I was a developer on Days Gone (environment art team) and it's always a funny feeling when your own/team's critiques line up exactly with what players say. it's very much a "thats what I'VE been saying for years!!!!!" feeling hahaha. In spite of the flaws I'm really proud of what a relatively small studio was capable of, especially for its first console game/new IP in literal decades. I'm thankful for the love it's gotten though and the fanbase has been nothing but enthusiastic & kind 💖

First of all, THANK YOU for an amazing game and experience. Days Gone is the most underrated game I've ever played. The hardest thing for me to accept after beating the game is realizing there won't be a sequel. 👎👎👎 I can only imagine the kind of evolution a second game could achieve! Good luck with whatever your next project is!

I played days gone a couple years after it came out and it really surprised me. I wasn't expecting a grim post apocalyptic setting to hold a love story at its core. Kind of like how Deacons heart warms up throughout the game. He's a rough gruff protagonist that lost almost everything, but on his journey he finds hope once again. The game play was also really great and by the end of my days gone journey I got the platinum trophy for it. It's a great game that if given the chance can suck you right into its world till the days are all gone.

I was a Days Gone lover from the get-go. Deek’s rough personality set him apart from most over-the-top flamboyant heroes and the hunt for his wife always kept me involved. I loved the way the menu and skill tree was laid out and the “freakers” nomenclature again set it apart from other recent zombie games. Add in the fact that your riding a motorcycle in the open world, I dunno why it’s gotten such crap. I’m in the camp of needing that sequel.

I think Kingdom Come: Deliverance could be an honorable mention.

My only gripe beyond that was hitting a loading screen literally every time you need to use the map.

But before I wore it out it was one of my favorite games I’ve played!

Dead Rising is still one of my all time favorites and has been from the start of the game. I think the time limit is genius. Different stuff happens at different times of the day, so you can't uncover everything in one playthrough anyways and you take the character stats with you to the next ones. In the end replaying it for the fourth time is still a lot of fun imo.

The story is great, the unique take on the virus is cool, the world is huge, the boss fights (hordes) are awesome, and the atmosphere/world feels legit, the survival difficulties are challenging but fair, and the challenge mode is actually pretty fun and rewarding. Only real complaint ive had is weapon and upgrade balancing. Would have been cool if they did something with the teir system so old weapons could be made viable.

Sony really needs to greenlight Days Gone 2. I recently played the first game and it was an incredible experience. It has a slow start and doesn't chase after the player like some other games do. Its prologue ends after you meet Obrian and arrive at Lost-Lake, and then the real excitement begins. Unlike other games that can become tedious after a while, the more you play Days Gone, the more enjoyable it becomes. What sets this game apart is how accurately it portrays a motorcycle's behavior. I own a 2016 BMW scrambler, and I can attest that the bike in the game feels exactly like the real thing, especially off-road. The game perfectly conveys the sense of gravity, and the character's gear shifts and clutch work feel natural. The fuel economy system is also fascinating - on descents, you have to ease up on the gas to reduce consumption. In my opinion, Days Gone features the best off-road motorcycle physics in any video game. I actually platinumed the game, but sometimes I still play it just to ride the bike with some great background guitar music, beautiful landscapes, and hordes of enemies. The game was a commercial success, and players loved it. Unfortunately, the cancellation of the sequel due to some negative reviews felt like a tragedy to me. Days Gone is more than just a game - it's a beloved experience. If you were like me and didn't buy the game because of some silly reviews, then you better go run buy it

The way all the NPC characters are actually always existing on the station, and the staff locator helps you track them all down (with a trophy for doing so), opening up side quests/stories, the immaculate upgrade system with powers and skills, a survival horror aspect with the varied and terrifying alien creatures and unique ways to take them down.. all with the heart of an Arkane Immersive SIM at the core, there wasn't a moment in my playthrough where I was bored, there is no other game like it

I just want to say: KENSHI. At first, diving into the game was a bit of a struggle, the learning curve felt steep, and I was pretty lost in the vast open world, however this eventually gave way to a sense of mastery and discovery. Learning the mechanics, and embracing the hard challenges turned the experience around. The depth of the world, the freedom to forge your own path, and the unpredictability of every adventure made it an absolute great game.

