Thanks for that. I'd been on the fence about getting it in the Steam Sale, or wait until it goes down more. I think I'll wait.Bunny and I have got a lot of mileage out of Dying Light. Getting 7 years of polish and DLC for $15 bucks is an incredible deal. If you have a best bro or gal to play with I almost consider it a must-buy.
We picked up Dying Light 2 since it is discounted for the Steam Summer Sale. It was released this year so obviously it isn't going to have the polish of its predecessor but unfortunately the parkour is disappointing. Jumping feels "floaty" like you are on the moon. This article pretty much sums it up:
So far Dying Light 2 is not as scary or challenging as the original. Your dude is a helpless weakling at the start but after some improvement things quickly change. We are level 3 and already raiding Dark Hollows and Forsaken Stores by daylight (something the game repeatedly warns you not to do), rarely bothering with the stealth mechanic because it's easier to simply aggro all the infected and kill them for the sweet, sweet trophies. Don't get me wrong, the game is pretty fun in it's own right but it's not holding up to the original. I imagine things will change with polish and DLC.
