    Very boring, very ugly, and very annoying. I loved the original Dying Light and this game is horrible by comparison. Avoid this one and stick with the original.

O jogo peca muito naquilo que é seu diferencial que é a falta de verticalidade pra fazer o pakour. Na segunda etapa a verticalidade aparece, mas ela é sempre mal distribuída. No DL1 tinha altitudes que se você tivesse o gancho chegaria rápido mas não te impossibilitaria de não conseguir. Itens de residências elementares achei totalmente desnecessário, não usei nenhum. Poucos personagens são interessantes. Reciclagem de ambientes é nítido, repete bastante. Mesmo depois de um ano ainda tem alguns bugs. Infelizmente a sequência não faz jus em tudo que o o DL1 fez. Torcemos que no próximo game possamos esquecer esse DL2. E sentir novamente tudo que o DL1 nos proporcionou. Expand

    Unplayable, my PC is dying - the game name was spot on. It's not possible to have a game at that price in this condition.

    Was going to buy it (really enjoyed first Dying Light), but I will not, since personally I do not buy games with Denuvo. I am an honest person willing to pay even full price, not a criminal, and I do not like when someone treats me like a thief or a pirate.

    I honestly didn't see such a stupid story and design, the city in the game is surrounded by huge walls, so people who have lived there for over 15 years have not been able to clean the streets and buildings of zombies but have chosen to live on roofs where trees grow out of nowhere what a idiot directed the game ??

    What has happened to the Gaming Development industry? Is this what they call a finished product? Are they proud of this? Did they just make this to make money and forget about it?

    The graphics are OK, the sounds are OK, the gameplay..ehh..the story.. what story? It's as generic as it gets. The game is super glitchy and unfinished. The enemies and friendly NPCs all move around awkwardly

    Is the game fun? Kind of? As long as you can make fun of it and just follow quests WITH A FRIEND. By yourself? Go play Days Gone or almost any other BETTER open world and/or zombie game.

    I also do NOT understand why devs feel the need to add the work f**k into every sentence either. Good writing requires a bigger dictionary.

    1. Unplayable on "Quality" or "Resolution" modes due to how slow and sluggish the gameplay becomes.

    2. Performance Mode looks blurry and undetailed and still suffers from lots of major frame drops. 3. Tons of bugs, several of which are gamebreaking. 4. Extreme amounts of copy+paste. Most areas look more or less identical, even down to minor details like where bags and containers
    1. Unplayable on "Quality" or "Resolution" modes due to how slow and sluggish the gameplay becomes.

    2. Performance Mode looks blurry and undetailed and still suffers from lots of major frame drops.

    3. Tons of bugs, several of which are gamebreaking.

    4. Extreme amounts of copy+paste. Most areas look more or less identical, even down to minor details like where bags and containers are placed. It basically feels like you're just clearing out the same area over and over again.

    5. The parkour, the most fundamental part of this game, is wonky at best. Expect to randomly fall (often to your death) just because your character decided to not grab a ledge when he should, or get stuck on a wall because he grabbed something he wasn't supposed to. This is irritating beyond words during any of the myriad of parkour challenges/sidequests littered throughout the game.

    6. One of the choices in the game permanently lock you out of an entire district of the map, and there's no indication whatsoever that this will happen. You can swim in the area to grab a few chests, but it's extremely slow and any enemies or other encounters you would normally run into in there will be unavailable to you unless you replay the entire game and make a different choice.

    7. When an enemy calls for reinforcements, they can spawn out of nowhere right next to you and attack you immediately, meaning you won't have the chance to finish looting that chest or whatever you were doing when it happened.

    8. Human enemies dodge a lot, and they're immune to damage while they do it. It isn't unusual for them to keep dodging one attack after another, and you won't be able to hit them until they decide to stop. You can still hurt them by using AOE attacks (such as grenades) or a ranged weapon, but the former will alert zombies and other enemies, and the latter are extremely rare, have limited ammunition and deal low damage compared to the melee weapons.

