Was there similar to Computer Bild, always a CD with demos / full versions of various games

Currently it seems to be so the USK version does not allow the dismemberment of zombies when they lie on the ground

So just for the old gamer hares this game is almost a 100% buy

Played part 1, also did a playthrough in co-op with buddies.

Was somehow already a cool game, I like such settings...
In the end, unfortunately, the mission design has pretty much limited to : go to point a and get thing y and take it to B.
In co-op still fun.

From part 2 not so much seen so far, let's see...
I do not have to crush zombies lying on the ground, but generally uncut is better.

But now I got resi 4 remake and will play it in the near future... 😃

For me it makes no difference since the voice output is English either way I decided to go for the Pegi version but I also don't like to support the censorship mania of the USK since I mean if it's already FSK 18 why censor ?

My Uncut Pegi version is also coming tomorrow from Amazon .

Unfortunately only as PS5 version, would have preferred to get it as PC version .
But since the game is only distributed digitally and currently only comes out for the EPIC Games Store it is very difficult to get the uncensored version on PC .
Epic Games forbids VPN use by AGB and therefore it is almost impossible to play the uncut version on PC. Unless you Risk getting your Epic Games store account closed.

So I have a solution if you have never bought anything with the account you can just change your country but you also have the option to make a second Epic account and in country you take AT then the code will automatically be AT version when entered

That's how a buddy of mine did it but I decided to buy the USK version for PC and the Pegi version for PS5

Funny enough the only difference is :

International : enemies can be dismembered on the ground
USK : opponents can not be dismembered on the ground

What is going on with them to come up with such a earth shattering restriction what a bullshit

I got the info from YouTube that AT accounts with German IP automatically get the DE version in the Epic Games Store even with AT key and when using VPN the account is locked because of " suspicious activity " .


Did it really work for your buddy without VPN ?

Will stay with the PS5 version the slightly worse graphics and lower FPS are ok with the game . At least there is a 60 fps mode.

How come you buy the game for PC and PS5 ?

Played Dead Island 2 for a few hours yesterday.

I won't spoil here, but I can only say this much.

There are a few bugs but I think that will be patched.

Graphics are excellent and detailed.
Sound is also very good.

About the gameplay itself?

Well, there is a story, but everything is somehow the same as in the predecessor - or so it seems to me.

You level up, you can buy weapons - quite a few even.

Each character has its strengths and weaknesses, etc. again...

You fight your way through thousands of zombies and after a certain time everything repeats itself.

Pair of weird and new zombies are added.

The locations also very detailed but unfortunately no open-world, good for players: inside who do not like to get lost.

Everything has its direction and its place.

Sometimes you can't open doors, but have to take a detour - the developers have missed the boat.

Because even if you run detours, these have no added value.

All in all, it's a tool for splatter and gore freaks.

I miss a bit of tension buildup and a decent story, but I knew that beforehand, that there is no such thing, like in Days Gone.

Short conclusion:

It's pure carnage.

You can own it but you don't have to !

Challenges are almost none, because you are always supplied with weapons and the gameplay is simple.

In contrast to the predecessor, there are also night scenes, which again provide a bit of atmosphere.

For such a repeatedly postponed release or production time, I had hoped for more.

I'm not through yet but after 3 hours of intense slaughter, I had to turn off.

In my top 5 it will not come - because somehow all already seen and played.

That is my impression.

Have fun with it.

LG
