Days Gone isn't great, but it still has likeable qualities. Was anyone else coaxed to play Days Gone after the sales news? Did you play it at launch? Did you like the game or did the flaws get in the way? If you'd like to see more of my content, here's the Critical Nobody playlist - bit.ly/2M3r65U

i played this on pc, fucking loved it so much, not a masterpiece but it also doesnt stumble or slip anywhere either, there are plenty of things that could be polished or improved but nothing actually wrong with it at all, great soundtrack, some great mechanics, believable characters and a fun open world, id personally slap this with an 8.5, pretty much all the jank is gone from the pc release apart from the odd animation desync here and there but that shit has been prevalent in these sorts of games since arkham asylum first dropped

Days Gone is a fantastic, tense experience if you play it on the higher difficulties. Having to sneak around, using hit and run tactics and trying to save on gas and ammo had me on edge the whole time, and the game expands the amount of freakers per area. This essentially makes any township a horde spawn, and it's absolutely horrifying having to take out the nests. It also removes the superpower abilities, making you use your eyes and ears for everything. I highly recommend playing it like that for your first playthrough. It's also secretly a Syphon Filter game, so 😎👉👉

@@larifax-8107 Don't get me wrong, there are technically better games, heck, more competent games out there. Days Gone is fairly unique with what it makes of the more tropey elements of modern survival game design. Sure, it might play like a slightly faster paced Last of Us sometimes, but a good majority of the game is strategizing when and where you're going to drive to not end up attracting a horde and running out of gas. You will never know true, pants crapping terror until you have a good hundred freakers chasing you a few metres out, and after you've run out of gas, have to slowly kick your bike up a hill so you can use gravity to keep yourself alive for just a bit longer. I think the game would have done better as a AA, middle market indie published game rather than a big budget Sony exclusive, as the hype kinda killed any chance of its seemingly intended niche demographic.

I played through the game when it came on PC and I felt like it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. All the bugs that every other reviewer had talked about in their videos were ironed out, the characters felt well written and the Deacon himself felt like a very compelling character and his relationship with Boozer felt genuine and authentic. I did almost all the sidequests and while they were hardly anything to write home about, it was a good time for me since I enjoyed the core gameplay loop well enough. Sucks that it isn't going to get a sequel but I feel like this game will be appreciated much more in retrospect.

I have a weird relationship with Days Gone. I love the game, with all it's flaws, and truly think it deserves a sequel. I got it free with PS Plus, and played it non-stop for 2/3 weeks, as did all my friends. We spent hours talking about the story, our favorite moments, and our favorite characters (Boozer. No other answer.) It has its bugs, but it's still insane to fight huge hordes while biking around. Sam Witwer's performance is great, and I wish we got some more closure on his and Sarah's story. The memories I have with this game are mostly because of the story, and the times my friends all played in the party together.

The best thing about Days Gone is that it had the voice actress who did Elizabeth in Bioshock Infinite in her first role since that game. Hopefully she does more, she's great. And the reason all these IP's make up dumb names for their zombies is because you can't copyright or trademark zombie. And if Days Gone ends up becoming successful(lol) then they can sell Freaker merch, and control the Freaker brand. XD

I really enjoyed my time with Day's Gone. I played it after most of the bugs were patched and fixed so those didn't effect my experience much. Just cruising around blasting freakers and exploring the world kept me coming back for more. The story and characters were decent but nothing new or groundbreaking. The graphics and sound are great I have zero complaints on those. The combat was a ton of fun. I played the game on hard and felt the difficulty was just right. It kept things tense with regular humans being able to take my health down fairly quick and the hordes were a total rush to fight as I had to plan things out and play wisely to survive them. To me Day's Gone is a gem in the rough and I hope it eventually gets a sequel with a bit more polish and some fresh ideas.

The story was completely adequate and I personally liked/loved all the characters especially boozer. There were definitely some slow points to the game but I wouldn’t necessarily call them boring. I also thoroughly enjoyed the combat, stealth, and mechanics. I recommend anyone to play this game at least once! 8.5/10.

This was my lockdown game (1st one March 2020) and I loved it. Played on PS4 Pro and no bugs or crashes whatsoever. I enjoyed the story and the hordes were just so well done and I just loved coming up with tactics and plans to sort of a script my own fights. It might not be a masterpiece but it was fun and diverting at a time I really needed something to be just that. On scoring of games - one persons 10 is another’s 1 - so by and large meaningless. Read a few reviews and take my chances is my modus operandi. The scores I ignore. For me I’d score this as ‘enjoyable’.

I started playing Days Gone earlier in the year and put 12 hours in before I had to take my PS4 out because it was roaring and put my PS5 in. I’ve only just restarted playing it in the last week and have got back to where I was before and I’m loving it. I’ve seen a few buggy things here and there like an enemy flying from one rock to another and then spotting me while I was trying to take out a camp and dead Freakers do a rag doll jump up into the air randomly but otherwise I think it’s a great game. I love the forested north west setting, having to get gas for the bike, fix it up and scavenge for resources.

Currently i'm replaying this game on the highest difficulty, that being Survival II which removes the HUD, you can only see the minimap when using Survivor Sense, and enemies do a lot of damage. So far it's been a blast. the gameplay suits it to some degree. the game itself is incredibly flawed but it isn't flawed enough to be considered bad or mediocre. it's okay and does enough to keep itself interesting but not for long. the characters are alright but the story they're stuck in has many issues that should've been ironed out or left on the cutting room floor. Days Gone is the sort of game that you'd play just to pass the time here and there because trying to take huge chunks out of it at once can get tiring. Great video dude. can't wait to see more from you.

