Dying Light 2 Stay Human - zombie survival with choice & consequence

[Latro]

"modern dark age"

Chris Avellone shoulda called it the "new dark age" for that Deus Ex throwback

 

[Big Wrangle]

So I told Chris Avellone to work on a zombie game, he actually did it the absolute madman hahahaha!

Where are the Zombies???

Where's your Messiah now bitches?










It's like that thing Commie said....

 

[Life of the Party]

Where are the Zombies???

My biggest complain is not even Chris working on this game, but the shape he is in. I dunno, he almost looked sick. Time to hit the gym Chris.

 

[Daedalos]

Got strong Deux Ex Mankind Divided type of game vibe from that trailer, only in the zombie setting.

Interesting I guess.

 

[Heretic]

This could actually be really good. Dying Light 1 had great gameplay but average writing and storytelling. If they keep the gameplay and improve the storytelling... This could be a very good game.

I enjoyed the first game - but really wasn't a fan of the setting. This new Eastern European setting looks awesome - and there's a nice jump in environmental detail. I'm hopeful

Come to think of it, supposedly Techland has been also working on an open world fantasy action RPG-ish thing. If it's not canceled.

Obsidian Revenge Projects:

Pillars of Eternity 2 -> Pathfinder Kingmaker
The Outer Worlds -> Dying Light 2

More so if he's somehow involved with Starfield.

Chris looks vulnerable. I feel for him, man. He must have gone through a lot of personal/familial hardships lately.

Let's not diss MCA. I'm glad he can still keep landing contract work after Feargus and his hyena co-founders have so unfairly ousted him of Obsidian.

I think he's gonna just be fine considering they brought him on-stage to speak at an E3 premiere, nothing to scoff at.
Meanwhile there's been 0 Obsidian presence, although the PC Gaming Show is coming later today...

Im happy, really enjoyed the first one despite it's boring plot. In my opinion it had great flow with the mix of climbing running und zombie killing. That fact that Chris Avellone now writes for them and adds C&C and dialogue choices to the game makes it one of the most interesting game of the E3. Although it is sad that a zombie game has now more RPG elements than Fallout.

Dying Light: New Vegas

 

[Squid]

I never beat Dying Light because I was too busy just running around killing things instead of worrying about the story because it was just another action open world story.

If I get this one, I might have to play the story lol.

 

[Plane Escapee]

I for one, am hyped.

Chris Avellone cheers man. Now please tell us more.

 

[Mazisky]

I really enjoyed the first one, but the city looked like a fucking favela.

This time we got a classic and more pleasant european style city, it's pretty nice

 

[Deadass]

i don't give a shit about this game, but i'll buy it just for MCA

 

[Quillon]

Dying Light was like a Ubisoft open world action game and I always thought most of those games could have been way better if they were RPGs. Techland thought the same it seems.

Can we just leave Fallout alone already? We already have plenty of great games in that setting, which you could argue was already played out after the first game. Just enjoy the old games and ignore the declined ones. I'm more excited that we got both MCA and Cainarsky bringing their magic touch to new settings.

Same. And at this point the new Fallout game is nothing like the older ones, it's more of a brand than anything. I have no qualms with this anymore. It's a different thing and if they release something like Fallout 76 and you like the way it plays that's cool. If Fallout 76 was called something else, most of this forum wouldn't talk about it like we do. It's not a cRPG, from what I've heard I feel like it's Borderlands and Rust put together. Which I'm fine with, I might even enjoy it as a game that's not a RPG. I play other games besides RPGs, this is a survival shooter with RPG-lite elements which might be a lot of fun, we'll see. I just won't view it like I would Fallout 1, 2, and New Vegas.

It is wonderful to see that you finally are receiving the recognition you always deserved, and it's more awesome to see the concept of gameplay and narrative design blending together.
Let me give you a very fitting Italian encouragement:
In bocca al lupo per tutto.

Fallout's fantastic blend of post-apoc, retro 50s sci-fi futurism is hard to replace.

I had no idea you were such a brown nosing ass kisser. Judging by your normal activity I can only assume you're after something and this is some insidious ploy of some kind.
