DYING LIGHT 2 STAY HUMAN

Dying Light 2_10

Dying Light 2 deserves a lot of credit for how it designs its open world around its core parkour mechanics, and there’s no denying that making your way through its intricately designed environments always feels fun. But yet again, this is a world that’s larger than it needs to be, and it’s filled with far too much filler content that the game honestly would have been far better without. Grinding out all of its checklist-style side activities and side quests might allow the game to pack in over a hundred hours’ worth of content, but Dying Light 2 doesn’t stop and ask itself if a significant portion of that content is even worth engaging with.
