Dead Island 2

It's a fine game. Not the same dramatic or horror elements as the first game, but still enjoyable. I played it multiplayer with my boyfriend, which I'd reccomend, as I find it can be a little dull without it. It didn't take itself seriously, and at times became a little too meta, like the influencer girl who films you killing zombies. I did like the aspect of being able to go feral on them. The story was meh. Not good not bad, but okay. The ending felt a little too open ended, I didn't love it, but it is what it is. I also got the DLC, Haus and SoLA. SoLA wasn't amazing. It was a large map with large spaces for annoying blobs to attack you from the ground. There was no real music until a large boss. For a music festival, I would've loved more funky tunes. Going from one side of the map to the other was a pain. It was fun in multiplayer, but would feel like a grind in single player. But Haus was actually awesome! If you're not sure on getting a DLC, Haus was what I would've wanted the whole game to be! Gross, kinda funny, scary, and a little sad - the story had me hooked! The enemies were original and the atmosphere was so different to the base game. The horror houses and the forest were my personal faves. I was dissapointed to play SoLA after Haus, as it set up great expectations. Also, the script for Dani was really rough. Ryan has a lot more character and cheeky one liners, and Dani was a little annoying to play and the fake accent got old quick. I enjoyed the game, but wouldn't open it again now that I've finished the main quests and DLC.
