Early Access Review
DayZ has had a long history. Dean Hall made it well-known in ArmA 2, with his DayZ mod, and finally achieved a standalone version of the game, which he worked on it for a little while longer. DayZ has, since standalone, always been known as that "buggy", "incapable of being played", or even "slow developed" game. DayZ has been in alpha for years now, and has a slow development. It has a wide-variety of features that you will never see in these games such as H1z1, or perhaps even Miscreated. It focuses its development into the small details, and barely the big details, but recognizes when big details are needed, (.60 update).

So, What's the point of this review?

DayZ is a amazing, fun to play game. It is not boring, it is not out of date, and it is not a failure.
To this day, after SEVERAL years of slow-development, players CONTINUE to experience FUN and AMAZING events within this game, which they will never forget.

Me? I'll always remember, the time when I was King of Berezino, having tribal-like warfare with Bows & Spears, unfortunately meeting my end.
I'll always remember, when I ran my own empire, capturing players of DayZ and forcing them to loot-cycle the Berezino Police Station, as a slave of mine.
I'll always remember, the people I have met, the people who I betrayed, the people who made me laugh, and of course overall, the people who made this game what it is.

So, is it worth the buy?
Yes it is.

Then fuck off and stop following the game.

10 Hours is enough to figure out how unplayable this cancerous tumor called 'DayZ' is. Enough to see flying animals, teleporting zombies, items flying mid-screen and axes not registering any hits. Though having last played the game more then a year ago, I can still see that these problems still exist in 2016 and they are not going away anytime soon(streams&vidoes etc.). I'd rather not waste anymore seconds of my precious life, letting the cancer of the century called DayZ infect me; giving me a painful death. I'd also rather not waste any more of my breath trying to reason with a DayZ fanboy, it's the same thing as using medical treatment on a dead corpse.

No thanks, you have 10 hours on DayZ, you haven't given the game a single chance.

Steam sucks more than DayZ
