Not to mention the game is still given small DLCs and Events to this day. Gotta buy that Savvy Gamer bundle one day.

I lost interest shortly after the beginning. Just seemed like fetch quest after fetch quest. I'm sure I'll return to it at some point

you should go play it. It's better than most new gams today.

Honestly, I think The Following DLC is actually *better* than the base game

@@nickgarcia1292 That's normal. Every great game usually has a boring introduction. Skyrim with the execution scene. Witcher 3 with White Orchard. Keep playing and you'll see why this game is beloved by many.

For me it was the second night The first one, you're close enough to the tower that its pretty quick and easy. But the second one, I was deep, away from all claimed safehouses. Literally took the whole night trying to get to one, ended up not making it and just barely managed to survive the night I still remember shooting the volatile as it ran at me, but just before it reached me, the sun came up, and I legitimately felt true relief when the volatile started burning and running away

Bruh i shit my pants in that moment

im still avoiding the night like a pelage, now later on i might not but for now im doing it wtih Perouse, because i do not like it! and the voltiles as bad ass as they are whne seeing em as a veiwer its scarry as fuck when playing.

Dude, that first mission with the Volatile chase... I never lost the Volatile. It chased me the entire fucking time until I made it to the tower. The only time I was so scared I nearly passed out in a game. It make me light headed

@Patrick Shepherd the following wasnt that much of a horrific experience in my regards. i always had close to 40 bandages, so i was mostly reckless since i had backup

I just got the grapple, and trying to grab onto high ledges is suicide because crane doesn’t grab anything even when you press the button, unless the grapple is attached to something more short ranged. Maybe I’mJust not used to the grapple yet. It can be useful but still.

😂😂😂😂😂 bro crane annoys the shut outta me, like bestie GRAB THE LEDGE

3500 hours??

@LongJohn Silver right? What’s the fucking point if the mf doesn’t grab the damn ledge?

Not the Ledges please I molded for hours just for Crane to grap one of them

Same here 😁

Umm, wtf

@@engihere5434 this is an actual thing you know

This mission creeped the shit out of me

Dude I was thinking about that mission as well man creepy asf because you have the white and black atmosphere

My best friend and I picked the Platinum edition up last week...were at 80 hours already >.> lol

Consider Deus Ex 1 for the scenario, replayability and small details here and there, it's top notch

Same!

400 hrs?? How many times did you play the game? Online also i guess no?

@Austin Batton the games been out for 6.5 years, that's 60 hours per year. Really not that bad lol

you mean the volatile or the player controlled hunter?

@@blax140 the volatile! Yeah those! I couldn’t remember the names, my bad!

Volatiles ain't shit once you have a legendary two handed weapon tho lol, one-shot-andys at that point

@@sgtjohnson49 but in the early to mid game…holy fuck are they scary. Not only do they look disgusting but they can two-shot you early on

@@lobaandrade7172 oh yeah, no doubt lol

This is so true ... i first was confused why people joined my story game and stayed although i was really slow thinking and acting at some times but they still stayed and helped me out every single time and i was confused because i thought they wanted something because most of the gaming community is selfish and doesnt help if they dont get something in exchange .... really nice community in dying light ... refreshing

@@vinceloeschke6256 I tried to bring that mentality to other games. In gta I always invite everyone on the map to my garage and let them pic a vehicle to try out and would help them do their business missions. Everyone I met in dying light was friendly and very giving. Not many communities are this awesome I hope 2 is the same I'm excited to get it

@@THIS---GUY thanks for making the gaming community better lmao, I remember this one time this guy on dying light gave me a bunch of rare weapons and I just thought it was so cool how other people were helping me

@@vinceloeschke6256 nice to stick around for exp along with having a battle buddy.

