Yes. And no.

I much prefer the rope physics in DL2. And the parkour. But the story, and sidemissions arent as good. And nights are less dark, and less dangerous. And melee combat feels wrong. And grinding zombie parts to item upgrades for so many gadgets, its just too slow and too expensive. In the end I had fun with it though.

And melee combat feels wrong.

I just played the game during the free weekend on Steam and stopped when I hit the first zombie.

What happened? Hitting zombies in DL1 was crunchy and satisfying. Now you just spam left mouse button, there's no weight in your attacks at all.

Wow this is very disappointing, I loved both melee and parkour from the first game. Melee being so bad now is a red flag. I have this game wishlisted for when I have time to play it. Thanks for the heads up.
