The one thing they undeniably improved in DL2 was the gameplay, the parkour is exquisite in that game (though some may argue the paraglider kinda deletes a lot of it), but the atmosphere was severely lacking compared to the E3 trailers. Harran felt like a world gone to shit and nowhere was ever truly safe, even in the main survivor building you lose an entire level to a random infection spread whereas in DL2 the only reasonable threat to survivor settlements is other survivors. I guess I wouldn't care too much about DL2 lacking in the atmospheric department if they hadn't done the dumbass timeskip and really short sighted any future development the series may have. With Harran the rest of the world was ok and anything could've happened, with Villedor the only possible stories left are ones that will follow a similar path to it. When you narrow the focus of your scope that much you have to make sure what you deliver is quality, otherwise anything after that will pretty much be the same.
here's hoping in DL3 we get a prequel-sequel. Basically events after Dying Light 1 and Before Dying Light 2. Like, what happened to Crane after the events of the following and how the virus spread real time out of haran to the whole world
When people still think that "aIdEn CaLdWeLl" is superior to Kyle Crane (The Giga-Chad). Crane was just goated, and this along with many other clips prove that.
Maybe as a volitile Actually he isn't too in control so Kramer has some room there But he even himself has that in the ending of the following by the end of the boss fight
@@Jester4460 Aiden one taps volatiles and demolishers in his turned form lmao. Human form he’s still super human. He has ultra focus that slows down time, ultra reflex’s. Super strength and speed. Sorry. I love crane, but im not blinded by nostalgia. There’s no scenario where crane comes out on top unless he uses guns. Which would be boring. But if they were in the same time period, they’d both have access to guns
That starting sequence just turned my fight or flight with how much challenges I used to play before. Whenever the parkour is that intense it feels like a fever dream and I solely rely on muscle memory to finish it
maxed out skill trees and the legend skill tree are all from kyle's legend. i see it as you aren't crane, you are being told the story of crane and living through his perspective. the reason why he can run infinitely is because thats the legend about him. the real crane would be level 20 on everything at most
You expect pilgrim in post apocalyptic world where you can die anytime to be trained to survive. The fact Aiden cant even climb some basic stuff for a PILGRIM who travels around the world when renegades, basic thugs CAN really tells you Aiden is a sore loser.
The first was lightning in a bottle. They made that mistake with the sequel that is pretty common in the zombie genre - setting it years after when everybody is used to it all, and not really scared. It happened with The Walking Dead too, over the years it just became a boring soap opera. But cheeky speeding this up by 25% though lol
I wish they utilized the lore they set up. If they made it in villidor but during the fall, that’s be honestly cool. I feel like you could accomplish the same feeling by having the game basically the same and the radio tower being the only way to contact any other civilization. And learning that villidor is all that’s left of civilization and that outside the walls. There’s nothing but infected and small groups of nomads now
I wish DL3 would be at the same time as DL1 happened. Where they're trying to stop the virus from getting into their country and failing miserably. GRE and the government who's the ones protecting them abandoned 'em. left behind to die. The protagonist as a soldier from either GRE or the government didn't like the idea of leaving them behind and choose to save the people, alone. He guided them day by day to reach the safe border. The country is unfortunately bombarded(In DL1 Harran almost faced the same fate. so before those jetts arrived in Harran they bombarded this country first)but the protagonist still clutched and saved the people. they watched as their country get "BOOM!" There will be no map at the end of the game lmao. Just a lil idea.
@@ExtremeMan10 I HOPED FOR THIS THO. Let it take place elsewhere with different survivors or protagonist like like L4D2 after L4D. I hate the time skip plot always.
This game aged so well, as soon as I can beat DL two, because I’ve been taking my sweet time- I’m definitely coming back to this game, literally looks almost same if not darker, don’t get me wrong I love the second one the first one just left you with a sense of being completely alone,The new one there’s people out and about and feels like you’re a part of like a group And that’s awesome actually because you get to interact but in a sense that first game left you with that sense that at night you’re all by yourself, and I love the airdrops they need to bring that back in someway maybe in a DLC and dying light two, that n a vehicle🙏🤞🍀

