Answering Days Gone's Lingering Questions

[@HEARD201]

its so refreshing to see honesty in developers. They seem super straight forward.

[@DopeKing]

What makes me want to buy the game is the game developers transparency and honesty more than the game itself. But still, the game alone would hype me enough to buy after seeing some gameplays.

[@TAmatt25]

I also wanna see how far along they came since Syphon filter. Which was a favorite when I was younger. I mean from crash bandicoot to uncharted and last of us.

[@thenakknows1660]

These devs are clearly very passionate about their game. It is good to see the human element in any product these days. Looking forward to playing this

[@redlae3423]

Thank you for the coverage. I'm sold on this game based on the passion and transparency of the developer alone. Looking forward to Days Gone!

[@BurnoutsAndBourbon]

Redlae This

[@wonderwander5890]

I think between the story, motorcycle, Bend, the actors, and atmosphere.. I'll dig it

[@Pre-Millennial]

The hype is real dudes! And who’s ready for Spider-Man??? Yes I’m aware Detroit came out today, looking forward to playing it. Gosh Sony exclusives are the stuff!

[@jriibzmodus4792]

Super hyped for Spiderman

[@sinapirmeh3940]

Been hyped for Spider-Man since E3 2016

[@Quazzi]

I'm never not hyped for something to do with Spiderman even if it isn't announced yet.

[@farmsalot1233]

I went to buy Detroit become human and it's sold out at my Walmart. Now I gotta wait.

[@Pre-Millennial]

Anthony Tosh personally I’ll be buying digital. No lines to wait in :). Decent internet is required for a reasonable download time though

[@d-pad5291]

Just finished GoW couple weeks ago. Absolutely amazing. Started playing Detroit today. So damn good aswell. At the end of the summer Spider Man that'll be insane. After that Days Gone, Last Of Us 2, Ghost of Tshushima and Death Stranding. Holy shit Sony stop murdering our wallets 😂😂

[@isandlaurius]

Sony please don't stop murdering our wallets. I want more!

[@mugen1philley]

Metro Exodus

[@percules333]

D-Pad I’m broke af but fuck it

[@rudym415]

Real

[@joeking88]

Whoever decided to set this whole press event is a genius in my opinion as my first impression of the game was that is looked interesting, then I saw the 2nd trailer which lowered my expectations more but this video series has completely flipped my opinions and I am looking forward to this.

[@nathanaelink]

I feel like the last 5 minutes of hearing their thoughts was the most encouraging thing from the whole interview!

[@BurnoutsAndBourbon]

These guys seem super genuine and while I wasn’t super impressed with the game when just coming off of GoW; I now want to give this game a chance because of the people that make up the studio there seemingly being super cool 😎

[@point-bl4nk]

aka marketing

[@BurnoutsAndBourbon]

kiIl-chan Sure, if you wanna categorize a group of individuals demeanor as “marketing” then fine; then I would say I’ll consider giving this game a chance because of their better “marketing” than I would EA walking back out on stage and telling me how awesome the new Star Wars Battlefront 2 expansions are going to be.

[@point-bl4nk]

still marketing. and shallow gameplay.

[@murathansimsek5578]

" Well they're not going to collage " looooooool

[@bloobat]

Murathan Şimşek 20 mins in haha

[@In-decay]

College* guess you didn't either. lol. I kid

[@murathansimsek5578]

In Decay hahaha thanks I'm actually a computer engineering student lol but English is my second language

[@marknoble7005]

They’re such great guys, I hope the game does well

[@thegam3ingfam697]

I Really Want To Play Days Gone I Pre-Ordered It i. Just Can't Wait

[@alejandrohernandez3767]

damn I feel bad for you I preordered yesterday and im dying to play lol youve been patient 10 months

[@franciscadigan3876]

I think so many people are treating this game unfairly. Sony wants to focus on other titles this E3 and they have every reason to, so Bend keeping the ball rolling with this early footage is a good thing. I find these guys to be a really good bunch and my inital reservations of there being only one writer are now mostly laid to rest. This will be a good single player game and with this team, I'm positive I will enjoy the story. However I don't like the current HUD and I think it has to become more immersive and subtle to work for this emotional game.

