[Phunkydiabetic]

I honestly have no idea how well this game will be reviewed. It's kind of a toss up right now, years of development hell, people leaving, polish studio etc. Regardless day one, loved the first.

 

[rickybooby87]

MC 82.

 

[ElCasual]

Waiting the next gen patch for the first game to play it.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Hopeful it ends up good but am concerned...

 

[Romulus]

Low-mid 80s

 

[GHG]

I'll be very surprised if it ends up being anything other than a disaster.

 

[zcaa0g]

I think it will surprise in a good way despite all of the delays. They have a very good foundation to start with, so it's just a matter of doing more of the same, but bigger and better.

 

[IDKFA]

Wild guess

72

 

[Hey Blinkin]

I've got it pre-ordered for the Series X and just counting down the days. I loved the 1st game and I'm sure I'll love this one. Killing zombies and parkour, what's not to love!!

MC:85

 

[anthony2690]

I really hope this turns out good, as I have ordered to tide me over till elden ring lands

 

[Inviusx]

I'm looking forward to it.

MC 83

 

[MaKTaiL]

I've followed all the stages of development for this game and also DL1 is one of my favorite games from past gen. From all the previews and some leaks from reviewers, I'm fairly confident that Dying Light 2 is bound to score 90+ easily. Dying Light 1 still gets a ton of support from Techland to this day, 5 years later. I completely trust them to deliver on this. Gladly pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition and I can't wait!

 

[HellforLeather]

The original got kinda middling scores despite being a great game. So I'm not sure if reviews are going to be what people expect.

 

[Shakka43]

I expect low 80s scores which is fine by me, anything higher would be a nice surprise.

 

[JoduanER2]

90+, im expecting a surprise.

 

[Calling 911 Melts Beams]

7

 

[Halo2redvsblue]

It's Over

 

[SteelCurtain 59]

Most anticipated game of they year for me outside of "maybe" Starfield. The reviews will probably be mid 80s but unless it's a broken mess I can't really envision myself not loving this game like I loved the first oone

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

If it's simply an improvement on the first that's all I ask. The original didn't get rave reviews and was one of my favorite games that year and this is currently my most hyped game this year, can't wait.

 

[GymWolf]

Who gives a damn about reviews, it's a bigger, improved sequel of DL, that's enough for me.

Spoiler

also only paid 35 euros on pc for it

Team 70-95.

 

[lh032]

as long its an imporvement over the first, im fine.

One thing that bothers me about dying light is that the zombie seems to spawn the moment you turn your camera away

Maybe they're just shy?

They don't.

 

[lh032]

They don't.

i admit my previous post is a bit exaggerated , but if you see no zombies in an open field, try turning and walk away for a short distance and come back, they all spawn in a large group, i tried this many times.
its not a big issue but kinda break immersion for me, but they spawn way too fast, spawning radious is too small imo

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

88 with the music/sound design being praised as the standout of the game.

 

[Flabagast]

Seems to be quite bad. 75 at max

 

[nemiroff]

I'm on team Somewhere between 0 and 100, possibly 1000.

 

[DispatchNinja]

Low 80s. Can't wait.

 

[Bragr]

81

 

[LaughingStock]

I'm replaying the first game right now. I love it. Here's hoping the sequel is at least as good as the first one.

 

[DrJamesOxford]

Would be thrilled with an 8

[Von]

I'm bettin' low 80s.

Considering DL1 is one of my top 10 from last gen, DL2 could be in the high 60s and I'd still be all over this.

Can't really criticize this review without being anti-"intellectual disability"

What have i just watched

 

[Starcheif]

I am waiting on the orignall Dying light to go on sale but what edtion should I get? I was looking to get all the DLC etc.

 

[Bartski]

80-85

Seems like a game reviewers will nitpick a lot

 

[drotahorror]

Early impressions from ACG were solid.

Whaaaaat

Thought this guy was done, he's back woooo. Love his videos lol

Oh just see this LOLOLOL

 

[abcdrstuv]

They've put a lot of work into it, it's ambitious, if the writing, quests, world-changing decision-making all pan out, could be good. Parkour looks much better. Combat still looks bad. I get what they're going for, but the flat-footed slow melee swinging isn't fun. I hate weapon degradation too but that's a valid design choice.

 

[Starfield]

I think the media will give it up to 90 given the state of the industry right now. If this is a game that comes out relatively bug free and all in all "complete" it will be far better received than the shit we had to deal with in the past few months

 

[kyussman]

The first one is sitting at 74 on PS4 at Metacritic,which is nuts given some of the high scores a lot of shitty games get.....it should be at least 10 points higher.
Hopefully this second one will be the rare case of a game that had some development issues but came through in the end.....fingers crossed.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

It'll do fine. Not expecting anything ground breaking though so I'll for sure wait for a sale. I'd even be tempted to pick up the first game soon once the next gen patch drops as I never played all the DLC.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Waiting the next gen patch for the first game to play it.

Same here. It was announced a few months ago so I'd at least like a date for it. I was going to buy the first but might wait for it

 

[SLB1904]

First review is out and broke embargo.

8.62227/10

Man I completely forgot about this dude. His Bloodborne review was so good lol

 

[Elder Legend]

So far after a few hours... without saying things that I am not allowed to say I'll just say this "I am pleasantly surprised" considering this game's development history.