Some guys gave me really high level weapons before leaving that made the game so much more easier

And also, first time playing you aren't even aware of the effects of UV light on volatiles.

is that a nightmare thing? im playing for the first time on normal difficulty and i slept on a nearby safe zone

@@blogdogs9462 not that I know of. Maybe it got changed or I remembered it wrong (haven't played in years). I ran to a nearby hideout and couldn't sleep, but maybe it wasn't fully unlocked (some hideouts only unlock the sleeping bag after a certain mission). The UV lights were on and the Volatiles couldn't find me there, but with time being frozen I couldn't just stand in the light until sunrise

⁠@@blogdogs9462 Are you sure? Im nearly 100% sure you cant sleep until you reach the tower. Ive done the mission a few months ago and after your comment made so you must be lying

@@Handlemmm im not lying bro, but maybe it was a bug or someting

@@Secret_Takodachi bruh its literally coming out in December

@@Secret_Takodachi the sequel is coming in december and it was delayed so much just so they can actually release a finished product and not something like cyberpunk

@@Secret_Takodachi dude it was delayed once, stop with the fear mongering

@@WaltteriStor it seems like to you dl2 and cyberpunk are the same game and the game was only delayed once

@@Secret_Takodachi the game is literally coming out in December,what u on about

Dying Light had the best campaign I’ve ever seen out of a game.

@@jakematic1618 Dying Light had an incredibly mediocre campaign though. Rais is literally just a copy of the villain from Far Cry 3 and I can think of several games that have much more engaging stories. That’s just me though.

@@Y33tastic I agree with the far cry copy, which is still hilarious to me as I found that out when I first played the game. 😂

@@Y33tastic Yes story was average but gameplay was too much fun. Also the open world was small but very rich. My only problem was that they should have made random encounters purely random like in Fallout instead of marking it on map. Also mission did not have much variety.

i stop play when am encounter the parkour zombie holy shit

Lol tha volatiles r easy to lose inna chase like cops on gta4.

@@yOGlo I found that out later on but that first time was an oh shit moment

Same

I did the same man i become afraid of the night at sunset i always runing to closest safe house and call it a night didn't dare to go out in night except after many hours and good supplies

Dude, I didn't even realize that I had a torch with me until I went to sector 0 .I was basically blind on every dark places I visited. And the night was terrifying af without a torch.

What are your thoughts on the story? Like many others I think that was worst part of the game. I'll say though, they did improve it with the Following DLC

@@bradcampbell8101 story is definitely debatable but not as super bad as some critics would like u to believe and yes they really redeemed themselves in that domain with the Following DLC

@@bradcampbell8101 Honestly Kyle Crane was super relatable, and I loved the characters so it was easy for me to get invested in the story! :) Roger Craig Smith is an amazing voice actor, and the pain and sadness in his voice made the main deaths hit much harder.

@@bradcampbell8101 I liked the characters more than I liked the story, they all were very multifaceted with different experiences shaping who they are now, but the story was mainly a means to introduce new zombie types and locations, i did like how the perspective on the government begins to shift though, from being a Leon Kennedy sent to complete the mission to becoming the Hero of the people standing up as their protector

@@matthewhamilton2913 Absolutely do love that transition in the story and framing of Kyle and the government! I personally really enjoyed the way Crane would act when he had to debt collector for Rais. His obvious disgust at the situation and trying to be as nice as possible while also doing what needed to be done was very humanizing.

I was really enjoying Dying Light until the first night mission - couldn't get through it and never played it since. I think Dying Light 2 looks amazing but just don't think I can handle it!

Same here, but I fixed it by playing coop with my brother. It's less scary when you have someone tobtalk to and watch your back.

Same

@@FrankYoungUK ya from the looks in 2 the nights, and for that matter nests are gonna be a lot worse, BUT UV is lethal tot hem and day is entirly humans only

Same Ha ha

No way I stopped playing years ago I might reinstall, game was huge

@@mightymqb4800 I've replayed it 3 times with 1 or 2 years in between and it's still good ^^

@@YMilkshake I've just got chivalry 2 it's pretty satisfying, not massive content yet but pretty entertaining throwing your enemies head at his friend 😂

Dude they are constantly updating this game, having special holiday things… some of the best developer support I’ve ever seen

I dont think its underrated - nearly everyone thinks its the definitive zombie+parcour game

I still remember the soundtrack from that mission

yeah that was sick

I died a lot of times on that mission LOL. Everytime, i used to get stuck and forget to dodge certain pipes or remember to climb above at some parts.

