Dying Light 2 Stay Human is an action role-playing survival horror video game, featuring a zombie apocalyptic-themed open world. Set 15 years after Dying Light, it stars a new protagonist named Aiden Caldwell, who is equipped with various parkour skills. Players can perform actions such as climbing ledges, sliding, leaping off from edges, and wall running to quickly navigate the city. It was confirmed that there are over 3000 parkour animations to give a more fluid free running experience. Tools such as a grappling hook and a paraglider also aid traversal in the city. Aiden can also use the undead to break his fall. The game is mostly melee-based with the majority of fighting using melee weapons. The melee weapons have a limited lifespan and will degrade as the player uses them in combat. Long-range weapons such as crossbows, shotguns, and spears can be used as well. Weapons can be upgraded with different blueprints and components which can be found by breaking down weapons for craft parts. Aiden can also utilize superhuman skills due to the infection. New zombies have been added. Like the first game, the zombies are slow when exposed to sunlight, but they become more aggressive and hostile at night.

![DYING LIGHT 2: Master Co-op Parkour & Combat as Crane & Aiden [FAN MADE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LSa2cyn66M0/mqdefault.jpg)
just a mini project I had i wanted to push while i work on the more juicy things ;)
Mirror Edge felt like those smoothness while Dying Light 2 felt the gritty feeling when doing parkour.Both are good.
"Both are good"
But Mirrors Edge (2009) the best
@@Barikoga I said,both are good :)
Mirror's edge has a much more cinematic feel, but imo DL2 has a lot more control over your character and more movement techs to take advantage of, aswell as being more fun to run around in
if talking about flying to all sides then i call it bullshit since that is the problem with game and makes it unrealistic while game does have more control all those far reaches constant grappling hook spam and paraglider spam makes the game look like this and then it falls back as laggy game since those moves are used by players plus it denies access to pvp area in terms of parkour races and combat since most people use shit like this . While sure i don't have to use it if i don't want to but then they change the game by the community request in a favour of gameplay like this and rest of content was pretty shit since they thought they gonna make community happy when community is a bunch of dorks that just know how to scream "we want dying light 1 in dying light 2" like come one first game wasn't perfect anyways and is back in 2015
@@rokasciurinskas7890 I don't quite understand your point?
I'm not exactly talking about the grappling hook nor paraglider, i'm talking about player control and sole movement by itself. Nor am i talking about DL1 in this.
I've played both games, and i do believe DL2 and MEC both have their own core gameplay, and both are great.
I love the gameplay from both games, and i think the parkour aspect on both games are also handled quite well.
The thing about DL2, is that it's parkour is not realistic, i'm aware of that, but i think anyone is aware too, the game is fun to play, it has great movement, great moves, great player agency, even if in a LOT of times it's not realistic, it's fun, and i personally prefer it over MEC, altough, that's personal taste, hence why in my comment i mentioned how it was my own opinion.
MEC is a lot more restrictive when it comes to player movement, Faith oftenly gets put into animations where you loose control over her, and have to sit back and watch the animation untill you gain back control once more, it happens with vaulting, hopping over fences and whatnot, without being able to choose if you'd rather stay ontop of the fence rather than go past it, or avoid a vault rather than use it to keep going with your speed.
Also goes in with other abilities too, sliding makes you loose momentum once you get up, of course there's the slide-roll, which does remove that, but it also removes your ability to do anything while the rolling animation is playing out, or wallrunning restricting you to only one direction, making you unable to maybe try moving yourself backwards, thus doing a wallrun in an opposite direction to the one you were previously on, even ME's grappling hook only restricting you to the path the game wants you to take.