As much as I like Dying light 2 there's just a feeling that it couldn't capture the same way as dying light 1, although I do think it has the potential to be better then DL1 it's still too early, already Techland has shown they're dedicated to making dying light 2 amazing so there's still hope for it to reach it's full potential I hated how safe the night time felt, but with new game plus and them adding more to night it genuinely feels like I'm in danger when I'm playing at night, obviously volatiles are a big part of it, but chargers, banshees, elemental goons and all that add to the game As for parkor I do agree it feels like it doesn't have much weight to it (mainly with how high you can jump) but I feel like that can be fixed pretty easily and even if it's not I don't mind it that much Combat mechanics are much better, But at the same time ISS worse. Then dying light 1. The combat feels too smooth at least in in the way you just swing your weapon and they don't react at all, OR they go flying for no reason (mainly with one handed weapons but also some of the 2 handed, the knuckle weapons feel nice imo and it actually feels like your hitting something) where like in dying light 1 sometimes your weapon would hit the side of the zombie and and almost like rebound and n you'd have to hit it again more like hitting a tree with an axe, although it was a small detail it really gave more of a feeling that you're actually hitting something I'm a big atmosphere and immersion guy and I don't believe DL2 will ever be as immersive or capture the same atmosphere as the first game (at least in the main game, the DLC are an entirely different thing) Last thing that makes me upset in DL2 is you can't cut people in half from the head down, you can still cut off heads, arms, legs, and cut then in half from their top and bottom but my favorite was hitting the perfect hit where you would cut them in half from their head down
I remember reading articles about dying light 1 and they were saying how Kyle's character was lame and boring. I remember thinking to myself, was he???? I always thought his character was realistic which made the game realistic along with the atmosphere and so on. Feeling like you was really out there trying to survive is what made dying light. Now I find out from reading these comments that dying light 2 has lost the feeling of the original ☹
I felt he was really well made and followed a path of a government agent who was initially sent in to pretty much fuck everyone over more, realizing his orders were bad and betraying them to help people survive Instead. The GRE never cared about the people and you learn that through Crane. Aiden never really has much relation to the GRE given how long it’s been since tbe fall. I honestly with dying light 2 took place during said fall. Panic would be increased and because it was so close to when the initial infection happened you wouldn’t just get told what works, you’d have to figure it out
I bought this game to coop with my friend, never regretted it, best gaming experience i ever had. Coop in a post apo world with a virus we barely know something about. I remember those times where we were jumpscaring each other in night time or when we were being chased both of us and it was like in the movies "follow me! I know a place !" Or when he made noise and blocked me outside to prank me... Good old days, don't know how much i would give to re live them again. Those Times where we were affrayed by the great bridge lol. Funny days.
i love both games a lot but dying light 1 had that very scary atmosphere because the virus was new and you didnt really know what it was capable of in the start and the zombies could easily jumpscare you if you didnt expect it
@@brah9249 crane got really lucky the whole game, there were no sharp rusty knives or broken glass bottles in the trash bags (he actually mentions it too, somewhere near the end of the story)
I swear. I'm on my third playthrough now that the PC version of the Director's Cut is out. Just treating it as a chill game for a couple hours at a time.
Dying light 1 was darker and scarier then dying light 2. If they just made volatiles actually hunt you down and spawn all around at night like they did with the first then it would’ve been just as good.
Second game needs an area like the bridge or courtyards in the second map of dl1, where there's literally hundreds of zombies in one area, have the street actually get flooded at night by zombies, the glider took a lot of the stress away from chases cuz you can just fly away
Does the bow out effect the speed? Did you take any boosters? I'm glad I was around to experience the peak of this game. Definitely defined the generation for my and is in my top 10 of all time. If they ever decide to remaster this game I'm for it in the next 10-15 years because since 2015 it hasn't aged a day. There's just an emotion of excitement and fear of the unknown you get on the first playthrough early to mid game I've felt in very few survival horror games. The fear of the unknown and the anticipation it brings. My first night was like a caveman walking out of a cave for the first time until I realised the day-night-cycle hadn't fully activated on the mission.
He is doing the parkour challenge that gives you boost in speed everytime you perform and parkour action (climb, vault, roll etc.) and make you faster, up to 2x faster.
Yeah ngl. That is the only thing that really always bothered me. It slows down the gameplay so fucking much. You start to find ways to avoid those climbing animations lmao
lowkey DL2 feels like a quest and loot simulator... I miss DL1 mechanics because of it's simplicity, but we can all agree it wasn't perfect. The grapple hook pretty much canceled out a lot of parkour like the paraglider does in DL2. All I'm really wanting from DL2 is a pvp. That's honestly one of the main reasons I've been playing DL1 since they added it. I don't see anything wrong with what they're doing with DL2, there's still so much more to come
dl2 is just soo advanced and amazing but dl1 is unbeatable for me tbh, you can't change my mind about this being the best game, a lot of times actually people like more basic games than the advanced ones
i loved this challenge i did it just the other day when i was trying to finish them all but idk why you dropped to the street at that part shit wasted more time
You're thinking of Brecken, according to crane himself the closest he ever came to doing parkour before the events of dying light was running track in highschool
@@collinp.9891 I stand corrected. However, Crane was taught by an actual parkour instructor, and had a track/military background. Aiden had no such prior training and was only taught by Hakon. It's definitely a given that Crane should be better.
@@collinp.9891 I think Crane said that to Rahim to not make him suspicious of anything , because he wanted to infiltrate and gather information for the GRE. Crane had pretty good parkour level , either that or he was indeed a f#$@ing prodigy.
I had to look this up, as I don't believe I ever got the Kuai Dagger. From the DL wiki: "A knife with special effect, boosting your parkour speed. Similar to the effect you receive while playing Parkour Fever challenges." Looks like you get a similar effect whenever doing Parkour Fever, dagger equipped or no.
As the dude said, whenever you're doing these parkour challenges you get the parkour speed effect, the Kuai dagger just lets that happen in normal open world gameplay
i survived a chase without using the grappling hook, i did not use a boost as well, night chase. at nightmare difficulty. no flares and anything. only fists and flashlight. *my heart was pounding fast at that day*

