I love Stranded Deep, perfect balance of stress and relief when you do manage to survive! It hurt emotionally the first time I ate too much coconut trying to stop my thirst and got diarrhea 😭
You forgot Subnautica! It's all underwater, so you have to monitor your oxygen and swim to the nearest air source often, you need to find food (And usually cook it, so you need a base with power nearby), and you'll also need to explore increasingly scary/difficult areas in order to get rescued. The predators are scary enough, but this game may not be your cup of tea if you have thalasophobia...
I'm surprised Subnautica isn't on this list. I've played several of these and it's my favorite one. I would include ARK, Valheim and Conan: Exiles too.
What I find funny, or not. I've only heard of this guy. I vaguely know he's involved in music in some way. I don't even know what he did. I don't care to know. Just another b list celebrity doing b list celebrity junk. Has zero importance to my life.
And dying because you didn't take a piss with meters that full up every 30 seconds. I'm with you guys. They suck. Life's a pain in the ass enough without a game doing the same mundane shit as in life.
Yeah, a lot of them tend to be pretty unreasonably unbalanced to inflate the difficulty. Survival game devs: we are creating the most accurate, realistic survival game to ever exist! The game: "Boy that 3kg (6.6lbs) of meat sure hit the spot. I'm set for AT LEAST 30 minutes. Now to find 3 gallons of water to wash it down." Personally, I think the difficulty should be in the complexity and environment instead of the numbers when it comes to survival games.
@@drgonzo123 You'll have a blast! There's a million tips out there, but I'll just say, the radio is good, but when you get tired of it, throw on a 70s southern rock playlist from Spotify or Alexa or where ever. And restarting is very common. It takes a couple tries, but they just updated 48 hours ago to lower the difficulty a touch. Good luck!
I agree Icarus should be on that list. Do you know what’s crazy, if you did include Icarus that would make 3 of these titles Dean “Rocket” Hall creations. Stationeers are the same devs as Icarus and Dean created Day Z when he worked for the Arma devs.
Not many people might know this about " The Long Dark " game, but you lose everything in the chapter with the jail and the inmates. Every time you enter the jail, the guy at the door takes everything from you (the player), so the next time you do a job for them you have nothing, not even food or water with you. What " I " did in that chapter is that i found a small room with a stove, bed, etc and put all the necessary stuff from my bag to the cabinet that was there. This room is near the main gate of the jail, a few meters away from the main door. Leave everything you might need in there, otherwise you are going to make your life even harder.
I want a 30 min video addressing what happened to Falcon. Also, I'm kinda annoyed by this channel's consistant snubbing of 7 Days to die. 100% destructable environments and craftable base builder. It's a better survival game than most listed here (not all tho).
I miss when my cousin would play cabelas big game hunter or deer hunter. Being a kid with bad graphics felt better then Being an adult with great graphics.
I love Stranded Deep, perfect balance of stress and relief when you do manage to survive! It hurt emotionally the first time I ate too much coconut trying to stop my thirst and got diarrhea 😭
"keeps track of ammo and clips separately" its unfortunate that they only have guns like the mauser, M1 garand, sks, and other clip fed firearms; but at least they understand that reloading a clip can often be done one round at a time.
