This game is ok, itโs not great, but not bad. If this was a stand alone game then I may consider rating it better, however it isnโt.
I played through dying light 1 for the past week and I can honestly say that that was the better game of the 2. It feels like they just made your character weaker, slowed the parkour down, and removed the abilityโs and weapons that made dying light 1 great.
I was really hoping this game would be amazing, but unfortunately it just isnโt. Most mechanics that they have added in are more of an annoyance than improvement, such as the stamina usage for climbing, which just makes it inconvenient to get around early on (which just takes from the fun). Also the most annoying mechanic they have introduced is the infected timer to get to a UV lamp, literally the only thing that this does is stop you from having fun at night or in buildings.
As mentioned though this game is not bad, it does look quite nice and feel much more fluent (in terms of parkour), it also has a fun-ish melee combat system.
In conclusion I wouldnโt recommend this game if you wanted to play a new dying light, but if you like RPG style combat then you might enjoy this.