With DL2, i do feel like there's a lot more room open for player self expression with their movement, flashy techs that let you do really cool stuff, with things like the far jump, slide jumps, air strafing, roll jumps, wallrun combos, cancelling animations, chaining your moves together in order to reach somewhere quicker, or higher. Using an enemy as a platform in order for you to go higher, or using them to break your own fall, using the poles scattered around the map to also break long falls and assist with your movement, ropes to proppel you forward using attacks, chaining them alongside a slide to maintain said momentum, and hundreds of other microdecisions troughout your runs that just make it feel good. All things which i didn't quite experience in ME.
@@ratsukitheblunderingbuffon I like dl2 too, more than MEC but in mirrors edge they force you in that because of how in real life you would jump one direction and try to land somewhere specific while I would prefer minimal air control over doing 180 flying into platform below you plus all those jumps that lets you go two times higher and two times further for no reason is just dumb
far jump high jump or using an enemy as a platform in order for you to go higher are welcome since you are using something to go from not just that Aiden wanted to go inhumanly far just so he wanted to at least make it use volatile powers to fly that far
@@rokasciurinskas7890 Play with mods, they improve parkour and realism in an incredible way
I love the dynamic music for dl2. It makes me wanna keep running
If mirrors edge worked on the bobbing animation to make it more realistic and made the parkour roll also more realistic, it would have been a pretty good comparison between the two, but the game is older so I can’t argue. Dying light 2 wins to be fair
DL2 also has that bobbing animation similar to that. You just have to reduce a setting down to 0 which in this video isn't reduced
YES WE NEE MORE BOOBS ANIMATON!!! "BONK"
Dl2 feels like wood
I wish DL 2 had such fast edge climbing animation
Honestly i think the only problem with mirrors edge is that i dont know where im going most of the time and just end up hitting dead ends
This happened to me all the time
ngl the wall kick was amazing 9:24
The problem with DL2 is the animation. The arms wobble too much, and certain moves such as climbing up feel somewhat sluggish, especially compared to the first game, which offers cleaner animations and snappier camera movements.
That transion to Dl2 at 6:00 was smooth
IKR
Is this sarcasm
damn u move good on dl2... those hook movements blew my mind
9:25 that bounce kick on the wall was sick!
The music makes the parkour so hype in dl2
That dying light 2 soundtrack tho 🔥🔥🔥
Hey it’s zesh funny that I saw your videos on my fyp lol
No matter how much I love Mirror Edge, it doesn't compare to Dying Light
DL2 took the throne. ME still looks great but DL2 has much more traversal mechanics and better level design especially on the second map. There are so many possibilities and when you get it flowing it feels amazing.
I like how Faith climbs ledges instantly, unlike Aiden that just likes to hang on them for no reason
it’s to simulate the weight and absorption of the impact of aiden grabbing ledges while taking a falling no person would be able to climb so fast like that from the force
in some cases the animation probably looks long because the player wasn’t moving forward in the climb animation since if you don’t you will be put in the animation for holding onto a ledge which slows u down a bit
@@JayJay_18_ Yes, and I hate it, Parkour in DL2 is not realistic anyway so they should change it
Have you tried actual parkour? As someone whos trained for 3 years, yes you would hang while your getting a good grip unless you did professional training in a gym to master your muscle up, which Aiden could not.
@@daboi314 DL2 parkour has nothing to do with real parkour. Aiden can run 7 meters up the wall, 8 meters on flat wall, make street long jumps, turn 180 mid air. Why put realism in already unrealistic game, when it's only gonna make it worse.
I know it's realistic this way, that he has to hang and stop, but It's annoying, DL1 didn't had this problem, Crane would just do quick pull ups and it worked so well, I don't know how they missed it in this game.
Just because it's 'realistic' doesn't mean it has to be in the game @@daboi314
🎉Dying light is a pro in parkour Mechanics
I still gotta play all the way through catalyst i loved the first mirrors edge i have catalyst on pc but haven’t finished it
as we can see, dying light is mirror's edge but with zombies. Dying light 1 have the same animations as mirror's edge (some), and the same thing happens on dying light 2.
How do you get grappling hook skins?
