    Techland's vast blockbuster buckles under its own ambition and lacks in innovation, but makes up for it with outstanding parkour and combat. [Eurogamer Recommended]

    Techland really is an astonishing studio. Funnily enough, we were amazed by Dying Light 2’s narrative and roleplay even though we had reservations about it and were disappointed by the map design and certain gameplay mechanics, elements which we took for granted until now. Nevertheless, we salute the absolute dedication of an artist’s vision that oozes in the whole game design and the risk-taking to update the gameplay after the first episode’s overwhelming success. Even if the game doesn’t reach the expected heights, it allows Techland to move upwards, which is promising for the future, so let’s meet again in 5 years! In the meantime, Dying Light 2 remains one of the last very good representatives of an open-world formula that marked the previous generation but is at risk of aging badly in the years to come. Enjoy it now, because we had a lot of fun playing it and also because the next big game that will shake things up is yet to be announced.

    graphics has been heavily downgraded, it looks ugly!!! DL1 was a joy for our eyes, very beautiful graphics, very well optimized and oh thatgraphics has been heavily downgraded, it looks ugly!!! DL1 was a joy for our eyes, very beautiful graphics, very well optimized and oh that wonderful scary soundtrack! What about DL2? Nothing of that, just mediocrity, it seems this game was developed with no care just to make profits from DL1 fans but players all around the world are very unhappy about this game, can't keep up with the Hype they created and as a zombie adventure it plays bad and it's irritating… Full Review »

    This site is extremely unfair and hypocritical, people who pointed out that Denuvo is a problem, got all their reviews removed, yes you readThis site is extremely unfair and hypocritical, people who pointed out that Denuvo is a problem, got all their reviews removed, yes you read that right, all their reviews for other games as well, no matter if they were well written positive reviews or not. At the same time there are 100s of games that have thousands of bot reviews, like Cyberpunk 2077, but do they remove these? No they don't, because this site is extremely hypocritical. This shouldn't be happening. I will film this and put on Youtube, if anyone dares to remove this review, i have so many videos of bots upvoting Sony games with 1000 positive reviews in 1 hour (clearly bots from Asian region, who never even played the game and sometimes they forget to translate their review, sometimes they post so fast that instead of 10/10 that they wanted to give they give 0/10 and so on. I have so much evidence that this kind of manipulation with user scores is happening here, so i say it again, dare to remove this review and will post ALL THE VIDEOS, i have over 500 000 subscribers, it will be very easy to get the word out.… Full Review »
