Dead Island 2 is a 2023 action role-playing game developed by Dambuster Studios and published by Deep Silver. It is a sequel to the 2011 video game Dead Island and the third major installment in the Dead Island series.
Thank you guys for they shout out! The GI community events are incredible. As someone who watch GI content for a decade I find it awesome I can play games with GI and network in the there community and the discord is a enlightening resource for a beginning content creator like me.
♨♨♨
The host introduction style hasn’t changed in years and I appreciate it and being there from the inception of these inside jokes.
Damn 2hrs fly by so fast im already hyped for the next episode. I appreciate yall bois frfr
John Leguizamo played Luie G in the original Mario movie, not Mario
I appreciate the shoutout man. It's only right that I support every step of the way.
JG was talking about "Pound Town" in the beginning 😭 its a banger ngl
Crazy right 😂😂😂
lol yes. I forgot her name while doing the pod, but Sexxy Redd is embarrassing..smh
@@UTxJGTheDon ahh JG you not outta town thuggin with your rounds? 😭
@@Wavydouble lol naw you gotta stawp! 😂😂
I can tell by the thumbnail this is going to be a good one😂
I'm having a great time with Dead Island 2! Looking forward to finishing it!
If only they delayed recording the episode a day sooner. I was hoping to hear their thoughts on the CMA decision. Oh well, it’s gonna be a hell of an episode next week.
Next ep we’ll get convo on CMA and ethos thoughts on the armored core gameplay that just dropped
Also on the dead island take. We must've played separate games but it's no changing yall minds
It bothers me he didn't give it a decent try.
He didn’t like RE4🤷🏾♂️ Dying Light 2 was ass. But the other games have been legit.
Honestly had a great time with co op
That ending part had me dying 😂😂 but seriously why don't people just uninstall the games they are hardly playing?
Depending on your internet speeds, downloading those games again if you want to replay them will take a while.
The future GI Tourney winner is hereeeeeeee early like a birdie
1:28:03 some of what Ethos talked about here reminded me of something. It’s similar to how in the content game you have these business owners who are just like “we spent $20k a month on a content team of editors, social media managers, etc. and that’s how we 10x our viewership and gained millions of followers”. When the people with money start coming in to use exploit AI it’s gonna get dicey 🤔
The best podcast for gaming right here! Thank you guys so much for the great content.
Yeah, let me go ahead stop you there playboy lol. I didn't use the easy mode (Buster Max Mode) to get through the game quicker for Mega Man Battle Network 1 lol... I just beat it by upgrading Mega Man. Honestly the only boss that is annoying is the Life Virus at the end. I'm close to finishing MBN 2 at the moment lol. Ill beat the other 4 games in between major video game releases. I don't play games on assist mode LOL....
Also, Capcom has released two other Mega Man collection games within the Mega Man franchise (Mega Man X Collection & Mega Man Zero/ ZX Advent Collection) within the past 4 years. I'm willing to bet the next series will be The Star Force Series which was great as well for the Nintendo DS. Then like Ethos and others theorized, I can see Capcom coming out with a New Mega Man series.
1:37:14 Glad to know I’m not the only one who dances with my pup 😂
lmaoooo chill
I feel like DI2 is one of those games were if your not in the mood to play a zombie game you are not going to enjoy it. That's said I'm playing though the first one right now on pc,and I'm having fun cant wait to play the sequel.
Love to see another episode of the podcast, got something to listen to on my drives
Gonna like and comment and send to friends but I’m going to watch this tomorrow at work!!!
I need that Samurai Zero drip that Ethos got on!
That Titianfall comment had me upset one of the best
mech/shooter games to ever be played
As a St. Louis native who recently moved … CHILL ON MY CITY 😂
I’m saying 😂
Soooooo Armored Core WAS announced for Aug-25 2023 😂 just after you guys recorded
Please talk about the gran turismo movie in the next pod.
Why do I always have to go on a deep dive to find your guys content 😂 my Alg. Trash
Thank God Ethos came in asking the real questions. I was worried you guys would breeze by the moral ramifications of companies abusing AI technology to spit out microtransaction bait. That shit is easily going to be the most important issue of the century.
Just in time I needed this HIT LIKE PEOPLE !!!
Sad Hokage was growth, so we can laugh at that phase now. Great show fellas
Bet I got something to listen to at work!
Thanks for the pod great Vibes as always.
Fire pod per usual yall
I been watching y’all for so long I remember the old intro “…Gaming illuminaughty, ‘N’ as in naughty or nice.” Then after a while someone called TBH out on it like don’t you mean ‘naughty’ as in naughty or nice
1:27:50 Facts!
When it comes to video games, a. IR is OK in my opinion but I'd say it makes the original price be cut by 75% we Pau the devs to work, but if they not working and it'll cost less to make I'd say let it be 25% of the regular prices.
Fromsoft recycles assets and animations, but they also are productive when a game is in late development they are already starting or halfway in another.
The infamous thumbnaik
After Bungie's segment at GDC. There's gonna be a slew of new live service looters coming.
Bungie basically admitted they make all the money they do, with minimal effort and resources
This is also why Sony bought Bungie, so that Bungie could help them create around 15 new live service games.