[@account4345]

Francis Cadigan Yeah, the HUD is a bit weird, the weapon wheel looks perfect but I think the health and stamina are just placeholders

[@franciscadigan3876]

right but objective markers, objective descriptions and those kinds of things look really weird to me. Also I hope to be able to turn off the minimap.

[@account4345]

Francis Cadigan Yeah, guess we’ll find out sometime soon.

[@CharlieSheensTigerBlood]

There was a rumor that there is an option to turn that off

[@stackbundles2663]

Take as long as you want, just make sure it's a very good game with high replay value 🙌

[@Pan8oy]

Stack Bundles I think the same xD

[@theferalwolf7]

(Zimbabwe fan here!)Bend guys thank you, I'm saved up for this game already. Its going to worth the 48hour bus ride to South Africa to purchase it.

[@blunt3777]

Just a shout out absolutely looking forward to your game just polish it up real good and make a collector's edition. PS. Thanks for the footage Informer.

[@delukze]

20:39 was my question. Thanks for asking!

[@gamingkiller9133]

Lets go im super hyped for this game👍

[@taylorhead9842]

13:26 This sounds great about the berserker bolts! Having different types of bolts to craft sounds awesome.

[@Kratos4ever94]

Thanks for anwering my question. It was the first i ever asked for your cover story special.

[@decepticonavidgamer882]

I bought a PlayStation when I saw this at E3 I can’t wait for days gone and to play all of the storylines

[@indiogamingxp]

9:30 that’s changed since for anyone watching in 2019 recent trailers and devs confirm fast travel and sleeping to skip through the night or day.

[@nicholassnyder2241]

These fellas are making a great, day 1, game, it's going to blow up on release for sure, gamers love this stuff.

[@JoshKeatonFan]

And now after watching this I have to pre-order this game from GameStop! Damn you GameInformer making me so excited for upcoming games to come out! Love your magazine which I got because I'm a GameStop PowerUp Rewards member and I get the digital edition in my inbox every month! Love the reviews, previews and feature stories! Looking forward to next week's episode of The Game Informer Show!

[@restinpeacegabethedog1529]

I love these kinds of things! Makes me even more excited for the game

[@stepkickking9868]

I’m still on the fence about this game. I’ve not seen anything that makes me dislike the game... But I haven’t seen anything that makes me want to pre-order/buy it either. I’m not hating on the game, but the developers keep saying “you’ve never played a zombie game like this” and “this is a new and innovative game.” I’ve not seen anything new OR innovative. I guess I’ll just sit back and see how this one plays out.

[@ahmarcamacho8404]

SAMCRO JT Fan i agree

[@sinapirmeh3940]

Science Fiction But he’s right though

[@alsage9992]

SAMCRO JT Fan I think it's more like last of us with bikes.

[@shivanshsharma6163]

Name ONE game which is IDENTICAL IN EVERY WAY to this game just ONE??

[@shivanshsharma6163]

Science Fiction I agree 100%

[@cptclown2110]

Great vid!! You keel killing Ben, I have just been eating up this cover story coverage. Really stoked for this game now

[@dickjones101]

Cant wait for Days Gone to come out! I already pre ordered the game!!!

[@boardvision11]

A studio with beer on tap. That alone makes me want to support these cool devs.

[@J.F.331]

It is August 2021 and I still love this game so much. I am currently on my 4th or 5th playthrough. Ive lost track but still one of my favorite games.

[@supahsamurai1]

I can't wait for Days Gone to come out! It looks so fun and I'm excited to see what it's story is.

[@andresperez5430]

The more I listen to the developers the more I am really liking what they are all about. I beat the game and it was awesome, platinum trophy here I come!

[@AnandSingh-ve5wk]

This is Radio Free Oregon " Days Gone Is Masterpiece"

[@ortizlzitro]

Ben Hanson did an incredible job! Thank you bro!

[@yozetty]

Michael Ortiz Thank yoooou!

[@combojohn7953]

Days Gone will be a huge suprise! It will be a masterpiece!

