It was a solid 7 out of 10 turned 8 out of 10 with dlc. It came out at a bad time and didn't sell well because of it. I didn't like Dead Island but adding parcour really changed the experience. The voice acting is solid and the combat feels like whatever weapon you are holding.

The only downside to thegame is how clunky it can be at times and how touchy the parcour can be. Fighting humans is also flawed af but let's be glad there isn't too much of that. The guns can also feel out of place but the situations they are useful in make them welcome.

All in all it was a good game. Bought it on sale so I was expecting nothing and got a surprise.

I know what you mean about fighting the humans. Fighting any of the enemies that aren't the slow biters or thugs can be a complete mixed bag. I'm in Old Town and the fast fuckers (virals?) are noticeably more intense and meeting more than one is grounds for me getting fucked in the ass. Once you get guns killing the humans is piss easy.

I've been playing for 16 hours, and just finished a few quests in old town. Kind of just want to finish the game now. What's the DLC like?

The following makes you completely do a 180 on gameplay instead of fighting close combat from building to building its running away and picking off targets from far away

also the buggy is fun to drive around

One of the best games in years. It's held back by some things (skill tree and arbitrary rpg numbers and such)
The combat is decent for fighting zombies and the video gamey enemies.
The parkour flourishes in the open world and the open world's benefits from it.
The main story isn't the best, but the side quests are interesting little adventures within the city.

This is for the base game alone though since I haven't played The Following expansion.

5/10, totally average.

How many hours in does the game get fun?

The moment you leave the tower for the first time.

Blurry.

It got fun the moment I found out you can turn broken weapons into metal parts. I was scrambing for weapons for the longest time until I found out you can do that.

dead island but with parkour

>and didn't sell well
It sold 6 million half a year after launch.
I'm guessing it's close to 8 now that it's been re-released with the DLC as a GOTY edition.
