    Dead Island Riptide is a lot harder to jump straight into if you didn't play Dead Island first.
    In Dead Island, the game incrementally introduces new zombie types throughout the Acts. In Riptide, the game throws pretty much all of them at you within a few hours.
    And the game in general has higher density of enemies almost constantly whereas in Dead Island, they took it easy on you in the Resort and some sections of town. Plus the tower defense sections which don't exist in Dead Island.

    Kevin blowing himself up with a grenade while drunk made me think. Games with drunk mechanics should really do more than floompy vision. Like double vision. Or when you throw a grenade it looks like you did good, but then it blows up way off from where it looked like it went, or cuts to an animation of it actually being at your feet before you die. Some games do the random puking, but they could do more.

      i remember how you could not take a hit.
      If a Zombie had an item in hand and threw it, you could not doge it (likely you also didnt see the Z in the first placce) and it was a guaranteed one hit kill, because they did damage based on the weapon it threw, which likely was much higher than your life.
      Dodging was impossible due to some sort of lag and or to small movements/exhaustion.
      Knockback was compleley random and never worked, unless you threw your weapon.
      Guns were unusable due to the level scaling making them do no damage (ir was that just in the first one, where headshotting a human was an instant kill but Zs took like 30 bullets?)
      The ultimate of the blunt weapon user were his knuckels and the one of the fist user was a stick, which just made no sense.
      Throwables were useless in higher levels.

    I remember this game very well, I platinum it in September of this year and it was a nightmare.
    A friend of mine, who had already played the whole series, convinced me to buy it since it was discounted at a ridiculous price. After about 2/3 days I start having headaches due to the motion blur of the game (especially when climbing the rock walls through roots) and the visual all busted. After about 2 weeks we finished the game and I got angry, because I told my friend to wait before seeing the last cut scene, so that I could get all the missing trophies but nothing, he convinced me to watch it anyway and, according to him, “even after the last cutscene you can still go back to the last checkpoint”. So eventually I found myself, alone, having to do everything I play AGAIN. I was so frustrated that about a year later I convinced my friend to play together again because he had tricked me; after less than 1 week he decided to abandon me again and it was again just myself and Xian wandering around that damned island. Luckily I finished the game but first I had to deal with a thousand bugs regarding bugged collectibles

    Dead island 100% changed the game for zombie games, and was super fun, and ended up giving birth to one of the best zombie games ever ( dying light ) and idk how people hated it so much… many people grew up on the game and it was amazing, and me and my entire friend group have played it on every platform, and still do to this day… also for “so many things to hate” and “not being a good game” everyone has played it, and everyone talks about it to this day so.

    Not gonna lie. If dying light didn't come out this was gonna be the best zombie game in the gaming history. When i was a teenager i played dead island first than played mirror's edge. Than thought to myself. "Man if only there was a game combine this 2 games, damn.. that would be awesome". After that they announced dying light. I remember the times trying to play dying light like 15 20 fps. i was searching the whole youtube for fps boost :p good times.. good times.. oh and yeah, when i played left 4 dead for the first time (that was my first zombie game) i was so scared i asked my grandma to sleep with her. she said "You wanna sleep with me because of that game isn't it ?" I was too embarrassed to tell her the truth. I miis my granma so f*cking much... respect and love your elders, when they gone they gone..

    A zombie killing game doesnt need a story, it just needs zombie killing. It can be goofy.
    Hell i remember the first time i played the first game with one of my friends. The scene that i remember most is the first ripper encounter. Im poking fun of it calling it a predator look alike and the such. Im playing the throwing expert, and tell him to wait after the cutscene, of course he asked why? Right. Patience. The ripper starts running through the alley way, i ready some basic blunt weapon, it gets a little bit closer. I toss this weapon, straight in the head... it collapses. Not dead, my friend not missing a beat throws his weapon, as soon as it gets back up. Then we run up and beat it to death, fun times.

    Fun art fact, the reason the eyes look horrible and terrifying is because you can see the top of the iris, commonly the top of the iris is hidden by the upper lid. The upper lid is commonly raised to express shock or to go “bug eyed” and if the eyes are stuck like this they become uncanny.

    Dead Island is perhaps one of my top video game franchises. Yes Riptide feels more like a large DLC for the first game but fact is the game itself is still fun. The wonky physics can cause laughs and the atmosphere in Dead Island 1 is *just* unnerving enough where it doesn't feel like it's *trying* to be a horror game. Additionally, it's one of the only games to actually use a proper skill tree system ala Borderlands and Skyrim, which as a fan of RPG's I'm a big, well, fan of. It's not perfect of course, and it's spinoff games have been a little... flat, but with Dead Island 2 recently given a release date I can't help but feel a little nostalgic to go back to perhaps my favorite zombie universe.
