Mar 17, 2022The game is just bad, i don't know why it feel like a downgrade from the first game. In the first game the sound and the movement is so much better, the story in both games are bad but in the DL2 is so much worse. and the hitbox it is like from a joke game from facebook.
Please wait some time to buy it on a sale. -
Feb 6, 2022Terrible, disgusting game, and the same terrible optimization, the developers also put Denuvo. And the main problem was that firearms were removed from the game, it feels like the action of the game takes place in the Stone Age.
-
Feb 7, 2022This game is being rated by bots, the game is very bad, the site should sort out the ratings and remove the bots, a game with such poor optimization cannot have such a good rating.

Feb 8, 2022From writing standpoint alone, Days Gone is miles ahead of this game. Days Gone has more depth, more natural dialogue, more interesting world design, better graphics and so on. Why i'm even mentioning Days Gone is the fact how big downgrade Days Gone 2 really is in terms of open world zombie games over the years. It's even worse than DL1 in many areas.

Jun 18, 2022I played more than 150 hours on PC. I see lots of bugs even with last patch 1.4.
Storyline is really boring and stupid. I don't see any new content.
I had to start new game twice because of bugs.
Now I'm palying NG+. Enemy's level is very high and they kill me easily.
DL1 is much better!!!! -
Sep 9, 2023The difference between what was shown in the E3 and what we got it is day and night
And due the recent updates and management, it doesn't seems that the game will get any better and that E3 content will be added
This game worths 10 dollars, but im not buying anything more from techland. I felt betrayed. -
Apr 23, 2022The game just really sucks. The combat and narrative is terrible

Feb 13, 2023This ridicilous trend towards overbloating the games with **** effects with no way to disable them have to stop.
Can't disable Lens flare -2 point.
Can't disable Bloom -2 point.
Can't disable Lens Distortion -2 point.
Can't disable Depth of Field -2 point.
Can't disable on screen effects like blood, waterdrops ect. -2 point.

Feb 12, 2022Non solo è un gioco pessimo, ma gli sviluppatori non hanno implementato il doppiaggio in lingua italiana. Mi auguro che falliscano.
-
Feb 11, 2023It is painfully buggy a year after release. I'm on my second play through in new game plus and it's buggier than I remember during my first one. I cannot call for help, I cannot accept distress signals, my game crashed today, the "Renegades" mission glitched and completely disappeared, causing me to lose over an hour's worth of progress.
I am very disappointed. -

Jul 15, 2022Broken and glitchy game. I like some parts, but overall it's not very enjoyable.
-
Feb 7, 2022It doesn't matter how good is the game you've made. You make a deal with Denuvo - you're bad for business. Guess what, pirates aren't your customers. You gain nothing. You only make your game run worse than it should. For the game itself, sorry to break it for you, the first one was better.
-
Feb 6, 2022Такое ощущение что игру делало UBISOFT POLAND запороли все что было возможно .
ПЕРВАЯ ЧАСТЬ ЛУЧШЕ ВО ВСЕМ БЕЗ ИСКЛЮЧЕНИЙ .Ну а концовки это вообще дно. -
Feb 12, 2022Disgraceful product. every aspect is a stigma on the developers. design, quality, SCENARIO.
Dying Light 2:
"keep eat ****
people: "ok. yummmmy" -
Feb 6, 2022The game can't even come near the first one. The game mechanics feel cheap. The story is straight trash, I am really disappointed. The people who gave this game 10 is clearly paid including all the "critics",

Feb 14, 2022Наиунылейшое говно! Купил, поиграл около часу и понял, что это не стоит тратывремени и оформил возврат средств

Feb 5, 2022One the worst gaming experiences I've ever had.
1. Co-op is completely broken (literally can't even click the button)
2. Controller buttons/actions just stop working randomly
3. Practically every mission has game breaking bugs forcing you to start a new save
4. The amount of motion blur is ridiculous. Horrible graphical glitches. Horrible performance.
5. Entire game is a downgrade from DL1 -
Feb 28, 2022extremely shallow game as compared to first part . too many bugs and non interesting story makes this a not buy for me and i am pretty sure for countless others.
-
Feb 19, 2022A literal downgrade on the first game, everything apart from maybe the graphics are just worse.. Combat is the worst part, doesn't feel as satisfying as the first, way more boring and repetitive, what a shame.
-
Feb 8, 2022Molti bug e manca il parlato italiano, missioni noiose e ripetitive, sottotitoli penosi ed in alcuni momenti addirittura mancanti, combat sistem vecchio.pessimo seguito
-
Feb 6, 2023I tried to play the game, didn't make it past the settings. Cannot rebind my grappling hook ? There had to be 3rd party articles that showed you how to edit the input script to bind a simple key ? Yeah mate, it's a no from me. Glad I didn't pay any money for this game. No wonder it was a flop.

Mar 12, 2022Pre ordered found denuvo announced days before launch recieved it then refund
denuvo can suck my d -
Feb 13, 2022Absolutely garbage.
Bad graphics on ultra settings. Game is outdated, the gameplay is very boring, nothing to do in open world. -
Feb 7, 2022Completely unacceptable. False Advertisement like never before. TECHLAND has clearly fumbled that football. So incredibly sad.

