Freezing Point (Campaign + Survival)

Never disappointed. 5/5.
I will have to agree with everyone saying it's short. However, with a premise like Freezing Point's, I don't see any reason for the campaign/storyline to be longer than expected. The whole "what's in this mansion? Oh, apparently a secret laboratory - we shouldn't be here, let's leave" trope is enough without it being confusing (even if it's cliché). The snow alone is enough to give me a fresh breath of air because barely anyone does snow-themed maps.

Gameplay is what you'd expect from a L4D2 campaign. The horde isn't a bothersome to deal with even on Expert and they're relatively easy to take out due to the small corridors and choke points (friendly fire will be very prominent however so beware). The SI is a bit challenging, especially Boomers, given how most contact tend to be really close (again because of the setting of the mansion). Keep in mind to be very vigilant with Jockeys and Hunters as they can jump at you within any moment.

And speaking of the mansion, I will have to agree with that one person saying the whole layout is an eyesore. It makes sense though given what's underneath the whole property (which is pretty obvious at this point and needs no explanation). The house is no doubt only there as a "bottle cap" to cover what's really underneath. There's this one easter egg that I loved so much - I suppose we can start calling Coach "Darnell" now, eh?

The graffitis were also a fun addition. Most of them were hilarious, some were sad, and some were pretty questionable. I seriously wanna strangle whoever decided to scribble over that argument in that one safehouse. Does anyone have a full transcript of the whole exchange? I could make out a few words but I can't understand a single thing.

That said, from Time to Die to Freezing Point, Kyle never disappoints. A one-man team capable of making such amazing campaign? I can only imagine what you can bring should you have a populated team at your perusal. Kudos!!!

I just played it again and there's this one easter egg that completely made my jaw drop.

You guys remember Suicide Blitz 2? I think that's enough said.
