    I will never forget seeing the reverse time trailer for Dead Island and then what we actually got.

    Yeah, I'm glad it didn't turn out to be a dour and sad game, but instead lots of fun.

    I'd take decapitating hordes of zombies with an electrified katana over child death any day.

    I recall Dead Island being pretty bad, or at least opening with you at a pretty underwhelming power level. I felt like Dead Rising did "actually, it's pretty fun to mow down hordes of zombies" thing a lot better.

    how is dead island 2 coming along anyway
    Announced in 2014, the game has undergone a difficult development period due to multiple changes with the studios working on it. Yager Development was originally hired to develop Dead Island 2 in 2012, but was removed from the project in 2015 and replaced by Sumo Digital the following year. Sumo Digital would also be removed, with Dambuster, an internal studio of Deep Silver, becoming the developers in 2019.[2]

    There's like 5 different genres of zombie games so this feels like comparing Starcraft and Alpha Centauri as strategy games

    the thing is, l4d2 is better than whatever zombie game you could name, regardless of genre

    It was Dead Island with the boobs caked in blood and gore as a collector's edition item, right?

    For the record I crushed every inch of Dead Island 1 with the gun lady and loved it, but the tonal whiplash was wild.

    I think I tried to import my character to Dead Island 2, but didn't get as absorbed into it.

    On the other hand, Dead Island gave way to Dying Light, which I really enjoyed. Haven't managed to fit 2 in there

    It's way more dead spacey than I expected; very much a "serial numbers filed off" kind of feeling.
