another couple of survival sims you've missed (deliberately or not) are:
1. "7 days to die", a zombie-survival. Yeah, it's unrealistic, but can be challenging.
2. "Stranded Deep". This one's more realistic, though some things like animal behaviours are stretched to make a challenge, and certain things can feel arcady.
Both are still in development though, so maybe that's why you didn't include them?
In the Long Dark, can you climb trees? Set up a house in the trees.?
@@irvinnorris7041 no to both. In fact, verticality in TLD is problematic, because you can hurt yourself by falling from even smaller heights. This is explained as your character having a heavy backpack and several layers of clothes, but I'm not buying it. And tree houses are a bad idea, because of the wind. There's actually little point in having player-built shelter, because of all the pre-existing buildings you can inhabit.
You can build treehouses in Green Hell as per one of the latest updates. And you can climb palm trees in Stranded Deep, to pick coconuts.
The long dark was my first ever game on steam with a potato pc. Enjoyed playing it, loved the art style. Deserves much more love!
Any tips for a fellow canadian?
What were the specs of ur potato pc? And how many frames did you get?
@@davidb.6790 Not really, I think it warrants a blind play through. However, what I would tell you is don't spend too much time preparing and don't be afraid to start a new game. Make sure to read the exact objectives and do side missions.
@@narindersingh9802 don't remember exactly, but 4 gb ram, intel integrated graphics and i5 7th gen. At low, I got decent atleast 30 fps (don't remember exactly so just telling lowest I think I would have gotten).
@@mahimnavyas1928 any game mode/zone? Thanks you're a mate
Awesome to see some love for Rimworld, a game I have over 300hrs in and never made it close to saving them all, sooo much fun
Just loving this channel for years now! Keep it up!!
I'm glad that you mentioned Frost Punk, one of the best survival games I've ever played.
This War of Mine: The Little Ones is one of my all time favorite games.
I love that game. Hope they make a 2nd one
Hey here's a tip now I don't know if this works for you guys, so if you wear and equip both helmet and the body armor your hp doesn't decrease and you become invincible.
@@dakotasteele8546 You and me both. I go back to it pretty regularly.
The long dark is single handedly the best game I have ever played. The atmosphere is incredibly unique and the mechanics are very satisfying. Such an incredible development
You should just try hiking if you like walking simulators
@@lancehandy6648 I love hikes! But I don’t get snowy, wolf-filled, incredibly-scored ones where I live ☺️
@@GeckoMena4433 wait…. So if there was a wolf-filled hike you’d go on it? Lmao I’m pretty sure you could just go on a hike in the snow and leave out the wolves. Nobody WILLINGLY wants to fight wolves
If walking simulators are your thing then I advise you go on hiking to the mountains I hear it's more realistic and it miles ahead of the Long Dark
I'm a kickstarter...the best single player you have ever played...so, maybe you know what wintermute means?!
Long dark is an unfinished game.
I've been playing the Long Dark since early access and it's fantastic! The changes they've made, the additions, the challenge is great. I can't wait to see what hinterland does from hete
I just started playing a few months ago, but I am in deep! It's definitely engrossing
I am so happy to see that Project zomboid is getting the love it deserves recently!
I started it few minutes ago...died after 10 minutes 😂
Most realistic game ever once you die...you die
@UCV-jyyGasKVdf05iXQ548QA I'll definitely be doing that.
@@sai-no1438 yo will die......a lot...... like A LOT, but keep learning and growing and before long youll have a 3 month character stacked to the brim with guns, food, ammo, and loot, just to get bitten because you didnt check around a corner. amazing game
I still remember when I got bit for the first time. A zombie bit my groin from the back.
@@fatdave124 I see how painful it could get 😂
Love to see that The Long Dark made it to #1 on this list. I've been playing it for years. Great list, guys.
RimWord is amazing. Something notorious about its gameplay is that you configure the AI of your colony residents. It's really hard to learn to play, but when you master it, you gonna have in your hands the best survival game entirely made by a single person. I played for so long that I managed to build a spaceship and return home - the end game.
