Wait, the game has a coop mode? Isn't the game like 500 hours or so they say.

The worse you are at the game, the longer it is.

Hopefully around 10 AM EST reviews will start coming in.

EDIT: Sitting around 77 with almost 30 reviews in. Looks like most of the reviews were done using the PS5, though IGN and GI used the Series X version. Bugs galore across all platforms.

Yep, sounds like a good game held back by a slew of bugs.

Think I’ll wait a month or two.

 

[TeKPhaN]

Damn! Another one bites the dust

 

[cmstophe]

It’ll be $20 by Black Friday. Snag it then.

Dying Light 2 Review: Look Before You Leap

Techland's undead sequel improves upon the strongest element of its predecessor, but things like story and characters drag it down.

I don't trust them, the first was a 9/10 game (10/10 for me).

Most are rating it bad.

probably be a day one patch to fix some bugs. Techland tend to release with bugs galore going by their history. But they have always addressed them.

Dying Light 2 review - brutal blockbuster that's inelegant but hugely entertaining

Dying Light 2 is an ugly game. Taking place some 15 years after Techland's parkour-fuelled 2015 open world original, it…

Sounds about right to me.

Yeah? You played it?

Most are rating it bad.

At Metacritic 29/45 reviews are 8/10 or above.

GamePass plz.

 

[bullzeye]

"I can't pretend to be an expert in big blockbuster games - the bloat and overstated breadth isn't exactly to my taste "

Yeah, never heard of the reviewer and this sentence makes me question the choice to let him review it.

What I don't understand is, can't they find a team of like 500 volunteers with an Xbox and PlayStation and have them go through and play the game to the end and report bugs? I mean this for any game maker. I mean, some developers put out actual betas and it makes a difference. Maybe they need to find an internal way to do campaign betas with a focus group.

Series X > PS5 in the DF video.

Woof, very disappointing, but not shocking.

 

[Pureshooter]

Series S would be a mean handheld if they could pull it off.

I guess it's good that my friend is dragging his butt on getting a new PC.

Well, it's a last gen game really.
It seems to run really well though (except it's 30fps in the best mode).

 

[Siglind]

Wouldn't be a Techland game without bugs

Still interested in picking this up.

It's 30fps lolz

It isn't the performance that is disappointing to me, just the bugs. Hopefully the Day 1 patch solves many of these issues.

Yeah, rough sledding. I could stomach 720p 60 FPS on a handheld though.

And the 1080p.
Also supposedly the story is a mess/all over the place because someone left during the development process.
