Depending on your perspective, The Day Before is either a huge disappointment, or precisely the game that you were expecting. Showcased as a sprawling, survival-driven MMO, the early access version plays more like an extraction shooter, and has so far confounded players owing to inaccessible servers, largely empty maps, and a variety of technical problems and bugs. Already one of the worst-reviewed games on Steam, The Day Before might be one of the most spectacular releases in history, a whirlwind cautionary tale of high hopes versus brutal reality. Amidst all the drama, one developer is creating a pseudo The Day Before 'remake,' which already includes melee combat - something missing from the real game's initial launch - and which offers a sharp parody of Fntastic's zombie shooter.