    9. Hitboxes are godawful. Even if there's an obvious distance between you and an enemy, they're usually able to hit you with attacks that would be a clear miss under normal circumstances.

    10. There are trophies for maxing out your Health and Stamina respectively, but you can only do one per playthrough, so you're forced to go through the whole game twice. You can kinda circumvent this by save scumming, but that would require you to not upgrade your Health and Stamina until late in the game, effectively locking yourself out of using most of the Parkour and Combat skills and thus make playing even more of an annoyance than it already is.

    11. Permanently missable sidequests and collectibles, which are required for trophies.

    Every aspect of the game is worse than the first Dying Light despite the graphics which are better but not that better.
    - The story is a plothole itself
    - technicaly the game is mediocre: The animations look way worse than in the first one, killing moves, parkour all of them. - THERE ARE NO ZOMBIES. In the first one you couldn't go through the streets because they were really crowded

    Overall, the game looks outdated since it looks like a 2013-14 ubisoft sandbox game with no soul.
    So disappointed.

    I purchased the Ultimate edition when it first launched because I was such a big fan of Dying Light and the Following. This game was such a huge let down.

They replaced the volatiles with basically a zombie wanted system where somehow the zombies can magically teleport ONTO the rooftops.

The grappling hook was more fun to use in DL1 then the paraglider in DL2 in my opinion. The changes that bother me the most are the changed physics of combat and the zombies. Weapons were more satisfying to use and zombies had way better physics. One good change was the removal of guns i think melee fits the game better. Expand

    History ... HISTORY! Oh my **** god! How weak it is! I was hit in the mouth 20 times when in cutscene before I started a fight / duel. Run out of ideas? Any of you play RPG, ever? Your script grind my gears. The NPC loses the radio, so that the opponents can find her trail because of that, and she is using that radio after a few secs - **** logic! You go to the observatory, take strong, special blockers so that all this chemistry does not melt you down in the blink of an eye. What is Lauan doing? She is rescuing you in no time, just like that. But you dear player survive direct hit from fooking missile! Nobody wants to get a skyscraper? You get tired for 20 minutes, then Lauan flies to your rescue and after 30 seconds he is next to you.

    Sometimes I was surprised how the action was going because I chose an answer that completely did not match what happened moments later. Spoiler alert! As with the final scene. And the last boss... the last boss!! I was so BORED! 4 stages of bordom and stupidity.

    The characters are shallow, the acting sucks like hell. The game is too short, the spheres of influence don't matter, the choices are not worth **** and the whole thing just sucks. 2/10 + 1 point for not having Italian language.

    Good luck next time

At the beginning i must say that i played just 4 hours, so i finished prologue and i immediately went out to smash some zombies. My first reaction after beating some of them was like: "no way". I knew they deleted ragdoll system from DL1 but i never expect this disaster - now u are just smashing them like in Dead Island and i don't know why it remains me also 7days to Die instead of Dying Light. I have totally no fun in fighting zombie at all, i was just spamming left mouse button and sometimes healing - that's the whole combat system, awful. Fighting against humans is more entertaining than in DL1 but to be honest i think that if they would add pairing to DL1 combat style it would be already better than this. About a parkour - i hate that i can't sprint whenever i want, probably parkour might be better when u unlock more skills but it clearly simplified compared to DL1 i guess just to make game easier for kids (*for me same thing like EA did BF2042) and it feels TOO SLOW. City look's also simplified and i felt like there is just few routes to go when in first one i was making my ones. New night system a.k.a chase stars from GTA might be a not that bad, expect that night in DL1 was so much better. Game lost this atmosphere of danger and the whole game looks totally no sandbox but like scripted RPG game and it's not on Witcher's 3 level. In my opinion they get rid of things that was keeping me in DL1 for years instead they gave my totally basic combat system with lack of animations and changing the all rules how zombie works in sequel compared to original one (zombies are inside at days, leaving at night + u can meet Volatiles when u gain chasing level) are very freakin bad. How u can get rid of core of franchise? I loved the momentum when i saw full streets of zombies in DL1 and i liked to watch when they were falling over everything. Im not gonna judge on optimization but on RTX 2060 on medium-high without RTX i have like 50-70 fps, playable. There are some glitches ofc but they will fix that i guess. What i don't like about graphic, it seems more cartoonish - it's not on Borderlands Level but i prefer more "realistic" DL1 style. City looks imo bad, no chance vs Harran. About music? I don't know, first theme in prologue gave me that minecraft feeling, in best case fantasy RPG game like PIllars of Eternity - but again, world looks so empty like in izometric RPG where only your actions have impact. It's not living at all. For these who liked same things like me in DL1 - think twice about bying it. BTW. better start on hard, there is totally no challange on normal Expand

