    Looks pretty good on PS4 and handles fine 90% of the time. I wish they'd have a bit more zombie's in the world during the day.

    Very nice game, great plot and graphics. I am from Japan and DL2 has dubbing which is awesome! I checked and there are 10 (!!) languages for dubbing - all the most important like English, Spanish, Chinese and French but also there is Japanesse dubbing. Pretty awesome job Techland ;)

    While playing this game, I couldn't get out of my mind how beautiful the Polish language sounds in the post-apocalyptic world. Luckily they didn't add some other language that has a lot to do with Mario and pizza, because it would only spoil the atmosphere. Thank you Techland.

    Open world games have gotten incredibly stale over the past decade--everyone knows it. Run here, fetch this, kill these, climb this, talk to them, etc. etc. The names and faces change, but 99% of open world games are fundamentally the same (with some marked exceptions, i.e. BoTW, Nier: Automata, RDR2, etc.).

Run here, fetch this, kill these, climb this, talk to them, etc. etc. The names and faces change, but 99% of open world games are fundamentally the same (with some marked exceptions, i.e. BoTW, Nier: Automata, RDR2, etc.).

    Gameplay: Hands down the most **fun** I've had in an open world game since... ever? The traversal/movement system in this game is far and away the new gold standard. Not even games lauded for their traversal, like Spiderman, match the exhilaration that you feel when simply moving from point A to point B in this game. Melee feels incredibly dynamic and kinetic **for a first-person game**. I will say however that in future iterations I would love to see the developers expand the player's stealth toolkit. Considering the obscene degree of mobility and verticality present in this game, I found myself desperately wishing that I could have had more ways to engage human enemies strategically--think tripwires, environmental traps, smoke bombs, etc.

    Writing: I feel like I must be losing my mind, because I keep seeing people talk smack about the writing quality... But the writing is really good? Like, it's no Infinite Jest, sure, but you know that issue in open world games where side quests generally suck? Yeah, that's not a thing here. Nearly every single side quest I've played so far--even short "throwaway" quests--has felt meaningful. Also, be sure to listen to NPCs side conversations when you're walking/running around. It's amazing how much care and attention went into them.

    And oh my god the soundtrack. Absolutely beautiful.

    And the world? C'monnnnn. Have you ever jumped across rooftops in a post-apocalyptic medieval eco-punk city before? Well, now you can!    … Expand

    Rosario Dawson is a stuning exotic beauty, with a kick arse body,, and a chill playfully attitude,  so what do they do to her? they turn her into an androgynous, angry, frankenwahmen. Why would they do this? Well the same reason every other modern studio make woman unattractive!. Its done the ridiculas effort to "avert the male gaze", like their priestess and savior (Sarkesian Anita) demanded.
    I've seen it before and if there is a pinch of progressive Sjw activism on the surface, then there is a pound lurking below..And that's all well and good,  but what I can't get over or suport is who these developers are..They are people that hate us!, hate us for our sex, skin colour  and consumer practices..They hate us on Twitter, in the forums and in their progressive journalist interviews. They hate us and I will never pay people that hate us ever again. So I'm gonna throw the " Ultimate Spiderman "disk in my OG Xbox an play that instead, a game that was made  by people that didn't hate us and had only one goal, to make a game we would enjoy.    … Expand

    Has many issues but still fun to play and worth the price for me. Tried to analyze from different aspects but turned out to be a long boring complaint. If you are afraid of the negative reviews, feel free to wait longer, Dying Light is known for it's long-term updates, so hopefully this one will be better during the years.

    Complaint list: 1) Performance. The game can maintain 60fps    Has many issues but still fun to play and worth the price for me. Tried to analyze from different aspects but turned out to be a long boring complaint. If you are afraid of the negative reviews, feel free to wait longer, Dying Light is known for it's long-term updates, so hopefully this one will be better during the years.

