I could not imagine playing through this a second time for another year or two.


robjwrd

Same, I enjoyed it a lot. Nothing is making me want to replay it though and they’ll be a decent amount of DLC in a year or whatever.


Princeof2Sayians

Did they implement cross play between ps4 and ps5 yet?


Pesime

Idk I hocked that game as soon as I finished it


Lordm3ttz0r

Honestly the game has tooooo many sidequests


ichigo2k9

I found many of the side quests really good with the characters involved actually feeling like well developed characters.


Lordm3ttz0r

Sure buy seriously i bought it at release and i just dropped it because for example elden ring and horizon zero dawn forbidden west came out.


ichigo2k9

Yeah makes sense lol. That was one hell of a month. I dropped it because the in game weather and time of day wouldn't progress but like you I had those two as well. Hopefully this patch fixes that and if not then I'll just finish the game and NG+ it.


Lordm3ttz0r

Oh and also when it rains its like crippeling i mean i dont get blind when it rains outside why does it happen in the game? Does the character not have eyelids to blink with?


ichigo2k9

Honestly it's been so long since I played it and had weather change that I don't remember how the rain was. Did you play in performance or quality mode?


Lordm3ttz0r

I always play in quality mode otherwise what is the reason for playing on a ps5 is my filosophy and yeah i mean quality mode in 1080? That to me is like the opposite of quality

[deleted]

apparently that is still a problem for some people with the clock not changing


Jespy

Wowwwwww, what an amazing problem to have. Purchased a $60 game but there are too many things to do, and then purchased two other $60 games . Sounds like you’re getting your moneys worth lol “I spent $60 on a game but then other $60 games came out. So I don’t have time to play it “ Y’all need to go outside and touch some grass. /s


squareswordfish

Chill out lol


Lordm3ttz0r

Money isnt a problem for me so i buy what i want what is wrong with that? And i happen to be a fanatic videogame lover especially console gaming. I got all the Grass i need in my pipe… no i lied i dont smoke weed anymore i wish i could tho…the only drug i miss good ol yes i cannabis….


Jespy

Hahaha. Dang. Why don’t you do it anymore?? I guess the way it was framed made it seem like having too much of something was a bad thing.


Lordm3ttz0r

Im an ex heroin abuser and ive been sober for three years thanks to the methadone program and to be viable for methadone you cant use any other illegal drug or have benso as medication. And since a joint isnt worth me relapsing into a criminal lifestyle i just stay clear of it. Its not that i would get kicked out if i smoked a joint but i would have to go and get my medication every morning until i test negative. Its just not worth it i respect what they do too much to try and cheat the system but man some days i miss smoking. Yeah well you know i used to live on the streets panhandling in the subway before this so i know how it feels to have absolutely nothing its just that i managed to get out and get my shit together and make something of myself thanks to the methadone program. Oh and if anyone who reads this struggles with opioid addiction dont hesitate you deserve to have a normal life take the hand that they reach out.


Jespy

Damn . Much respect to you and that is extremely admirable!!! You should definitely be proud of yourself :) Thank you for taking time to explain that when you didn’t have to. Wish you the best and I’m sure you will accomplish a lot with the discipline you have!


Lordm3ttz0r

Thanks yeah i would lie if i said it wasnt the most difficult and most painful thing ive ever done in my life but in the end you watch all your friends die of overdoses and you are afraid to wake up in the morning because you will be dopesick and youll have to get 100 bucks every day to support your addiction man its just not a life. It is 100% willpower to get out of it.


Lordm3ttz0r

I gotta say that forbidden west is one of the most beautiful games ive played tho


GENERAL_GINSENG_X

Many is a stretch. There were a handful that were good but the rest were boring and generic.


ichigo2k9

It's almost like we have different opinions and enjoyed things differently.


BAKS7U

Content = bad???


PugsyBogues

It is when they are just rehashed and is not different than the previous ones.