    After 7 years in development. Multiple delays, and a last final push on building hype. Dying light 2 truly fails to deliver on just about every aspect the first game did.

    Almost all areas of the game have been gutted and what new things they have added are just surface level at best. The movemtent is slower and clunky. The beloved grappling hook from the first game has been castrated of all forward momentum, and a paraglider has been given as an alternative, which lets you pleasently float around the city safely out of reach from zombies , both of these things spectacularly combine to neuter all kinetic, frantic energy of the chases found in the first game. Night time is less lethal and less scary. They have added a "chase meter" that you need to build to level 4 before it ever becomes a threat. Essentially making you the aggressor and diluting the whole horror experience that night time was meant to be. Want a good chase? Well better go out and make a conscious effort to make as much noise as possible. None of it is organic or naturally occuring.

    the other movement mechanics aren't really built on from the first game so the whole thing just feels like a total downgrade the graphics are what they are. some areas are pleasent enough, others are laughable bad The world feels less alive than ever despite being a city with factions, its less rewarding to explore, more repetitive, and it actually feels like less places are enterable.

    The faction system is completely surface level and doesn't even attempt to go deeper The story is serviceable. Not interesting or unique, but serves as an excuse that you are in the game.

    Ultimately the while thing feels like a huge flaccid underwhelming disapointment that only serves to make you want to go back and play DL1.

    The combat sucks without guns as the first game had, its all mele slashing or stupid parkour fighting that most people don't even want to use. All that had to do was make a good story, which they didn't, and import the same fighting with a few improvements an they failed. The game bugs your saves an it lacks a new game plus

    All that had to do was make a good story, which they didn't, and import the same fighting with a few improvements an they failed.

    The game bugs your saves an it lacks a new game plus feature so if at any point your game experiences an issue it would be best to stop playing. Some of the secrets are neat but nothing is really fun about them as they are just dumb time trials.

    The game also leaves you no way to truly max out your character unless your on pc with cheat engine. I really don't see how they are going to make the game better as the story was pretty much trash all interactions are really lame

    Games are meant to be enjoyable....Right? But this on the other hand is an infuriating one.
    I usually give some pros and cons about a game but I did not find any 'PROS' about this game
    CONS
    1. Bad story
    2. Poorly optimised- 1080p@60 fps on latest consoles is downright appalling. The graphics are not that good so why is the game so demanding?
    3. Loads of bugs and glitches
    4. Poor mechanics- that too in first person will make you motion sick and might give you a headache.
    5. Lazy Side quests and way too many of them
    6. Combat- it is so bad that you will always try to avoid it.
    7. Too much filler to distract you from the hilariously bad story but even that too is equally bad
    8. And ya.....no HDR
    9. BAD voice acting

    Parkour is nice but it too gets stale after a while

    I usually try to get the maximum trophies I can, for a game. But I just gave up here. I ultimately decided to end the main story somehow and be done with it.
    Such games call for a demo to try the game beforehand.
    DO NOT PICK THIS GAME UP....I cannot emphasize this enough. Many other outstanding games came out around the same time like Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring. Try those and your money will be very well spent.
    500 hours content...clearly only quantity, no quality.

