![]() Even the weapon crafting – my favorite part of Dead Island – is severely limited, as White only finds a few blueprints lying around (though I will admit, the Stun Gun blueprint is very powerful). Instead, the DLC follows a linear path through the town of Moresby and the prison. A few of the RPG elements, such as leveling up and the skill tree, are gone, and the open world of Banoi is no longer accessible.

While he is guilty of some of the actions that made us angry with him before, we learn that White was not acting alone, but was instead being pushed down this path by another. ![]() He spends the rest of his life (literally) looking for a way to cure her. ![]() He finds her in a condition that no man would EVER want to find his beloved.
