The zombies and bandits must have spent the last year training as I once again felt vulnerable. When I finished the standalone game, I felt overpowered and beheading zombies felt like a sport so when I began the expansion with my high level character and my potent weapons, I expected to maintain my godly presence… However, I was wrong. Locating downed planes, exploring underwater caves or saving children from peril are some examples and the mixture kept me both entertained and engaged.ĭying Light: The Following is a grueling yet satisfying experience.

This gap between the two helped to make my experience with the expansion feel refreshing. We have seen a couple of add-ons such as The Bozak Horde during the past twelve months but nothing as revolutionary as The Following.
