Why are people praising this game and calling it rpg? It's basically a text simulator, 0 combat just talking.

I don't trust review sites anymore. Where my simple isometric hack n slash at?

never heard of it

Make your own game

It's like Diablo except it doesn't have dungeons, demons, items, combat, spells, sojs, theorycrafting, pvp, a simple story, cool cinematics or anything to do with rpg or being a good game. Apart from that it's identical.

I loved shadows of amn when I was a kid, I'll give iwd2ee a try

So is it basically zomboid with no gameplay
Thats what it looks like

Project zomboid has potential to be great but the combat is janky af also the story is basically non existent not much in terms of quests or npcs just pure survival/building simulator.

I want to be able to run into a horde of zombies with my weapon and not having it break after a few. Fire arms become unusable or jammed after only about 7-8 magazines like who designed this shit. It's not like you can just can tp into town and repair all weapons with a single button. Each weapon and armor needs painstakingly long searching and crafting materials just to repair them.

I understand it adds a challenge to the game but having to repair a lead pipe after 20 - 30 hits is garbage game design.

Agreed
I even find it annoying having to tp and repair in town with melee weapons or javelins in d2r so i play casters lol

Imagine having your weapon break after clearing one dungeon and only way to repair it is in the cube with specific runes and gems. Fuck that shit d2 would be trash and I would have saved 5 years of my life (probably)
