    First, I must say that the current score (4.2) may be because people started review bombing the game because there isnt Italian VA.

    Now with the review (Keep in in mind this is only my opinion)

    There are almost 50k reviews on Steam and the score is VERY POSITIVE. This little war here between frustrated Italians, spiteful Poles, and complex Germans has nothing to do with any assessment. In fact, user ratings on Metacritic should be turned off because it's a big misunderstanding

    A very good game, I like every element, and the most unique is parkour, combat, music. Villedor looks very good and has a great atmosphere in the city especially at night. Without revealing too much of the plot at night there is an adrenaline rush and a chase element which gives a lot of satisfaction. It's just a good game, I had no bugs, time well spent.

    Good atmosphere, good parkour and combat. And about the story, I wouldn't say it's perfect but it pulls you in I guess it did at least for me. But it definitely needs some updates.

    - very good game, and lot of similarities of Far Cry series
    - good redesign of night

    - lot of new good ideas
    - lot of things are better still in DL1. Fighting/killing animations, colors, skill tree and more 80's music (could be a choice?) and maybe parkour animations.
    - main story is very good. Side quest are usually acceptable but parkour time challenges are really bad (not all). There should be only boards or some more bets quest, other competitors, training sessions,... "Delivery of sugar" quests are bad. Electricity for goat - also very bad.
    - optimization - not bad if u find some DLSS like options. By default are disabled. Its the first game i've played RTX with more pleasure than without. I have most of time 50-70fps with 2K, raytracing standard + DLSS performance, RTX 2070S + i7 7700
    - bugs - there is a lot minor for example wrong candle fire attachment and more serious: game needs to restart after few situations. Most probable situation: loading/unloading surroundings of Fish Eye after night chase. With that framerate could have constant 20fps and game is unplayable. Sometimes it's just few seconds and good framerate is back. Game has no load screens and it saves lot of my time but it would be more annoying to restart when its multiplayer mode. Maybe that performance leaks are reason to not give us better rag dolls and other goodies.
    - final boss - round 1 - ground electro wave skill is little too annoying - unclear when its finished, and so unreal and that round has so many dumb situations.

    Really good game.
    I am playing on GTX 970 - full hd on medium setting and i have c.a. 60 fps.
    The graphics and plot maybe is not fantastic but due to great gameplay it is not that important.

    The funniest thing are people **** about optimization, but they still running on bad PC's.

    Only thing that bothers me are gliches and bugs.

    The word that describe this game is "immersion", you REALLY feels like u are fuc*ed in a desolate world. I though i would miss fire weapons, but this is the key to feel the fragility of human being surrounded by zombies.

    I played 14 hours and no bugs yet.

    Dying Light 2 is larger and more atmospheric than its predecessor and therefore offers exactly what fans of part 1 want. There are better RPGs with better stories and better combat mechanics, but there are too few games like Dying Light 2, which focus on clumsy action and wonderfully smooth gameplay

    10/10 playability 11/10 parkour 10/10 optimalization ( I can play highest setting with gtx 1660 s and intel 5-8400 with 60-70fps and from suggested setting i should go medium )
    In my opinions this game is awesome. It upgraded everything from first game and added some new awesome f.e night activities. Some sidequest are go here and take it but story behind this is good.

    10/10 for no italian localization let them cry and techland don't give them dubbing because they are bombing u with negative reviews no one cares about 'em they are just racist to us - Poland

    I recommend this game to everyone -
    you like zombie games - you will love it
    you liked dying light 1 - you will love it
    you are italian who cries about no dubbing - your opinion doesn't matter Poland often don't even receive subtitlews and we aren't review bombing... just learn english dah

    Satisfying parkour, decent RPG elements, expectedly deep story. I prefer DL1's favela-like environment vs. DL2's high-rise buildings, but still feels great nonetheless. Finished the game in 44hrs.

    Like the first game, movement is the highlight and it is a blast. The story's no slouch either.

    Probably best open world map and traverse mechanics. Impressive story variety. Sometimes cut scenes don't fit your story branch and there are a bunch of bugs and downgrades, but nothing that can't be fixed with patches. I suggest playing at least a year after release, you will probably enjoy it.

    If you enjoyed the first game, you'll enjoy this one. Simple as that. Nothing game changing, just more of what made the first one so good - Parkour and Zombies. Hardcore Parkour!

    In some ways a step back from the first game, but definitely improved in others. If you enjoyed the first game you'll no doubt enjoy the second, but it's different. Techland have promised 5 years of support, and I fully expect them to deliver on that as they did with the first game, which improved massively over the years.

    The reason why most people hate this game is that it has a very uninspiring permise. It starts off by putting you in a ugly portion of the Old Villador city without giving you any idea about all the cool aspects of the game. But if you can make it past the first few hours then you will be amazed at how much this game has to offer. I agree the main story is very confusing to follow withThe reason why most people hate this game is that it has a very uninspiring permise.

I agree the main story is very confusing to follow with multiple characters who dont have much impact on you. But the game really shines in the parkour free roaming. There are tons of activities to do. There are no firearms which is part of the story. I would have given it a full 10/10 if it had gun wielding parkour gameplay! Expand

    Canceling out the haters, this gane isn't perfect but it's better than a 0 out of ten. Idc if it doesn't have your native language its not a reason to bomb an enjoyable game.

    dying light 2 is a fantastic game i personally enjoyed almost every aspect of the game and i think it improves on everything the first game did so well. It has fast snappy parkour, fun combat and a interesting story the new changes with the skill tree and level system is a welcomed changed as it ads a lot interesting ways to level up other than just dropkicking the nearest zombie for adying light 2 is a fantastic game i personally enjoyed almost every aspect of the game and i think it improves on everything the first game did so well.

The map is also massive it takes you ages to run from one end to the other especially without the use of the glider which btw is also a nice addition to the movement system. In terms of bugs i havent encountered one that i even felt was worthy enough to even notice there was one time where one of the mini bosses fell through the ground but i just had to leave the area and come back so it didnt really impact so other than that this game is absolutlty fantastic Expand

    Despite all my complaints, I initially had fun with Dying Light 2. The first quarter of the game was engaging. I think if the rest of the game played like this, I would have way more positive things to say, but the fact is that it’s just not done. This is clearly an unfinished game mired in mismanagement. I don’t blame the developers at all; the leaders and executives behind this work are responsible. What works here is clean and well done, albeit with some boring AAA niceties. After the first quarter or so, though, the game absolutely falls apart in almost every respect. I’m sad for what was produced here, but if I’m being honest, I’m more sad that I invested nearly thirty hours of my own time into this. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

    Dying Light 2 has proven to be a brilliant zombie game, thanks to the great parkour and combat mechanics. The story however is a bit flawed due to some really strange twists.

    There is fun to be had here, but aside from a few moments of joyous parkour, it's the sort of fun you can have in dozens of other open-world games. There is certainly some added fun in co-op with a couple of friends, but in a world where we get another open-world game every week, I just cannot recommend anyone go out and buy Dying Light 2 at full price. Especially not when it came out right before Horizon: Forbidden West and Elden Ring, both of which look far more promising.
