yo im writing this review mainly to warn any potential players about its archaic save system:
Be wary when selecting the options on the main menu "Load from Last Save" and "Load from Last Inn Rest" or whatever it's called. They're self explanatory, last save means you'll load to the last manual or auto save while inn rest means you'll load to the last inn you manually rested at.
I make this distinction because I ran into a glitch where guards attacked me at the flippin bakbuttahl prison even after they invited me in (you need either a disguise or a pass regardless of any invitation) and I wanted to reload after I killed like 4 named NPCs. So I loaded up the last save but the game saved immediately after I wiped out the entire bakbuttahl prison guard. So I was like WELL I can just load the last saved inn, I must've rested somewhere in town right? Nu uh, I last rested at the previous town over 4 hours ago. Well nuts, I guess I'll live with the glitch to avoid doing the entire gang quest and lose all that tedious progress. Go back to main menu. WHOOPS! Looks like the option to load the last save is GONE. I guess once you choose to load from the last inn you rested at it deletes your manual/auto save. So uh... woooo gang quest again!!!!
Every good thing people say about this game is real and I do ultimately recommend the game, but I don't see any reason why this game can't have multiple save slots especially if it's gonna store two different kinds of saves that could dramatically differ in playtime. Just be mindful that loading an inn will delete your other save option, and don't forget to hire my blind mage pawn Blinkin or he'll starve to death; UAUNSBR8J1Z1

will not return until some sort of age verification system is in place :^(

oh my god i am so sick of ice cream please no more dango i beg of you get away from- *ohmhmmgmgff*

do not play this game

oh god they're so h ot

unfunniest game ever made both in writing and its own practices
and im not even a funny guy!!!!!
give me my friends back!!!

i played through the storymode on the game's hardest difficulty by myself
i died. a lot. it was a personal experience.
tips for any other solo players; save all of your shivs for the big boss that kills you in one hit
you'll know him by the guy who kills you in one hit. the bigger one
also spam stamina potions
i have yet to really dive into the raid portion but the story mode left me a little unenthusiastic

developers, take more inspiration from a game called Dark Messaih.
it too has a kick and just like the base game of dying light it lets you kill enemies using the environment and the kick
you will like the kick.
hell raid does not do this. there are no spikes or cool environmental thingies that allow me to kill enemies in fun or creative ways (besides a single lava pit) something that is much needed for a harder difficulty where swarms could be diffused in strategic ways (falling chandeliers, IRON MAIDENS that close after kicking enemies into them, etc)
bear in mind this is also a parkour game
there are rafters and those are fun to climb, but they're not set up in any satisfying way other than to boost yourself over simple obstacles
it's like the game forgot you could slide and vault
i found my solo run was hard and required exploits to complete whereas my experience with a single partner made everything way too easy even with the nightmare difficutly.

but it really was ultimately sorta fun and will tear your hair out - it needs more love for it to be more enjoyable
you get a lot of experience from it so it serves as a neat thing to do for a short time while running through the campaign
the weapons you can bring over are pretty brutal too
just listen to like hardcore rap music while you do it
if they could license like a rap album for this it would seriously complete the experience
dark fantasy and rap was always a banger of a combo for me
a potion system would be kinda cool too like rare potions with short effects (super kicks, exploding throws, etc)

so yeah get it on sale because they'll hopefully keep adding thingies in the future, for now it's a no
im a masochist so if you're not one for miserable experiences maybe grab a friend or three
except the finale is glitched in coop when in nightmare mode so yeah

MAKE A SEQUEL CAPCOM!!! YOU CAN'T GO WRONG!
