    Rockstar nailed it again! They dominated the zombie-survival genre with their first try. No one else makes worlds so alive. No one else makes characters so unique....Oops! I just realized that this game is made by... Bend Studio. Ok. Guys this game is awful and silly and repetitive and... anyway, don't buy it.

    How are the critics so mixed on this game? Acting? Great. Characters? Unique and amazing. Story? Sucks you in and keeps you interested. Gameplay? Addicting AF! Upgrade system? Check. Regrets? That I didn't play this sooner. This games definitely deserves more praise than it got, and Sony should be jumping on the opportunity to keep the series going. If only all zombie games were this fun.

    I didn't play Days Gone when it first released. I played it in December of 2020. I can honestly say that I don't understand the low scores at all. Days Gone is fantastic. The story, characters and writing is top notch. The gunplay is clunky at first but much better after you get the ranged talent upgrades and better guns later in the game.

    The world feels very real. When you are

    The world feels very real. When you are scavenging for parts or materials you feel a sense of dread. You may happen upon a few freaks or a whole horde. The first time you encounter a horde by accident is unbelievable. Truly terrifying when you are unprepared.

    I really hope that, despite the bad reviews the game garnered, it gets a sequel. There's a great series here and it deserves a chance to improve on the original.

    A 7.5 would work great IMO. The game is fun, challenging, and looks good. Story is pretty good, nothing to knock your socks off, but its fine. I like the motorcycle aspect. Nice having something to move around on that is not a horse. Overall its a good game. But for the love of god, someone tell Decon to speak up. Its a chore to understand what he is saying

    My score is totally related to how I am enjoying so much this game.
    Even with some bugs, game itself is well done and the caracters, NPCs and the great story behind the walls give me all what I like most in a game. Ane off course! Face and kill hordes is quite funny!!! In my opinion, you will experience much more fun compared to others as Horizon Zero Down, Spider

    I finally finished Days gone today and I must say, it was way better than I thought it would be. I can't remember the last game I invested 80 hours into without taking any hiatuses. Here are my bullet points.

    Pros: - Great story, it hits generic beats typical for the genre but overall a great experience. It was novel-like in its ability to keep me wanting to know what was happening
    I finally finished Days gone today and I must say, it was way better than I thought it would be. I can't remember the last game I invested 80 hours into without taking any hiatuses. Here are my bullet points.

    Pros:
    - Great story, it hits generic beats typical for the genre but overall a great experience. It was novel-like in its ability to keep me wanting to know what was happening next and often-times I would play much longer than intended simply to see where the story was headed.

    -Good gameplay, it was nothing revolutionary but was never a nuisance in any regard. I loved mowing down waves and waves of freakers while upgrading my guns and skills.

    - The bike was great, It was annoying before getting fuel tank upgrades and prior to clearing most of the infestation zones but was a very cool and unique way to traverse the giant map.

    - The characters were for the most part excellent and complimented deacons insanity and disregard for his own life. Not all hit the mark though (looking at you Lisa).

    - The various sidequests could become tedious at times, but the game gives you a reason to complete each one. For example, clearing infestations made less freakers spawn and frees up your ability to fast travel while taking out ambush camps made the roads safer and filled out the map.

    - Excellent enemies, I loved seeing all the freakers and tainted beasts and... untainted beasts.

    - there's plenty more to say but I'll stop there.

    Cons:
    - The game was buggy, like super buggy. I'm a bethesda fan so I'm used to buggy open world games, but in the last act of the game there were so many game breaking bugs that could only be fixed by restarting my ps4 it became very tiring. I had a cutscene where the floor had disappeared, when the cutscene ended I fell through nothingness to my death. I would also get trapped in one-way invisible walls that would force me to restart my game. The list goes on and on.

    - Ammo capacity upgrades were locked behind level three trust within camps, making them only available far later in the game. I had only unlocked one or two by the time I beat the story and it took me around 80 hours due to always completing areas before moving on

    - The texture loading was god-awful at times, sometimes never loading at all throughout a cutscene. I can recall many times where boozers head tattoos were just... blurs.

    - some of the skills felt meaningless and there were strange additions to gameplay such as throwing rocks which I never once used at all. Then again, I played on normal - they may be more beneficial on higher difficulties.

    - Some of the Skills were useless, like throwing rocks to stun a single enemy or following up a melee attack with a ranged attack.

    - While the enemies that were in the game were great, there could have been a much larger variety, there is endless possibilities of what they could do with this "infection"

    All in all, the game was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone looking for their next open world fix. It wasn't perfect, and there were many flaws, but the things that were done right really made this game a memorable experience for me - 8/10.

    A good game, which was killed by the SJW press with their articles, which reduced points for the fact that the main character is white and not a woman. Most of the reviewers did not even go through half the game, as they themselves said. WTF

    It's a good game , where u will have a lot of emotions. But really there are no revolutions , know that. And Im not angry about situation, when only GOOD game are ported to PC, if u have PS4 or Pc play this game, buy this game. The biggest problem is long of game from 80 hours in middle, so if u have time and u love action in openworld u will like this game.
    Im waiting for second part.

