Pretty sure that it will come with Denuvo as an extra “bonus” though…
I’m not even pirating this shlt. I’m a pirate, but I have some morals left.
Liked the gameplay trailer. The other trailer… not at all.
That said, I’m still keeping an eye on this, the female character at 0:49 in the second trailer doesn’t look as f?u?c?k?ing ugly as your typical Western “AAA” game trash (hint: Aloy from Soyrizon and Nadine from Unfarted 4), however, the f?a?g who runs the Dambuster Studios Twitter account haven’t changed their profile picture from LGBT flag into their normal logo, that’s why I shouldn’t raise my expectations.
Speaking of Dead Island which was developed by Techland, they also developed the Call of Juarez series, just look at Kim from The Cartel, that was back before SJWs hijacked the Western entertainment industries and when even Western developers made n?i?g?g?e?r?s look attractive and didn’t care about identity politics.

That was a typical western female character from the era, hardly deserving of praise but interesting as a case study in how far things changed.
Well, I’m not saying she’s super-attractive like say, Samus, Mai Shiranui or other made in Japan characters at the time, but still I’d much rather look at her than the ugly transgender “non-binary” homosexual s?h?i?t? that makes me want to puke that we get in almost every “AAA” trash released nowadays.
I know, i’m just saying western female characters from that era looked that way, cute and tomboyish.
Let me try to summarize the Hegelian dialetic involved in the process:
>Vulture activist and media allies: Games/gamers are sexist.
>Naive/dumb mainstream gamers: No, we are not sexist.
>Naive/malicious devs, publishers, etc: Look at those passionate anti sexist people, let’s hire the vulture activist in a consulting role and make sure our games are not sexist.
A few months/years later when a new batch of new politically correct games is about to be released:
>Naive/dumb mainstream gamers: Look how inclooosive those games are, snowflake activist forever owned.
> Devs/publishers: Thanks fellow activist, now no one gonna complain about sexism in our games
> vulture activist: Thanks for the free money, still much work needs to be done. And btw, your games/gamers are racist and transphobic
And a new cycle begins…
The cinematic trailer was fine. I think it managed to tread between the fine line of being over the top and somewhat realistic without forcing in nonsensical breaking the fourth wall type of humour as they always do.
When it comes to physical appearances, SJWs probably want characters in entertainment to reflect the proportions in reality (i.e. most people in this world, specifically in the west, looking average in terms of attractiveness). Male gaze, in their world view, is the other prominent issue that dictates the outcome of their character designs. So it reflects every aspect of it regardless if they’re a “ni**er” or a “cracker”. Interesting use of language btw. Probably coming from those degenerate chan sites.
It looks like a game made 8 years ago…oh, right.
Not bad but the Epic G@y Store is a deal breaker.
Already like it more than DL2.
Graphics look like they’re from a 2014 PS4 game.
nah bro just freeze it frame by frame. You can actually see the RTX at work. Don’t be a hater lol
Ray tracing applied to art assets that look like they’re a decade old is like putting lipstick on a pig.
By zombies, for zombies.
That is a dude, right? Or is it just a really ugly women?

yeah it’s definitely a dude.

Please tell me this is not the same person. ?

this image needs no title nor words lmao
a black man in the trailer? About time to represent minorities, finally a studio who is not afraid to make a statement! Nobody done this before, I’m literally shaking https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bfc485a7e791b0447d63a3081dd1ffc2c1adab7c001deaca9cd3cf28f2403267.jpg
edit: oh no, the second trailer ruined everything, too many white people wtf
can’t tell if you’re sarcastic or not. lmao
Damn this looks detailed and gory as f*k. But as Allways a ni**er / faq or an ugly pig for a woman as the protagonist …F*k this crap!
And NO I aint a damn racist, but come one these days it’s disgusting the woke POS political propaganda nonsense everywhwere..just to brainwash the kids. Thank the Globalist Elite pigs for that!
They all need to be wiped from the earth the swines!
I feel so NOT represented in current games, seriously. Not even being sarcastic.
When are REAL white people coming back?
And it’s not just about the race, but even the way they talk, their humor, their mindset…
Everything just feels “black”. Even most white characters just act black now.
I really hate how black culture has now spread everywhere and erased literally everything else. ?
Also, is it just me who prefer when zombie games/movies are creepy?
I’m really turned off when they play funky music in those trailers.
But I guess it’s mandatory now that black culture is dominating us all, huh?
Anyway, I don’t want to party and end up being “blacked” in every hole (I guess that’s how the game ends??), I want to have to feel like I’m being stalked by mindless zombies, having to hide anywhere I can, and maybe craft some improbable weapons.
Oh wait. I guess I should just play 7 days to Die, then.?
Even the 1985 comedy/horror movie “Return of the Living Dead” managed to be more creepy than this.
And the first Left 4 Dead was much better at creating a creepy atmosphere, thanks to its great soundtrack.
Oh God, they released the Kraken!!
Not sharing the excitement at all.
First of all, I feel so NOT represented in current games, seriously.
Not even being sarcastic.

Let’s not even talk about rap or even those fake edgy rock bands…
