Honestly this game being in development hell for a decade and then actually coming out in a finished state without any predatory micros-transactions of cut content is a real breath of fresh air. Genuinely tempted to shell out full price for this once just because I feel like this is kind of attitude that we should really be rewarding these days

I think my favorite thing about this game releasing is how most of the reviews are just “this game is fun” pure and simple. They aren’t trying to rip it apart or upsell you. Just that it’s a fun zombie killing game. For a game that was 10 years in development that’s a miracle. Excited to play

Sometimes a game doesn't need to be amazing, or offer anything new and so on. Sometimes it just needs to deliver what it promises in a good, entertaining experience and that seems to be what Dead Island 2 does. It's also nice to see a zombie game that out in bright sunshine and picturesque locations, instead of the usual dark and grim ones.

I think this game will provide a lot more fun in a way of zombie killing than Dying Light 2. In DL2, they've changed the original formula too much, perhaps trying to boost RPG elements, but that kinda sucked out a lot of fun from the zombie killing itself. So while Dying Light 1 was a lot of fun, I think Dead Island 2 will destroying Dying Light 2 in terms of how fun is the zombie killing.

After playing this game, found that DL2 was way superior. The performance, graphics and gore are fantastic on dead island 2 but the areas are awful, missions are awful, all that reconnecting wire stuff and gas valves gets boring, way overused. The melee is pretty poor, you do the same 3 attacks over and over to enemy sponges until you start getting late level upgrades but once you have that you've realised the games repetitive and boring.

It's a trip to think the original, which I burned so many hours on, released the same year as another favorite of mine, Dead Space 2. Seemed like an eternity ago.

@@IskenderCaglarM41B441 I heard that too. They don’t rub your face in identity politics or anything like that the whole time. Barely if anything. Honestly though I’m not dwelling over the changes they made to Kendra’s character while I’m playing through the storyline, improving my weapons/ suit, and surviving neocromorph attacks.

Watched a few times and while I noticed you said at the end it was a fun time I didn't notice you saying if it was a buy or wait for sale. Assuming it was a buy but wasn't entirely sure. Love the review though and very helpful as I'd been on the fence about buying or waiting for a sale.

Honestly looks really fun :) Glad too hear it's a good time. As a former So Cal resident I am very curious how they handle L.A. and it's possible surrounding areas. The gore system looks amazing. Also that riot cop zombie's grenades triggering after you hit his vest was pretty awesome.

​@@brightorb1 idk how unusual it is for him to forgo the classic default verdicts, but I think the review itself is enough to give his thoughts and be helpful. That he found it worthwhile, but with some notable caveats. So depending on the viewer, it can imo lean between *Worth a buy* and *Wait on sale.*