Another banger boys!😊
dead island 2 been really fun for me ngl
Robocop was the first Terminator
Ive been waiting for TBH opinion on the new Dead island. I know he hates zombie games so im here for the slander😅
As and you shall receive lol
Time stamp
@@Chicago_Outfit 58:00 also his channel as well
@@CeeJayMnD I miss the old TBH
@@Chicago_Outfit I miss the old Kanye
I think for you guys you see new as being good but the reason Xdefient is getting rave reviews is because it’s literally old call of duty and there’s a large community that just want old cod
John Leguizamo was the original Luigi, not Mario
I think I may like Dead Island 2 because I've never played the first one
Im surprised you guys didn't talk about ff16
They did on the last podcast. U missed it. They like the way combat looks and they will buy it day 1 lol
Yeah I don’t think anyone was excited to play Dead Island 2 for real. Like most people that I know who still play games we’re sitting around talking like “ damn I totally forgot about that game “.
Keep it up boys
Wheres the pod?
Ubisoft is already jumping the gun as Ethos was hintimg at, Unisoft is trying to use AI to write thr stories of their games going forward.
My problem with the a I skins is that it's going to put a lot of people out Of work. There are thousands to tens of thousands of artist that Will not have a job anymore because of this. I'm not sure if it's worth taking away quality for quantity.
when i look at dead island i just think of dead rising but in first person lol
I DO actually have Kenna installed😂😂...im gonna delete it now 😂
I have the game pass but be honest I only have it because I have a p c. I would perceive that if anybody was choosing either making a pc or Getting a playstation or xbox. Anything anything on xbox is technically. On? PC. So nothing on xbox needs to have the xbox to play it. I played hi fi rush yes that might have been the best game that's been out this year. But I played it on steam. I wasn't even willing to play the game free on the game pass that i already pay for then actually payed for a game Because I rather spend the 40 bucks and have it on steam. Then try to mess with anything on xbox. S*** same thing happened with pysconaut 2 . Maybe some of the best new age platformers Made by A company that xbox owns then I played on steam. Now yes you can bring up the debate that I can do similar things with stuff like crash or god of war or the last of us on steam. But you had to wait a lease a year or so play those games on p c. And with all those game plus others like Horizon zero dawn, Bloodborne, Ratchet and clank, spider man. Of course a xbox person is dissatisfied With their purchase. Imagine you could have got a computer that could have done All the stuff you do online Plus play games you still can't play plus the games that you already play.
Dead island 2 sold over 1 million copies. Im surprised
Same Ppl like zombie games
@@loosenuplockz4219 Zombie games need a rest. I'm disappointed it's still in demand. I tapped out back in '07
@@Hillthugsta saying zombie games need a rest is like saying games about space or with guns need a rest. I personally feel first person games and souls like games need a rest
@@kenyoung149 fps I get souls games not so much I’d much rather prefer a game like elden ring where you can tell just by looking at the game how much effort they put into than cod which is copy paste with a new paint for the most part
That quiddich game is looking a little Mobile Gamish
We are not that far from Detroit Become Human if tech keep going the way it is.
The GUYS 💯
The extention ro next year isn't going to help much for Suicide Squad.een if they took out the Live Service aspect the problem is the game mechanics is the turn off already. As JG said, everyone has a gun. No one is unique.
W Podcast
I saw suzume but not mario lol
You guys are bias when it comes to the future of physical consoles. Yes Xbox consoles sales are doing bad but that's because of gamepass. Furthermore, the PS5 and Switch are doing record numbers. People having been saying physical consoles will be replaced since early last gen and this just isn't true. The cloud won't replace it. Xbox consoles are dying, the PS5 is here to stay
Do I need to buy you discord submission to participate?? Wouldn't let me otherwise 😂 if that's the case major L
The discord itself is free to join but certain features are needed with the subscription
@@CeeJayMnD u mean 95 percent of the content
@@Kotasake True, I get why you’re upset but they gotta eat too bro. This content we’re watching is free and still being in the community with discord is dope.
Imma make a assumption… you’re not subbed to the channel. So imma make another assumption and say you’re not subbed on twitch to any of them or their TH-cam channels but you’re watching the free content n maybe the twitch streams. They gotta make some money bro. They’re content creators you know?
@@CeeJayMnD I'm subbed and have been since it pretty much started 💀same with twitch, also not upset, I simply laugh at the lack of transparency.
@@CeeJayMnD you're hilarious tho my guy. I've been rocking since Cornelius 08, I'm older than I look shit probably older than you
Nintendo is part of the tojo clan
Now they need to make a Star Fox game
John Leguizamo was the original Luigi. Bob Hoskins was Mario. Idk why I wanted to correct this, the movie was trash lol.
POUNDTOWN hard quit playin 🤣
John lasagna 😂😂😂
Was Dead island 2 worth the wait? Nah. But is it as bad and boring as y’all make it sound, absolutely not. I can respect what TBH said tho , nobody has time for a 6/10 game. If you have friends to play with then cop it.
Yooooo
Y'all look into the leaks? Some fucked up shit in there
JEDI Mid survivor.
lol
This whole channel is mid
