Armor seems much less effective, archery seems a lot less OP from last time I played, the zombie AI seems to be a bit smarter and seem to circle around you more instead of running at you in a straight line, they also seem to avoid stepping into bushes, so its a good bit harder to use terrain to kill them, especially when there’s more than one. Overall the game seems to have become a bit more difficult, which is good. Can start in a house or a evac center now. The colored messages and combat improvements are a HUGE difference. I never knew I wanted them but now that i’ve experienced it I doubt I could ever play without them.
You have to actually look in books to find out what their contents are, so the days of entering a library and immediately knowing whats inside of every book and how it improves your skills are gone, although I know most books by heart now. On a similar note, reading a book in shady lightning is still possible, but slower.