I remember my first times playing DayZ and Project Zomboid. I jumped over a railing in DayZ, broke my leg, had no splinters or the knowledge to make one and crawled around until I finally got put out of my misery by a lone zombie stumbling around near the hangers by the water. Another time I had lost a lot of blood and found a medical house with blood bags. I IV'd myself, only to then find out that I didn't know which blood type I was. Of course it was not a compatible one that I had just IV'd myself with 😆 In Zomboid, I got out of my starting house, stealthed around a bit, found another house, opened a window, house alarm started, got swarmed, ran to another house, broke the window, jumped through, got cut by the glass and then got cornered by all the zombies. It was really silly but I laughed my ass off from how paniced I was and how those unfortunate events played out, it was like a comedy 😂
Rust is my personal all time favourite. There are many different servers. Vanilla, modded and many differtent pve servers if you dont like pvp. (Pve servers have soooo many events and things to do. i play both.) Note: Game looks alot better now. (They used older footage here) And constantly is getting updates.
Yeah, really? 20 Survival Games without Ark? Can't take you serious anymore. What do you guys have against this game. It's getting quite obvious. Please let me know
Stranded deep (and the forest) was THE REASON I wanted to get a PC. Finally got a PC and one of the games was suuuuuper janky and the other one had cannibals.
The long dark one of the best survival games of all time. Hinterland studios is one of the most deceitful patronizing devs I’ve ever seen. They constantly insult fans insinuating “crunch” on a game that’s been out for almost ten years and is consistently releasing (bad) paid dlc instead of sticking too the clear development schedule set out in pre-release. I supported the game for a long time your not broke your not considering new titles or the market; your cheap and over self satisfied that’s why you need to convince yourself your not bullshitting in every update log.
Hey, you know Fntastic? The devs who made The Day Before? Yeah, they're back... with another kickstarter for a co-op escape game. Gotta make it a video
Damn... I've played about half of these :/ 7D2D is my #1 go-to survival game, but Mist Survival & No One Survived are good too. For space survival games - Space Engineers is by far the best, but some people like Empyrion too.
The title is ofensive... You have no idea how hard is my life, today i tried to microwave a bowl of rice and the MIDDLE bottom part WAS COLD after 5mins... 😢
Kind of disappointed to not see Icarus on this list. Definitely my favourite survival craft game, and its got a pretty steep learning curve with resource management mechanics for food, water and oxygen, lots of deadly creatures to contend with and one of the better systems for replay-ability.
Whoa now falcon. Did you just say that coconut water has awful taste? You must've had some packaged preservative-ridden stuff if you think that. Next time you're on vacation, go to a tropical country and try out some authentic natural coconut water. You'll change your opinion real fast.
I recall Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide. The fact that my savegame and level progress was carried over into Dead Island Riptide made Riptide all the more dangerous, since enemies were all at high levels
Hi Falcon,
It’s folks
Hey
you forgot to tell him "today we are watching your video"
@@gameranxTVdo another video where you list Patrick game and skip metaphor, paid boyo
Bro is speaking for all of us folks
Dude, I'm in a wheelchair. Any game that involves walking is harder than my life
You’re living life in hardcore itself keep ur head up brodie
We need a good wheelchair game...hover-wheelchairs too?
Why don't you try walking on your hands? Then you can use your feet for high-fives and eating sandwiches. You know, the important stuff.
Does this mean your favorite genre of games are walking simulators? Lol jk.
😂❤
I love Stranded Deep, perfect balance of stress and relief when you do manage to survive! It hurt emotionally the first time I ate too much coconut trying to stop my thirst and got diarrhea 😭
None of these games are harder than my pizza debt.
Curse you Jake Baldino!!!
He owes us all multiple pizzas.

