oh man, i remember playing this demo like 40 times back in 2015 before my parents let me buy the whole game. this video gives me sparks of nostalgia. almost 10 years ago, damn
I had an exact route planned after a good 30 times of playing the demo, and would run that route way too many times to try and see how much I could get done in the demo time they gave, shit was awesome
MEEE TOOOO 😭😭 (I'm absolutely in love with this game series ❤❤ for those who like zombies, parkour, action, and/or more I recommend you play this game series!)❤❤❤
Same. But that's because I just wasn't aware of the game at the time. I only heard of this game around the time it came out in January 2015 and played the full game shortly after the release date.
I remember I’ve read that the demo was only temporarily on the ps store, I had only a ps3 back then and I tracked the game development, and for those who don’t know, this was dropping also on PS3 and X360 until the end of development they decided to simply throw away the ps3 and x360 version. And I got the demo on my account since I had a cousin with a ps4 abroad country, once I got my hands on a ps4 which was practically 2019 I could play the demo, as well the game full edition
nah it was on there foreverr maybe not now but a longgg time i have it in my library i used to gameshare with friends and at one point when it was bugging out he forced us to all play the demo so we could play cause we couldn’t all get on the full game at once 😭.
Back in the day I used to mod the Demo and if I Remember right, by unlocking all outfits you can see earlier designs of certain outfits, and some that (I think) are not in the final game
This is the game that got me to upgrade to PS4 from PS3. I remember when it was first announced for PS3 but then techland chose rightly not to release it on ps3, unlike cod bo3 on ps3. I've just restarted the story again for the 2nd time in 9 years and these first 20 odd hours seem more of a grind now.
Man I remember playing this demo everyday just slaying zombies and parkouring I wanted to get the grapple hook but it was impossible a couple of days ago I remember how much fun I actually had while playing it and I started crying about it, just remembering how easier it was being a kid and how fun it was is crumbling. I am glad I had the opportunity to play the demo because it really paved a way for my love of the whole series.
Ahh yea i remember playing this game with my friend we would troll eachother by turning friendly fire on and start shooting at eachother for no reason. It was fun very fun but he sadly passed away
I remember playing this when I was a kid back in 2015 I used to hide in the safe zone and play with randoms and my friends.. the good old days and you’d only get an hour to play so I’d keep restarting the game.
This is a tad off-topic, but I’d be super interested to see the cancelled PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Dying Light. If I remember correctly, those versions were cancelled a month before the game launched. I’m not sure if any details or footage of those versions were shown either but I could be wrong; I didn’t follow the game before it released
I think TheRadBrad has a video of him playing the ps3 or 360 version on his channel, I think it looks different to the one we have now and maybe more laggy than usual but it's been a while since I've seen it haha
@@jamesmcmoore5434 I can't find it on TRB channel but i did found footage from ps3 on SinisterXSnipex channel (if it's even legit), i wonder why they didn't release it on ps3 but they did release 2 on ps4 in literally unplayable state
So much nostalgia, I remember playing it on my laptop that could hardly run it, I must have played the demo like 30 times, I was around 10 or 11 years old, the game scared me so bad back then but I couldn't stop playing it lol, miss those days a lot, everything in life was much better
i got dying light enchanced for free on epic games, it was my childhood dream to play this, i struggled but i made it through the campaign, this game is insanely fun, i still play it to this day
This is a crazy nostalgic video for me so much so that I just typed out something😂 I guess I just wanted to share my experience with the demo. I had a PS3 and played games like OG Dead Island and The Last Of Us so when Dying Light came out, It essentially looked like every single aspect that could’ve been improved from Dead Island and kinda the whole zombie genre was done better and in a unique way. The movement was always my biggest issue with OG Dead Island and how you constantly had to wait for stamina to run. Dying Light was an entire Parkour game + there was 2 separate stamina bars for Parkour and Combat. The TLOU player in me can appreciate the attention to the realism, not only with the graphics (which were phenomenal and still are) but the fact that you are Running instead of fighting most times is awesome. Like I cannot praise Dying Light Enough, it is one of the most straight up fun games ever made. I remember wanting the game for ever but there was no PS3 version so I thought I was gonna have to wait until I had a PS4 to play it. To my delight, my old shitty laptop could “run” the FREE Dying Light demo on like 20 fps. Needless to say, I played that demo into the ground regardless of how choppy the game was, I couldn’t have cared. It was so fun to just run around and explore. My Brother and I eventually got a PS4 for Christmas with Red Dead Redemption 2 which is another absolutely GOATed game on PS4, but I instantly hopped on Amazon or eBay to finally order Dying Light. And boom, that was like 8-9 years ago, and I’m still playing this game every once in a while. Thank you to the person who made this video to help me reminisce about playing this hidden gem. It was weirdly emotional😂 I just woke up😂 Thank YOU if you read all this. I don’t really expect anyone to but who cares, no TH-cam comment can avoid all out war if enough people with different opinions and attitudes come across it. Adios Amigos
I still have access to the demo on my ps4 and can still play it thankfully. I ended up pouring 72 hours into it from Sept 2015 to Feb 2017 when my dad got me the full game where i still play it to this day :)
Little off topic, but I would love to see 2014 dying light demo (When we played as Antoine instead as Crane). Especially the now cut content hidding in game files. Too bad it's lost media now.
Imagine the coincidence, I bought the computer and few days after that after I discovered that I need to download steam and epic games if I want to download games I was scrolling and I found the dying light enchanted edition for free
I remember glitching the game so badly when I first played it and could insta kill everything by kicking. Literally used no other weapon than my legs and it was fucking hilarious.
The guy needing his spare glasses, in full game, he has a blue tank top for a shirt and looks more Hispanic. Edit: Also, at the start of a new game, you can go into his room and you can see him wearing his glasses before they get broken
2015 i probably had around 30 hours on this demo lol. made a new account for the 2 day playstation plus so i could play online and bam 12 year old me was happy.
Unfortunately no, the only way to play the demo now is if you already got it back when it was on the marketplace (around 2015 to 2017 If I recall correctly)
unfortunately you cant unless you already owned it before Techland took it off the marketplace. The only reason I could play it in 2024 was because I got the demo on my Xbox back in 2016. hope this was helpful :)
great video man!! and sorry to all the kids 10 years late still thinking they can play the demo...lmao just buy the 20$ game now...idk how yall hopped on this game so LATE..i played this on 360 before any major updates and the game looked very different i thnk around 2014. great video tho dude!!!!

Thaks for showing this im glad i could see the differences
back when game studios trusted their product soo much they released free demos
Nothing but a man on a building with a pipe
I probably played the demo a total of 30 times for the full hour
It's better than 99% of demos out there. Instead of being limited to exact moment or mission you can do what you want for 1 hour.
I still have access to the demo on my ps4 and can still play it thankfully. I ended up pouring 72 hours into it from Sept 2015 to Feb 2017 when my dad got me the full game where i still play it to this day :)

I remember watching PewDiePie play an extremely early demo for this game haha

It looks like a full game
how to get this demo?
You had to download it when it came out and not delete it
The guy needing his spare glasses, in full game, he has a blue tank top for a shirt and looks more Hispanic.
Edit: Also, at the start of a new game, you can go into his room and you can see him wearing his glasses before they get broken
I'm pretty sure I've done the glasses quest a couple of days ago in final game. I don't remember it fully now, but maybe they just remade it a little?
11:51 bruh... he made his pants yellow as soon as he got unalived...
I’d say this is nearly a perfect demo except for the school mission bait
Also entering and leaving safe zone sfx is different it feels like beeping