The power creep you mentioned was pretty much my entire experience in the game. I played through on normal and keep seeing online videos of people taking on the hordes and was thinking "I can't wait to get to that point." But as soon as I got to that point, I was so fucking bored all the way till I quit with one horde and the final mission left. I just got so burned out I couldn't force myself to finish it. Tried going back to it again but playing on Hard II and I quit again within two hours knowing how long I had before it would get fun. I also find I have a difficult time enjoying playing on my PS4 at all now that I have a decent laptop and have gotten spoiled by above 60fps at all times.

I ain't gonna lie, one of the main reasons I finished this game was because of how great the gun sounds are. You're absolutely right about how the director told Sam to go a little too far with being unhinged. It's some of the corniest "try to sound like a hardass" dialogue I've ever heard. It sounds like a mix between him getting off and trying to sound tough I've ever heard, and it's so bad it's funny. The game would've been so much better if Deacon's wife, Sarah, was actually dead, and he had to learn to let go. The scene at the church was probably the best piece of the narrative, and they threw it all away for a "everyone wins" ending. And as milquetoast as the story is, I kinda liked how feel good it was. It was a nice break from all of Sony's somber, stoic 3rd person action games they've been churning out.

I really liked this game. It had issues with pacing and polish and some weird design choices, but I had lots of fun with the combat and the design of the world really pulls you in. I think Bend, who I was already a fan of from the Syphon Filter games, did a great job on a lot of the environments. I think the story is better than it gets credit for too. I like how optimistic it ultimately is compared to other zombies media and Deacon turns out to be a more unique character than he appears to be at first glance. That sequel hook at the end is insane and I am sad that we may never get to see what they were setting up with it.

All of the criticisms are valid (except I'm not seeing any bugs now or performance issues on a PS4 Pro). But they add up to a solid 8 or even 9 out of 10 because it really feels like you are living, surviving and scavenging in its world in a way that just isn't true for games such as Red Dead or Tsushima. Those are much more story- and mission-orientated whereas Days Gone really nails the open world feel.

I started the game awhile ago and I just couldn't get attached to it. To me, it was the gunplay. It just felt off and not satisfying unlike any other third person shooter.

Enjoyed Days Gone more than I thought, enough that I Platinumed it, but then aside from clearing out Hordes, not much to do after

Your review is spot on, game is very much a solid 6-7/10. Not a masterpiece but not something you're going to regret your life over. I enjoyed my time a lot when playing this game on my first playthrough... until it overstays its welcome then I just rush to the end since I can't be bothered anymore. Had they more time to polish and tighten up the pacing it would've been much better.

Man when I heard that the sequel got canceled I was really sad. Mostly because the potential for an amazing game was here in the first one but it missed the mark.

I know this game is massively flawed: Several bugs and glitches that still happen after patches, an open world that is kind of empty, a pretty meh story that has its moments sometimes and some modern gaming tropes that were inserted so that this game could blend in so well with all other sony games...BUT I still love this freaking game. A satisfying gameplay loop that kept me hooked for 40 hours, an awesome performance from one of my favourite actors (Sam Witwer) as well as beautiful visual design and art direction on pretty much everything. This game is one of my top 3 favourite games (below Journey and Dark Souls). Days Gone is a cult classic that i can't get enough of

I played days gone on PS4 and i think your rewiew is pretty acurate. Bigest problem for me was the pacing, because you spend too mutch time doing side stuff to unlock new gear and bike parts. Also fighting the first mandatory horde was a real shock, because they just throw you into water and expect you to swim. I think horde fights would be mutch better if we had them from begining and they would just escalate.

Great video! It was a likeable game, had all the makings of a masterpiece but gets let down by its downsides. A flawed masterpiece if you will. Its one of those games that could have probably faired better if it stayed in the oven a little longer. Like the rebirth we saw from Cyberpunk 2077 basically releasing in 2023 the game they should have dropped in 2020.

It’s a good game, not great but not bad either, it starts out really slow, feels like you’re just running errands for a few camps, but if you stick with it it’s a worthwhile experience with a satisfying progression system

I enjoyed this game alot tbh, did all nero collectibles, all ambushes, all historic landmarks, i hated the hordes so much tbh, when I finished the game, and did the rest, there was only a couple infestation left in the last area of the game and all the hordes all over the world, having to collect supplies to build stuff to fight the hordes was the last thing on my mind, loved the experience of doing as much as I could In the game, but stuff like hordes I couldn't be bothered to do at all. If there's anyone else who agrees pls let me know

I streamed and finish this game. But there's still a lot of things to do! I'm still streaming this, clearing hordes & side missions. It has its flaws, but it's enjoyable. I've said it so many times on my stream... Believe it or not, It's like playing Horizon, but with zombies... I mean freakers. 🤣

I stopped playing shortly after Deacon discovers his wife is actually still alive. It's just such a mind numbingly OKAY game and is virtually indistinguishable from any modern Ubisoft game which seems to be the new trend for Sony exclusives now. Horzion, Tsushima and Days Gone, all pretty much Ubisoft clones.

You know the beginning I was actually going to defend these gone even though I have not played it yet but because it looked very good my opinion and then after watching videos realized that there are a lot of missed opportunities that was not in the main game itself so I guess I will have to retract my defense on that game
