      First: How is it "underrated" ? People sure love to throw that word around a lot these days. Millions upon Millions of people love this game, GLOBALLY, how is it "underrated"?
      2nd: It's getting "loads" of recognition recently because, gee, they introduced part 2 and now part 1 is on sale all over the place. So people like me, which at first thought it was a mediocre looking game, ended up buying it, and now realizing....it really is a mediocre game that involves running around a bland map for hours on end, running errands while everybody else in your hub stands around, and complains, like "we need to start helping out around here." or "Hey, good job out there while I sit here and throw temper tantrums."
      I've dumped 12 hours into this game, finished... I dunno, 7 missions, 3 side missions, all safe houses unlocked, loot farming runs, and I truly believe that this game isn't going to get too much better at this point.

    That first night always terrifies me. It's utterly terrifying... Because up to that point, they lock it in the day, they let you get used to it. Then you go to that area to get the antizin, and as you're watching the cutscene, it grows dark, you get a good look at your first volatile...and then one gets a good look at you, and you find yourself suddenly tossed into a heart thumping run for your life, trying to avoid the volatiles until you can give them the slip, and then you have to sneak back to the tower before they'll cycle back to daytime. Getting back to the tower without dying is nerve racking, you skulk around, try not to use your flashlight, and avoid going anywhere near the volatiles that pop up in your survivor sense.

    My favorite thing by far for Dying Light was really just the immense attention to detail. You could enter at least a 1/4 of all the buildings you saw and there was actually stuff you could loot and scavenge for in them. I wasn't big on the whole crafting thing myself, but the fact that I can run out into any group of buildings and probably enter it was just a huge plus for me. That and all the hidden environments like the closed shopfronts that you could open to loot it really just combined for a truly immersive game world that I still appreciate to this day.

All whilst I didn’t have a clue which direction I needed to go in. One gaming moment I’ll never forget.

    One thing that DL2 should've not do is to add a healthbar. In DL, the hud elements aren't bothering you a lot, keeping you very immersed in the game. Having floating healthbars not only cuts that immersion easily, but it also cuts a big scary stuff: not knowing just how tough an opponent was. You had either to trust your guts or to learn the hard way how strong the zombies (or humans) were, and adding direct info on them like that is... erf, in my opinion.

    The camera sway and fov change when you are higher up is what makes it feel so real. The uneasy feeling you get from looking down on top of a tall building is purely caused by the genius cinematic effects they added when you're in a high area. The only other time I've ever felt like I could actually fall and die while playing a game is when I was playing super hot for vr. They really killed it with the level of detail they went with this to make it so immersive.
    Edit: Btw dying light has been my favorite game since I first played it and it still is. I have never had more fun playing a game. Playing dying light with my homies for the first time was such a great experience, and it really makes me hopeful for future video games in general. The fact a fairly unknown company at the time released a masterpiece like this gives me hope that indi isn't dead and that we will still have games made by people who are actually passionate about games in the future.

    I'm playing through the first Dying Light right now after it was given away for free on Epic Games Store. I wasn't really expecting much and installed it on a whim, but I sure am glad I did. It ticks all the right boxes that make for a fun video game. The story is pretty campy but it actually works as it leans into it well and lets the gameplay be the main driver. It hearkens back to some of those second wave zombie movies like the Dawn of the Dead remake and 28 Days Later: the intensity of the horror of being in a zombie apocalypse. The exact details of the story may not be that memorable, but I bet you'll never forget that opening scene of Dawn of the Dead.