The Forest will always be in my top favorite games of all time. It truly is the only "horror" game that still scares me each and every time I play. Just hearing those eerie laughs at night, and not knowing where they are coming from is terrifying.
I played Frostpunk and it is so tense. Just when you feel it’s getting easy, the game drops a huge problem on you and keeps getting harder.
I love FrostPunk
I remember the very first time that discontent maxed out on me, felt so helpless
Frostpunk is brutal. Essentially that's what makes the game so good. Without the constant feeling of dread, hopelessness and futility, it would just be another ordinary survival sim.
@@dankety81 yeah I totally get what you mean. Its that constant feeling of tension that makes you feel that despair. The sound cues are very distinct and adds to the overall feel of the game. Makes me want to play it again
Been playing the Long Dark for about 5 or 6 years and never survived more than 21 in game days.
My longest save I got real cocky I died by stepping in a puddle while the Northern Lights were going on and was electrocuted.......never even knew that mechanic was in the game
No shit??? I didn’t know that but I’ll learn from your pain.
Holy sh*t I've played the long dark for at least 200hours, and I never discovered that mechanic!
This game is so deep and fleshed out!
This is where Wintermute comes in. That puddle probably has live wires in it.
Amazing list of games I can base my own upon. We need more videos like this
Fun fact: I had some friends in high school who worked on the Alpha for The Long Dark. It made me really happy seeing them be a part of creating a really good survival game
That's so dope! How's your day goin silly umpa lumpa
Love to see that Green Hell & Ancestors are getting the recognition they deserve! Absolutely Amazing games 👏🏽👏🏽
Green hell is so freacking hard
@@rizz184 it's really hard at the beggining but once you get the hang of it is actually quite easy to survive
@@rizz184 the droughts are the worst
The point of green hell is constantly dealing with infections, diseases, and parasites in your body that you acquire in a variety of ways all the time. It's more like a frustration simulator. But yes, is the most realistic survival out there and the massage is: It's impossible to survive in the Amazon rainforest.
Green hell is arguably the most unforgiving survival game I've ever played. Great fun too
I think that title goes to The Long Dark, tbh
I’ve been heavy playing Medieval Dynasty and if you enjoy a first person perspective to city building and surviving then I highly recommend. Am excited for Wild West Dynasty which is hopefully coming soon
For those who haven’t played the long dark it’s free on Xbox gamepass and is amazing they just added a new chapter to the game like falcon said there’s a campaign but there’s also just a straight survival mode that can go on for as long as u can survive definitely give it a try 5/5⭐️ for me
I love "This War of Mine", I originally played it on PS4 and loved it so much that I got the PC and mobile versions as well. I'm hoping that there'll be a sequel one of these days
Luckly the Bosnian war ended in 1995
@@stefanolunardelli9430 There could always be a Ukraine version. 😢
Long Dark makes any other survival look like a picnic
State of Decay and SoD2 is also a great game. Very complex, sometimes it feels like you need a master´s degree to know all the mechanics. They´ve been updating for the last few years and the latest difficulty "lethal" is unforgiven. Surviving 2 days is an accomplishment for me.
That moment in Kingdom Come: Deliverance when you’re newer to the game and you spent 4+ hours messing around by levelling up archery with the contests, run around the woods picking 300 herbs while gaining vitality etc.. only to try and jump over a random bush that magically flings you up and backward 15 feet in the air causing you to bleed… then you realize you don’t have a single bandage, you’re in the middle of nowhere, and you haven’t saved the game a single time in all those hours…
The fact that I didn’t uninstall instantly and powered through, eventually falling in love with so much about the game makes me feel like a true survivor.. oh and also a massive nerd but I’m cool with that🤣
I've had project Zomboid for about a week and a half and it's been the best. It's difficult but in a good way. The longest I've lasted is 11 days and I didn't go out by a horde, I died due to a car accident.
