Is ‘Back 4 Blood’ Haunted By its Prestigious Past? [Safe Room Podcast]

Legacy is a double-edged sword when it comes to sequels and spiritual successors. Legacy can provide a day one fanbase, but often at the cost of raised expectations. This has proven insurmountable for some games, having made the fatal error of resting too heavily upon the laurels of past successes.

Nostalgia and reverence can cloud the way to building a new legacy, something that we have wondered whether or not Back 4 Blood could achieve since it was announced as a spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead.

Is Back 4 Blood just a modernizing of familiar mechanics, or does it make strides to carve out its own legacy?

And for this week’s episode of Safe Room, Neil and I get to the root of this question by sharing our experiences with Turtle Rock Studios’ Back 4 Blood and the tricky predicament of past success.
