Critic Reviews
By Gabriel Kreyssig Romualdo
Dying Light 2 is clearly inferior to its predecessor. Its story fails to excite, with disappointing characters and a soulless, depressing city that stands in stark contrast to Harran from Dying Light 1. However, the game excels brilliantly in gameplay, being even more enjoyable and fluid than the first, both in parkour and combat. For those seeking a deep post-apocalyptic experience, it’s important to note that this won’t be found here, but it’s still possible to have fun.

Dying Light 2 ups the ante from the original in almost every way, offering more satisfying parkour, combat and enough jump scares to make you never want to walk in the darkness ever again. A worthy and essential sequel.

Dying Light 2: Stay Human isn't a bad game, but it can't help but get in its own way. For all the freedom of its parkour system, you'll have to sit through cut scenes and fumble through the interior environments. For all the talk of conflict between the factions or that the choices you make matter, the game only recognizes them when it is convenient to the narrative and forgets about it entirely in the next. Much like the undead that populate the streets below, the gameplay is best avoided by sticking to the parkour as much as possible as you work toward the conclusion.

By trying to wrestle with a mixture of parkour/stealth/combat mechanics, a large open world, and reactive storytelling within a rotund narrative, it starts to buckle from its lesser elements and annoying technical problems.
