And then the mods, sweet Jesus the mods. I genuinely have like 100 or more and it works so well. The game almost works like a platform, you can basically turn it in to whatever you want there's even an Alien vs Predator mod which is admittedly a little buggy but still fun and hard as hell.
Visually the game doesn't look like much but honestly that kinda helps me attach myself to the little stories that form in it even more.
Currently I'm doing a run where my main Pawn is an Immortal from the Highlander Immortal mod. Which means that she comes back from death unless she loses her head and becomes more powerful when she kills X amount of immortals, up until being an Apex Immortal who heals wounds almost instantly. She and her Immortal Donkey must become Gods together.
Really though it's an insane game with so many options. You can be a violent drug baron, you can run a prison colony, you can be a settlement of crazy cannibals, you can collect a growing number of user-made special polar bears with stupid designs and broken abilities or you can turn it in to a crazy hardcore survival game where you might have to sacrifice peoples limbs just for a day of food.
It can basically be whatever you want and new mods come out all the time, there's even Lord of the Rings, Mass Effect, Warhammer 40K and Elder Scrolls ones. Amazing.
