Question for Alienation and Dead Nation players

So im currently playing Alienation and absolutely love it! Clocked in about 20 hours so far and currently sitting at 30/51. Just curious to those that have played Dead Nation AND Alienation, how is Dead Nation's multiplayer? How is the grinding/gear leveling compared to Alienation? Which do you prefer? Being that this is only my second Housemarque game, I can't wait to finally get into Dead Nation.https://100001.onl/
