Anyone that was asking for a sequel got it in Dying Light and that game turned out to be vastly superior. This seems pointless to me.

Yeah, then the game turned out to be really mediocre. Riptide was just fucking awful.

Not as good as the first one.

You're probably thinking of Riptide. Dead Island 2 haven't been released yet. It got announced 4+ years ago and it's been bouncing around different developers ever since.

Yes, Riptide was the game I finished.

Riptide isn't the second Dead Island game? It picks right up where the first game left off.

I know that Rockstar, Capcom, Bethesda (and apparently Microsoft) have difficulty counting, but good lord. Three isn't that difficult a number to count.

The best course of action would be to wipe Dead Island 2 from your thoughts. And, if you haven't done so already, play dying Light, and it's DLC!

Well, as I said, I already played the second game, regardless of what they called it. I actually enjoyed both games, though the first one was the best of the two.

I doubt I would waste my time on a third game that was labeled "2", however. That shit turns me off fast.

Never played Dying Light. Looks like I missed it. Might be worth a look!

Dying Light is the only zombie game that's too scary for me to play. I read that the game is hard in the beginning but gets easier as you level up. Problem is, I can never get past the beginning missions. It's the infected and their human-like AI that terrorize me throughout the whole map, always finding me and always kicking my ass, causing me to die and lose XP. Then there's the dreadful night.

It's the greatest zombie game ever made.

I really didn't like Dying Light for some reason. I guess I was just done with zombie stuff.

The original developer for Dead Island 2 was Yager Development. They left after disagreements about the direction of the game.

Sumo Digital took over, but they've also been doing other stuff too (Crackdown 3, Forza Horizon 3, Team Sonic Racing).

It's sort of funny as the first Dead Island also had a lot of development issues too.

This is what I've been saying. If this game ever actually comes out, cool, I'll never get tired of more zombie games. But I loved Dead Island and already got a proper spiritual successor so whatever else comes out doesn't matter.

Yeah

It also had a mode where your friends could join your game as powered up zombies to try and stop you.

Dying Light was pretty good, but the weapons tanked during the latter parts of the game when the game turned into a goddamn FPS with guns everywhere what were they THINKING

That, and the durability mechanic alongside limited repairs + limited materials predictably ended up with "I just won't use these materials until I really need them, then" and then never using them.
I ended up actually ignoring looting materials because of the above things.

I never had any problem with guns being too prevalent. When you're up against human enemies just close the gap and lop their heads off. My game never devolved into an FPS.

If it's not being developed by Techland then I don't give a shit. The series might as well just be buried at this point.

Only thing I liked better much about dead island was the 4 different characters. Not too much a difference between them I suppose but having each one be a specialist in certain weapons gave it a lot more replay value. Dying light I beat once and was meh on starting a new play through. Dead Island I beat a few times. Co op in both was the way to go as well damn good games.
