Christ, I honestly don’t know what to say about this game. The developers knocked this out of the park no questions asked. I know this game is really expensive, but IT IS TOTALLY WORTH IT. It’s one of the few really good games I can run on my ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Mac, even though I need to set all the settings on low for it to be playable.


Graphics
Dying Light was meant to be played on a high end PC, optimal for loading Harran and all of the zombie entities. The city itself is a sight to behold, (just check the screenshots on the game page,) with the weather, sun, and small details to the buildings and street making it even more incredible. The weapons, cars, and small details to the map are configured to perfection, leaving the player in awe to just watch and explore. The zombies look incredibly real, and can even be scary when they get right into your face and grab you.

Gameplay
Dying light is a mostly single player game, with a little bit of a multiplayer aspect if you choose. I’ll start by talking about the main storyline. It’s interesting, fun, and keeps you entertained throughout the entire thing. I would recommend taking your time with it, as to truly understand the story you need every small bit of detail, sometimes requiring you to explore different areas and talk to different characters. My favorite part of the game is that it’s not just the main campaign. There’s a multitude of side quests that you can run through that add a different aspect to the game, furthermore strengthening your knowledge of the background of the virus and the people who are surviving with it. There are also skill challenges, areas where you try to reach a certain area in a certain time, or kill a certain amount of zombies in a set time. There are also random encounters. These are probably some of the coolest things in the game, such as hostage situations, soldier attacks, helping survivors in the street or defend their homes, and even find mystery shop vendors. Also, you can find survivors who have a story to tell. These stories can be inspiring, heartfelt, and even extremely depressing at some points.

The game is also filled with hidden secrets and Easter Eggs, just waiting to be found. You can cheat like me and search for them on youtube, but finding them yourself is even more rewarding. To me, half the fun of this game is exploring yourself. The sprawling city hides a ton of secrets in the mountains, in houses, and deep in the Ocean. If you beat the campaign quickly, there is so much more you can do to keep yourself entertained.


Multiplayer / Be The Zombie
Honestly, I’m not a huge fan of this mode. I’ve tried it a couple times, on both sides, and it’s scary as absolute ♥♥♥♥. The night hunter is an absolutely terrifying being, and when it jumps you out of nowhere it can scare the life out of you. I personally think this mode is just generally unbalanced, with it being difficult for the survivor to win unless he has help or the hunter is just generally incompetent.

Music
Usually people don’t are about the soundtrack, but it’s realistic. During action chase scenes and pursuits, the music makes you feel a bit more fearful or even give you a rush that makes the game feel more real.
