    Since I've been seeing a lot of comments about it - Guys, the bad gameplay is on purpose. It's highlighting parts of the game I failed completely at. I didn't suck at the entire game. CAS is all about playing up the failure for laughs. I don't hate Dying Light. So share in the laughter, I don't need to hear 'man, you suck at this' for the 1,000th time. Thanks.

    One word: underleveled

    • @Williaso
      @Williaso  3 роки тому +84

      We talk about it in the Real Thoughts, but the basic idea is because the game doesn't give you the items as part of the progression of the game, the game is designed to be completed without them. So it really wasn't that bad outside of a few crappy interior bits, just kind of lame.

      @jackbright2125 3 роки тому +16

      They could have just used metal armor. You can't bite through it, I don't care what kind of super strength the zombies have, teeth shatter against steel. Mail's tough as hell against piercing and slashing, to the point where slashing is completely ineffective and piercing damage is a close contender. You can thrust a blade as hard as you want against chainmail with your whole body weight behind it, you will not be able to breach the rings. There's a reason its the go-to for protection against sharks, saws, blades, etc. (There is also usually padding under it so that even if the very tip of the blade fits through the rings, it doesn't get you)
      Getting bitten in a chain suit would probably hurt, but it wouldn't pierce the skin.

      I actually liked the story. It was more than serviceable and not bad for what we were getting up to 2015. Had a lot of ‘we’ve seen this all before’ plot moments, but it was compelling enough that I was still engaged until the end. Graphics and gameplay still hold up well to this day, and it’s one of the few games still getting updates, events, bug fixes, and even full expansions, in Hellraid several months back, this late in life. Definitely makes Dying Light 2 look all the more promising. And I agree. Voice acting and mocap was solid, especially for the time where we got a lot of games with stiff animations and phoned in dialogue. I’m currently replaying Horizon Zero Dawn which came out a couple years after DL, and despite people holding Horizon to a higher regard overall, the cutscenes between these two games are night and day with Horizon feeling stiff and the voice acting phoned in.

    Commentary is great, and has a lot of fair gripes about the game. However, almost every time you complain about the game's shortcomings or mechanics, it's mostly because you're just not good at the game or because you can't read the room. The large zombie in the "battle royale" is supposed to be killed with the gas canisters by throwing the pipes you find at the containers. The end tunnel sequence is full of stuff that you're suppossed to just know how to do from the experience you got from playing the rest of the game. You're obviously supposed to grab the ladder, and you weren't able to because you didn't silence the child, which you would've known to do if you didn't brute force your way through the game. You're obviously supposed to parkour over the zombies on the raised platform, not take them all on while you have the special infected right behind you. When you complain about shit like that, it's just annoying because it feels like you're that kid in elementary school who refused to listen to instructions, and they had a tantrum when they had to face the consequences.
    TL;DR, you shouldn't try to shit on a game just because you refuse to do what the game tells you to. Funny Commentary though, like the Crane clones.

    The purpose of the arena scene is to force you to use the agility and power skills you acquired throughout the game, as well as use your environment to your advantage.

      The problem is that the game doesn't curate your abilities, so you're allowed to continue the story at what's considered "underleveled" so the game starts to become frustrating. I don't like that. I much prefer when the game gives the player the upgrades as part of story progression so that the experience is more curated to make sure you're always getting the best experience. As it is, Dying Light is built with the fact that characters won't always have every ability in mind, so the later levels end up just becoming mostly frustrating, but still completable, instead of ramping up the skill because they need to make sure that anyone can make it through if they don't happen to have certain skills unlocked.

The game wasn't about telling a gripping story grounded in reality as our humanity is put to the test, it was about sprint-jumping across buildings with impossible melee weapons from hell as the world's most terrible, lethal force of nature.
