Turtle Rock's solo foray into the horde shooter genre was always destined to fall short. With promotional material constantly spouting "From the Developers of Left 4 Dead 2," people had intense expectations for what Back 4 Blood would be when it was released. And while the game never quite reaches the peaks of the Left 4 Dead series, Back 4 Blood is a serviceable, even fun game to play with friends.

The DLC inarguably makes the experience better - more card options, new enemies, and two story acts that stand out with impressive setpieces and locations. It's fun to make a 15-card deck and build your Ridden-slayer how you want to play, though the "roguelite" features that the game advertised in trailers are limited to random cards you find in a campaign and the detrimental cards at the start of each map. Still, the game is "fun enough" and kept me coming back for more with friends.

100%: You'll need to have both DLCs to get all achievements. Clearing Acts 5 and 6 on No Hope is challenging, but doable. The PvP Swarm mode achievement can be done in a private lobby, so no need to worry about finding random players trying to play a very inactive game mode. Killing 53,600 Ridden will certainly take you the longest - after completing all other achievements, I still had about 30k to go.