I legit almost fainted there lol it was legit so scary

that was so horrific, i hated it so much. Once i finished it, my boyfriend was really impressed because he was scared too although he plays a lot of scary games

Shew, yes, just did that mission in my second playthrough years later and made the mistake of trying to open the door. AGAIN. Damn them for putting a prompt there … they just knew people like myself would look through the window and see what’s happening, but STILL try to open the door because there is a prompt that allows you to try lol. It’s the “no doorknob unturned, no container unlooted” mindset in open world games. It’s one of those “fck around and find out” situations, because if you didn’t know… You can walk on by that door, look in, never attempt to open it … and they will never chase after you, making the return back from the tower much more of a breeze. It’s the details like that which make this game pretty damn great, because there are people that have played this game that didn’t know you could turn the knob and have them chase after you.

Lmfao I don't blame him

I played the whole game without going out at night a 2nd time after the mandatory mission. It was so terrifying xD

Best way to deal with night missions is Zaid's Flares.

@@NeroLordofChaos that and camouflage

I never did that mission an missed a trophy because of it

Eh eh eh

Can't wait for dying light 2!!

dying light 2 when

Bruh how only 47 likes wtf

How does he have level 9 agility but 2 legend?

Do you know the name of the side quest? I wanna check it out

scariest mission for me was Rupert the gunsmith or angel blade quest line. You had to go in his basement looking for his zombified wife to put her out of her misery and there were fucking mannequins everywhere and it was dark, so creepy.

@@PANCAKEPAP1 chasing Past

Damn that quest. It started off fun when Crane pieces together the mystery with detective vibe and filter in the background. Then you enter the basement and find the dog's corpse...

The one where it adds some filter to the game?

Yeah, was that the school mission that also has Rais' men?

@@Arch3an yeah, I failed to mention it was the school area.

@@jaylynturner9027 Yeah, not only did you have to worry about them, there was also zombies everywhere.

@@Arch3an yeah I kinda rushed through it ngl, I did loot a lot but once jade took the explosives I hauled ass.

Yeah same with the tower. Whenever I'm on the top floors, before night time you can hear the screams of the infected on the floors below. Right before night when watch starts beeping it sounds like total chaos as compared to outside.

I agree

Yeah, the game while great is just too warm and welcoming, the first game actually was dark and you weren't safe unless you were in a safe zone, but in the second game all you need to do is go onto the roof of the nearest building and you're safe. I enjoyed the second game too, but it's just different.

I think you described the two games perfectly without just saying dying light 2 sucks beacuse dying light one exists.

Because back in the days those developers knew what they doing with the game and didn't try to mix different genres and didn't have all this fancy kind shits like weapons flame swords plasma katanas flying brooms and hoverboards. It's so sad to behold what has happened to this franchise and how it went completely on the same route like ubisoft completely ruined Assassin's creed. Don't let all those shiny effects disctract you from the facts, how much this game has been degraded from it's original predecessor.

@@user-qv9iv7vd6b If Assassin's creed is the comparison here then you've got your logic all the way fucked up. Let's say DL1 is AC2. DL2 is like Brotherhood or Revelations. Not as good as the first, but to call it a bad game is just wrong. What exactly was gonna be scary about a game where you know pretty much everything to expect, and it's like 15-20 years after the events of the first game. Everybody has already seen shit. Game didn't have to be scary nor would it have ever been scary no matter what they did.

What do you think of State of Decay 2 then?

@@thegaminggranny6752 8/10

@@thegaminggranny6752 it's good. But I like dying light more.

Just think the new dying light is right around the corner. God I’m so stoked to play it

@@cjwracker7242 🙏🙏🙏

I remember this mission. That's when I want to get the dog's necklace then suddenly I was attacked by the butcher and I shot him down with an assault rifle and that's where I close the case.

Bro I forgot all about this mission, I remember when I first played it a couple years back it was creepy asf, definitely should be on here.

I dunno why this one wasn't on the list as it was way creepier than many others mentioned. The tapes start leading up to something horrifying and then yup, holy shit.

@@TombstoneActual42 Jake either forgot or just didnt play it. I got dying light in 2018 and i didnt know the harry potter easter egg

Yes. This was the first thing I thought of when I saw this video. I can't believe it didn't make the list.

