Dying Light

I actually like Dead Island a little more than this, bugs and all. At least DI just does what it does, Dead Island's parkour sometimes gets in the way of itself and there were still other flaws when I played this. Still a fun game to play with someone though.

What Dead Island was trying to be.

Too much horror at nights :( couldn't play it for long, but it felt great parkouring and slashing.

Errand boy the game. Story is cheesy & stupid. NPCs & side quests are generic & boring. Melee weapons break easily. Melee combat is VERY unsatisfying against fast zombies/enemies that dodges or w/ tons of HP. Guns are OP w/ satisfying headshots; encounter only 2 guns... Parkouring are a good addition*. I like exploring & getting loot, but 99% useless so waste of time to loot. Negatives: long distance from point A to point B, *long climbing animation, hate climbing towers, hidden interactions.

Dead Island was better. I don't like zombies that climb and I don't want to do nonstop parkour.

Love serious co-op stories.

A really good multiplayer game marred by lacking invert-x.

Really good zombie survival horror sandbox game but it does get rather samey after a while.

A solid zombie game, takes the good parts of Dead Island and adds in some Mirror's Edge 1st person parkour.
