It is 2020, the literal worst year so far. We are experiencing the downfall of society and possible extinction of the human race and we STILL don't have a game about surviving an alien invasion and/or abduction. But yeah why the fuck not, we totally needed the trillionth generic zombie game, keep them coming!
he's not wrong retard. Just look at all the apes running amok

>a virus with a 2% death rate >race riots that Americans have had for decades now on and off >downfall of society and possible extinction of the human race
Not everything revolves around you dumbass Americans. Why do you have to make everything so dramatic?

Because it's the same shit every time >"Hey guys what are some good alien videog-" >XCOM >DUDE XCOM >PLAY XCOM YOU FUCKING RETARD >XCOM EXISTS Y'KNOW >I'LL TAKE WHAT IS XCOM FOR 300 ALEX Seriously it's the only game that people mention when there's an ayylmao vidya thread.
NONONONONO let me guess >muh alien isolation exists too Either that or this It's always the same shit
And like on cue, the downfall appears. How's your HRT progress?
John Gomez
>a game about surviving an alien invasion and/or abduction Play the original Prey. Great game.
Charles Taylor
yeah I get that so just say don't say x-com because everyone knows that one, you can't just say it doesn't count when it is literally the embodiment of what you are asking
Leo Mitchell
You said that last year. And the year before. Fuck off doomposter.
Blake Baker
>surviving an alien invasion XCOM >and/or abduction Prey.
Carson Gomez
>It is 2020, the literal worst year so far. 1918 was pretty bad
Julian Walker
Well, did you play them?
Adrian Sullivan
Isn't Xcom like RTS or some shit like that? You retards know that when people ask for "A survival game in an alien invasion" they mean TLOU but with ayys, right?
You'd have to look at the root causes of why aliens declined in popularity while zombies flourished in popular media. Personally, I attribute it to the fall of communism; for decades, the cold war put the fear of literal invaders from the sky, and as the result of science, (i.e. nukes) into the collective consciousness. A movie like Invasion of the Body Snatchers is an obvious product of it's time. But with the fall of communism, two things happened: firstly, we had to look for new enemies and found it in each other, and secondly, with NASA and space quickly being defunded into irrelevance, science and Sci-fi in general dropped in popularity. To put it another way, you being abducted by aliens from across the galaxy isn't likely, but you being attacked by your crazy neighbor across the street is. It also doesn't help that the little sci-fi we have skews towards cooperation and even romance with aliens; no longer are they a thing to fear, but rather a sexy blue alien or snake waifu to lust over. Even X-Com does this now!
Anyways, we probably won't get aliens games soon, even though it's basically my dream game. Any devs reading this, feel free to make this for me. Also, lookit the bling on the little centilien.
>the fall of communism lmao you just wait a couple years user

Also, I just remembered I played Generation Zero. It's almost what you're looking for, but it's a bit shit and it's gay robots instead of aliens. A non-shit version of that game would be pretty good.
