Dead Island 2

Redemption!

Oi omeander killed ma woif and took my bloody sun

Who do you Voodoo ***!!

Really fun zombie game but it was driving my nuts seeing so many locked doors or locked boxes while playing, because you have to find someone's darn key to open it.

Umm here's a suggestion developers:
I have a HUGE Sledgehammer named, "Emma's Wrath."
Let me just bust it open instead. Remember... It's a video game after all.

Regardless of my grips, the game was a ton of fun.

I recently completed the game, tackling all the side quests along the way. Overall, it's a decent game. The combat system truly shines, surpassing its predecessor by leaps. While it doesn't boast a fully open-world environment, it incorporates some open-world elements effectively. Personally, I lean towards a skill tree system, but I understand the developer's choice to employ a deck mechanic to ramp up the game's difficulty. The variety of weapon mods adds depth, allowing players to tailor their weapons and playstyles to their liking.

However, there are a few downsides, in my humble opinion:

• The game's lack of a fully open-world setting is disappointing. While the game world is expansive, fully exploring every nook and cranny requires considerable time and effort. I can't help but wish it had retained the open-world feel of its predecessor.

• The absence of human enemies such as bandits and the inclusion of outposts would have added diversity to the gameplay.

• A traditional skill tree system might have offered more nuanced character progression compared to the card deck approach.

• The original Dead Island had a somber, melancholic atmosphere that suited the genre well. While I appreciate the humor injected into Dead Island 2, at times, it felt a bit overdone.

• Personally, I longed for the tropical island setting of the original game. I believe the ideal setting for a Dead Island game would be a beautiful yet eerie island in Africa, South America, or Southeast Asia.

Nevertheless, I must commend Dumbester Studios for developing the game and keeping the flame alive for its fans. Despite its flaws, the game offers plenty of enjoyment and is worth investing time in. I remain hopeful for a Dead Island 3 in the future, with a return to the tropical island atmosphere and the expansiveness of an open world.

Genuinely one of the most boring, lifeless games i have played. I understand it went throigh developer hell but it still is the most basic zombie game ever. It's like it was made by ChatGPT. Combat sucks, enemies are damage sponges. All weapons work the same regardless of their type, mod, perk, etc. They all resume to spamming R2. Fall damage is ridiculous, zombie respawn rate is ridiculous. How is it that in a zombie game there is no point in killing zombies, because they respawn as soon as you turn around. Leveling up is ridiculous, because despite waiting for more than 10 years, the game itself turned out very short. And tp artificially expand game time, they level up the zombies each time you complete a mission. The problem is your character doesn't level up that fast, so you need to kill A LOT of zombies so that your weapons dont turn into marshmallows that do zero damage. And I think that is the cheapest, dumbest way to increase game duration. AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF the story just sucks, all characters are bland or annoying and every dialogue feels like it was written by a 50 yr old trying to be "cool".
I just hate this game, and I'm baffled that most people enjoy it just because of that stupid gore system that you don't even notice past the first hour.

One of the best games I ever done! I can't say anything bad about it not a thing.
The story was great it made you think with your heart which is great to see in games. The gameplay was AWESOME! The upgrade system was the best, but sadly the ending kinda was hard to complete and it should be hard because it should leave a mark in your head, and that was my only complain.

Best zombie game in my opinion (of course after dying light)
