Just how good is Dying Light 1? Is it the best zombie game of all time? In this anon's opinion... yes.

>>749477221
It unironically is

The following is better

>>749477221
Dying Light 1 gets good when you have enough skills to just dropkick zombies off of rooftops and actually have some zombies on rooftops to kick in the second area
The early game sucks ass when the average zombie is on flat ground and takes a dozen hits from a breakable metal pipe

I love how scrappy the early game is. In fact, I wish the whole game was early game.

Dead Island 2 might not be particularly great, but to say it's worse than 1 is absolute retardation. In fact, people who liked 1 are not to be trusted and their opinions belong in the trash. And I bought DI1 on release.

I had no expectations for DI2 after ten years of dev restarts and swapping studios, gave it a shot since Dambusters made Homefront the Revolution and I like their level design. It does nothing new, but does everything good enough to finish it. And while its sequelbait right before things get interesting with the magic zombies it was all delivered in the same vein as Z Nation where its almost always silly but in an endearing way so when bad things happen I felt bad for some of the characters. Plus it introduced me to this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udWGDD7jE8M

dead island took a decade to make before there was even any marketing
i expect once investment money was on the line there was simply not enough time to bake
