There’s tons of content to enjoy in the game, whether it be alone or with friends. These memes shine a light on some of the best moments that stand out in Dead Island.
10 It’s Been 84 Years
Starting off on a sadder note, where is Dead Island 2? The trailer released in 2014 and got fans of the original so excited, yet year after year that excitement has been diminishing into hopelessness as it seems as if it will never release. At this point, it’s safe to assume that fans would be happy with just the demo that was showcased not long after the reveal trailer for the game. A demo would be better than never getting to experience what this game could have been.
9 Priorities
From this meme, you may be thinking he’s referring to gas in a car or something similar, as juice could be a slang term for such. Well, you’d be wrong because he’s literally talking about juice boxes. One of the very first missions of Dead Island is taking a truck and obtaining containers full of small juice boxes. We’re in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, struggling to survive, and he’s worried about how many juice boxes he has left. At least he has his priorities straight.
8 Fun While It Lasted
Not long after going on vacation to the beautiful island of Banoi does all hell break loose. The characters start the game out at a concert when the outbreak begins, leaving not many people standing afterward. Fighting with a crowd of obnoxious fans sounds more appealing than fighting off waves of flesh-eating zombies. Waking up to a bungalow full of strangers and an island filled with the undead, you’d start to think maybe taking that vacation wasn’t such a good idea after all, even if the tickets were on sale.
7 No Thanks
Don’t let the beauty of Banoi deceive you, as there’s plenty of horrors that await you upon starting a new game. What was once a relaxing pool of cool water surrounded by beach chairs and umbrellas is now a pool full of blood and guts surrounded by severed body parts and dead bodies.
While the visuals of the game may be stunning at times, there’s simply no denying how horrific some of the locations can be when you see how much blood was splattered all over the place. This is especially true in darker areas as you’re never quite sure if that was a zombie you heard or the sound of you whimpering.
6 It’s Gonna Cost Ya
It’s quite funny how the NPCs never react to the stuff you do in Dead Island. You can literally take all of their belongings right in from of them and they will just stare at you with their lifeless eyes and ask if you’re busy so you can help them. Yes, Hank, we will help you with the side quest you have for us. But first, let us ransack your place in search of weapons and supplies because you clearly don’t need them.
5 Where Does It Go?
Seriously, where does your money go that you spend on repairing and upgrading your weapons? No wonder we have to steal everyone else’s belongings, it costs an arm and a leg just to get a simple upgrade. They leave us with no choice because obviously a wooden paddle isn’t going to fend off hordes of the undead. It’s no wonder why modders hackers found their way into the game and gave people unlimited ammo and unbreakable weapons. Maybe then you might actually stand a chance at surviving.
4 Makes Sense To Me
The world of Dead Island is vast and varied; new locations are discovered at every turn. These range from police stations to grocery stores. However, whatever you see on the shelf is not obtainable unless it’s an energy drink or an apple.
These items increase your health significantly and are very beneficial in battle, but it often makes you wonder why downing an energy drink or eating an apple makes you invincible to an extent. An apple a day keeps the flesh-eating zombies at bay.
3 Good God Almighty
Regular zombies in Dead Island are the least of your worries. You should really be more cautious of the rams, as shown above. As a human wrecking ball, the ram gets his name from being just that. A monstrous powerhouse that comes running at you with brute force and instantly knocks you down with ease. Best thing to do in this situation is run for dear life. Don’t even get us started on the butchers, because those freaks of nature with spiked bones for hands are pure nightmare fuel and you can’t outrun those.
2 Nice Shot
1 Nice Knowing Ya
Speaking of friends, those are nonexistent when you become entrapped by a swarm of hungry zombies. It’s every man for himself when the pressure is on. If they have do die in order for you to survive, that may just be a risk you have to take. Hopefully, they can forgive you when it’s all said and done. You can’t be blamed for being too afraid of unforgiving enemies of Dead Island. Sorry friend, we don’t wanna die. It sure was nice knowing you, though.
