I love the first Dying Light. Kyle Crane is such an icon. The way he speaks, the parkour! It is intoxicating to play as Crane.

In Dying Light two, the developer for no reason replaces him with a generic unmemorable young man. I was so disappointed Many fans are disappointed.

Now, they are back to the original formula. I am excited again to play as Crane jumping off the roof into an open window.

What is endshittafication? You mean spyware? Tenent is a contest company. I won't be surprised if it is mandated by mainland China to have their software companies install bots in their app.

    It generally means to degrade a product to maximize profits for shareholders. In this case, it is very likely to be done by locking content or quality of life features behind microtransactions. That is the usual trend with games made by developers after Tencent invests. Hopefully it will just be cosmetics, or just being able to unlock things easier then in game, but even that can be a slippery slope considering they may increase the grind required to absurd levels in order to push people to spend money.