    This game is such an incredible disappointment and is everything wrong with AAA games these days. They put so much time and effort into everything except for the fun part, and clearly did not understand what made their first game so incredibly good.

They either got lucky or were better the first time, and completely failed the second time.

    The game is so incredibly clunky, slow (way too many cutscenes/dialog). The fighting is so lame being RPG style (this one is really tragic because they should have just copied how good the fighting felt from the first one instead of completely ruining it).

    I hope they take this failure and learn from it to do a proper sequel to the first, and realize they don't need high production value cutscenes/dialog/etc, they just need to make the core game fun and let the player *play* the game instead of slogging through a bunch of media.

The bugs are absolutely awful ranging from invisible characters in cutscenes or no audio in cutscenes to the deathloop bug (dying over and over upon spawning) the story is just plain awful when it gets to the end and on top of that for finishing the game you get rewarded with leveling 1/4th of the map by missiles making the areas damn near unplayable and half the map being covered by fog. Honestly such a disappointing experience and I found out that 90% of the side missions are just parkour challenges and the ones that aren’t are fetch quests, so literally nothing exciting and not worth $60. The only thing good about this game is the parkour and the aspect of choosing a faction (which they could’ve executed better). Also the last thing the skull tree is so lack luster it’s almost despicable. Most of the skills you won’t find yourself using and a lack of variety in the skills too. Expand

It doesn't at all give you the feel of the older game in terms of the atmosphere, but at least this time it has a boss fight..well the boss fight is full of bugs and the Waltz dude you have to fight can just mystically punch you the fucc out from about 10 meters away. It's a pretty game don't get me wrong but good graphics don't make up for bad gameplay. On top of that, all the survivors and enemies themselves are either weird or just plain dumb as **** They don't at all give you a sense of "oh OK this here is a bad mf I best watch myself now" nah they just drool and wait for you to do stuff. It's just another let down game building off the success of the previous. Everything is like a crappy emulated version of what it used to be, the grapple hook used to be dope like a great value spider man now all the hook does is let you dangle like sweaty nuts on a hot day. Plus their new boomstick replacement for guns is lame lame, where is my golden double barrel? I don't give any ****s about them wanting more medieval fighting or their in-game monument I want a blicky to violate the violitiles.

    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.

    Good attention to characters and dialogs. Nice parkur system. Now the bad things. You can't repair weapons. So only way to repair is to upgrade weapon. Upgrades are limited and for most part are useless. So they wasted all attention to weapon design because you use weapons like a junk that will break And you have no guns. I

I can imagine zombie game without guns. My mark is 1 for the game. It's huge disappointment.

    Terrible sequel, the first was so much better. Not sure why they removed all the cool stuff from the original but this game shouldn't even share the same name. Honestly, night time use to fill you with dred as the Virals would hunt you down and chase you, and you stood no chance in hell against them. So going out at night was terrifying.

Hence the name dying light. Going out at night is a death sentence. In the sequel night time is no different from daytime. Just run around slap stupid weak zombies and collect lame under powered and unexciting gear. Even the hang glider is lame. Just boring as hell. I was not going to rate this game. But people should be warned this is no dying light. Get the original with all the dlc for a fraction of the price and you will have a much much better game. Guaranteed. Stay away from this cash grab, far far away is my advice. Expand

    This game is STILL a broken and buggy mess on the PS5. Side quests glitch and don’t work, the characters are boring, and the parkour (THE WHOLE POINT OF THE GAME) is floaty and a downgrade. This game is lazy and unfinished.

