Dropkick: The Game

Dying Light 1 was punching above it's weight even before The Following DLC dropped (which you absolutely should play right after the main campaign), and the post launch support is some of the best we've seen in the industry. I've got probably close to 400 to 500 hours in the first game, and I think I'll probably be doing that again for this one

In the first dying light, there were a few places my friends called "smoke spots" because zombies cant pathfind to you (even at night) and you can afk for multiplayer. I hope there are some places like that because theres an eerie ambience at night on a dark rooftop

I actually

I wanna like it but I’ve ordered a refund, the whole vibe is different, dying light 1 was so well done but this game just feels … off? Like the combat isn’t great, the parkour is super floaty and the whole setting just doesn’t sit right with me, and not to mention how stupid the opening is, like you’re trying to tell me that when those guys are looking for the key on the informant guy they DIDNT SEARCH HIM like small story details like that annoy me cos unless he was using his prison wallet the first thing you do when you think someone has something is search them. So stupid. I’ll wait until they update it or some saviour mods it so it plays better

I’ve played this game and it is completely unplayable with the amount of glitches. I’ve encountered a glitch where I literally can not progress the story until it is fixed. I would not recommend buying this game in the state it is in right now.

The content you guys produce, especially the before you buys are appreciated! I'll always watch a Before You Buy before any other review!

Why is the mc always named Aidan

I ONLY FIND THESE VIDS AFTER I BUY THE GAME 🤣

day one patch didnt fix anything lol

I really appreciate you guys always going out of your way to do the specific intro for each video. now that I’m older and been watching for a while it gets so nostalgic clicking on your videos and hearing the intro.

A small thing I noticed that made me a bit sad was enemy's don't get stuck on spicked environment anymore like in the first game. Personal bummer

There has been a few bugs for me, but nothing game breaking so far I still love it. I genuinely hope they put as much love into this game as they did the first one. If they do I know I’ll enjoy it for many years to come

I've never really been a Zombie game type of person. But I thought I'd give this one a go. I'm playing on the Xbox Series X and found a few little issues but it was mainly stable to play. I'm now completely hooked. I love this game, I do like the story elements as not being a PS5 peep, I've missed out on these types of story-driven games and this is really my first look at this. I've been enjoying it so much I caught the first game on a 70% sale and have started to play through that as well. The first game is way harder and I seem to keep dying every few minutes by getting swamped by zombies, but I'm persevering.

I remember when I was a kid playing Dying Light 1 the revelation of having a zombie that could follow you around the city and do parkour was absolutely terrifying. Something that will frame Dying Light as a series to me forever.

I love how I can always count on you guys for mostly unbiased reviews, and always on time fresh new content and reviews.

I know this is older now, but me and my friend recently wanted to play a zombie game but we didn’t want the typical call of duty zombies, multiplayer game. We wanted some thing open world something we could put tens of hours into and play in progress together. then we stumbled upon dying light. I knew what dying light was, but I didn’t know it was Fully multiplayer compatible and what I mean by that is the campaign is fully multiplayer except for the very last mission. I know the game is almost ancient by now, but I won’t spoil anything just in case anybody is playing dying light one for the first time anyways after about 60 hours of messing around exploring, and occasionally doing story missions, we beat the game. The parkour was phenomenal and honestly most of our game was just running around, beating the shit out of zombies, and that’s exactly what we wanted. Then we got dying light 2 we heard it was extremely buggy in the beginning so we decided to wait a year before buying it, we bought it about a week ago and have beaten the game ever sense long story short I highly recommend this game. If you even remotely like dying light, you will love dying light two the parkour is better the combats better the map is better. The exploring is better the story is better it’s pretty much better in. Every single way possible 10 out of 10 great zombie game I highly recommend it.

I was always bored with “zombie” games and never really gave them the time. Then I played the first dying light and just absolutely fell in love with the game. The graphics were great, the characters worked, the story was intriguing. The game play made me want to keep playing to level up and get more gear, skills, experience. Even when people are too hard on these games and expect massive amounts expectations….it’s a game. First dying light was a great stress reliever that was more than fun to always play. Loved the blueprints and secret weapons you could fund. Dying light was top 10 for me !!

I think people might have expected more from this game since the devs tried to lean a bit more into the RPG elements, but at its core its just more Dying Light (and that's all I want really). I think I found the issue of "NPC's getting introduced and forgotten quickly" a bit funny because that EXACTLY how Dying Light 1 worked out. there were like 44 (afaik) side missions in addition to the story, and between those there is like 5-ish NPCs that actually stick around for more than 1 or 2 missions, and even then 2-3 of those get forgotten once you change zones and none of them really play a big part aside from hearing their voice occasionally. I'm not defending it, I'm just saying the original game was just as bad for that.

Really appreciate your honest thoughts as always. Techland are one of my fave devs, so I kind of expected to love this already. Kind of disappointed to hear all the story changes they kept spending so much time hyping up, didn't really have much impact. The grappling hook, paraglider, etc kind of stuff is always welcomed in parkour games, gld the gameplay looks solid.
