Dying Light

This game is a total time killer, I'll be playing at 1:00 and next i know it's 4:30. The game is violent but when you busting zombie heads and kicking them off buildings you feel like a total badass. The story is good and the characters are cool and controls are easy to adapt to.

This is one of the best games I have ever played in my entire existence of gaming.

GAMEPLAY:

the zombies and action packed parkour is beautiful, just running up a wall, dropping down on a zombie 20 feet above and slicing it is just awesome. leveling up is the most satisfying thing I have seen, but when you get the grappling hook from leveling up enough the fun sky rockets to a whole new level. although waiting 10 seconds or so waiting for the grappling hook to pull back all the way can get really annoying. and the competitions can be really fun sometimes

STORYLINE:

The storyline was written together perfectly. The only flaw for me was how short the story was, it was so short that I finished it in only about 3 days.

So dying light is a 10/10 for me

I have always been someone who was picky about certain games and on how good I found them. I absolutely love Survival games and zombie games and I'm a huge fan of games that take place in a post apocalyptic environment. Dying Light exceeds all of my expectations in a Survival post apocalyptic zombie game. It contains everything I looked for in a zombie game. You can search almost every building for supplies to craft and enjoy weapons of many different kinds that range from blunt weapons to rifles, you can parkour almost anything in the city and use the environment to your advantage. The gameplay mechanics are smooth, the story of Dying Light is very entertaining and the environment is so dark and terrifying which makes the gameplay all the more terrific. And the best part of it, the entire story of Dying Light can be played WITH YOUR FRIENDS in a group of up to four players. If you want a true zombie experience, this is the way to go. So grab your three closest friends and sit back and prepare for the ultimate survival challenge. With the city of Harran as your playground and the infected out for your blood, it is up to you to survive the horrors that lurk inside the city of Harran and find a cure in hopes of restoring the city to its former glory. But be warned, come nightfall, the horrors that roam the city of Harran may prove to be much more terrifying than you expect.

By Techland, the developers of Dead Island, comes Dying Light, another zombie game of them. I haven't played the Dead Island games, though this didn't stopped me by enjoying Dying Light for PC. Let's start with the good thinks the game has to offer (or at least some).

1)The game looks excellent.

2)Vibrant colors.

3)There is a nice day cycle. During night you gotta be more careful. The nights may be long 7 minutes, but in-game they don't feel that short.

4)The plot was interesting - not the best, but solid.

5)Some likable characters. From the campaign - Jade, Rahim, Crane, Bracken, from the side quests - Gazi, Jeff, Alfie, Fatin and Tolga.

6)The main quests are fun to do. The final level is awesome.

7)The side quests are also fun to do.

8)The parkour works excellent. You can climb almost everything you want.

9)Climbing antenna towers felt dangerous.

10)The game gets additional pluses for the final mission, when you're parkouring around.

11)Unlocking new skills rewards you. There isn't a skill, that feels unnecessary.

12)Climbing the bridge in the Slums is awesome.

13)The two main areas - Slums and Old Town do feel different from each other.

14)The dropkicks are awesome.

15)Plenty of weapons.

16)Killing zombies is a lot of fun.

17)Variety of enemies.

18)Lots of blueprints. I like their descriptions.

19)Throwing molotovs at zombies is really fun.

20)Throwing grenades at the zombies is also really fun.

21)The safe houses are different from each other.

22)It is fun to unlock new safe houses.

23)The battle journals are surprisingly worth collecting. They give you interesting tips for the game.

24)The notes are also a nice collectable.

25)Voice mails are also worthy to collect.

26)Entering some buildings made me feel kinda sad about what happened to the people trying to survive there.

27)Smooth gameplay.

28)I replayed the game more than once and I had lots of fun.

29)Huge fun factor.

There are probably more positive thing about the game. But why don't I dive into the things I don't like.

1)The overall AI, especially the human AI.

2)I wish more time could have been spent with characters from the main story like Brecken and Savvy.

3)I dislike some of the voice acting.

4)There was an arc of side quests where the quest givers were the brothers Tolga and Fatin. I was disappointed by the last quest.

5)I also disliked the end of the quest, where you do the Bozak challenges.

6)Some of the voice acting.

7)Some game mechanics.

Overall Dying Light is a super fun zombie video game. It has its flaws but from Bad 1 to Excellent 6 it gets VERY GOOD 5.25 - a little bit more than just VERY GOOD 5. I sure am trying Dying Light: The Following when it comes out.

I finally got round to finishing Dying Lights incredible campaign and finally feel able to judge it fairly. From the game, to all the dlc Dying Light is an astonishing feat.

This first person free roaming zombie epic was often criticised for being a Dead Island imitator, but the truth is they simply used that formula and perfected it.

The storyline is solid, the multiplayer is great and the execution is flawless.

Free running around the fictitious city of Harran is seamless, leaping from roof to roof, climbing pylons and outrunning hordes of the undead is an exhilarating experience.

The combat is unusual in that melee rarely works in first person but is the backbone of Dying Light and works perfectly. Add to that some great gunplay in a world where ammunition is highly limited and you have a great combat system.

The enemies are highly variable each with strengths and weaknesses, the appearance of one can change your entire play style from your generic slow zombies to the fast Virals and the annoying Spitters.

The difficulty balance is ideal, the amount to do outside of the main campaign is decent and the added dlc expands on an already vast experience.

Graphically Dying Light is stunning, not only are the environments and character models great but it all looks so very smooth as you're hurtling through the streets. But that's nothing until you start to climb, at a height being able to see across the city during various weathers and daytimes the beauty is near flawless.

To accompany this we have the score which you simply don't expect in a game like this. Not only is it extremely well made but it's haunting and very retro. The music in the background of certain sections are a true homage to the 70's/80's zombie classics.

Dying Light is a unique experience and I hope we see a sequel, in these uncertain days of video game developers however I question the likelihood.

The Good:

Graphics

Score

Infinetly playable

Incredible adrenaline rush when being chased or stealthing during the night

The Bad:

Some dodgy AI on zombies sometimes

The animation often shows you missing a jump before pulling yourself up

Final boss was an anti-climax

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

All fat people explode when they become zombies, it's the law of zombies in video games

You can fall from an infinite height just as long as you have a pile of garbage bags to land on

Breaking the necks of babies is fine if they're undead
