Back 4 Blood (PS5) £15 Delivered @ AO - UK Mainland

Decent graphics, shame the gameplay is so hollow. Literally nothing to do after doing the very short campaign. Quite embarrassing really considering it doesn't even have a horde type mode from LFD1 and 2.

I got it free on gamepass and honestly would have felt ripped off if I'd have paid anywhere near full price for it.

Couldn't get to grips with this at all , much prefer world war z

Average completion time 11 hours. Once you've done the campaign there's pretty much nothing else to do. Like I said...hollow game.

I've found completely the opposite, and I'm pretty sure you've not played with the card system in the game in 11 hours as you can't have unlocked many of them with just 11 hours play. For instance, there's absolutely no way you've completed the game on Veteran or Nightmare if you've only got 11 hours play, as even people with 30+ hours play with a back deck wouldn't be able to do it.

I've been playing it most days since it's been released. The card system allows you to tweak your characters in many different ways and makes playing with different firearms really fun. I've gone from being a brawler with Holly or Evangello to being a sniper with Jim or Walker. The characters as they stand are pretty much the same with only one tweak per character, but when you add in the card system you can make a really good deck which makes play through really fun and removes the tricky elements of the harder settings.

Have you played with the card system and gone through the harder difficulties? This is where the fun really starts!

I can totally understand your PoV if you've played it on Novice and just gone through the missions though, as that's a tiny part of the game.

Worth a few playthroughs but not much replayability as there's a limited number of levels which don't change too much in terms of objectives/mechanics/environments (the corruption cards change gameplay abit),only one other mode that is completely pointless and a mess, no versus pvp campaign mode and one of the main things that made l4d 2 so good was that on PC you had modding support adding tons of new content which is not present on B4B. The only replayability comes if you're that type of person that enjoys limited content in return of having to grind to unlock cards and skins.

That does seem quite short to be fair.

You didn't get it "free on Game Pass". Besides that I totally agree that the gameplay is hollow.