Playing Hardcore Survival Games for fun: ❌
Playing Hardcore Survival Games to avoid Hardcore Real Life: ✅
I think Project Zomboid is a damn near perfect survival game. And with steam workshop mods you can make it actually perfect.
too much zombies event with the parameter on low , i quited the game lol
We also have B42 coming within the next twenty years! Woo!
agreed!
Hardest thing in PZ is to live long enough so that it leaves early access.
Gameranx mentioned Vintage Story! I was not expecting that! They get an A+ from me for this list!
Also came here to say this!
Props to the gamers whose lives are harder than these games; they’ll never see this video. cuz they can’t afford Wi-Fi
💀
And how do you think they will see your comment?
Im digging the new 7 days to die. Little annoyed I had to buy it again, and that I cant power level crafting... but overall pretty happy with it.
Realistic stamina. Feel like a genuine couch potato released into the wild.
Honestly I’d rather be in some of these games than real life😂😂😂
You sound different Falcon!
My bets on "recovering from a sickness"
RUclipsrs are moving towards an AI generated model so they don't have to do as much work.
Avian bird flu

@@saphricpcgaming5182 not everything is AI my brother in christ
7 days to die should have been on this list. Punishing but a lot of fun in a post-zombie apocalypse (anyone tired of this genre yet?)
7days to die is my fav :D also like DF(darkness falls mod for it)
@@LadyUsakoB Yes to Darkness Falls, also Afterlife? Yeah, that's hardcore.
I'd definitely have thrown Conan Exiles on this list, I'm surprised by how rough it can be!
I used to rock with you Falcon but saying coconut water doesn’t taste good has me in shambles 😅
I wish some of these were on console. Espec. Project Zomboid. Always wanted to try that one.
Don't starve can be gruesome especially shipwrecked
Honestly, SCUM should have been *#1.*
Agreed. I have about 1,000 hours in SCUM, I know a SHIT ton about it and it feels like it took 20% of my brain harddrive
Ever heard of Ark?? Spawn. RAPTOR. Die. Repeat.
Yeah thats the only hard survival game and its not even on this list. BRUTALLLL
Great vid Falcon
I'm surprised Subnautica isn't on this list. I've played several of these and it's my favorite one. I would include ARK, Valheim and Conan: Exiles too.
You forgot the hardest survival game there is. P Diddy Survival.
Jesus dude
What about Epstein Island? Lol
What I find funny, or not. I've only heard of this guy. I vaguely know he's involved in music in some way. I don't even know what he did. I don't care to know. Just another b list celebrity doing b list celebrity junk. Has zero importance to my life.
@@mikeberry5016lol liking your comment seemed too sus but lol tht shit funny
Harder than life? That's a bit much and you don't even namedrop the title.
Project Zomboid is the best game on this list, My summer car is also really good
As a south african:
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
Can confirm, i am south african
@@captainprototype755 🤣
7 days to die is completely off the chain with the right mods :)
Project Zomboid is amazing. Might be the best zombie game I've ever played. Perfect for this Halloween season!
No ark?? Thats rust with dinos
ark sucks
If I would answer as dumb as you do, you know what your mother is going to do
No S.T.A.L.K.E.R series ?
I hate these games - 10 hours of not knowing what to do before I give up🤕
Same honestly

Oregon trail. Someone needs to make a red dead mod tale tale style of Oregon trail.
Red dead 2 engine but Oregon trail story! Would be sick!
Icarus and frostpunk are 2 that i would include

For real, is there a worse way to go than dysentery?

Pressing play and waiting to hear if it’s falcon or Jake is how I play Russian roulette
the only survival game that doesnt look like 1990 kinda game graphics is conan exiles
Honorable mention OUTWARD!! This game kicked my ass but I still love it
I miss when my cousin would play cabelas big game hunter or deer hunter. Being a kid with bad graphics felt better then Being an adult with great graphics.

7 days to die!!!! ❤
My Summer Car has a middle finger prompt. That's all I need to survive. ❤
Ark, Subnautica, 7 Days? All not on the list?? WTF
I remember my first times playing DayZ and Project Zomboid.
I jumped over a railing in DayZ, broke my leg, had no splinters or the knowledge to make one and crawled around until I finally got put out of my misery by a lone zombie stumbling around near the hangers by the water. Another time I had lost a lot of blood and found a medical house with blood bags. I IV'd myself, only to then find out that I didn't know which blood type I was.

Are yall ever giving away consoles again? Last time you mentioned it, the answer was yes. That was a few dozen wars ago.
No 7 days to die??
If you really get it (a life like that) there is nothing harder than your life, so the statement of the title of this video is wrong
"This war of mine" - absolute nightmare. So good . . .
Green hell is straight up madness. I've never survived past day 3.

Ps4 launch footage lol why?
Project Zomboid is quite stressful 🤦🏿♂️
What happened to 7 days to die . I was sure that would make the list 😮
Ark survival should be here
Can fear and hunger be considered as survival game ?
12:12
I take better care of my DayZ character than myself sometimes
0. Robinson's Requiem (1994)

Does Hardcore mode in Fallout NV, FO4, FO76 count for this list?
And where's Subnautica?
No Fear and Hunger? I would say that game goes beyond survival horror. Is survival torture
Any of you guys played the random stranded deep/dune off brand called Starsand? It's actually kinda fun even though it's in Unity Engine.
Great list, but no Ark? Does Falcon's voice sound different?
The title is ofensive... You have no idea how hard is my life, today i tried to microwave a bowl of rice and the MIDDLE bottom part WAS COLD after 5mins... 😢
Use sprints when your legs are damaged? Sounds painful to run on an injured leg, I'd rather use a *splint 😂
Added bonus: Wurm Unlimited.
Basically it is the epic of survival crafting.