Giving the information of whether it's co-op or single player would be dope.
Haha the way you was beating that deer !
I kept hoping you'd have The Long Dark on here, and am so happy you made it number 1. I love that game so much.
So glad that This War of Mine made it to the list. It's a truly one of a kind experience.
Wonderful game. Especially with the newer Story Mode added in. It's all based off of the Siege of Sarajevo during the Slav conflicts in the early/mid 90s. I would read about it; it was a very interesting (and VERY dark) conflict with so many complexities to it. This War of Mine puts your right into a situation where it's like you're one of those people/families that had to deal with something like that and not know if or when the end of the siege would occur. Terrifying on a very real level, but such a gorgeous game in its own way...
its depressing
surprised to see the 11 bit games here but yes they are great. I started with the big hit Frostpunk (sequel coming out soon) but _This War of Mine_ is one of those unique games you keep coming back to every so often... a perfect blend of hard - and unforgiving - mechanics with casual playstyle, perfect for that 20 minute break. Enough variation in characters to make up your group and enough scenarios to play with them in, plus an expansion which intensifies the psychological perspective by making children - and their mechanics - part of the war survivor drama as well as 3 _Stories_ (campaigns) released as DLCs - I suggest getting the whole bundle, this game goes on sale often both on Steam and GOG. A few of the characters have unique traits that make a big difference, like a spacious backpack or the ability to make less noise, crucial for sneaking in to the most dangerous places in the game, and there are many. Very well paced and engaging gameplay - I stopped playing it late at night because I was getting paranoid that my own real house was getting broken in to while I was playing, lol.
Great tips on the list, definitely checking out Ancestors and The Long Dark, thanks!
Rimworld got me to use my old gaming pc again consistently for months. great game
the fact DayZ isn’t in the list has hurt me indefinitely. It’s soooo hard and so realistic
I JUST comment that and I’m upset to because day z gave inspiration to like 3 of the game son the list easy
PZ is just much better than DZ. The depth of the game is crazy, DZ feels really unfinished and the combat is just horrible haha
Not shititng on your game bro, just giving reasons for why they probably missed it off the list.
BlackRickGrimes is my tag we can only survive together
@UC6uWi5YW7KwvU-4PJe8XLyw Project Zomboid. I get it's style may not be for everyone, but the depth of survival and in game mechanics are unbelievable. Honestly bro, I can't recommend the game enough.
Because both are essentially Zombie survival games, that will be the reason Day Z is missing from the list mate
@@aaronfarricker1475 PZ is just not personally engaging enough for me and the highly stylised graphics definitely makes it harder to get into, i think it takes away from the tone. It definitely narrows down the audience and that’s why dayZ has a much larger player base. Plus it’s all online and never gets lonely
Awesome to see that Green Hell is getting bigger and bigger recognition. Truly gamer-satysfying title and what is even better, they constantly update it with new content. That is something that should be seen more often!
@DILLIGAF * lmao just because both games take place in the forest doesn't mean its a rip off and if it really was a rip off id say itss better than the forest
@DILLIGAF * the forest fantard right here crying over someone praising a game they like
@DILLIGAF * dude you're rambling a load of tosh. Green Hell is really good
Great list and video. Surviving Mars is a really good one too.
I love this! Definitely need to try out some of these games!
Ancestors was so amazing. I really enjoyed evolving to get better and I loved figuring things out like how to make a stick weapon. The only bad thing about the game is how long it takes to evolve. In the beginning it works well, but I already saw every biome in the game by the time I was halfway through the evolution line. It makes it very hard to finish the game.
