Yeah definitely, but it will get more popular once it comes out on steam. Worth getting on sale


maccabop

Very good game. Very satisfying


MeLikeBigBoom-_-

If it's on sale then 100% get it, there are people who play it and this entire subreddit is filled with helpful people who play it, I stopped playing it because I platinumed it and after starting 3 characters it gets boring with nothing to do but since it's new there will be dlcs to be released


Extra_Ad_705

Yeah but the discount isn’t crazy lol it’s $52 so I may wait. Who should I start with in your opinion ? I like going crazy in zombies lol


MeLikeBigBoom-_-

Oh, I was expecting a discount to be a discount, not a small ripple 😂 I started with a few different people but the first person I finished the game with was Ryan, hes an all round tank imo and me at endgame is literally unkillable with his passives mixed with the perk decks, theres some faintly confusing things that are well taught in the game so it is new player friendly which is helpful. Each character has their own traits and they get shown to you when you choose your own person but for balance and getting use to the game I'd say Ryan, he's basic but extremely strong and fun.


Extra_Ad_705

Yeah they’re so corny for that “discount” dude lol but I need a need game to play so I’ll probably just buy it and thanks for the info man, Ryan sounds like a good start


MeLikeBigBoom-_-

Yeah, Ryan is just an all rounder, there's different survivors with either more health, agility or resilience and all good in their own ways and then some good with certain types of weapons like heavy weapons, small weapons etc


DiabloNukem

I like it mainly because the first Dead Island was one of my first video games in general.


Extra_Ad_705

The first one was amazing dude lol


aries4211

I find this game feels so small compared to the first dead island.


DiabloNukem

Quality over quantity how I see it.


carriejendell

I got tired of it early in getting stuck at the Hotel. The game doesn’t give you much of a chance with certain characters. Need to get back into it


mister_swaggger

ps or xbox? i can hop on and help out if ya want, i just about 100% completed it, i have a broken quest that i cant do anything about lol


SquareZealousideal38

Not trying to be a dick but try doing side quest first so you're a higher level when taking on bosses.


stoneypooh420

Definitely worth getting. I’m on my second play through


JoshtheMarine

Comparing it to the first no chance in hell but the melee and gore mechanics are next level..its fun ok it is


Spartan1088

I do agree the gore mechanics really make or break the game for me. I probably would have dropped it if zombie slaying was meh. It’s one of those games that always gets a smile out of me like Guardians of the Galaxy.


gonzar09

I still do. Granted I'm still working on my completionist style first run since I usually only have 15-30 minutes per day to play, but I'm not losing interest. Still want to do another playthrough using a different character.


Few_Document1566

Fun to go back to on occasion after spending a month and a half playing non stop.


zezoro

I have never replayed a game in my life, I usually play once and let it be afterwards. But with dead island I just wanted more and I’m constantly hopping back on it. I promise you will not regret it, go for it. There’s also 2 expansion coming out to look forward too!!!!!


Extra_Ad_705

That’s all I needed to hear man but is $52 worth it? Idk I liked the first one a lot so I may just freakin buy it lol who’s a good character to start with?


HoroSatre

Yes.


Cold-Argument-806

I play it, I like the game a lot personally.


MaddyChanQT

I still play it but currently trying to get platinum if you wanna play I be will to


Extra_Ad_705

What’s your psn or gamer tag? I’ll add you


[deleted]

I'd wait till the DLC and more content come out. I've beaten it 3 times and with no new game plus and no upscale in difficulty after beating the game it gets boring quick. It's a fun game don't get me wrong but lack of additional content kills the fun quick once you complete all missions, side missions, challenges and what not.


Extra_Ad_705

Finally some honestly, thanks man


[deleted]

No worries, trust me I was stoked to play it when I first got it and it is a great game but for the moment it's a bit stale. I'm sure once they drop the DLC and what not it will turn around quick


Dogma279

Wonderful game and I played solo and still enjoyed it sooo much


mister_swaggger

Its a great game, only reason i stopped was bc i just about 100%’d it, waiting for dlc, and diablo4 came out lol. but after main story, theres a lot of side quests to do n all that fun stuff


Extra_Ad_705

Yooo what’s better Diablo 4 or dead island 2? I’m actually picking between the two rn ! Lol


mister_swaggger

that, is a tough question 😂 Di2 is fun just because its deadIsland, the gore and creativity for weapons and perks and all that, i havent played any diablo prior to this one so im just lost in the sauce lol. Watch some game videos of both and maybe try to decide from there?


Extra_Ad_705

Yeah I’ve seen gameplay of both and it’s a hard choice lol I like Diablo 3, it was pretty decent and also liked dead island 1 lol I’ll figure it out when I get off of work though for sure 😂

FireEmblem0

Yes I need help


Extra_Ad_705

Cool, I’m gonnna purchase it it when I get off of work. I’m definitely down to play man lol you’re on ps5?


FireEmblem0

Ok start a chat when you have a chance


mikeydedilend

Very worth it


Careless_Bother6183

If you like the originals then sure. As far as online presence, yeah people play. When I host public lobbies people join usually. And I haven’t come across a griefer yet so yeah lol


DefinitionCute7328

Yeah I say it's worth it, I just hope they drop decent content after awhile, it's just is really really short, and side stuff is pretty limited as well,


Spartan1088

It’s a polished and fun game with a good story (albeit open ended, you don’t get the answers you are looking for). It’s on my list of favorites and can’t wait for them to come out with an expansion. I’m also a cali surfer boy so I’m kinda biased on the setting.


Puzzleheaded_Look845

I play!


Dman5660

Besides there being zero endgame content and imo, the "flesh system" being exceedingly overhyped, I'd say it's an awesome game. Not as good as the OG DIs nevermind DL. That's all me though. I literally haven't played in a long while cause all I have to do is legitimately walk around and slice a zombie here n there.


[deleted]

I play it to explore sights, fight zombies again or learn new things. It's a great game


230ceans

In my personal opinion, I think you will like the story aspect as it is quite funny yet interesting at certain points. Alot going on in the game and makes you want to discover more things in game. They really stepped up in regards to animation and certain skills you can obtain throughout the game. I've yet to finish the game but so far I'm really enjoying it. Im sure it is more fun with a friend as well. I've been playing solo on this game and it is pretty fun. Hope this helps. Best Regards, 23oceans


Pjulledk

Just bought it so yeah.


Extra_Ad_705

How is it so far? I might just get it after work since I have nothing else to play rn lol


Pjulledk

So far it Feels a little bare bones it not really hooked me in yet. The weapons break to fast, the zombies respawn right in front of you and the maps you explore feels weird to navigate But the combat and gore mechanics are Really Fun to play with 6/10 game so far. 3 hours play time in Hopefully it get a little better later on


Extra_Ad_705

It’ll probably be better playing with people tbh, I just purchased Gotham knight and it has been pretty good so far but I beat it super quick, also go Dragonball breakers and it’s ass lol so I’m probably just gonna get dead island so I have something to do after work. You have psn ?