    Complaint list:
    1) Performance. The game can maintain 60fps under performance mode most of the time, there are some frame drops, but not frequency, but only AT THE FIRST SECTION. When you are navigating in the second one, you will encounter frame drops every few minutes. Personally, the performance is at the point that barely standable but not enjoyable. Note that we are talking about running on a next gen console and the graphic looks blurred and can be ugly sometimes.

    2) Gameplay. There are many improvements to the first game, parkour + combat works so good that just running around aimlessly can be a lot of fun. My complaints are for the human enemies, it's okay to make enemies good at defence, but in a fast-paced encounter, it's nothing but frustrating when you are surrounded by 5 guys and you can't hit anyone because they are all blocking and side stepping, while there are another 2 guys shooting arrows at you and climbing around when you try to get close.

    3) Multiplayer. Not much to say, it's basically the same as the first game. All the players have to gathered every time you need to talk to an quest NPC, nothing wrong with the system, but there are too many "talk to someone next me" moments in the main quest, so I'm sure the main quest is not optimized for multiplayer.

    4) Story. Not as bad as people say, yet has many to complain. The story in general is not bad, definitely not something great, but still quite an entertainment if you just watch to see what happens and not think too much. The biggest problem is that it's too obviously trying to make you feel "pain". It's a good idea to build emotional connection between the player and the characters, but when you know EVERY DAMN TIME a character revealed to you and obviously the game want you to care, the character will die immediately afterwards, without exception. You just won't care. Then the choices, they don't have any positive feedbacks, like I mentioned before, they just too obviously trying to "hurt" you. It's not "choose what you like to be", more like "choose to be an a**hole or try to be something else but turn out to be an a**hole anyway". That's not how to make a meaningful and satisfying story. Honestly I find the side quests are way more interesting than the main story.    … Expand

    The Traversal is expanded, with a much wider variety of Parkour Moves, Parkour Equipment and Parkour Objects.

    The Open World is more detailed, with a more profound difference between the Day and Night and a wide variety of Looting, Questing and Combat Opportunities.

    But Techland didn't just stop there. Along with every aspect of Dying Light 1 being improved upon, Techland have also added a plethora of new Mechanics to Dying Light 2, including new Enemy Types,
    a new Faction System, a new Infection System and a choice-based Story that is actually interesting.

    Overall, and I wouldn't usually do this, I have to award Dying Light 2 a perfect 10/10 Score. As the Sequel to one of my all time favourite Video Games, Dying Light 2 improves upon the original in every single way and as a result absolutely deserves my recommendation to anyone who loved the Original.

    This is a solid game and well deserved high rating. The graphics flow well, the scenery is amazing and the zombies are relentless. My wife asked what movie I was watching. R1 button to jump takes getting used to (again) and there are some plot lines that miss the mark or logic meter I would say but nothing that ruins the game. Well worth a ur Jade-a pod the upsells on gear-you do t need them.

    Dying Light 2: Stay Human brings all of the basics from the original Dying Light; however, it makes it all better and more fluid.

Despite very minor bugs, my play through was very smooth and the only bug I experienced was an audio issue. The color palette and graphics quality brings a new and refreshing environment to the zombie apocalypse. Who ever said that zombie apocalypses looked like nothing but gloom and doom? Combat is more fun and refined with the new blocking and parrying system in addition to being able to mix parkour into combat as well. Stringing attacks together from one opponent to the next makes it fluid but also addicting despite the combat being sort of redundant at times. Parkour is more realistic in terms of movement / fluidity but also insanely fun as you develop new skills and encounter new obstacles throughout the game. Customization and weapon modding has improved with more personalized options of customization for Aiden and his weapons. This is a spoiler free review so I will be very cut and dry with my content review in terms of THE MAIN STORY. The story is a rollercoaster depending on the choices you make. I wish Aiden developed more as a character throughout; however, you will enjoy seeing surrounding characters develop depending on your choices with who you help. Overall, I am pleased with this game. It is immersive and all around a fun experience. With minimal bugs that aren’t detrimental to the entire game, I still enjoyed my experience from beginning to the end of the main story quests. Do not let some reviews turn you away. This is all a matter of opinion including my own but this is something you should experience yourself.… Expand

    This game is definitely a gem of 2022. The plot is not thrilling, but there are highly rated games where it is worse. Graphics are epic, mechanics could be better - but they are ok. The romance of the main character with some woman is missing. The main storyline could be longer, but it's still longer than the messiah of gaming CP2077.