That problem can probably be chalked up to the fact that I might have been "rushing" (rushing in quotations because I wasn't really rushing it. I was just trying to make my way towards new biomes to spice up the gameplay. I never really rushed this, but like I said, I was actively looking for new biomes.), so please, if you play the game, take your time. Explore everything. It'll help your evolution and it'll maximize your enjoyment
I will never forget a reviewer that complained about dying after leaving the game unpaused for over an hour
I really love this war of mine. Just the struggle alone of if this place has what i need or if its too dangerous and i might lose a player. All of that is just sooo rewarding when you get to the end of the game
The Long Dark, one of the first games I bought with my school allowance. Played it a lot just recently even though I bought it years ago. Just an awesome game
I love This War of Mine and The Forest, But damn Frostpunk is on a totally different level of Fun.
Nothing beats the feeling you get after beating the Game beyond 40 Days..
Glad to see the long dark at number 1, my personal favorite game and more people should experience it.
Nice to see Green Hell get some recognition, it’s my most played game on Steam. But yet again Subsistence gets completely ignored. The game is stunning, it has seasonal changes that do change how you have to play the game. It can be brutal but it is one of the most realistic looking survival games out there and more people should be checking it out.
You and i must have played different games, green hell was so boring and simple, once you realise how it all works its just a matter of moving between point of interests and then the game is over
@@lucasbennett7717 agreed, it was fun for a very short while, even on the hardest difficulty i feel like its as hard as play pilgrim in tld if not even easier aka no challange, if u like the building aspect of it just jump into the forest
Oh man, i really love see here Unreal World, thank you so much, nice video
Boy, am I glad I came here cause I ain’t heard of any of the games on this list. However, Green Hell and Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey look very interesting 💯. I may have to check those out
Why doesn’t anyone ever talk about 7 days to die? I love that game! Such a fun survival game. Not the most realistic but more realistic than some of these games.
Yeah im actually mad it didn’t get even a honoreable mention.
My favorite moment I had in that game was when I accidentally ate glass
I'm with you Kelby. I rate 7 days above The Forrest and Green Hell every day of the week
lol I literally just commented this too...definitely my favorite survival crafting game
Great game! It can be played on solo, but the best fun is with friends. You can tweak the difficulty to your liking and transform the map to your liking. Mechanics are also good, the fresh A20 and A20.1 is really a great step forward.
The Long Dark is my favorite game of all time. I have sunk a ridiculous amount of hours into it. This makes me happy.
Like you said, most games depicts war through the eyes of a soldier. Showing it through the eyes of a civilian is a perfect setting for survival genre.
I'm surprised there aren't more of them; I would definitely played a 3rd person one.
Omg I was thinking 'This War of Mine' the whole video, not thinking it was popular enough to show up on the list.. but goddamn that game changed my whole outlook on life and war. Such a fantastic title and I recommend it to anyone, seriously.
I was wondering if you guys could make the list number slides darker so when people are watching at night it doesn't blind you. All good if not, or you don't see this. Just feel like a "night mode" could be helpful to some people, myself included.
Erm turn your brightness down lol
@@Blnze if it's too low you can't see what's happening in the video. Just wondering if it would be possible on the condition it wasn't a major change.
@@Blnze bet ur comment made u feel really smart
@UCKVQTaUswYkq9W456BxiCRA no time, I have work.
I wish ancestors got more love. This is one of my favorite games of all time its sad to see it be so apparently divisive and go under the radar by so many
Green Hell looks awesome!! First time hearing of it. Looks like what I was hoping Stranded Deep was going to be. Minus all the parasites and such. Definitely gonna check it out.
Heh. Tokyo Jungle was one of my favorite survival games. Shame it only released on PS3 digital though (and one other platform I think?). Wayward is my all time favorite survival game. Highly recommend it. Especially for people that enjoy crafting games like Terraria.
Kinda surprised DayZ isnt on this list. That game has a huge learning curve and being based on ARMA its got a lot of super realistic qualities especially for a zombie game
true, WTF what about SCUM or DAYZ on this list? oh come on, there no gme more realistic than SCUM ever made...
Yeah, for a test of survival against many odds it's great. I play on multiple servers and I'll tell ya, dont nobody want to play such a buggy mess.
