The first game was one of my favorite FPS experiences this generation. Can't wait for this sequel.

Chris Avellone writing = Day 1.

I really wanted to like the first game, and yeah, the gameplay was a lot of fun. But good god, the story was just so much a case of "who gives a shit? Skip cutscene."
I really just played what I did of it for the co-op experience, because yeah, parkouring around killing zombies was great fun.

So like Henry said, with a better story (which is almost surely the case; with Avellone there, I may as well take this as classic Fallout, just a bit less-apocalyptic), I'm there.

Yeah, the story was nothing to write home about but there were at least a couple of setpieces that stuck with me and made the experience all worth it: one being that you were thrown into a gladiator type of arena stripped of your weapons and gadgets against hordes of zombies, and the final act. Plus the DLC was a beast all by itself. You couldn't anymore rely on climbing to tall places for protection most of the time in the new maps and the added mechanics had a Mad Max vibe to it.