I thought it was pretty incredible how in-depth they made "controlling" Trico. You basically have 2 sets of commands, one positive the other negative. You're basically training Trico throughout the game. The calmer you are and the more patience that you show, Trico starts to respond quicker to your progress and requests. You're basically training a giant flying dog. Like Agro in Shadow Of The Colossus, the more aggressive you were with him, the harder he was to handle. Also, once it's revealed what is actually in those barrels that you feed him, goddamn does that game get dark quick.

“Deacon St. John” in “Days Gone” is a homage to John Deacon, the bassist of Queen. The developers must be big fans of Queen because they even named trophies in the game “Don’t stop me now”, “I’m out of control”, “There’s no stopping me”, and “Mr. Fahrenheit”. All lyrics to the Queen song “Don’t Stop Me Now”.

Even being re-evaluated & getting better reviews & more respect, its still underrated. The horde fights are beyond fun & any game that can adapt the feature I'll be instantly interested. & i can only imagine how amazing the horde fights on a sequel would be.

@@whill0216i thought it was a great game. but the motorcycles only thing was probably my least favorite part. they could have added so much more detail to the open world with different vehicles, jumpstarting vehicles, finding a 12v battery to get them to start, etc. so many possibilities to add to the complexity and options that were missed out on. as others have said, i would like to see a sequel with much more detail and options throughout the open world. id like to see more weapons options and customization also. it really could have been the rdr or gta of zombies. the actual zombies and hordes were great. and i thought the weapons and crafting were good i just would have liked more. like the amount of detail in dayz. more of a survivalist emphasis. but still action packed and getting chased by hordes/fighting off marauders.

The other slower start up to a game I saw was Neverwinter Night 2 but at this game you were done with prologue gargabe at 4 hours. In Days Gone I played for 15 hours and it was still a boring crap of a game with nothing good. Characters were annoying at least Deacon is fucker who never shuts up. That got annoying like in 1 hour. Riding from camp to camp doing the same fucking mission of clearing camps or finding people, if thats not enough there is more trailing missions in Days Gone than in Assassins Creed Black Flag.

The story was amazing too, writing and the arch of the characters was way above the average level of quality and really resonated with me in many key moments.

That with dragon's Dogma is actually pretty true and I think about maybe giving it another shot.

Also one of the escort missions drove me crazy. Maybe another mistake of mine was to start it off on hard difficulty because I always do that as I'm used to it and who the hell plays on easy anyways lol I like the Monster Hunter like mechanics like severing tails or heads though.

Graham- the enjoyment comes from learning from your mistakes and overcoming fights that are heavily in the opponents favor. Elden Ring is the easiest of them all bc you can just go wherever and level up then come back. However in other Souls games you needed to figure out your opponent bc farming for levels took a long long time w no open world. Meaning you could only go back to weaker areas to farm. Lower xp. The fun comes from beating enemies that are far scarier than the player. A real challenge.

I'd found a place in a building I couldn't reach, so I checked the roof, and there was a hole right above that part. I thought, IDK, it looks like a ways down but I can't imagine how else you're supposed to reach it than to come from the roof. So I took the plunge. Annnnd it killed me. HAHA, very fucking funny, fromsuck. All it taught me is that the idiots who say "HaRd BuT fAiR" are fanboys with the IQ of a houseplant because there's a ton of bullshit mechanics in these games. (Also, in before said idiot fanboys reply "GiT gUd".

I'm surprised Gothic hasn't been mentioned, at least as far down as I dug into the comments. You start off as an absolute nobody, getting killed/beaten up left and right and eventually you learn what (very few) enemies you can beat. After actually learning how to fight somewhat, you are still weak compared to the rest of the world, but you can travel a little more and carry out more quests. All in all, your rise to power feels truly earned. Piranha Bytes has been using this formula in their games, with varying degrees of success. It took me two tries to get into Gothic, but after I did, I ended up playing through PB's entire library.

I would go so far as to say the horde mechanics in days gone are the best of any zombie game of that generation. They hit a perfect balance where 1 freak is no big deal at 10 you need need to be careful 15+ requires preparation, a plan, and the ability to throw the plan out the window and adapt when it enevitably goes to shit. The comtrast between having to hunker down in cover and pick your shots when you deal with human enemies and having to think fast and comstantly spray rounds at freak hordes is super well done. I really like that every activity you complete gives a little cutscene that helps wrap up part of the story. I really wish people had given that game a chance because I think a sequel building on what they made and paced properly could be awesome.