Crane : *literal parkour Jesus, not afraid of the night*
Aiden: *needs a full crate of drugs to learn how to fucking slide while running,slight shadows make him hug UV lamps and pray for the best*
Crane built different.
The movement in the first game is way smoother than the second game
True lol, the camera tilts to the sides and weaves when you climb or run.
Meanwhile in DL2 you jump and camera is fixed to the place.
The second game sucks. Part one is a masterpiece tho

The one thing they undeniably improved in DL2 was the gameplay, the parkour is exquisite in that game (though some may argue the paraglider kinda deletes a lot of it), but the atmosphere was severely lacking compared to the E3 trailers. Harran felt like a world gone to shit and nowhere was ever truly safe, even in the main survivor building you lose an entire level to a random infection spread whereas in DL2 the only reasonable threat to survivor settlements is other survivors. I guess I wouldn't care too much about DL2 lacking in the atmospheric department if they hadn't done the dumbass timeskip and really short sighted any future development the series may have. With Harran the rest of the world was ok and anything could've happened, with Villedor the only possible stories left are ones that will follow a similar path to it. When you narrow the focus of your scope that much you have to make sure what you deliver is quality, otherwise anything after that will pretty much be the same.

maxed out skill trees and the legend skill tree are all from kyle's legend. i see it as you aren't crane, you are being told the story of crane and living through his perspective. the reason why he can run infinitely is because thats the legend about him. the real crane would be level 20 on everything at most

The first was lightning in a bottle. They made that mistake with the sequel that is pretty common in the zombie genre - setting it years after when everybody is used to it all, and not really scared. It happened with The Walking Dead too, over the years it just became a boring soap opera.
But cheeky speeding this up by 25% though lol
True, they could make sequel in same time or different city and it would work far better
I wish they utilized the lore they set up. If they made it in villidor but during the fall, that’s be honestly cool. I feel like you could accomplish the same feeling by having the game basically the same and the radio tower being the only way to contact any other civilization. And learning that villidor is all that’s left of civilization and that outside the walls. There’s nothing but infected and small groups of nomads now
I wish DL3 would be at the same time as DL1 happened. Where they're trying to stop the virus from getting into their country and failing miserably. GRE and the government who's the ones protecting them abandoned 'em. left behind to die.
The protagonist as a soldier from either GRE or the government didn't like the idea of leaving them behind and choose to save the people, alone. He guided them day by day to reach the safe border.
The country is unfortunately bombarded(In DL1 Harran almost faced the same fate. so before those jetts arrived in Harran they bombarded this country first)but the protagonist still clutched and saved the people. they watched as their country get "BOOM!"
There will be no map at the end of the game lmao.
Just a lil idea.
@@ExtremeMan10 I HOPED FOR THIS THO. Let it take place elsewhere with different survivors or protagonist like like L4D2 after L4D. I hate the time skip plot always.

