Which is probably why I gave this a miss when it was first released, only picking it up when it was released on PS Plus.
(Yes, I know the Freakers are never called Zombies but, let's face it, that's what they really are).
I have to say that, while slow starting, the story in this open world game was actually quite enjoyable, with Sam Witwer doing a particularly fine job as the protaganist Deacon St John, the former outlaw biker who you play as in this post apocalyptic world.
Freaker horde missions, though? Not a fan.
(I preferred sneaking around, or the occasional gunfight)

By Lucy A. Snyder
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Humanity has been irrevocably changed by a virus that radically alters its victims...yet life goes on.
Three women must band together to try to survive. Erin and Savannah are helping usher in the new world, while Mareva has been burdened with a very special task ― one she's too horrified to even acknowledge.
This is absolutely brilliant I didn’t want to put it down. It’s so well written. Following a the covid pandemic the world gets thrown into another apocalyptic virus. This is a fantastic comic horror/end of days novel. It is graphic so please read any trigger warnings. I’m so glad I found this author her writing style is definitely something I want to read more of!

While I'm not usually averse to a bit of fantasy every now and then, I have to say: I found this one to be hard going. Despite a promising start, I found it to become somewhat overblown and drawn out and just not that engaging: I never really connected with any of the characters or the situations they faced.
There were times, even, when I was tempted to abandon it altogether / skip chapters, but stuck at it out of sheer bloody-mindedness rather than due to any interest in the story
I'm sorry to say so, but I doubt I'll pick up the second in the series. :(
I was looking forward to a murder mystery style book with nuclear apocalyptic themes as both of those are things I find very interesting- but it was more like a bored man's diary where he constantly inserts subtle brags about how much of a ladies man he is or how strong of a leader he is (which he isn't. He rarely ever took charge in a situation.) The main character is unlikable.
You spend the whole book telling yourself that 'anytime now, something is going to happen', and it's not until the last 10 pages or so that anything does.
And the ending... The reveal about who was the actual killer... I'm sorry, but: What the f*ck.