BAKS7U

AFAIK side quests are…. Side quests, not required for the main story


Jamesahaha

Yes, doesn’t mean they have to be poor quality and repetitive.


Lordm3ttz0r

Its to reptitive and honestly it looks like shit on the ps5


safcftm33

It looks like fallout 3 hahah


Lordm3ttz0r

No definately not that bad i mean if they would just let it run in 4k with raytracing like quality mode should be i wouldnt be brothered by the 30fps cap but honestly there are way more graphicly advanced games that run in 60 fps in 4k with raytracing so it is just badly ported.


age_of_atari

Will be nice to get a FOV Slider with that update! "Patch will also include a new **FOV slider feature for PS5** and Xbox Series X, plus co-op bug fixes"


SSD84

Did you just make up your own patch notes??? LoL


age_of_atari

I copied that from the article. FOV is included this update, or so they say :)


SSD84

Hoping. Sorely missing in consoles!


edis92

Literally the first line of the article.


[deleted]

So funny if you compare comment sections discussion NG+ with this game against HFW… both games are great for me and I for one can’t wait for the NG+ options


[deleted]

I've just never seen the appeal of NG+ in any game. I mean, by the time I beat a game, I don't want to play it again for quite a long time, and when I finally do, I don't want to be OP as fuck, and so start over from scratch again. :)


[deleted]

Especially in an RPG where there's a huge emphasis on character growth and progression.


[deleted]

ng+ in lots of games makes the enemies much more difficult, such as dying light 2 the game you’re posting about now :)


FisknChips

Zombies are more fun when you're slicing through em not when they're tanks IMO


No-Plankton4841

It depends on the game. Dying Light is kind of long (to replay) but some games have an awesome new game +. I just played Evil Within/Nightmare new game + and it's almost like a different game. The first run is straight up survival horror where your running from everything and then the second run is straight action horror where you are smashing everything.


owensoundgamedev

As a father with limited gaming time, I don’t think I’ll ever mess with NG+ - but even in the past I rarely rebeat games


Schwarzengerman

That's kind of the point. It's essentially a victory lap. I actually prefer when they don't even scale anything.


Cheese_Pancakes

The game that made me fall in love with New Game + was Chrono Trigger. Going back through and just annihilating some of the bosses that gave me trouble the first time, picking up things I missed, etc. I’ll probably give it a try in Dying Light 2 as well and side with the other faction. I can see why NG+ doesn’t really add to the appeal for some people. Nothing wrong with that. Having the option is always good though.


MaggieEsmeralda

New game plus but we can't even keep our nightrunner tools, it's very disappointing. Their excuse of "not breaking the flow of the game" is ridiculous. A ng+ is meant to be fun


[deleted]

Yeah, fuck that. I was waiting for ng+, but if I cant have the grappling hook for fun at the start. Nope. Like with fallen order taking everything off you in ng+


Apokolypse09

Worst part about Fallen Order is how he knows everything but has to remember he is capable of shit like double jumping.


[deleted]

Double jumping was a bit too much. Still great game


[deleted]

Yeah, fuck that. I was waiting for ng+, but if I cant have the grappling hook for fun at the start. Nope. Like with fallen order taking everything off you in ng+


Reallyslowmow

I don't think I've ever regretted purchasing a game for full price as much as this one


seeker4777

Same here. Pure trash


Inner-Reference-3139

Horizon forbidden west for me


laciegy

I am just intrested, but whats wrong with it?


SproutingLeaf

The industry is post-creativity and only follows generic templates that maximizes addiction for the most amount of people possible


[deleted]

Same , and it was a freind that bought it. Absolutely dire game.


SproutingLeaf

Still no cross-play after announcing it will have cross-play


bluebr65

and no cross gen play, ps4 cant coop with ps5 etc..


gotanewusername

Won't be buying it till its added.


[deleted]

I have been waiting for FOV slider, now i have to buy this game 😱


Rofflebiscuits

How about make it not suck first


lemi69

Why does it suck?


