The people review bombing this game for being too hard are actually insane and clearly just absolutely horrible at the game.
You can't blame the game for you being absolutely horrible at it and not taking the time to actually learn how to dodge or block which have very very long windows for you to successfully activate.
All the little children that cry every time a game isn't open world are also ridiculous not every game has to be this gigantic empty slog fest of a map where you find yourself wondering around aimlessly.
This review bombing makes me really angry honestly Dead Island 2 is the best first person melee driven combat game ever made.