This game aged so well, as soon as I can beat DL two, because I’ve been taking my sweet time- I’m definitely coming back to this game, literally looks almost same if not darker, don’t get me wrong I love the second one the first one just left you with a sense of being completely alone,The new one there’s people out and about and feels like you’re a part of like a group And that’s awesome actually because you get to interact but in a sense that first game left you with that sense that at night you’re all by yourself, and I love the airdrops they need to bring that back in someway maybe in a DLC and dying light two, that n a vehicle🙏🤞🍀

As much as I like Dying light 2 there's just a feeling that it couldn't capture the same way as dying light 1, although I do think it has the potential to be better then DL1 it's still too early, already Techland has shown they're dedicated to making dying light 2 amazing so there's still hope for it to reach it's full potential
I hated how safe the night time felt, but with new game plus and them adding more to night it genuinely feels like I'm in danger when I'm playing at night, obviously volatiles are a big part of it, but chargers, banshees, elemental goons and all that add to the game
As for parkor I do agree it feels like it doesn't have much weight to it (mainly with how high you can jump) but I feel like that can be fixed pretty easily and even if it's not I don't mind it that much
Combat mechanics are much better, But at the same time ISS worse. Then dying light 1. The combat feels too smooth at least in in the way you just swing your weapon and they don't react at all, OR they go flying for no reason (mainly with one handed weapons but also some of the 2 handed, the knuckle weapons feel nice imo and it actually feels like your hitting something) where like in dying light 1 sometimes your weapon would hit the side of the zombie and and almost like rebound and n you'd have to hit it again more like hitting a tree with an axe, although it was a small detail it really gave more of a feeling that you're actually hitting something
I'm a big atmosphere and immersion guy and I don't believe DL2 will ever be as immersive or capture the same atmosphere as the first game (at least in the main game, the DLC are an entirely different thing)
Last thing that makes me upset in DL2 is you can't cut people in half from the head down, you can still cut off heads, arms, legs, and cut then in half from their top and bottom but my favorite was hitting the perfect hit where you would cut them in half from their head down
I remember reading articles about dying light 1 and they were saying how Kyle's character was lame and boring. I remember thinking to myself, was he???? I always thought his character was realistic which made the game realistic along with the atmosphere and so on. Feeling like you was really out there trying to survive is what made dying light. Now I find out from reading these comments that dying light 2 has lost the feeling of the original ☹
just a lil bit still a good game. crane will always be better than aiden though
People always call protagonist boring, i think kyle crane is a very well developed character, sucks that he gets hate
They might prefer dumb Artyom instead, the silent hero
@@YashRaj-xv2yo I like Artyom
I felt he was really well made and followed a path of a government agent who was initially sent in to pretty much fuck everyone over more, realizing his orders were bad and betraying them to help people survive Instead. The GRE never cared about the people and you learn that through Crane. Aiden never really has much relation to the GRE given how long it’s been since tbe fall. I honestly with dying light 2 took place during said fall. Panic would be increased and because it was so close to when the initial infection happened you wouldn’t just get told what works, you’d have to figure it out
Truly incredible with his infinite parkour stamina
Despite the royal fuck up,came through with half a moment worth of time to spare. Great job holy shit
This implies that a full moment is 22 milliseconds and that seems correct tbh
I bought this game to coop with my friend, never regretted it, best gaming experience i ever had. Coop in a post apo world with a virus we barely know something about.
I remember those times where we were jumpscaring each other in night time or when we were being chased both of us and it was like in the movies "follow me! I know a place !"
Or when he made noise and blocked me outside to prank me...
Good old days, don't know how much i would give to re live them again.
Those Times where we were affrayed by the great bridge lol.
Funny days.
Hell yeah his speed is insane. You can almost hear him go "ooh ooh ooh ooh" as he vaults and climbs stuff.