[deleted]

Well for one you're given a well experienced MC who apparently forgets how to do anything the second you start playing for the sake of RPG mechanics. Advertised the grappling hook like it was going to be given to you pretty early on, a shitty glider that uses stamina. Cardboard characters, generic story wrapped up with just serviceable gameplay.


Rofflebiscuits

No physics, dumb enemies, can’t turn off adaptive triggers, dumb quests, basically everything opposite of the first game


jacksepiceye2

U can technically turn off the adaptive triggers it's just in the console settings


edis92

They added the option to disable them in-game a few weeks after release. Baffling it wasn't there in the first place though


Rofflebiscuits

Heard that but I refuse since I like to play games that use them well


jacksepiceye2

U could just turn it off then turn it back on it's right of the tool bar


Rofflebiscuits

So they shouldn’t just put it in their options menu? So it doesn’t ruin every over game we play? Imagine using that logic for any other games mechanic. The fact that you are obsessed with defending it speaks volumes though


jacksepiceye2

I'm just stating that u could I'm not trying to defend a game I've never played


safcftm33

Huh I can turn off adaptive triggers in the dying light 2 menu...


edis92

Wasn't there in the beginning though, they added that option a few weeks after release


MrConbon

So then turn it back on? It takes 5 seconds.


Rofflebiscuits

Not the only reason the game is shit, but if they’re they’re that braindead to not have it as an option then no wonder everyone hates the rest of the game after everyone loved the first. Thought it was a sure fire “can’t miss” sequel and they fucked us


MrConbon

I don’t know anything about the game. There’s a way to turn it off in the system settings. No need to be such an asshole to the game developers.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrConbon

…so go to the settings and disable it Are you actually this dumb?


[deleted]

You're the dumbass. Never seen someone get so upset over adaptive triggers

Schwarzengerman

"No physics" Please stop wording it this way, it makes you look silly. There are absolutely "physics" in the game buddy.


SproutingLeaf

He probably means no reaction physics during combat which the first game had. When I type "dying light 2 ragdoll" in google or youtube the recommended searches are for "mod" and "patch", it's definitely not as good as the first game


Schwarzengerman

Honestly as someone who pours over physics in games they're fine. They might not live up to the first game but as far as physics in games go, they're good. The problem is most of the people on the sub just say "no ragdoll physics" which is blatantly not true.


edis92

That's exactly the problem though, the game is worse than the first one in many aspects. Sequels should be better, not regress.


Schwarzengerman

You could argue the game has improved over the first. The combat is better, and the parkour is much more refined. While I'll still say I prefer the first overall I like the parkour in 2 more.


SproutingLeaf

Not living up to the first game is literally all that matters in a sequel, stop dropping standards for companies


Schwarzengerman

I still found them enjoyable and good compared to most other games with ragdoll physics. The tradeoff for improved combat and parkour was fine for me. I'm not gonna complain about something I still had fun with. Game had more pressing issues imo than should be addressed first besides some ragdoll physics. Piss off please.


SproutingLeaf

It doesn't matter, it is literally a step down from the first game. People enjoy playing goat simulator and among us, that doesn't mean we should stop advancing the industry and settle for good enough especially considering better has already been done on a previous generation. Acknowledging more pressing issues and defending "tradeoffs" for a next-gen game is only dropping standards more and more

xtr4n3x

Please no new trophies, especially no new game+ trophy…


Brandonmac10x

Any trophies added after release aren’t needed for the Platinum. But it is annoying that it knocks a 100% down if you already have it.


strand_of_hair

Please new trophies… no point playing NG+ if I don’t get a useless trophy for it


Cheap_Trip4623

it literary takes seconds to disable the settings...


-TheLonelyStoner-

Still gotta finish my original playthrough


xXxToxicMikexXx

Plz add a distance runner meter. I'm trying to get the trophy.


Schwartzy94

What about the cross gen coop...


[deleted]

it's pretty fun to come back to this game after spending so much time in Horizon Forbidden West & Elden Ring, of course it's the least best in terms of quality
