I was super excited for Evolve when it was announced but after seeing more gameplay and hearing more about the game I'm getting worried. I'm concerned about the balance. Lazarus in particular. Here's a couple rounds of Evolve. Look at how good the monster player is.

He wrecked them in the first round using strategy and took full advantage of the hunter's down penalties.
Round two with Lazarus in the hunter group? He can't do a thing because Lazarus is ridiculous. You can't focus on him because he can cloak. You can't take out the other hunters because Lazarus can revive them, even after death, with no down penalties. Everything the monster does is rendered pointless because of him. The other hunters look strong in their own right but none of them negate the monsters progress.
What do you guys think? As someone who wants to be the monster this looks unfair and Evolve looks like it's going to be light on content. Making sure the multiplayer aspect is polished should be critical.

Wouldn't say worried, but I did pre-order it quite some time ago after seeing footage early on, but cancelled that after seeing more footage.
