10 Incredible Video Games The Industry Will NEVER Do (And Why)

I feel like this concept is halfway there and has been since Left 4 Dead came out. You can play as special infected, you can play as Jason, the Xenomorph or the Predator.

Yet, no game has ever gone all the way.

Friday the 13th tried and failed due to legal reasons and Alien vs Predator was a weird concept in general. Dead by Daylight is about as far as it really goes in terms of success, with other titles, such as: Evolve, Last Year and Secret Neighbour trailing very, very far behind.

All those games are examples of why the concept doesn’t really work. You can’t be an unstoppable killing machine without placing some kind of limitation on one player and giving the other set of players certain exceptions. This only furthers my point when you realise there has to be other humans involved because it’d be boring playing against a bunch of NPCs that just run away.

Now, since there are humans on both sides, everyone needs to be given a fair, balanced chance at playing their way or the game would just die completely.

In conclusion, this entry has almost been done, with the likes of Dead by Daylight and Left 4 Dead, but it will always be confined to multiplayer and that brings its own set of issues.