Chad Kyle versus Virgin Aiden
Didn't Aiden sleep with Thalia?
Crane just boosting himself like 7 feet in air while already hanging is different
I wish this game had the option to "hide the weapon" or save it, that's the only thing I can criticize
Dying Light 1 has no holstering mechanism, so I empty one of my weapon slots so that I can run without the obstruction of a weapon. Try it
I hope dl2 slowly progresses into a worthy sequel to this masterpiece
i love both games a lot but dying light 1 had that very scary atmosphere because the virus was new and you didnt really know what it was capable of in the start and the zombies could easily jumpscare you if you didnt expect it
That viral chasing you reminds me why DL1 was so satisfying. Actually felt on edge
this is how 7 years of playing dying light went after finishing the entire game + racing so many times.
That was close enough to made me jump in joy. Nice run man.
I miss Kyle crane man, I thought Aiden was Kyle, he sounds so similar
Kyle is dead man. Play the following dlc it finishes the story. It has 2 endings which u can decide
I didn't know that was a real part of the campaign
People seem to forget Kyle is a whole ass trained merc, ofcourse he is built different
its funny how we pass from a guy in his 30's who is built different, to a guy in his 20's who is literally built different
I always found dl1 hella scary in dark closed spaces where even one weak zombie could scare the shit out of me from pure terror
DL's parkour felt way more responsive and grabby and sharp. honestly 2 made me miss my first playthrough of 1
My boi Crane doesnt even get TIRED by climbing ledges like goddamn he is clearly the superior version

Imagine this absolute beast with inhibitors
I love how he said Was and not Is in the title, cause in the lore crane is kind of a volatile rn
He ain’t built different he just BUILT
Second game needs an area like the bridge or courtyards in the second map of dl1, where there's literally hundreds of zombies in one area, have the street actually get flooded at night by zombies, the glider took a lot of the stress away from chases cuz you can just fly away
Does the bow out effect the speed? Did you take any boosters?
I'm glad I was around to experience the peak of this game. Definitely defined the generation for my and is in my top 10 of all time. If they ever decide to remaster this game I'm for it in the next 10-15 years because since 2015 it hasn't aged a day.
There's just an emotion of excitement and fear of the unknown you get on the first playthrough early to mid game I've felt in very few survival horror games. The fear of the unknown and the anticipation it brings. My first night was like a caveman walking out of a cave for the first time until I realised the day-night-cycle hadn't fully activated on the mission.
He is doing the parkour challenge that gives you boost in speed everytime you perform and parkour action (climb, vault, roll etc.) and make you faster, up to 2x faster.

Pro tip for dl1: if you're being chased by a volatile, Don't *EVER TRY TO LOOK BACK*
lowkey DL2 feels like a quest and loot simulator... I miss DL1 mechanics because of it's simplicity, but we can all agree it wasn't perfect. The grapple hook pretty much canceled out a lot of parkour like the paraglider does in DL2. All I'm really wanting from DL2 is a pvp. That's honestly one of the main reasons I've been playing DL1 since they added it. I don't see anything wrong with what they're doing with DL2, there's still so much more to come
One could argue that you were already tired of parkour by the time you got the grappling hook.
Who needs a paraglider when you have the ability to multiple your speed every time you climb a building
dl2 is just soo advanced and amazing but
dl1 is unbeatable for me tbh, you can't change my mind about this being the best game, a lot of times actually people like more basic games than the advanced ones

Why's it acting like you have the Kuai dagger equipped?
I had to look this up, as I don't believe I ever got the Kuai Dagger. From the DL wiki:
"A knife with special effect, boosting your parkour speed. Similar to the effect you receive while playing Parkour Fever challenges."
Looks like you get a similar effect whenever doing Parkour Fever, dagger equipped or no.
As the dude said, whenever you're doing these parkour challenges you get the parkour speed effect, the Kuai dagger just lets that happen in normal open world gameplay
