Alright, upon writing this review I have 1546 hours in DayZ. I have played this game since 2014, and man, it has come a long way since then.

This game can be a very unforgiving experience to new players, as mechanics are a bit difficult to get used to, as well as the fact that the in-game environment and player-base can be rather harsh. Some players might kill you on sight, while others will avoid you. If you're lucky then maybe you can get some decent interaction with other players. This is where the game gets interesting. You might encounter a random player who is willing to team up with you, or travel with you. You'll have moments of incredible fun with this person due to the nature of the game, as well as the player-base and how they can interact with you. You might find yourself playing with this person more and more and become friends with this person. You'll travel the map and feel like your on an adventure, like it's you and this person versus the world (which it quite literally is).

This is why I have 1546 hours on DayZ, because of moments like these. The experiences you'll have in DayZ are truly some of the best memories you'll make in video games. I know that sometimes it might feel like no player wants to interact with you, but that's really part of the game. It's a way for some players to survive. But trust me, this game really offers a lot to those who are willing to get into it.

Thanks for reading my review, I hope you have a great day.