    A queda de fps no lançamento foi horrível, estragava completamente a experiência mas já melhorou bastante sendo agora pontuais.
    A história não foi nada demais, um pouco previsível e enfadonha.

    Lo mejor: Las hordas son brutales, buena historia y personajes, largo pero no se hace pesado y es muy divertido.

    Lo peor: Caídas de framerate, incluso llegando a quedar bloqueada la pantalla por medio segundo, texturas que no cargan. Algún cambio de mecánicas básicas para ciertos bosses me parecen un fallo.

The downside with this is the occasional FPS drop when entering settlements. Atleast that was the case for my playthrough. The story was well above average for me, it wasn't breathtaking, but it had a solid foundation and a lot of organic character building, and a satisfying conclussion. It didn't feel rushed or senseless in any sort of way for me. The gameplay was fun, and challenging in many areas. However I do recommend playing on Hard or higher difficulties if you really want to immerse yourself in this tense survival, zombie themed experience. I spent 60+ hours on this game and I unlocked the platinum trophy. And for any trophy hunters, like myself reading this I can say with a happy heart that the trophies are well crafted. No difficulty related or multiple playthroughs or missable trophies. I am really happy overall with this game, though I wish for some more lore to the virus, a more intellegent AI and for the player to be a teeny tiny less dependant on the bike you traverse the invirornment with. Other than that a fantastic game that I probably will play again on NG+! Expand

    One of the most underrated "perfect" games I have played! I was about not to play the game, as I had second thoughts because of some reviews. God! I'm happy I did not!

    Now, before you read my review, I give a lot of emphasis to story and gameplay mostly. Of course, audio, music, graphics, mechanics are important too, but you get the point. This game, is a kind of post apocalyptic world,
    One of the most underrated "perfect" games I have played! I was about not to play the game, as I had second thoughts because of some reviews. God! I'm happy I did not!

    Now, before you read my review, I give a lot of emphasis to story and gameplay mostly. Of course, audio, music, graphics, mechanics are important too, but you get the point.

    This game, is a kind of post apocalyptic world, that was taken by zombies (although they say they are mutated beings), that came surprise surprise... by a virus! Ok, here sounds little bit like Resident Evil and The Last Of Us as idea. Well, it would look more to The Last Of Us as open world. Two bikers, I've looking for his wife with a hope not to be dead, when the whole owner is. Like in the Lady Of Us, people are divided, looking to survive, everyone for himself. So, the freaks (zombies) is not your only problem on this world and every enemy needs a different approach. Our protagonist, is a drifter, he died not belong to any camp. He's a biker, that before everything went down, belonged to (as you notice) a Motorcycle Club and before that, he served in Afghanistan (to explain his skills), that the last, explaining every detail, did how will written is this game!

    Battle is being developed the whole time. You start with normal weapons, on the end you have fun machine guns and snipers, to molotovs and traps. The amazing thing is, the game is made, in order to use all of them! The game or is both stealth and action during combat.

    I loved the voice acting and the music. It gave me some scare moments too. The few songs or had, I literally love to listen to them.

    The world is so perfectly made and the graphics so great, that I believe this would have many to be made for PS5 instead of PS4. That is one of the few "negatives" actually. It is the only game, that actually brought my PS4 Pro to it's knees! It's not happening a lot, but especially if you like me, you ready the console instead of closing out or restarting it, you'll get frame drops and you will hear the PS4 Pro working on full power!

    A great game overall and a must but for the fans!

    Me parece un gran título Su mundo habierto y ambientación es muy interesante. Tal vez no es el mejor de todos los exclusivos de playstation pero almenos lo coloco entre los 5 mejores, gráficamente luce hermoso con sus bosques, zonas nevadas, pantanos,etc. Almenos es mi opinión al jugarlo en PS4 PRO con HDR y las mejoras que ofrece en teles 4k
    La trama es bastante larga y aun que no es

    La trama es bastante larga y aun que no es perfecta. Cumple bastante bien y mantiene enganchado...
    Entiendo sus primeras malas debido a a la caída de Frame rate y de bugs con los que salió...
    Pero considero que han hecho un gran trabajo en irlo arreglando y a día de hoy con todos los añadidos que han hecho merece mucho la pena...
    Sin duda un juego de 9/10
    Espero con ansias una secuela

The purchase was followed by 14 continuous days of playing this masterpiece and getting platinum. The plot, gameplay, soundtrack, motorcycle control, animation of finishing moves, battles with hordes of freaks, chases, additional storylines, excellent localization and many other little things in general create an irresistible desire to return to this world again and again. I really hope Bend Studio will make a sequel. One of the best Sony exclusives of the past generation.

    My compliments to everyone who had a hand in creating this masterpiece. I recommend it to everyone without exception.

    This game is just amazing. You know, this game is similar to the game series souls-like.

