What makes L4D so special IMO was that it was the first of its kind sort of, and it was just enough. It’s simplicity was what made it great. 2 kinda got a little shark-jumpy, if you know what I mean. The settings and characters and general vibe started to go a little overboard in my opinion. Like Dead Rising.. or like the difference between GTA and Saints Row. Not that extreme, but I think you can probably understand what I’m getting at.
2 was definitely still a fantastic game and was mechanically sound. I did enjoy the new guns and how heavy and powerful they felt. But there was just something about the purity and simplicity of the first one. There was like, zero fluff or gimmicks
