It’s been a notoriously long wait for Dead Island 2, as it took eight years and three different developers to get this far, but now again it will probably be released February 3, 2023. Even though it was so gory that it has had to be censored, censored, but for the strength of its stomach already. This was just a few minutes later, and was very impressive. If you switched off during this time, we’d suggest watching the trailer below. The final reveal did not exactly seem as big as usual, but thats exactly how things were in 2022 and at least Dead Island 2 did look pretty good, although there was a terrible movie film that attempted pretending otherwise. If you managed to go through the two hours of Gamescom Opening Night Live, you’ll notice that as far as there were many new games, some of them were for indie and AA titles. The first game was Dead Island, so the initial trailer seemed to be quite impressive. There are battles that are worth fighting a minor and entirely accidental incident like this one, while certainly bad for business, is nonetheless not one of them.Dead Island was better late than ever (pic: Deep Silver). Just keep all of this in mind before you try climbing up onto a high horse in the name of protecting feminists everywhere. I don’t think Techland necessarily deserves to be condemned here, however, and I think most of the rational reporting around this incident - Tracey’s included - makes that same point pretty clear. I think it’s lousy that this got out into the wild and I think that the guilty programmer is probably feeling like a sizable ass right now. There’s a certain feeling of safety in offices populated by a tight-knit group of people, an idea that what happens there, stays there (within reason, naturally). If you’ve ever worked in an office, then you know that it can often be a haven for inappropriate talk of all kinds. Let’s try to keep things in perspective though. The person responsible for this unfortunate situation will face professional consequences for violating the professional standards and beliefs Techland stands for.”īoth Tracey’s post and Techland’s statement are correct responses. “We deeply regret that fact and we apologize to all our customers or anyone who might have been offended by that inappropriate expression. In the end that code was made a part of the product and signed with our company name. This is merely an explanation but by no means an excuse. What is left is a part of an obscure debug function. The skill naturaly has a completely different in-game name and the script reference was also changed. The line in question was something a programmer considered a private joke. This has been inexcusably overlooked and released with the game. “It has come to our attention that one of Dead Island’s leftover debug files contains a highly inappropriate internal script name of one of the character skills. The response Tracey received is, to me, the most informative: Techland responded swiftly with statements to a number of other outlets. But it’s there, it’s in the public now, and it needs to be addressed. This is a horribly embarrassing turn of events for Techland, considering that what we’re ultimately talking about is a stray bit of code that should never have left the studio in the first place. Noted games reporter Tracey John quickly fired back with a response that reasons through the responses of some Steam commenters who don’t see an issue and try to argue why. You can probably see where this is going. This time, however, they found Internet hysteria gold: an unused unlockable skill for the playable character Purna called “Feminist Whore.” PC gamers immediately tore into the unfinished code to look for whatever it is PC-folk look for when they do such things. ![]() While that alone is news enough, things start to get a little weird here. The open-world first-person zombie brawler arrived along with the rest of the games this week, only there was a slight problem with the Steam release on PCs: somehow, an unfinished dev build of the game slipped into the mix instead of the final release, essentially putting a for-internal-eyes-only collection of code out into the wilds. Once upon a time (earlier this week), Deep Silver released a game from Techland called Dead Island.
