Given the number of players (millions) and endless varieties of emergent gameplay it allowed, it seems to me an obvious and deserving choice. Flawed to be sure but also fresh with real stakes. If not DayZ, what would you have chosen?

well, how can we even begin to debate? you are the expert!

but perhaps, just perhaps - you could give a few examples of the "endless varieties of emergent gameplay" based on your complete lack of experience actually playing the game for even one moment

First, I never claimed to have an expert opinion. Second, are you really so stupid as to be unable to research an FPS without playing it and make an informed opinion about it? It's not rocket science.

Also, I noticed that no one has offered an alternative to this for mod of the year. It's fine to naysay, but without offering a comparison point your negative comments carry much less weight.
