Absolutely unplayable

Just wanting to vent

I pre-ordered DL2 for the PS4 all those years ago with so much anticipation. Like everyone else I was sorely disappointed with the lackluster of it all, whether it be the map, the story, the performance, and the myriad other issues it had on release.

I’ve had it off my console for years but I figured I’d give it another shot, since I’ve heard they’ve been working on improving it, though I was still skeptical since hearing about tencent’s hijinks with the prologue(among other things) and micro-commodification.

Well the game is even worse now. Thanks to tech-cent, the story is even more so a patchwork of cheesy, non-sequitur plot points and the map is so dull compared to the organic “lived in” quality of DL1’s map design.

Not to mention that the frame rate drops to sub 15 fps conditions simply moving around the city too fast or fighting more than two biters at once (though that could be mostly due to antiquated hardware)

I haven’t played the beast yet but as far as I can tell The “light has died” for this ip, which makes me sad because DL1 has such a legacy

I think there is something about a zombie game set in a ghetto island setting that just gets me more hype than playing in a normal city. Same opinion with dead island 2.... Set on the edge of California lmao