Mar 8, 2022My game has been ruined by the death loop bug. A bug that happens after they created a patch that was supposed to fix the bug. Can't even continue my game. Don't have the patience to start all over. Waste of money.
-
Mar 10, 2022Idiotycne dialogi, fabuła żenująca. Graficznie nędza tylko parkour się jakoś broni. Techland zrobiłby jakąś nową grę

Feb 6, 2022Booooooring as **** + ****ty optimization. Seems DL2 team never played the DL1
-
Mar 13, 2022Не игра, а сплошное разочарование. Не вздумайте покупать, подумывайте только о том смотреть это да или нет. Баг за багом, отвратительная концовка, непонятные разговоры, куда хуже Dying light 1...
-
Feb 6, 2022I couldn't find any positive aspect in this game: terrible punishment for Italian players (our language missing in the game); boring story and gameplay; no button assignments; no manual save system; crashes; bugs (many bugs); terrible graphics for a 2022 game; Denuvo added just two days before the realease. Gamers will not forget dear Techland
-
Feb 6, 2022I think Techland took deliberate action to remove Italian from voice localization at the only purpose to mock our country. For this reason they will never deserve our money nor our esteem

Feb 12, 2022Only for denuvo. I think that i mustn't pay this game for 30 dollars. I think its very expensive.
-
Feb 5, 2022Не рекомендую, кусок дерьма. Выглядит убого, испорчена боевка и паркур.
А анимации выглядят так криво -

Feb 7, 2022Absolutely zero! I don’t understand only one thing - why corporations are spending so much money for games without soul and concepts!
-
Sep 11, 2023Techland sold out to Tencent, inserted microtransaction into the game the same way they would insert pineapple into your buttie and grabbed some bonus from their Chinese overlords.
Screw Techland. Once amazing company, now not worth a even a spit their way. -

Oct 26, 2022Because of this game my YT channel got hacked and almost gone forever. This game should've not exist.

Feb 9, 2022interface was wasted also was wasted gameplay battle, system, Criss Avelon was Fired and all sink in ****
-
Feb 5, 2022The game has very poor optimization, on a ryzen 5 2600 processor, and a 1660ti video card, the game constantly slows down, gives out 30-47 fps. The game requires constant activation of Denuvo, if you restart the computer, the activation disappears.
-
Feb 7, 2022You are a big fan of the brand. You pay a few dozen dollars for the game in a preorder. In the end, the publisher says he'll implement denuvo, which works horribly, and he'll let twitch streamers play the game the day before, because he's a big streamer and you worm, wait another day because you don't deserve to play it earlier. No more preoders.
-
Feb 5, 2022bad performance, combat and story, floaty parkour plus denuvo. that's a no.

Feb 7, 2022Tons of bugs

Feb 7, 2022No italian dub so it makes this game out of this world, i would recommend this game to my family, 10/10
-
Feb 7, 2022Absolutely awful game, maybe one of the worst i have ever player. Bad graphics, jumping on zombies has so physics compared to DL1, awful story, boring characters, city looks bland and boring. This is most generic bad game i have ever seen. Avoid at all cost!
-
Feb 8, 2022meh to play but bad story, big downgrade and many bugs.
Personally recommend just buy dying light 1 is enough

Feb 8, 2022Boring, uninspired, overrated and overhyped mediocre buggy video game with decent parkour, awful writing, soulless characters and most boring open world i have ever had to explore.
-
Feb 8, 2022Bug ridden, overhyped, soulless and boring game. I wasn't crazy about the first one, but enjoyed it enough to finish it. This one is so much worse. Lots of glitches, horrible storytelling, ugly graphics, bad optimization. Not to mention they hid denuvo until the release so that they could milk the preorders. Don't waste ur time and money on it.
-
May 30, 2022В целом игра неплоха, но сюжет очень плох.
-
Feb 8, 2022This game is very boring and poorly optimized. But there is obscene language and jokes about intercourse. A good example of how sequels aren't always better.

Feb 23, 2022Giocando Horizon Forbidden West e Cyberpunk 2077 mi viene in mente perchè evito come la peste giochi come Dying Light 2. Tutta un'altra immersione, effetto cinematografico e pathos di un altro livello.
Tenetevi pure queste poverate. -
Feb 13, 2022This is an absolute garbage and robbery. The game is too bugged on all levels and is much worse in almost every terms comparing with DL1. DON'T buy this game until they will do some patches.
-
Feb 14, 20229/10 gameplay plays like first one but with huge improvements. weapon system sucks in this one.
plot 8/10 final boss is kinda lame. choices make difference -
Feb 14, 2022most Indie games I played are way better and interesting than this crap game. Asked for a refund and will never buy any other game from techland

Feb 16, 2022Techland ha arruinado este juego que está lleno de errores. El sistema de game saving también es terrible. Las misiones son repetitivas y aburridas. El juego es cero
-
Feb 16, 2022Dette spil er et stort nul for alt: dumme missioner, ingen sjov, ødelagt sparesystem, kommandoer, der ikke kan genanvendes, forkerte animationer, ødelagt parkour og middelmådig grafik
-
Feb 16, 2022لم أستمتع بهذه اللعبة. متكرر للغاية وممل. بصريا ليست جيدة. لم يتم تطوير القصة بشكل جيد. فقط المزيد من الشيء نفسه

Mar 28, 2022Despite 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.
-
Mar 14, 2022Dying 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.
-
Mar 11, 2022There 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.