I only have about 7 hours into the game and had to stop because of the annoyances so who knows what else I could have run into. Then there are the poor decisions in development. I had a quest that said meet people. What it doesn't say is you have to do their side quests to consider them met. Just all around a huge disappointment.… Expand

But compared to the first entry of the series, this game is clearly inferior in terms of proper programming, attention to detail, atmosphere and fun factor:

    What I like about the game:
    + The environments look kinda good from afar and the city architecture is quite nice - also it has a
    long drawing distance
    + the intro with the doomsday party is really cool and a nice set-piece is created here
    + the music overall sounds pretty awesome
    + parkouring feels quite smooth
    + no Italian dubbing; that language sounds quite weird thb ;)

    and I guess that was that...Now what I DON'T LIKE:

    - game has really bad AI especially for human NPCs (randomly attacking me and not attacking me;
    them running away from me and stopping again looks kinda silly; they also don't respect the
    pathing of other NPCs, i.e. they don't move around each other properly)
    - objects in the world can hardly be interacted with, i.e. they can't be destroyed or tempered with (in
    the 1st game, you could party destroy objects inside of buildings for instance
    - The zombie animations upon them getting hit are not as versatile as in the first game; also there are
    no x-ray effects and there's no more cutting out a bit of flesh at the hips (lol) like you could in the
    first one --> overall less gore and worse ragdoll physics - also enemies sometimes are whirled
    through the air upon relatively weak hits
    - many clipping errors, like groups of zombies constantly clipping into each other
    - some really hilarious bugs like a human spinning his torso like he wanted to imitate the exorcism of
    Emily Rose (actually this is more what I like about the game because it made me laugh pretty hard)
    - I really don't care about the story, and the protagonist (so far); also I don't like that they seemingly
    put quantity over quality and just wanted to have a really long (tedious) story;
    - the graphic style is too colourful in general; the first one just had a better and more oppressing and
    therefore fitting (when talking about a zombie apocalypse) vibe and atmosphere to it

    In a nutshell, I wouldn't recommend the game to lovers of the first game. Again, that depends on what kind of aspects you loved about the first game. If you mainly liked the parkouring and the crafting aspect of the DL1, this could be for you. But in Dying Light 2, too many compromises were made, which doesn't make for as raw and intense of an experience as the first game was. On top of that the programming in general seems flawed in this one and there is not enough attention to detail    … Expand

The world building is incredible, seriously it's so cool the day/night cycles and the differences between them. Flying on the paraglider around these huge skyscrapers with green groves on the roof tops, and on the ground it's all dead trees because everyone now has to live on top of buildings and build their houses on top of building to stay away form the infected.

    The story is not bad. It's actually pretty good, with great set pieces, interesting characters. It's very engaging.

    The choices you make do have an impact on your experience. You literally will have entirely different missions depending on what you choose. There is like ten different paths to take in the middle and 3 endings. This game reminded me of a bethesda game except the gameplay was actually good.

    Dying light 2 builds on what the first game did well. The combat is fun. The parkour is fluid and the world is diverse. The story is pretty predictable as it was in the 1st game but it makes up for it with gameplay.

    Dying Light 2: Stay Human looks more like a DLC to the first game than a whole new one. This does not mean it is a bad game, but it is not one that you should rush to buy. It looks and feels like you are playing the same Dying Light from years ago, and despite the storytelling being solid and entertaining, it is not enough to justify buying it right now.

    Delivering a huge improvement on the first title, but lacking with new features, Dying Light 2 Stay Human is quite fun, brutal, rewarding and a game of exceptional quality when it comes to the open world. Minor issues still exist here, but Techland successfully manages to live up to the hype surrounding the game.