[@JustJnxtr]

Not that I know there's emotional connection/personal connection for deacon with his clothes makes me want changing clothes in the game less as there's a reason

[@PhyuckYiu2]

I think it should be possible to change everything but his vest bc he’s still representing his club.

[@axiiigni4329]

The soundtrack is gonna be so good O_O

[@Quazzi]

One writer also wrote The Lord of the Rings.

[@kanyekubrick5391]

Quazzi which movie?

[@Bloodhurl67]

No way.

[@aamrakamran7275]

The animation and gameplay will be smoothed out by launch. I have faith in bend studio.

[@LooneyDaGod57]

U can’t lie it’s sound like a gd game I always was told don’t knock it to u try it so I gotta buy it

[@ericnick4498]

Syko Looney Ha that rhymes.

[@In-decay]

These are probably 3 of the coolest developers to ever exist

[@johnbuchheister9142]

This is my 2nd most anticipated game. Lookin' good!

[@ameemarshad531]

My Love Days Gone game can't wait

[@umarbogatyrev3735]

GOOD!

[@DeborahChangMD]

Am I the only one who loves the music for this game? Like the music from the I remember trailer. Love it. Plus I’m super hyped for this game in general.

[@vealchop2490]

funny to see how they went back on the "sleep through the night" feedback. I think it makes the game better that you can decide to sleep and skip the night and/or inclement weather when you see fit.

[@Riceordie]

These guys look like fun people!

[@lukasek7777777777]

I really like these developers! Hopefully the game will be good!

[@SingingSimplified]

Nice bunch of dudes. I wish them luck with the game! Looks damn cool!

[@bapperbart7773]

You guys are the bomb!

[@WadeDMcGinnis]

I know I am going to try Days Gone but I can't shake this feeling that if this game came out three or four years ago, it would have been great. Now, feels like they are late to the party.

[@rizvi8653]

Can’t wait this rdr 2 and this game

[@beefypanda88]

I like the xp thing cuz it shows you that the enemy got killed, especially if you lay traps or throw bombs or something

[@Bloodhurl67]

kidminja44 Eh..

[@milk-el8vq]

Howya Doin then turn it off shut the fuck up

[@Bloodhurl67]

killer duck Oooo looks like there's an angry 10 year old here.

[@Bloodhurl67]

killer duck Awww it's so cute seeing you lose your temper.

[@Bloodhurl67]

killer duck So adorable seeing you checking out my channel to try and find ways to offend me.

[@MT-tu8dt]

Definitely getting Days Gone and by the looks of it in this interview. A remastered Uncharted Golden Abyss for PS4 will happen. Definitely want to play that as well.

[@gameoverhd5849]

Can't wait to play

[@brucedoyle4055]

Alright, ALRIGHT!.. You get my Money in exchamge for your Awsome Game, jeez... If you keep interviewing those honest and likeable developers i have to give them my Cash personally...

[@bapperbart7773]

Early 2019? Fuck yes bro.

[@TheMsjohn99]

I hope they have an amazing soundtrack. The trailer music was awesome. Hope they carry that same level forward.

[@caspercaspian]

Two things I'd like to see fixed right off the bat is the animation for the knife, it kinda just appears and disappears from Deacon's hand rather than an actual sheathing animation, and I would prefer a hit marker rather than an XP counter. It should at least be toggled option. Not as big of a deal, but I'd like to see iron sights on the guns cause I doubt Deacon can perfectly barrel sight every weapon he has.

[@braydengraymx4219]

Cant wait for this game

[@nicholassnyder2241]

Sounds like it's confirmed Days Gone has an incredible narrative

[@bklyn023]

I love the xp thing pop up maybe not in the middle of the screen but I like the idea

[@MrUnpredicatable21]

That college joke was fucking really smart lol. Made me crack a cackle. haha

[@umarbogatyrev3735]

Very Cool

[@ccolton9]

2023 and im hooked on this game

[@viniciuscoxoba3842]

The open world they is a concentrated area but is hard to move like TWD with danger in every corner or the distances betwen safe places are the real deal, like “the next safe house ir 20 miles away I dont have gas for this”

[@jaymosisjones]

Might as well be called Day One cause that's when I'm gonna have to pick it up!!

