Should I buy this game and/or the first one?

[Lothemar]

Hi there,

So as the title says, should I buy this game and/or the first Dead Island game, since I never played it before, but been milling on this one for a while now, ever since it came out, I did like the visuals and I do love this survival zombie games like Dying Light and Left 4 Dead, even Killing Floor ones. How's the content in this one and the first one if anyone knows, does it offer a lot in terms of content and gameplay, upgrades, customization and so on. Thank you in advance.

the old games are very dated and janky, if you didn't play em back in the day i'm not sure if you're like em

i don't mention other games in other games Forums ..
(and normally don't respond to a post that does)

regardless if they are close to game play i just mention 'i've played similar games to' ..

>You should get both and play the older version(s) first ..

normally that's how you get a feel of where the game was in IT's series compared to where it is today ..

Take in consideration of their series aspects to compare now ..

for instance in Dead Island we had special mods (blue prints) of which we had to not only find but were puzzles to figure out ..

They should bring back the skulls ..

~it was a blast

Fair point, and thank you so much for your input! I'll definitely buy the first game since it's like dirt cheap now.

People praise the first one, i find it horribly janky and boring. It shows its age quite well. I dont get it.
I like the sequel, it improved on things i disliked about the first, but it is a repetitive rinse and repeat type game.

Either way, it's a mixed bag. I personally recommend DI2. But only because mechanically it feels better and combat kicks more ass
