    I couldn't believe my eyes watching this. I mean, I actually like Techland, but this looks so far beyond anything they've done before, both visually and mechanically. It puts Dead Island to shame, that's for sure. If the full game can pull off what this video shows, this will be an instant classic.

    The game looks absolutely gorgeous. The world looks huge and vibrant, and I really liked the constant wind that affected every little thing. The zombies, combat, and weapons look more or less like those of Dead Island, but combined with the free-running mechanics, that puts a fresh spin on them. I loved how many zombies they were able to fit on screen, too. They actually seem very menacing in large hordes.

    I wish they would've showed some UI. I understand why they didn't for the purpose of the video, but Dead Island's UI was generally poor, and since Dying Light clearly shares many of the same mechanics, I just hope that stuff will be more manageable.
