Find your humanity in Dying Light

Ed!

When the zombie apocalypse finally hits, I recommend staying far away from me. Not because of the fact that I’m likely to be chowed on pretty soon after the outbreak, but because I’m more than willing to take a cricket bat and bash in some human skulls in order to survive said doomsday scenario. Am I losing my humanity? Buddy, it vanished a long time ago, much like it did in Dying Light.

Here’s the latest trailer from Techland and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for Dying Light, aptly titled ‘Humanity.’ APT I SAY! It’s all about the survivors of the apocalypse, or as my copied and pasted press release puts it:

Techland and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment released today a new trailer for Dying Light entitled “Humanity”. It shows the horrible reality of living in a zombie infested quarantine zone and how it changes people inside.

Dying Light’s “Humanity” trailer shifts focus from the infected to the survivors – people who had enough strength and luck to endure the outbreak. Yet, the worst is not over as in the quarantine zone every day is a struggle and every night is a challenge. Sadly, human mind can withstand only so much.

In what ways does the quarantine zone influence you? Does killing the infected really leave no trace on your mind? How long can you defend your humanity? What will happen when you eventually break?

I’m honestly looking forward to this game. My once pristine white undies are sporting 50 shades of brown at the shift between night and day, as the setting sun throws deadly undead obstacles at your way. I’ve loved the work that Techland has done so far with zombie games, such as Dead Island, which was a fun game with friends, but severely lacking on the single-player side.

Hopefully, Dying Light can find the balance between the two sides of the apocalypse when it shambles in later this year for PC, PlayStation 4,PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

        Yep! I double-checked, and it is both a new and current-gen game.

          So Zwei is current gen, Dying Light is current gen, MGS is current gen,Murdered Soul is current gen, TitanFall is current gen…What exactly is there to make one go next gen then?So far I only see Infamous as a ‘true’ next gen attraction….

            Witcher 3?

          • RinceandLeSIGH

            February 12, 2014 at 10:28

            Just finished Witcher 2 (last night) and am really sad 3 isn’t out yet.

          • VampyreSquirrel

            February 12, 2014 at 10:30

            Start 2 again… there are a few more endings 😛

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:31

            I still really need to get Witcher 2 from you, if it would actually work though..

            I had faith, then Nick said somestuff on Fb I can’t remember but won’t be so easy to just put onto my console..

          • RinceandLeSIGH

            February 12, 2014 at 10:32

            Yes, I believe so. Though right now I am downloading Metro: Last Nights and have yet to get into Sleeping Dogs and Red Dead! No time!

          • VampyreSquirrel

            February 12, 2014 at 10:33

            Yeah… know how you feel. I’m still trying to get into Hitman Absolution, and have to get a few games downloaded onto the 360 too.

            February 12, 2014 at 10:37

            Odd Question, I know may sound dumb, but can you buy games from Xbox live with a debit card or all credit?

          • VampyreSquirrel

            February 12, 2014 at 10:37

            I THINK debit cards work… but will check quickly and confirm.

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:49

            February 12, 2014 at 11:06

            Looks like Credit cards only.

            February 12, 2014 at 10:43

            You really need to play Red dead buddy! its the one game you NEED to play before you die! for the story alone, yes it has aged abit but a great game, wish I didn’t trade mine in, I wanted to play it again other day. lol

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:32

            why you sad, you don’t even have a next gen console yet. That would prob make you want to go get one though am I right?

          • VampyreSquirrel

            February 12, 2014 at 10:32

            I’d totally get a PS4 just for the Witcher 3

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:34

            It looks beautiful. Id get Ps4 for that and infamous

          • RinceandLeSIGH

            February 12, 2014 at 10:34

            To be honest no. I am not ready to go next gen yet.

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:35

            Still too many great games on current, or lack of cashflow?

          • RinceandLeSIGH

            February 12, 2014 at 10:37

            I want to wait till there is a larger base of games and wait till they sort all the bugs out. Also there are plenty games on the PS3 I want, still need a PS3!

          • TiMsTeR1033

            February 12, 2014 at 10:37

            So I am not alone, good to know that I indeed want the Ps3 games I missed.

            February 12, 2014 at 09:53

            Fair enough! There’s no immediate rush at all, but it’s just nice to have that option. My PS4 is quickly becoming my default console now, much to the dismay of my Xbox 360.

            True that, I can understand, owning a vita, 3ds, xbox , ps3 , wiiU and PC lol It’s just, a really really expensive option, right now at least. Not trying to be negative, just, you know. I wana see some real next gen action, or more of it, like The Division

          • VampyreSquirrel

            February 12, 2014 at 10:25

            I don’t know when last I saw you online on your Xbox… but some could say the same about me lol

          • RinceandLeSIGH

            February 12, 2014 at 10:27

            Indeed! 🙂 And yes, download the gold game, I have it, Werner and Andre are also getting it.

      Yup, it’s coming to current and ‘new-gen’. And I must say – the PS4 gameplay trailer they released a few months ago looks REALLY good! This is definitely on my “To get” list.

        Yeah true, but I really thought this was next gen only. Might as well get it on current gen

    Who here played that game during school recess. I think it was called open the gates. You start with one guy in the middle. He picks someone and that guy has to run past him. If he is caught then there’s two in the middle. If he gets through everyone runs to the other side.
    Perfect training for the Zombie Apocalypse

      Oh yeah… Played that a bunch. Although we usually upped the ante and the person in the middle had a tennis ball to help him ‘convert’ the person called through. 🙂