    The game has serious issues. first off the "side quests" are nothing more than Fetch Quests and get boring fast, "Go there get this and return" so boring. The bugs, there are way too many bugs in this game and honestly Techland are stupid for dropping this game so early, needed at least another 4 months in development, there are also major issues with a few trophies not popping. such asThe game has serious issues. first off the "side quests" are nothing more than Fetch Quests and get boring fast, "Go there get this and return" so boring. The bugs, there are way too many bugs in this game and honestly Techland are stupid for dropping this game so early, needed at least another 4 months in development, there are also major issues with a few trophies not popping. such as the "Hurzlich Wilkommen!" trophy and the "Get Outta My House" trophy. The infected are too easy to fight and usually die in one hit they mostly stand there and stare at you rather than attacking you "Pacifist Zombies" me and my friends call them, Further more the chases at night are also boring, the game just spawns a few dozen howlers in the streets and if they spot you, you usually get a few weak infected that chase you down and do 1HP if they can hit you that is. The Parkour, i die more from weak Parkour physics than i do from actual infected (i've not once been killed or downed by infected) The Running and jumping is great but the actual climbing needs work. All together i don't think this is a game i can be bothered to finish, it's a weak follow up to the previous game which had much better protagonist and characters which were funny and iconic, where as the characters in Dying Light 2 were boring and just had no personality, just like Aiden. also this game is not even pushing next gen standards at only 1080p60fps on Playstation 5 when the console could easily run at 4K60fps Expand

    Banality with a cheap, primitive story. One point for improved control. Degradation.

    Я реально не знаю, что можно сказать об это игре, потому что это пустышка.
    Вся игра это такой забавный прикольный симулятор паркура, но больше ничего интересного в этой игре нет.
    Персонажи пустые, в них нет души, тебе на них насрать. Очень неуместная и сопливая драма, которая заставляет тебя не плакать, а смеяться над тем, насколько глупо, что смерть едва знакомого персонажа

    Очень неуместная и сопливая драма, которая заставляет тебя не плакать, а смеяться над тем, насколько глупо, что смерть едва знакомого персонажа сопровождается грустной музыкой и страданиями главного героя. В первой части это было сделано лучше, адекватнее.
    Главный герой - просто набор фраз и странных решений с очень смешным голосом в русском дубляже. Диалоги - главный пьедестал позора этой игры. Как пример, двое мужиков приходят к механику с претензией о поломке брони. Он им отвечает, что он сделал броню из титана чтобы она была прочной и лёгкой и что она не могла сломаться. Те двое ушли довольные с фразой, мол, ладно, проверим. Если вы ничего не поняли, не переживайте, я тоже, потому что все диалоги этой игры построены именно так, а именно очень глупо.
    Сюжет вообще ни о чём, квесты скучные, а финальный босс это какие-то аниме бои.
    Если хотите попрыгать по красивому городу - покупайте. Для других целей эта игра не годится..

    C'est typiquement le genre de jeu qui ne nous donne plus envie d'acheter les jeux Day One mais d'attendre un an pour les payer moins cher, et surtout : FINI ! Entièrement jouable !
    Mais non ! Les studios continuent de nous sortir des jeux à moitié terminés et ça devient insupportable pour ceux qui sont là pour l'acheter dès le début et ainsi contribuer au succès d'un jeu qui pour le moment ne le mérite pas !

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Day one player of the first game. Waited 7 years for this **** joke. At least one crash every hour, boring unoriginal campaign, unenjoyable boss fights, repetitive combat. I mean come on, the final boss fight of the game, the culmination, featured a 3 tier boss fight, with the boss reusing the same three voicelines every 3 seconds, about a thousand times, non stop. What a **** joke. Expand

    I wish games were released in a presentable condition these days.

    This is another botched release, akin to Cyberpunk 2077 and Battlefield 2042.

    Unless you want to throw even more money at them, make sure you don't get the special or deluxe edition. You can't redeem the in-game items that come with it.

    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.

    Dying Light 2 ups the ante from the original in almost every way, offering more satisfying parkour, combat and enough jump scares to make you never want to walk in the darkness ever again. A worthy and essential sequel.