I got something similar I was messing around try to figure out this safe zone and try to figure out how to activate it and didn't realise it was already night before it was to late i found a hole sat their all night with my ass clenched so hard it could bend steel.

Lobaa... you shouldn't have

@@captinelf2745 ugh…Demônio

that mission spooked the hell out of me ,also something about cannibals just make me tremble with fear

Yeaaaa that mission was gold

It's called chasing past

@@thetacticalshield5211 You should play Metro Exodus then. There is a whole bunker filled with cannibals chasing you and wanting to eat you :D

Yh like there's no light from tha moon n sht it gets Hella dark

@@yOGlo when you're in the open and the sky is clear the moon we have moon light

Tbh I remember how scared I was telling my character ain't no time to be catching your breath bro run

Probably because it’s pitch black , you literally can’t see anything when compared to Dying Light 2 , the night in DL2 is mehhh , tbh you don’t even need your flashlight (in DL2) if you’re out in the open because the “moon light” is bright enough for you to see

Night hunter is sacriest because it's player Lol

Bro it's a fukn game fym 😒

Going in volatile nest at daytime with maxed legend and golden machete, this is where the fun begins

you missed out on lots of fun :)

@@cheekibreeki1983 it’s to easy😩😫😫😫

This game sucked

Darn Rite, loved going out at night chasing them green florescent monsters to get that herb while the Volatiles chase after you. Also liked standing at the very edge of a base at night and throwing grenades to cause the volatiles to swarm it then take them all out. Very fun game, I found several secrets also, like going through ledges finding the mini watermelon head zombies.

@@remmiallimacse8407 how so ?

@@remmiallimacse8407 No you.

@@remmiallimacse8407 Not many people agree with you..

I bought the platinum edition 4 days ago, except a silly little action game with zombie killing but got one of the best open world games ever, can't stop playing

never got around to finishing it i was to creeped out

Heh i spent at least 1500 hours on that game, on PC and PS4. Walk through couple times, I did everything what was possible. Including DLC. Great memories.

@@asoonehui9372 damn son I barely got around 70 Its my second time beating it barely.

Agreed i bought ps4 and my first game was dying light

Same, lol i was scare to go out at night when i first played on my standard ps4, now I can’t wait to play the sequel on my series x, still my tv is 1080p though, so I’ll probably not gonna get that 4k60 smooth experience…..🥲

After tales of arise, I might play this. Haven’t played it yet and i’m not really sure how this dodged my radar.

Fun fact. Fun fact is used pointlessly

Video

It's super fun, it's insanely fun with friends if you have any who can play it as well, but it's not nearly as scary with friends as it is solo.

You absolutely will not regret it, although it does go on sale often, if you want to wait for that.

I would also say it has a bit of a slow ramp up. Once you’ve unlocked a few abilities and get used to the free running it’s awesome

Just be aware that the combat is going to SUCK until you hit about level 10 and unlock better skills. Push through the first few hours, and the game is amazing

It’s like $15 on Xbox store so it’s a good buy for that price

@@TM-nh3zqTo turn him into the infected

It's weird to me that they didn't introduce the Screamers sooner considering one of the first few sidequests in Old Town involves one and they're also just on the map there in certain locations before you face one in the main story for the first time - unlike the Bombers and other variants, which are nowhere to be found until you do the main quest where they show up.

@@Briarhoes Thats a really good point.

Those crying babies freaks me out, first encounter with it is when I was doing (I think) the legless spider, had to search the house and that f*cker appeared ,no cutscene or intro for it (new enemy usually have cutscene on its first encounter)

The antenna mission?

@@emeraldiguana7316 The antenna mission was awesome, it gave everyone who played it a tingly feeling in the feet, really set a good atmosphere while showing Crane's frustration

@@dasleepyfox9299 yea, i think i was asking if he was talking about the antenna

true i thought about that one too.

Really adds that stuck in jilalabad feeling lol

yeah that asian/middle-eastern touch was great, just added another layer to the dread of the game with an already awesome modern soundtrack, which still had roots in the 80s synth, just was amazing overall, Pawel did a great job
