Dispatch is a solid choice-based game with a cool superhero twist. The story is engaging, the visuals are clean, and the voice acting is surprisingly good. It’s a fun, well-made narrative game worth af 10/10 we need a season 2 ASAP !!

I really enjoyed Dying Light: The Beast, but it feels quite short and lacking in content compared to Dying Light 1 and Dying Light 2. After about 30 hours of gameplay (including some AFK time), I had completed all the side quests, safe zones, transformer stations, and the main story, which is much less than my 80-hour first playthrough of Dying Light 2. The game overall feels more like a DLC than a full-fledged sequel, mainly due to this limited content.

The Beast features two survivor groups: the town hall inhabitants in the first half of the game and the infected survivors in the caves later on. While there are side quests involving these groups, they feel less impactful compared to Dying Light 2, where your choices could save characters or prevent their deaths. After reaching the caves, it’s like the town hall group no longer exists in terms of side content, and they only reappear later in the main story. This separation and lack of meaningful side quest consequences reduce the game’s depth and replayability.

The map is visually beautiful but is mostly made up of roads to drive through, with only a few small towns for parkour. This is a shame because parkour was one of my favorite aspects of the series, and here it feels minimal and limited. Personally, I much preferred the paraglider from Dying Light 2 over driving vehicles in The Beast.

The skill tree is also quite small and underwhelming, mainly recycling abilities from previous games. The new “beast” skill section only levels up through main quests, so there’s little incentive to explore freely, unlike Dying Light 2, where you could find inhibitors scattered all over the map during free roam.

Music-wise, the first game had great tracks, and Dying Light 2 had an amazing, varied soundtrack fitting many situations. In contrast, The Beast tends to repeat the same music over and over, especially during driving sequences, which can get repetitive.

Where Dying Light: The Beast really stands out is its main story, which I found very good and satisfying. I was especially happy to see Aiden back — he’s one of my favorite protagonists along with Kyle. I was worried he might be forgotten, so it was great to have him play a part. The cinematics are another highlight; unlike the previous games which stuck mostly to first-person, these cutscenes show the surroundings beautifully and are quite captivating.

Finally, the night atmosphere is back to being truly terrifying and tense, unlike in Dying Light 2. You can barely see without a flashlight, and there are always 2-3 volatiles close by, making night gameplay stressful and dangerous again — a welcome return to the series’ roots.

Overall, while Dying Light: The Beast didn’t fully meet my expectations and feels somewhat light on content, I still recommend it — just not at the full $60 price. The story is strong, and it’s a solid Dying Light experience, but it doesn’t quite reach the heights of the first two games. Still, I had a good time playing it.
