Poll Dying Light vs Arkham Knight - which should I play next? (46 votes)

Dying Light 76%
Arkham Knight 24%

So I'm wrapping up my MGSV TPP platinum, and I'm trying to figure out what to play next (leading up to Fallout). The XCOM delay has left a bit of a hole in my schedule.

I'm assuming that once Fallout comes out, I will be playing that and then Just Cause for the rest of the year. So I'll probably only have time to play one of these two titles before year end. Which should it be and why?

I can get either for just under $40 so pricing doesn't matter. Also, I'll be playing on ps4 so the PC port Arkham shitshow isn't a concern.

Dying Light. Practically everything about Arkham Knight except for the graphics is a letdown.

Since Arkham Knight is boring and 100% skippable I'd say go for Dying Light instead. It fits the month anyway.

Also there's SOMA if you want a good thriller game.

I 100%'d Arkhan Knight (on PC too) but only played enough of Dying Light to complete the story. So I'd go with the Bat.

Dying Light is so much better than Arkham Knight.

Dying Light is one of the best games this year! Probably one of the best zombie games out there too.

I'd say dying light. I haven't played either, but from initial impressions Dying light seems like more of a unique experience than arkham knight. Both seem like solid choices anyway. I have a bit of a sour taste left in my mouth from having to refund my pc Arkham Knight, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Edit: Do keep in mind that if you get Dying Light on PC I can almost guarantee that there will be some kind of fall/halloween steam sale and Dying Light should be on there for some kind of discount.

Dying light, all day every day. One of the best games recently IMO, loved that game so much. It helped to have little to no hope for it to be good, but nonetheless, such a great game.

Both are good games... Dying Light is more original (even tho zombies) and fun imo.

Dying Light isn't tired out like Batman. Easy choice.

Pretty crazy. I didn't expect this to be so one-sided based on the reviews. Looks like I'll have to pick up Dying Light. I'd honestly like to get to both but who knows. That may be too much open world. I plan on playing some other smaller games as well but you'v gotta spread these huge sandbox game out.
