i've been having a lot of fun with it

the 'look behind you while free running' thing is a really neat innovation and the night vampires being super strong adds some fun challenge

idk so far its kind of like having zombies in mirrors edge which is neat

at night everything is better and stronger than you so it becomes a game of dodging attacks and outsmarting the ai which is fun but i totes get not wanting to spend 60 on it

yeah i am enjoying dying light. night time is probably the most fun part of it.

dead island is really bad and tried to be wow except with diablo 'left click to swing' mechanics. additionally, the environments were boring and bland and visually unappealing. it was a game sold on a trailer played backwards with no gameplay so lol

tl;dr : dead island is boring

This is exactly what the pedophiles at Badgame say about watching child pornography.

also hitller about the burning the jews

but unlike wormskull i don't think enjoying video games is like child porn or gas chambers

yea, the mirror's edge running around feels and works nicely, for the most part the game understands what i am trying to do. the parkour feels about 100 times better than unity, but that is not actually saying much. i've gotten to a point where there is tons of poo poo to do and im enjoying it because if i happen to try to do it at night i get to have cool chases and such.

been finding lots of decent weapons, i wonder if the loot lists are tied to your current level or im just in more difficult areas.

and you're right the crafting can be ignored pretty much completely. its nice if i just happen to have a medkit's worth of stuff with me but i never freak out and search for part x for item y

From all I've watched about this game, it would be much more fitting if the setting was medieval fantasy, and the monsters were goblins and trolls and whatnot, specially since you use so much melee and throwing weapons anyway.
The reason they use zombies is probably more about what western audiences are used to, they have to go with the winning formula.

thats a really good idea and now while playing it all i will be able to imagine is the high fantasy parkour looter i could have been playing.

that said i think that western audiences are actually "zombied out" so it might not have been the winning formula to begin with

i have been meaning to borrow shadows of mordor from my buddy but haven't gotten around to it. i hear that shits its pants in the second half as well, though, when it becomes kind of dull
