I feel like we still haven't hit the peak of survival gaming yet.Most survival games are centered around the individual experience of a dude, usually a white guy, arming himself to the teeth and progress is measured by how easily they can kill.I'd like a game that has a more holistic and community context. Yes, defending yourself is important, but so is housing, a power grid, water, schools, manufacturing etc. You know, community building.I don't know of a game that goes that far with it.

@uranther @Are0h Yeah that’s pretty much what FO4 on survival mode is.

@uranther If Bethesda actually thought out a story, put as much effort into community building as they did weapon crafting and the game engine was stable? Maybe.

Like being able to mow down dozens of zombies in seconds is cool and all, but that's not going to help me build a sustainable farm.Instead of having missions to get more guns, imagine how cool it would be to have to go on missions to recruit specialists to address specific needs in your growing community.Don't have proper plumbing? Go find a civil engineer. Having trouble building sustainable housing. Trade grain with another community to have their architect teach you.That would be LIT.
