    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is a true milestone in gaming history. Game play has nothing to complain about as it's done perfectly. It is spine chilling in most moments throughout the game. The story is nicely written, shows the life of survivors inside of the plague outbreak when they have to compete with another groups about their supplies. The DLC bring us outside the Harran city to look for a missing medicines required to survive in Harran. The only strange thing in the DLC that is actually good is that as Crane in one ending might get "Sacrificed" in the atomic bomb explosion when through entire game he tried to prevent GRE from air raid and all the sh*t done gets gone. The main story is 10/10 however dlc lowers overall rate as it might get boring as it's mostly based on side quests.… Expand

    A DLC that is worth a new game. While others make Resident Evil 3 and name it a full game, techland makes a free DLC that is even bigger and feels like an almost sequel

    Dying Light is the best zombie game i have ever played. The Following keeps this level aswell. There is co-op mode and its very fun. This is a zombie/parkour/rpg. The flow is very good. One thing bothered me, The lots of driving with the buggy between quests in the following dlc. Maybe less driving parts would have been better, but I recommend for everyone, who likes zombie games.

    While most people like the expansion The Following more than the original game, for me it felt like a small downgrade. But it was still a good and enjoyable game.

    +Открытый мир, повсюду зомби, могут попасться выжившие и т.д.. + Так еще и не не пустой (мир).
    +Обширный арсенал, начиная от различного холодного (которое еще можно метать) заканчивая различными типами огнестрелов и по мелочи: молотовы,с4,хлопушки,петарды.
    +Рецептов в игре очень много ( так как я купил платинум эдишен мб из-за этого у меня было открыто много рецептов с самого начала)
    +Сюжет кидает нас в различные ситуации.
    ++Большой плюс это кооператив на 4 человек. Проходится бодро и с весельем
    +Атмосфера локального зомби апокалипсиса передана по моему мнению отлично!

    Отличное длс, прекрасно дополняющее основной сюжет игры, ну и к тому же это связующее звено между первой и второй частью (а именно как эта зараза покинула Харран). Кататься на машинке прикольно, хоть и если застрянет, а рядом прыгуны, то пиши пропало, а застревает она нередко (особенно если в лес попрёшься, там деревьев уйма, и ни одно не сбить).

    Dying light while not perfect by any means is Amazingly fun, as to not waste any time the deducted points are for Story and a bit for for the map

    - Parkour/Freerunning is endless fun really, i must have run in the same areas dozens of times through my playthroughs and it never felt stale. Cat jumping, Monkey Vaulting, Speed vaulting and tic tacing through the world never got old or    Dying light while not perfect by any means is Amazingly fun, as to not waste any time the deducted points are for Story and a bit for for the map

    - Parkour/Freerunning is endless fun really, i must have run in the same areas dozens of times through my playthroughs and it never felt stale. Cat jumping, Monkey Vaulting, Speed vaulting and tic tacing through the world never got old or tedious to me and the grappling hook only supplemented this giving you that extra bit of speed to clear distance.

    - while this is not all that present in the Dying Light: The Following, DLC, then has some of the best driving i have ever experienced from a game that isent named Forza, Need For Speed or Dirt, the buggy feels like a buggy it doesnt float for infinity cough cough GTA, it doesnt have grip that wont slip, your car drifts, jumps, slips and drives just right to be fun as hell, driving halfway up a mountain face to avoid zombies or slipping and drifting around in the woods of the DLC area at night on **** old dirt foot paths is hilarious

    - Combat is like Dead island BUT GOOD, you get combat abilities, tools and a diverse cast of weapons and weapon mods that really diversify how you go about stuff and naturally made me wanna explore the combat system, and the arsenal at my disposal i reached a point where i thought "Hey using this suppressed rifle is too easy, Lets switch it up and go melee, fookin chop some heads off, weeve and bop kick some fools into spikes" and it was fun and i could still return to the rifle and have fun again

    - Visually the game holds up surprisingly great, the same character models are used repeatedly and obviously is just masked and clothed differently but it is surprisingly didnt get to me all that much as someone who likes good graphics, and the game managed to mask its aged textures really well, i feel it hard to talk about the graphics cause the experience of the game is just very visually pleasing and due to the free running aspect the game doesnt have to put yellow or white paint or literal warning tape over places you can climb

    - Noises, sounds and voice acting, the VA's and characters world building makes you pretty interested in the world and what people have to say, the protagonists voice acting is great, he manages to have range and different verbal tones in different situations, and the supporting cast is mostly pretty good there are some one off characters thats a bit bleh but they are one off characters that you interact with for all of 2 minutes, sound effects for the world and zombies are darn creepy before you get used to them and im not usually a scaredy cat.

    - while quests might be a bit repetitive like fetch quests or the completely voluntary escort missions it manages to not get old or tedious its supplemented greatly with Kyle Crane actually being present in the world, commenting on his objectives, interacting with the world and characters

    - Difficulty is actually measured off of what the average person could handle, its not determined by content creators that have 0 game sense that could fail a single key press quick time event they had 5 seconds to react to it, Normal is Normal, it will kill you if you are caught lackin, Hard will kick your ass if unprepared atleast for the 1st handful or 2 amount of hours as you build up your Survivor level

    Now to the negatives

    - The world might feel a little small and repetitive to some as it is not all that big. it about the size of what i wanna say is a district, being 1 district for each world area being The Slums, Old Town and The uhhhh i forgot the name of the area for the Following, so 3 districts which are what i wanna say is about 2 or 3Km by 2 or 3Km, but again i didnt find this too much of a bother as i had fun going around the world