I know both are dystopian settings, one is apocalyptic and other is more of an dictatorship
dude you are so good at dying light 2 parkour system.
Mirrors edge has realistic attention to detail in animations and dl2 is just like supernatural sandbox
Lol, it really doesn't. All the parkour and mirrors edge to is definitely impossible for any real person, especially a female. And dying light to you're not really that much of a superhuman, plus it has a pretty good story. And plenty to do in the world where mirror's edge looks very boring.
@@guitarsandcars2586 sexist and flat out wrong in dying light 2 Aiden wallruns 20 stories up in the air and can jump on a zombies shoulder and go 2 stories in the air 😂 bit ridiculous
@@guitarsandcars2586 it doesn't matter ifyou are male or female anyone can do parkour
@@jeejeesupreme3860 the fact you used the buzzword "sexist" when trying to argue with him for something that has nothing to do with that makes your point immediately invalid
@@armaantoor6773 no it doesn't? A female can do parkour? I'm more qualified to say that than either of you two ☠️
Parkour in DL2 just feels way too out of gravity and those tiny lilttle camera adjustment dont do it for me. But overall DL2 its more fun because the world around is filled with things, places, objects, npc, quest. While Mirrors edge its just... empty.
I will disagree with you DL2 aint that far off with the gravity with newer updates
the "long and upper jumps" are yeah a bit obvious but overall dying light 2 has the best parkour in the gaming industiry so far
@@cherryphi5056 Nah mate is not the best. The best one yet is mirrors edge (2008).
first off never roll directly on your spine you want to angle the roll from your shoulder diagonal to your lower back if done wrong you could hurt yourself or worse
but whats her natty vertical? aiden's got the goated superserums
brother please tell me how tf did you get 99 military medkits the standard ones are hell to farm
Chapter 1 harper, had a bunch of tokens and you can also get some from opening pilgrim chests.
@@Flamez_OwO thanks
I love how the original ME and Catalyst looks but after playing DL2, i feel like DL2 feels better to play. One problem that i always had with most parkour games is that they don't convey the sense of running very well. They're always overly smooth to reduce motion sickness. MEC had this exact problem, it felt like Faith was a chicken with how steady her head was while running, rolling and so on. Thankfully DL2 has a slider to control the smoothness, and at 0 smoothness with max FOV, it truly feels like you're character is putting effort into running, jumping and so on. And that's not mentioning how much of a game changer being able to control your jump height is. A Mirror's Edge with DL2 controls would be fucking amazing.
at 11:00 how are you mainting your height after glide kicking? 🤔
Pressing attack and jump at the same time
we need a new mirror's edge with a better open world. catalyst's map was limiting, and the original was straight up linear.
“Both? Both. Both is good”
Dl2 feels like u have super abilities...like speed and bunny hop
I can't say for sure where parkour is better, in dying light 2 or in mirror's edge, but definitely, parkour in dl2 is better than dl1 imo
Well yeah
Mirror's edge just feel better
dying light 1 great but 2 let me feel like im flying
Dying Light 2s parkour is amazing
Bruh mirrors edge has e3 left hand jump 😂
Everyone is parkour god untill kyle crane joins 🗿
Dude how the heck did you get empowering yourself, I have over 300 hours and it never played in the open world once
i suggest reporting it to techland as that could be a bug
For as long as I've played DL2, Empowering Yourself only plays during parkour after completing the final mission. Doing NG+ will disable it until you complete the final mission again in that save.
Think of it as a little bonus for the endgame
can you do this kinda parkour with dl 1 and compare it to dl 2 🔥
Dl2 wins 100% its not even competition
That's like having a athlete compete against a couch potato , dl2 wins in every aspect
@@Ezdine_G8261 bro never played dl 1 💀
@@Ezdine_G8261 i play both dl 1 and dl 2 , but dl 1 is something else. A goat game that maybe we will never get again... Dl 2 is just shit, Parkour is only 1 reason i play it sometimes. But dl 1 is absolutely goat.
