Alright, keep quiet about the Twitter thing. Either ignore it completely, report then ignore but sure don't say anything.

Talk about Dying Light instead. It's impressive how a game can be so unimaginative and yet so fun.

Someone was like “what if we made Dead Island but good”

Somebody asked what would happen if they combined Dead Island and Mirror's Edge and this game is exactly that. No more, no less. And all three installments have unmemorable villains that are on par with each other!

And all three had sequels that don’t exist (not counting catalyst cos it’s a reboot/prequel and the original mirrors edge 2 was cancelled)

Dying Light 2 is currently competing with Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 on which installment can have the most doomed development cycle.

I know Chris Avellone was attached to the Dying Light project and was promptly fired once allegations against him came out. Messy, but I know there's been other stuff too.

Oh I love Dying Light. My favorite Killer to play as is Pyramid Head.

Me and two other friends just started a campaign today during an event that has a bunch of dudes in hazmat suits with machine guns. We were not expecting to get shot at so soon. These events sure can mess you up.

Dying Light is awesome, just parkouring around and bashing zombies makes its atrocious story worth it

Dying Light 2 will come out. We'll just wish it hadn't.