    - The story is by far the weakest point, while i do consider this a surprisingly good story for a Zombie game, a genre plagued by unironically bad and weak writing and on purpose cliche or comedic writing (look at Dying lights spiritual predecessor form the same studio Dead island) or Dead Rising even if its a good game or 3 **** 4 tho) it is very not serious and obviously comedic. Dying light's serious story tries too hard at times and doesnt manage to capture your attention all of the time, there are also a lot of logical errors and questionable character choices that drag the writing down its not fantastic by any measure but it is atleast a good story, not something i can afford a full point for tho

    So i subtract 1 point for a kind of weak but good for the genre story and cause of the world size being on the smaller size so its kinda repetitive. i gotta be real here while i enjoy the world and the world throught side quests feel inhabited and it didnt get old to me, it is still pretty small and could use a bit more diverse environement or atleast more of what it has    … Expand

    Dying Light is the ultimate survival horror zombie game by Techland (as for 2021).
    It's a sandbox with multiplayer elements that enhanced the game as much as one can enjoy a buddy.
    It has Dead Island's strong points, combined to first person parkour with a pinch skill tree to unlock new cool moves. You can now walk on zombies on a highway and hook a building to flee some fckn volatiles.    Dying Light is the ultimate survival horror zombie game by Techland (as for 2021).

    You can now walk on zombies on a highway and hook a building to flee some fckn volatiles. These nuisance creatures are the **** you least want to deal with. There are an average variety of zombies, from the coward ones to the buffed ones.
    It's a pleasure to navigate through Harran City, it has a heavy arabic style architecture that is easy to climb on, a beloved level design. Other places can be discovered but they are for the most part urban.
    I loved the combat, nothing much to say if you've played Dead Island, though fire weapon are way more effective than melee weapon, unbalanced imo. I felt the blueprints weren't worth the effort. The weapon has a bit of changed in appearance but it do not feel like a big upgrade, it's a let down for me, as I like to try and craft. To be honest, the crafting system is lacking progress system, I seldom used it, only for medkits.

    The story is your typical agent that works for "nobody cares" and he tries to be nice to people while killing the angry mob. It has some Bollywood moment too, it throws you off and it's kind of refreshing, the funny side is that it takes itself seriously, it's a nice touch. It's average and dumb, the voice acting is cool though(in English).
    The audio fx are great, music aren't that much present, and did not stuck with me unfortunately.

    The Following add a enormous new playground with vehicles and new quests that I yet need to try. But it gives another dimension to the game, leaving behind the verticality of Harran City for farm fields and broad environments, I love those kind of expansions.

    Grab a copy and play with a mate for more fun, or try it alone if you dare survive the night.
    Strongly recommend.    … Expand

    This game reminds me of a mixture of Mirrors Edge (parkour), Far Cry (Kadir Suleiman reminds me of Nigan - I am Nigan! 'From the Walkers' Just the scenes themselves, the main missions are very similar to the plot of Far Cry, Well, I think the ride, the change of day and night is also reminiscent.

'From the Walkers' Just the scenes themselves, the main missions are very similar to the plot of Far Cry, Well, I think the ride, the change of day and night is also reminiscent. Dead Island-well, there are just enumerations, from tasks and up to ferment through the expanses of the entire location, it seems to me that the game was built on and there are similar features with Dead Island.
    Tasks are given in the style of "bring-do-help". It suits me, amuses me, and seems logical. The change of day and night is a special case. There's no point in writing. The only thing is, if you don't catch the change of light, you have to look at the clock. There are a lot of dialogues in the game, it even sometimes infuriates, but every character, even a minor one, sometimes has dialogues with which you can laugh.

    Features
    The first thing that catches your eye is the background of the game itself. It is sinister and so creates the right atmosphere. During the day, we try to complete as many tasks as possible, get a lot of things, and in the evening we want to run as fast as we can to the base, because night mutants cause fear and it is very difficult to escape from them.The world is already familiar, but again, unlike Dead Island, everything looks more natural. Over time, of course, you start to extinguish the night creatures. But you'll have that later.The game Sooooo many crafting things, but I will say that most of them are useless (unless you use them at the beginning of the game). Also for us, the developers provided searches for notes, various figurines.
    The action is very realistic. What is called "felt". Anyone who has ever hit a person in any part of the body or even kicked a pear will understand that in order to beat off or at least smash a human head with a chair leg, you need to have great strength (even the Sex Machine from Dusk to dawn spoke about this). Weapons for every taste and color. From a rusty screwdriver to a gun or some kind of sword... it wears out, as well as breaks, repairs and models (and with visible effects). The theme of parkour is new and very attractive, especially without it it is impossible. Just don't break through. While I got acquainted with several types of zombies - simple (the most stupid) Those that are so to say 'newborns' - they are mad and run to a loud sound, fast and can climb behind you on a hill, there are also Thugs with whom the fight can be delayed and their weapon is a huge stone club (like). Fuze (something like in Left4Dead) spittoon (something like in Left4Dead), night mutants are mostly distributed at night throughout the location, also react to noise, even the slightest. There are towers, like in faccry, which are difficult to climb.
    Multiplayer: You can go through the story company in solo, or with three players. At night, mutants can be played by players (and left-handed players)
    There are all sorts of tests-from the mass extermination of zombies with various weapons and to the race on the roofs, and in this all you can compete with your friends.

    In general, I advise everyone to buy this game, if he at least once played games that it is similar to.

    In conclusion, Dying Light is a terrifying open-world zombie game with an excellent story, intent on scaring the living hell out of you. The thrill of rotting flesh, blood, guts and quite often my own tears has left me with an ironically refreshing outlook on what a game can be when it truly delivers.
