    Сюжет в сделку как говорится не входил, за то входил показательно интересный геймплей(активности впервые когда меня от этого не тошнило).

    Who waits the first game? An old and warm.
    You can cool down. It's not a previous game. It's just other game with the same name.
    Is this game bad? No.
    Is this game good? No.

    This game is very casual and very mediocre. A scary tale without tale and horror.

    Another totally average "ubi like" checklist game. Bland and uninteresting story, cringy flashback moments, overuse of cutscenes where game is taking the controls because a protagonist must look around for no reason.

    Parkour is the highlight of this game and works very well, however the story and the world presented is so uninspired that I've lost interest after 15h.

    Wait for 50% discount.

    Well i like parkour and environment in game but optimization its the point where everything **** up.
    No manual saves and this essential when game can crash in random moments.
    Little bit strange scenarios.
    So when game will be more stable its really 7-8/10.

    Just so so.

    Most of tasks are boring, just run and chop everywhere, except plant explosives.

    Poorly optimized. During loading time after entering the game, the frame will drop and freeze, i should wait for minutes to play. if your engine is trash, use UE4/5 please.

NPC проговаривают одни и те же фразы, когда ты подходишь, что начинает уже подбешивать. Сюжет постноват, чем я огорчён. Techland не смогли нормально раскрыть персонажей, и та же смерть Фрэнка, которая должна была по задумке сценаристов вызвать грусть, на самом деле дала ноль эмоций. Добавили Русскую озвучку, но во многом карявую. Напившаяся Лоан разговаривала как трезвая, ОЧЕНЬ много мата, который в некоторых местах неуместен и абсурден. В некоторых моментах кажется, будто только актёр озвучки, чьим голосом говорит Эйден, выкладывается по полной, что нельзя сказать про всех. Продолжать этот список можно до бесконечности, но я могу лично от себя заявить, что это, во первых далеко не то, что нам показывали в старых трейлерах, где та же Лоан выглядит посимпатичнее, город выглядит по другому, а обещанные СОТНИ сюжетных выборов поделили на 10, и во вторых, это далеко не то, чего я ожидал. Я никоим образом не виню Techland за то, что они не умеют читать мысли, но можно было и получше постараться над сюжетом и NPC. За немалые семь лет можно было сотворить игру, схожую по крутости с RDR 2.

    Personally, I liked the game 50/50. If we compare with the first part, then: The graphics are cooler, the map is incredibly cool, a good idea with inhibitors, parkour at a high level. Added blocks in hand-to-hand combat, which were sorely lacking in the prequel. But the fight itself, the physics of bodies leaves much to be desired. NPCs say the same phrases when you approach, which is already starting to make you feel better. The plot is a little sparse, which upsets me. Teckland failed to properly reveal the characters, and the same death of Frank, which according to the idea of the writers was supposed to cause sadness, in fact did not cause any emotions. Added Russian voice acting, but largely free. Drunk Loan talked like a sober woman, a lot of mat, which is sometimes inappropriate and absurd. At some moments, it seems that only the voice actor, whose voice Aiden speaks, gives his best, which cannot be said about everyone. You can continue this list indefinitely, but I personally can say from myself that, firstly, it is far from what we were shown in the old trailers, where the same Loan looks more beautiful, the city looks different, and the promised HUNDREDS of plot options were divided into 10, and secondly, this is far from it what I expected. I don't blame Techland in any way for not being able to read minds, but it was possible to work better on the plot and the NPC. For a considerable seven years, we managed to create a game similar in steepness to RDR 2.    … Expand

    A bizarre step backwards for the Dying Light franchise. Parkour feels worse than the first, too many mechanics are cribbed verbatim from other games, there very little tension or horror, the previous game's terrible story somehow got even more terrible, and turning the entire experience into a grindy action RPG was simply misguided.

    To start with, the RTX implementation is terrible in this game. With RTX on everything is just way too dark, some people will defend this by saying "Night is supposed to be dark", but even in daytime there are huge dark areas. There isn't enough bounce lighting at all, so putting all RTX options on so you can see the pretty reflections and light affects at the cost of about -60fps meansTo start with, the RTX implementation is terrible in this game.

    With RTX off, everything looks washed out and terrible.

    And then there are the character model shadows, jesus, dead island released over 10 years ago and they're still getting this wrong!!! Your guy walks around with his arms stretched out like Boris Karloff from the 1930's movie Frankenstein!

    And finally, the gameplay... it's trash... parkour is fun enough, but it's just another boring bloated open world that isn't exciting to explore and the rewards for doing so are just as uneventful. I'm sorry I spent the money on this game.    … Expand

    Everything but the main quest just seems like it was written and performed by children which breaks the immersion so much.
    Even in the first "tutorial" part of the game - you meet a guy, talk to him - follow him into the next room and he suddenly says: "im going to leave you now, cause someone said to me, if you think someone is suspicious, you must leave them"... he then enters the next room and you both carry on like nothing happened... WTF.

    The combat is boring, its swing light attacks - unlock heavy attacks later on - they did try to spice it up with parkour attacks, but you have to block the attacks the perfect time - so all youre doing is waiting for that to happen and then get a few kicks in before youre back to blocking and tapping left mouse.
    I loved the first game, but I struggle to see both how this game is in any way an improvement - and how they have worked on it for so long.

    The first Dying Light managed to get both quality and a good duration. 20 hours of story and if you did extra content (which in the first Dying Light was fun to do) you could easily reach 60 hours of gameplay.

    Dying Light 2 presents a story mode that is a little bit longer, but with much less quality. There are many important characters that just appear in little fragments of the story, never to be seen again. The first Dying Light had less important characters but made more use of them, allowing you to actually care about them. Dying light 2 fails exponentially at that, since it doesn't give you enough time with the characters to actually care for them.

    The gameplay system is almost the same, but with little improvements (and new bugs, of course).

    The graphics are good, but the Vibe is far worse than the first Dying Light, since this had a sad almost dark vibe, and it was scary at night. This Dying Light 2 gives you a Fortnite vibe (even at night), with it's shiny colors everywhere.

    There is a ton of repetitive and insubstantial content to do, and you enjoy that type of void content, then by all means buy it, you'll enjoy it.

    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.
