It's crazy how many games I compare to Dying Light even now. Here we are in 2023 and Dying Light 2 can't beat the first game, Dead Island 2 can't beat it and etc. The first Dying Light is atmospheric action that shows you how regular people are more dangerous than zombies, the nights are deadly (hi, DL2) and - well - just as light in the title, the hope for the rescue is slowly dying while you're completing the plot. Most sidequests are interesting and smashing zombies feels good and satisfying (hi, Dead Island 2).
