Twin saga private server 20203/7/2024 Is that a good thing or a bad thing that EG7 has decided to return to the sandbox survival, the part of the game that Daybreak, under the very same senior management team, shut down? It even says at the top of the chart “sandbox suvival” and not “battle royale.” The battle royale part was the popular bit and that is, once again, NOT what they’re going after. The funny bit is that the people watching that video presentation were pretty jazzed about the H1Z1 announcement, but were clearly not aware of the difference between the battle royale and survival halves of the game. I am certainly more likely to go play Just Survive than the battle royale version of the game, which is technically still available both on PC and PlayStation 4. No! They want to bring back the survival part of the game that was split off and renamed Just Survive way back when, then shut down in 2018, making its name especially ironic, it being the only part of the game that did not, in fact, just survive.īut I am totally fine with this. The efforts have been underwhelming to say the least. I mean, there is a whole hour long Death of a Game video about this amazing series of half hearted moves. I mean, Daybreak tried everything… if you define “everything” as renaming the game every so often and to handing it off to NanWorks for some rando to run, only to have it handed back to them. In fact, I have long harbored a suspicion that the EG7 plan for H1Z1 was to close their eyes tight and wish as hard as they could that H1Z1 would simply miracle itself back to its brief position of market dominance and popularity, which was back in 20, and become the Queen of the Battle Royale genre once more. It was, after all, a big announcement a couple years back that they were working on getting the build system for the app working again. Not as valuable as EverQuest, which Ji Ham declared as their most valuable, but still always on the list.Īnd the reason I have been rather dismissive of this is because, for all of that talk, they haven’t done thing one with H1Z1. I have mocked and chided EG7 and Daybreak since the acquisition because they have consistently and repeatedly highlighted H1Z1 as one of their most valuable first party properties, something they own the rights to.