I did a dive roll at this height 1:16 plenty of times he somehow survived while i unalive
she
Honestly mirrors edge now looking like demo parkour for DL2
It does a bit
The way you show dl2 parkour is more like showing those speedrunner techniques parkouring lol , i was expecting to see a normal parkour to compare to mirror edge
Was just showing the way I play :P
@@Flamez_OwOyou should show the casual side to it like Aiden using monkey bars and such
You're crazy
you can kick off of walls?! 9:24
Yup
dl2 thegoat
Dl 1?? Dl2 you sure bro??
You certainly can see, where Dying Light2 got some of it´s ideas
ıts same dude
( CRANE LEFT THE ROOM )
To be fair dying light one's parkour is completely different than these 2, it just wouldn't feel right comparing the two because dying light one had its own unique parkour system.
@@guitarsandcars2586 oh but stills he's the first soldiers fought well
Crane doesn't stand a chance against these 2 games when it comes to parkour
@@guitarsandcars2586and we want that unique Parkour system in dl 3, not this shitty Parkour system from dl 2.
@@Snake_eyes0physics and Parkour is best in dl 1, it can't be better than this. Dl 2 is completely diff, personally i prefer dl 1 Parkour.
Imho mirror's edge way better polished by Devs in parkour, and MEC don't have coop bud have much better third/first person animations, besides we have clancy dl2 where we have coop but animations sucks. In mirror's edge u completely can save ur momentum and speed.
In MEC double jump(jump up from obstacles) looks and feels absolutely better. While in Dl2 Aiden just farts to jump higher.
And don't forget about effect, in Dl2 effects sucks. Blur while u sprinting sucks, we don't have blur while u fall from some height(what's really gave u important feeling)
Sound also not distort like it did even in first DL.
Aiden also grunts every time while u did far jump, double jump.
Okay, in both game we got grappling hook. In Dl2 it give u much ways to use, while in MEC u can use hook in some scripted areas to reach one building to another. But it's still polished way better. Because u don't feel like game slows u while u grappling. When DL 2 actually did. U can jump from top of the building, grapple with hook to street lamp, and in middle u get noticed like some force slows u speed, while u should be same speed(pendelum law). An in MEC when u grappling with hook it's works just like it's should.
Мне абсолютно не понравился паркур в dl2, он абсолютно деревянный и напоминает бесконечные раскачивания на качелях, может в игре и больше реализма чем в Mirror's Edge, однако как Главный герой набирает скорость и прыгает с такой траектории полета, будто у него ракетный ранец за спиной, ухудшает ситуацию в ноль. Вот неужели на моменте 6:45 человек в реальной жизни сможет также быстро набрать максимальную скорость бега? Или как в моменте 6:53 ускориться за счёт скольжения? Хотя это невозможно, ибо скорость должна стремительно теряться при трении! А наш супермен каким то образом с помощью скольжения набрал скорость, ПРЕВЫШАЮЩУЮ скорость бега до момента скольжения. Также меня 7:00 абсолютно взбесил момент полсекундной задержки во время приземления. Такое чувство, будто при приземлении он прилип к крыше и не мог сдвинуться. А про момент с батутом на 7:21 просто нет комментариев. Про 7:25 тоже вопросы: откуда набрал такую скорость при прыжке, и как он не сломал ноги при падении с такой высоты в двухэтажный дом. А с 8:01 можете наблюдать серию падений главного героя, у которого видать жвачки к ботинкам приклеены, поэтому он так любит постоянно прилипать на полсекунды к земле. Итак, идём дальше. Момент 8:45 - невозможно менять траекторию во время полета самостоятельно без взаимодействия со внешними силами. После раскачки наш уже всем известный супермен, решил развернуться в воздухе на 180 градусов, чтобы захватиться за второй турник. А момент 9:07 я вообще считаю самым смешным. Просто посмотрите, насколько кривая и резкая плавность анимации падения с желтой бочкой, просто умора. А про геймплей с крюком тоже особо нечего сказать - Spiderman вышел из чата.
