I tried playing DL2, but I just couldn’t get into it. It didn’t feel like DL and ended up being grindy and boring, so I dropped it pretty quickly.

This new one, though—I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. The pacing feels right, the atmosphere actually captures the spirit of the series, and the gameplay loop is much more engaging. Exploration and combat both feel rewarding instead of like a chore, and there’s a good balance between challenge and fun.

It’s definitely a step in the right direction, and I can see myself sinking a lot of hours into it without getting bored.
Highly recommend it!

As a Dying Light 1 veteran and also someone who was pretty disappointed in Dying Light 2, I thoroughly enjoyed my playthrough of The Beast. It's lacking a new game + mode at the moment so I'm just stuck in limbo until then because there aren't really any end game incentives. No Legend System yet either.

Yeah, it's GOTY material imo. If you do all of the side quests, along with the main story, you'll for sure get your $60 worth.

Can't say it's worth the price (got it for free) but if I had to price it then it is worth 40-45 so maybe pick it up on sale. It is fun and combat is nice with the bosses feeling better than the ones in DL 1 and 2. The ending is....something but I wont spoil that. Some people have issue with the parkour but I havent had any myself nor experienced any bugs. It's a solid 8/10

it takes me back to playing the first one for the first time, highly recommend. very engaging, fun, and thrilling. kyle is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beast.

100% get it if you enjoyed dying light 1