The long dark is such an amazing survival experience and I’m glad to see it as number one on this list. If you haven’t played it yet, I definitely recommend giving it a shot. It may not be the most realistic on the list, but you truly do feel like you’re in the world and the slow-paced methodical feel of the game is one of a kind.
@DILLIGAF * why?
@DILLIGAF * That's an opinion my friend, everyone has different tastes.
@DILLIGAF * looks and feel are the definition of an opinion. It's pretty simple. You can shit on it all you like, plenty of people enjoy it and like the art style. You don't have to like it, but understand that those are your opinions.
@DILLIGAF * This is literally an opinion. No one can say that its a fact that a game is shit. Thats like trying to say chocolate ice cream is the worst and thats a fact. How you feel about a game is your opinion, nothing more.
@DILLIGAF * some people may like that some people may not. Hence why it’s an opinion. I know some people who prefer the old school style games over your new high graphic games.
And the ice cream example still stands. One person could think that chocolate ice cream is shit, that’s an opinion not a fact.
You believing it’s a shit game is literally an opinion. It’s about preference. You may like this type of game or you may not, it’s your preference. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it a shit game, it makes it a game that you don’t like
Great list, but i missed Stranded Deep in it. It is a bit cluncky, but things like not having a map or the lack of water made it a challenge. It's a good game. The Long Dark is still the best imo, Hinterland Studios is awsome for expanding the main story for free, even though we had to wait a while for Wintermute.
I mean as a person that plays stranded deep with my gf i think its not up to par with this list. It needs way more work.
they also missed subsistence.
And Raft
I’ve owned stranded deep since it came out that games a huge ass joke
exactly what I was thinking. Has it's issues but survival is genuinely harf
How is Ark: Survival evolved not mentioned in this vid?!? This has all elements of surviving against the cold, heat, survive against dinosaurs and other players. You need to eat food, drink water, even heal yourself from illnesses! It's a sickk game for those wanting open world survival
Just because a game has a bunch of energy bars you have to constantly baby doesn't mean it's a realistic survival game. Ark isn't even close to realistic.
I'm really glad you covered frostpunk! It's one of my favorites!
Not really realating to the video, but to a comment during Neo: Scavenger, "The game almost feels like the world's most elaborate Choose Your Own Adventure book.".
I think I may have seen that book. Remember I was in a B. Dalton's, or Waldenbooks, in the mall, looking for a new book out, so, know it was 1986. This was during the heyday of the CYOA books.
I saw a book on the top shelf, it cost $100 by the sticker on it, and was the size of a dictionary.
You Are God.
Ancestors The Humankind Odyssey is simply one of the best games I've ever played. Yes it's a matter of opinion but I have never been so happy to get so frustrated learning a game. There is more in the series I have to get around to playing
yoo bro is it worth buying it, cuz i've been thinking about it since i first heard about this game but never was sure to do so
@@rigonkerqeli2631 yes
There's a series????
@@platonicbuu7454 thankss🥰
@@platonicbuu7454 No. Sorry that was me misspeaking. I mashed two comments together and didn't proof read myself.
Also, The Flame in the Flood is an incredible game that I highly recommend. It's a beautiful little story and challenging game.
Out of love to have seen State of decay on this list because in it you're basically trying to survive in a zombie apocalypse world and you're supporting your community by scavenging resources that require you to keep food certain health factors you have to monitor your people and make sure they're not losing their sanity as well as maintain a steady flow of necessities but you have to be cautious because areas will eventually be picked clean and you have to end up moving bases
Hi friend, I hope you have a good day 👋🏻
Keep up the good work. This video is great. You will definitely succeed. I hope to see you one day except for the big channels 👌🏻👍🏻
Glad to see The Long Dark at number one.. it’s something I keep going back to time and time again.. it’s the only constant on my console.. it’s truly exceptional
I have the same thing! Everything gets deleted after a while, but that game has been there since I bought my ps4
Same here. Amazing game!