Вообще можно безумно долго рассказывать про то, почему у главного героя не слышны тяжёлые вдохи и выдохи во время бега, а не во время вскарабкиваний и прочих движений, почему его движения и его техника перемещения очень похожа на технику перемещения из Gorilla Tag и так далее. Даже не пытайтесь защитить механику паркура в этой игре. Она безумно сильно уступает паркуру Mirror's Edge, Mirror's Edge Catalyst и Dying Light. Ну а те, кто хотят поспорить, я жду ваши аргументы в пользу нашего всемилюбимого супермена, будем разбираться.
Так главный герой накаченный в детстве зельями суперчеловек, в соло зачищающий целые базы вооруженных головорезов.
Да, паркур по этой причине имеет право быть не таким реалистичным"
Но ты дружок вспомни какой паркур был вначале, когда перков от силы пару штук. Разве он не был впооне реалистичным? Уже в процессе за десятки часов игры а то и сотни разблокируется такой паркур, как в видео. И то, нужно быть реально задротом и пк боярином чтобы делать тауие мувы.
Так что твои аргументы не очень уместны, ведь дл2 больше песочный веселый и динамичный паркур, а не симулятор.
P.S. про крюк вообще угарнул, посмотри как работает этот агрегат в первой части, вот это реально спайдер мен. А во второй части подобие крюка кошки с первой будет только на самом высоком уровне прокачки, что почти конец игры, если ты не зачищаешь всю локацию по аирдропам.
@@dmitry8676 Я готов опустить те моменты про его сверхсилу, так как плохо знал лор, однако я точно могу назвать паркур дерганным из-за микропауз в момент приземления, не знаю как вас, а меня это очень раздражает, Я не хочу терять скорость и всегда находиться в движении + силы гг позволяют, но такие моменты знатно портят ощущения
Спасибо вам за корректировку моего верхнего комментария, в след разы буду лучше следить за сюжетом игры, прежде чем что-то писать
I think here write that parkour in DL2 is better only those who have not played MES. I don't understand how a game where every movement feels jagged can win on parkour. I realize that by lore Aiden is superhuman, but it doesn't feel like fun within parkour. And what's the point of parkour in a game where you're given a glider that you can literally fly endlessly?
It's also terrible to see the controls in the air so obviously done. Maybe give you a jetpack right away?
And it's funny how some people write about comparing parkour in real life and parkour in games. The point of the game is to convey sensations, not to show realism. There is nothing fun in realism, so games will always be different.
"fly endlessly" My respected Sir/Madame/Rainbow, you have clearly not played DL2 Or gotten to the paraglider part of the game. You can NOT fly endlessly with the paraglider. You have a certain stamina bar to do so. Not possible to fly endlessly with a maxed-out paraglider or max legend level.
@@AlliamWafton1987 Are you sure you've played DL2?)
Clearly, it's not literally “fly endlessly”. Flying becomes very long or almost infinite with a huge amount of stamina, in which case survivor fans and wind allows you not to waste it at all, as it restores instantly. I flew into the TV tower (forgot the name, maybe HTV?) from the ground only using a glider. So don't take everything literally.
even gmod beatrun is better than dl2's clunky arcadey ass parkour system
Lol. L take
Your going off this junkies gamplay, dl2's parkour is whatever you make it to be

mirrors edge is more realistic and smooth but in dl2 u feel like playing a spiderman-like fps game
I swear everyone keeps comparing dying light to Spider-Man because of the rope swing, kind of annoying. Add mirror's edge is definitely not more realistic, no woman could ever parkour like she could in that game, plus that game is really boring, dying light 2 has a lot of things you can do with that parkour.