Yes but we cant deny those early quests like training grounds and hydra head escort. The ox moves so slowly most didnt know you could kick and heal it. This is my all time fav game but even I will admit to rushing through to Gran Soren asap every neew playthrough I do.

Days Gone starts so painfully slow it sucks. There's nothing going on, your characters is underpowered af. But it gets so much more fun as the story progresses. Once you get to Wizard Island it feels like a totally different game and everything comes together so well. 11/10.

For me, it was RDR2, because starting a game with a long snow chapter with almost no content other than the story itself made it very boring, but as soon as I reached chapter 2, I was hooked. I played multiple playthroughs and had so much fun

I would also add Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord. Game does not hold your hand and teach you some very important aspects of the game, which you must find out by yourself. At first it looks complicated and hard. But as soon as your army starts to grow and you start taking part on sieges and huge wars, it just becomes extremely enjoyable. Really, I remember being so amazed when I participated in my first big war

I think they made that game expecting 90% of the player base would be crusty old hands at M&B Warband and its mods, and would therefore already know what to do. I hope they someday complete the game to where the campaign mode is better than Warband's, which at the moment seems far off.

The first time I played KOTOR, I had never played a turn-based rpg and I had no idea what was going on. I had the Blockbuster Game Pass and returned the game after an hour. About a month later a friend of mine told me what a great game it was, I disagreed, and he explained to me how it worked. Turned out to be incredible, as some of you probably know, and I'm so glad I went back to it.

Final Fantasy XIII. At first you're slogging through the ruins with a party who all seem to hate each other, and the combat isn't much more than hitting the Auto Battle button. Then, slowly, slowly, the party start to work together, the world gets prettier, and the Paradigm combat system (think of a stance system in which all the combinations of attack, defend, buff, debuff and heal are for you to decide) reveals itself.

One thing I did really like about days gone is how the exploration in the zombie apocalypse worked to a level no other game I’ve seen. You can literally ride around to anywhere around the map and pretty much go into and loot every building you see and there’s different ways for different buildings if it’s locked or through the roof or window made it feel like it would actually be. I enjoyed that aspect alot combined with the random survivor encounters zombie encounters etc that was cool.

The Long Dark could probably have a place on this list too. Especially first time players who are struggling with how to get the game to do what they want. Like they know they need to collect snow to boil water, but clicking on snow does nothing. The game counterintuitively requires you to click on a burning campfire to collect snow.

Funny that you mention Prey. I commented on your video a couple days ago, explaining that I didn't like it when I tried it, and I had to start over the next day with a an open mind and essentially let the game show me what it is, rather that approach it with certain expectations and then not like it for not being what I expected it to be. Ultimately, I decided that Prey is one of the few games I've played that I will call a masterpiece. It's one of those games that gives me some kind of a rush whenever I think about it. p.s. Still watching the video and just heard the "less scary than Dead Space" comment. Bruh, Prey is scary af.

And then I fell all of 8 feet and died during the tutorial, and I didn't turn it on again for 3 years. If it's not my favorite game now, it's top 3 at worst.

Both Prey and Days Gone are two of my favorite games of all time. I went into Days Gone without any expectations and don't recall the beginning being specifically slow. I love that at first that when you see a horde you cower and hide but you later gain the skills and tools to deal with them. I know that I didn't think Prey was slow from the beginning. Shortly before it came out I played the demo which was pretty much just the beginning of the game. I went through this and loved it. Couldn't wait for the full release. I was not disappointed.

The first two I thought about when I saw this title was the KotOR series and Nier Automata. KotOR can be such a slow start before the gameplay and story gets interesting, especially the second one. Nier Automata’s opening level boss was so difficult for me, and when it makes you start the whole game over when you die, I was VERY close to giving up on it. Super glad I didn’t!
@Theinen84

Just curious if you played the KotORs on release or in later years? On release they were awesome and huge milestones in pacing and scope. On repeat plays or in more recent years, it can seem slow starting because you've already done it before, or you played those inspired by it and did it better.