From a primitive and boring plot, it turns into a drama that can only be better than Last Of Us. The gameplay becomes more and more interesting over time. From a banal third-person shooter with just disgusting shooting mechanics, it turns into a real survival, with interesting shooting, incredibly interesting movements on the bike. The graphics in the game are excellent, and thanks to the patches, it has become a completely different game. Also in the game there are incredible little things that are usually found in Naughty Dog games, which is undoubtedly pleasing. You can see that the creators of this game love it very much and do everything possible to make it better. At the start, I gave it 6/10, but now, I realized that this game deserves 8/10 points. Thank you to Bend Studio for such an incredible experience. I apologize in advance for grammatical errors, thank you Google Translate :) Expand

    I have played this game from start to finish with about 90% of the trophies completed and I can honestly say this game is amazing.

    Pros: Deacon St John is an excellently written and acted character that fits the hardcore biker with a softer side he tries to hide. Boozer and the other supporting characters are also very well done not only giving Deacon a hard time over different things
    I have played this game from start to finish with about 90% of the trophies completed and I can honestly say this game is amazing.

    Pros: Deacon St John is an excellently written and acted character that fits the hardcore biker with a softer side he tries to hide. Boozer and the other supporting characters are also very well done not only giving Deacon a hard time over different things but also helping him out along the way. The art department did an outstanding job with the gear, environment, and the enemies. The cuts scenes were also very well done. I honestly do not remember any of them having issues.

    Cons:graphics lag is horrendous with pop ins, delays in seeing completed pictures, things like tattoos just being a blurry mess, or just not loading at all. The control of the motorcycle can be a bit unstable even at endgame with it being decked out. I also had an issue with some of the hordes not loading right. I had one reset at the very end of the fight and another I had to restart the game to force the horde to spawn.

    Overall this is an excellent post apocalyptic world game that I feel leaves itself open for a second one if they decided to do another one. I just really hope they fix the Issues before they do.

    Game is good. Yes, its often "repetitive", but since every quest is "customised" you don't feel it that much. I.e. in Assasin Creed series I had a real problem with repetitive missions, here i dont. Main differentiator I think, in AC they put 90% of the budget on visuals, here they still had some money for story.

    Story is quite good, leveling system imo also ok. I mean, I can write

    I mean, I can write all day long pros and cons for this game, but at the end I was very happy with my purchase. Maybe hadnt had as much fun as with GTA 5, but definitely more than with latest Assassins. For reasonable price, strongly reccomend.

    Только что закончил проходить её.
    Да местами она до сих пор способна выдать баги, но тем неменее игра отличная. Начиная от геймплея, заканчивая сюжетом, хорошо прописанными персонажами и теми эмоциями, что вызывает эта игра. А это главное.

They do an awesome job on the terrain for your bike.The 71 metascore is honestly ridiculous. I also thing the 81 userscore is low. I thought this game was phenomenal.

The bike is crazy fun to ride in the open world. They do an awesome job on the terrain for your bike. They do an amazing job at making the hordes scary and fearful and when you finally get strong enough to take one on it feels very accomplishing. When the game first came out people were saying it had bugs and audio was off and frame rate issues hence the lower score but as of this review the game is amazing and all those issues are fixed. In my opinion I think this game is super close to games like God of war and horizon zero Dawn. Play this game. Expand

    What an absolutely amazing game!
    The horde idea where you have to hunt and kill 300 zombies all at the same time, all on screen without frame rate drops, is a benchmark in video game history. Nothing like this was ever made. Not even close. And it's outstanding.
    The story is good, the characters are very well built and the acting is the best you can have in the gaming or movie industry.

La historia fue muy interesante ya que a medida que vamos adentrándonos más en el personaje; el mismo nos va contando su historia y como fue era todo antes de que llegara el virus freaker a través de Flashbacks ,el juego fue muy divertido ,sorprendente, con mucho contenido, desafíos y misiones alternativas como solía tener GTA V Sin lugar a duda alguna *DAYS GONE* Es el mejor juego de zombies que eh jugado.

    Хорошая игра с красивой графикой и интересными активностями. Сюжет не особо оригинальный, но следить за ним интересно.
    Из минусов - бесящие баги. Зависаний было два+ несколько геймплейных багов, вроде исчещающей орды, невозможности поднятия предметов и т.п.
    Второй жирный минус - игра очень затянута и наполнена однообразными активностями, которые к 5-6 разу сильно надоедают. Те же миссии

    Bend Studio made a great game with a rich, believable and captivating story. They’ve also resisted the lure of trends: there’s no multiplayer, no lootboxes, no “game as a service” plans – just a very solid (and finite) singleplayer experience. That makes it a rare gem these days, maybe one of the last of its kind. [Issue#238, p.42]

    At the beginning of the game you’ll feel like you've already played this game... then it will let you go for a while only to return with reinforcements (and lots of bugs). However, Days Gone has a couple of pleasant moments, that can't be denied. [Issue#295]

    I expect and hope for a sequel. Just know that going into this game that there is a lot of tedious nonsense to pad out a really good game to make it feel more worth every dollar, much to its detriment. I want to give this game a better score because the best moments are so good, but the large portion of this game is so bloody tiring that I just can’t.
