I've played the two holiday events and the highlight for me are the new visual novel conversations surrounding them. It is pure weeb anime-esque shit for sure, but the VA delivery is pretty good and the interactions are cute. I always liked these across the whole game to be honest, so it's good to see new stuff and it makes me anticipate the DLC even more.
The gameplay is... decent, but leaves a lot to be desired. Arenas like these can be very fun and it kinda reminds back to the first SoD game which was much closer to Killing Floor, but the execution is lacking here.
The halloween map is too big and this causes the zombies to bug out and get stuck. All of my attempts had zombies becoming stuck in the foodstands every single time, and other times the game just fails to spawn zombies at some point, and I legit waste 10 minutes or more scouring the map but it is empty, until the game decides to continue the event... pretty janky.
Overall I like the christmas map better because it is smaller, more manageable, and it was free of the bugs mentioned. I also prefer the rewards there because they are cheaper and there is an actual new costume, compared to the halloween which only has accessories. But other than that, they are the literally the same in terms of waves, challenges, weapon spawns. Some more variety would have been best, but this was a free update so whatever.
