Honestly I have given the Hell House movies a chance after really liking the first one, bit I've found the sequels to be less atmospheric. With Origins, we get more background on the Abaddon hotel and what might have caused the events of that night. And for fans, that's admirable versus trying different off shoots. However, the acting is really pretty bad and the scares are a tad predictable. It's missing the damp creeping horror that defined the original as a cult classic, but it gets the closest out of all the sequels.

The original Dying Light was interesting, atmospheric and at times tense. You could explore, get creative with finding ways around zombies and create traps, all which felt genuinely satisfying. In Dying Light 2, I couldn't help feeling forced into a certain path and bogged down by boring dialogs and bland character development. For the PS5, the graphics are pretty bad and the game play is anything but smooth. I didn't really want to even continue playing this game because it was so tedious and boring. I'm amazed at how many people enjoyed this game and found it acceptable by modern console standards, but hey to each their own.

Boring soulless try hard game with over the top glitches which make one wonder how such a mess made it through quality assurance.
