I'm a simple man: if you tell me that a video game has parkour, I want to play it. That brought me to Dying Light sometime after its release in 2015, but what kept me a fan of the franchise was The Following. It built perfectly on top of the original title's gameplay loop, adding interesting new twists, characters, mechanics, and more, and it seems like Dying Light: The Beast is almost the exact same thing. I say almost because while The Following was a DLC for the first game, Dying Light: The Beast is an exciting standalone zombie adventure game. It is connected to the first and second game, brings back Kyle Crane, and expands on the franchise similarly to the way that The Following expanded on the first title.
