Dead Island 2 is not an open world game like Dying Light 2.

It will only take you eight hours to finish the main story and and another 10 to mop up the rest.

The graphics are insanely beautiful even on base Ps5 and the gore mechanics are amazing. There are enough different and fun guns/weapons to choose. You can execute any part of the zombies bodies with them and get different animations.

But the combat system and the storyline are very generic.

If you like zombie games, you will like this game. I would give it 8 out of 10 because I really enjoy the gore mechanics.

If your hoping to feel a little like Thor as you play like me this is not it, Marvels Avengers still much better as it make you feel a little like Thor.

Quick story summary:

Jotuns attack Asgard and Sif dies at the end of chapter 1.

Thor wants to go to war with them but Odin forbids it, so Loki helps him.

Odin revives Sif somehow but has to sleep; this works for Loki of course.

Heimdall lets Thor go to the frost giants world and Loki guides him through while he kills his way to their leader.

We fight Ymir at the end of part 2 and unleash a horror Odin created then sealed.

Meanwhile Loki bargains with a troll and tricks us to send us to Vanaheim so we waste time while he continues his plan.

We try to fix their version of the Bifrost in this chapter to get back home while in Asgard Loki’s plan goes tits up, so he realises he has to get Thor back to save Asgard.

Next chapter is such a slog to get through with the beast pulling us on the river, but at the end we have an easy boss fight. After Loki shows up and we tell him Scabrite chains can capture Mangog, so on to Muspelheim for the next chapter.

We go there, have an easy boss fight with Surtur and head back to Asgard. We kinda defend around the city, after that join Odin for the last boss Mangog, which was one-shot on normal so no real difficulty either.

My thoughts:

The whole game only takes about 5-6 hours. Doesnt really follow the actual movies plot, they just wished to profit from the movies fans. It’s janky, laggy and has terrible framerates on PS3 Super Slim. Classic movie tie-in game quality—even the actors phoned it in, you can hear how unenthusiastic they are voicing their characters.

I finally played and finished this amazingly janky, laggy, buggy game with terrible controls but had a blast all the same. Heres some of my thoughts and some screenshots of it.

-The game looks and feels like it was made in a dollar-store laptop in a week.

-Follows the story of the movie, skips lots of stuff.

-Every time Eragon says Brom's name i heard bro and laugh.

-No Orik😩

-Also a lot of characters just not there bu Orik was a favorite of mine.

-Battle under Farthen Dur is just them asking you to kill 400 guys, not even Urgals. Just some Galbatorix soldiers who keeps yelling the king will get me or something. 😃

-Final battle with Durza is so Mehh.

Every couple of minutes you think how with a good studio and dedicated writers who are fans you can get an amazing game. Even with all this i had a good time playing this game.

65 hours total playtime if you're wondering without DLC's.

Found on a random instagram page. If you know the OC share their page so i can see more of this.
