    Bad game and a very over-hyped game by the press.. I had 0 fun (I found the first one very boring.. so when I watched the trailer during E3 2018 I decided to give another chance to Techland.. but wow very boring with all the quests and the main story.. seriously copy paste a lots of the locations on the map just to have a longer game and no fun exploration.. combat are so arcade and no hitBad game and a very over-hyped game by the press..

Spent 80$ on fire! Just put your money on another game than this **** who can't run 4k 30 fps on next gen in 2022.. It's juste a waste of time.. I did half of the game and I'm done lol I just deleted. No more chance for this company.... Expand

    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 ??

    I have never played a game that left me just sitting, watching the closing credits and thinking for so long. It was really indescribable experience. Techland did really good work. 10 out of 10.

    Why would Techland release such a buggy game with such a terrible story and SO much dialogue? It's just bad!

    +Fun gameplay (at very least for the first couple of hours after the prologue)
    +Nice visuals (not great, though, by far)
    +/- Meh soundtrack
    -Poor balance
    -Awful story
    -Bad sidequests
    =Just another empty soulless open-world game, but hey! - you can parkour! m'kay...
    Buy this game only on sails and only if you got nothing else to play.

    I could not wait for this game to be released. Unfortunately, this is pretty much a half finished product.

    Some of my points: - 1080p 60 fps on PS5 is unacceptable. The game looks prevgen if it was on low settings. Shadows, textures look very unappealing, in-game themes look way too colourful, oversaturated. Compared to other games like TLOU2 this look very bad. The visual
    I could not wait for this game to be released. Unfortunately, this is pretty much a half finished product.

    Some of my points:
    - 1080p 60 fps on PS5 is unacceptable. The game looks prevgen if it was on low settings. Shadows, textures look very unappealing, in-game themes look way too colourful, oversaturated. Compared to other games like TLOU2 this look very bad. The visual presentations in last year’s trailers were a lie!
    - I have encountered many bugs during gameplay (spawning, performance issues, some crashes etc.)
    - The campaign has a very promising start, story feels interesting. Later, especially at the end and it turns out to be very silly. Almost like a Brazilian soap opera.
    - There are many stupid cut scenes in which other opponents appear out of nowhere and you lose your advantages.
    - NPC-s are unable to follow you on mission, after a cutscene they teleport to next meeting location, where they need to teleport again.
    - RPG elements are mediocre.
    - There aren't many infected on the streets, which is awkward.
    - DL1 felt so much better.
    - Side missions are boring.
    - Stealth elements are meh.

    Overall, I feel let down, as I was very hyped to play it.

    My final verdict is that I cannot recommend it on full price, this game need 12 months’ worth of patch and a great discount.

    Auf der PS5 sind Missionen Verbuggt, Trophys Verbuggt, Sprachausgabe ist nicht nur schlecht, sondern ist auch Verbuggt, Tja und die Grafik ist für daß Jahr 2022 nix besonderes. Kann man mal im Angebot für nen 10er kaufen.

    dying light 2 failed in every single aspect. It's flawed, it's boring, it's a generic open world with no soul. Worst purchase in my life, totally regret

    Haven't played the game but this is in response to the numerous "no Italian translation" negative reviews. You know what I do when a game isn't in a language I speak? I just don't play it.

    So much entitlementment. Glad the Kiryu lead Yakuza games developed such a positive reputation before metacritic, or it may have gotten review bombs for only being Japanese VA.

    les commentaires des Polonais ici contre les Italiens sont vraiment inacceptables. J'espère qu'ils prendront des mesures contre les joueurs polonais qui ont écrit ici. Cependant le jeu est mauvais, je ne l'ai pas aimé. C'était un désastre d'y jouer. Plein de bugs, médiocre et vieux en tout.
    Graphismes négligés par rapport au 1er Dying Light

    DL2 is so bad I've no words to describe it. Pretty sure most positive reviews here are from Techland employees paid to give fake ratings 10 out of 10. This game's a mess of gameplay, glitches, bugs, broken saves, death loops and other garbage. They totally ruined the very good DL1

    how bad it looks like. it seems you're playing a game from 2015 with bad textures and ugly environments. Despite that it's very demanding, my rtx 3080 is hardly capable to make it run at 4k all maxed out. Damn Techland

    Techland remember that gamers will never forget. You misled us this time about the bad quality of this game but next time we will remember and not buy your games in the future. Gamers will never forget. And you misled us twice by adding that massive junk called denuvo

    don't believe the Hype created by Techland. It's all fake. And fake is the great sales success they described. The truth is games are very unhappy about DL2 because we have been deceived:

    1. graphics has been heavily downgraded from E3 version of 2019 2. the game has hundreds stupid bugs 3. animations are a joke 4. it is boring and mediocre in everything 5. can't be saved manually

    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.