[@gunslingerplays]

Regarding the XP popping up, another solution may be a subtle change in the gamma around the screen, it would provide visual feedback for when an ennemi is killed. Max Payne 3 and GTAV had that and you get used to it really quick.

[@spuddy98]

From what I've seen and heard of this game, I am content with what it has to offer and this is just the first couple of hours of game play, it's a must buy for me. All it needs now is polish, if they can fix that choppy frame rate and fix a few of the animations then this game is going to be awesome.

[@weebey3668]

That’s all I need is a good storymode game

[@Jose1785]

I just finished it a couple of days ago (Yeah I know a bit late) but I must say I want more of this!! I hope they are thinking about the sequel!!

[@gunzlingerbil]

The guy on the left looks like he would try to steal eggs from jurassic Park

[@maliikbaptiste9709]

Think I gonna pre-order this game yes 👍🔥👍

[@JamesGowan]

I would LOVE to be able to replay missions

[@Freakyjohnsson1]

The Xp thing feels like a it got a pretty simple solution. Make it optional, and also make another option so if you kill something give us feedbank in another way than xp. For example i think its overwatch that does the red hitmarker or something like that when you kill someone (or maybe its when you hit a headshot) and i think that is a very non intrusive way to give feedback on a kill.

[@NOTW116]

It's going to be so hard to wait for this game!

[@oleson3413]

It’s took 6 years to make you know it’s gonna be great 🔥

[@Pan8oy]

30 hour game! Holy shit! I already want to play this game!

[@twistedone5683]

Yo I can't wait this games gonna be so fun

[@robotcapital4774]

23:52 I thought there wasn't any loading?

[@Bloodhurl67]

hyhhyhth hfggfgg Well looks like he lied.

[@DobbyPotterPS4]

Hype!

[@falloutboy5758]

Dobby PlayStation where are your new videos

[@burgerboy-o9m]

Are their going to make sure they fixed the sounds of the weapons

[@ragingjavier0075]

It would be cool if you could upgrade ur weapons, clothes to have better protection, ability to upgrade and fortify ur camp, and finally recruit survivors to maintain and defend the camp or go on mini runs to get ammo, materials, or gas. I honestly feel like grinding is pointless unless it improves gameplay. It only sucks that the bike is the only vehicle you can use.

[@brianogilby7220]

While Im looking forward to Vampyr and the next Werewolf and Mummy game more then Days Gone (there are not enough of them for one thing) it does look like it can beat the Zombie fatigue enough for me to buy it when it comes out at this point. The PostApocalyptic type Sci Fi Survival Zombie genre (these are not horror games) is overdone but Days Gone looks better then the most of the games in that catagory based on the gameplay footage so far.

[@cypher7031]

Brian Ogilby what werewolf and mummy game?

[@brianogilby7220]

Yare Yare Sake whatever ones that may come out in the next decade or so.

[@umairhayat6402]

How was vampyr?

[@kobra6660]

I want to see syphon filter come back of everything

[@oleson3413]

I think this game is gonna be perfect I love it already an I ain’t even got my hands on it yet I keep rewatching gameplay lmao

[@henrymoreno5170]

The number 1 lingering question....RELEASE DATE???!!!!!

[@gymratdave]

This game looks awesome. Can't wait to play it. My only question is when the hell is it coming out?

[@jesusfabiangonzalez9329]

This music❤️

[@MsCashMehOwt]

Do u do free roam when u complete days gone story? 😊

[@Elduque40]

can I get that instrumental

[@robotcapital4774]

so they added difficulty levels

[@mattyb584]

I really like what game informer is doing with these games. With these guys and then with The Outer Worlds, it is really helpful and informative. I'm surprised they are able to find a new game every month

[@AngryBulldogGaming]

can you ask them next time if they plan to release a demo before the end of 2018 no pressure but i think it's a great game and i'm sure people want to would love to see a demo as well before it releases.

[@ericnick4498]

Angry Bulldog Gaming No demo

[@brianhale7528]

Can't wait for days gone think Sony bend doing a great job thanks game informer been doing a great coverage all year on the mouths

[@jessepike3565]
