Oh this game is sooooo good and im soooooo bloated like the bloater, I could puke and fart for days... Im sooooo gassy, and ellis is such a cutie!
Absolutely untimely and fantastic. There's basically nothing that can be said about it that hasn't already. It's just the BEST co-op zombie shooter. There's no competition. There's very much a reason why this game's community is still VERY MUCH ACTIVE to this day, the game is just THAT good.
I probably have another 500 hours of total playtime in Left 4 Dead 2 on my old Steam account alone. In fact, this game was the reason I registered on Steam in the first place, after already spending who knows how many hours playing the cracked version with friends over LAN, or even solo. For some time, it was literally the only legit game I owned lol. And I don’t even know what makes me write a review almost 20 years later. Let it just exist here. I absolutely understand why people still play this game today. So many clones released over the years either disgusted me immediately, or made me like them first only to break my heart later. I genuinely don’t understand how so many developers manage to be either too stupid, lazy, or greedy to surpass such a simple formula, or at least deliver something on the same level. Valve products keep winning simply by existing, while the competition keeps shooting itself in the foot over and over again.
