    This game takes the zombie genre and adds some interesting elements to it. Overall the game has a good story and nice overall gameplay with the bike being one of the best things about the game. However repitative side missions and FPS issues are a set back.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Compared to other games from Sony, Days Gone felt like a let down. Sure the world feels big but its also very empty. Many of the characters are just not likable, make poor choices and lack backstory overal. For example the person "Jack" is apparantly an very important character for Deacon, however we never see him at all in the entire story. Where do the rippers come from? Why are they cutting themselfs? How did the virus spread so far so fast? Why didn't the govermant do anything? I mean if deacon can kill 300 zombies on his bike, shouldnt a tank be able to do alot more? Nothing makes sense. The main bad guy never tells his reasons for trying to murder other camps.

    The only thing that I do like in the game is the one horde battle which is shown in the trailer. However the ps4 has a lot of trouble to proces all that action, which causes the horde to stop moving at all. Overal I am disapointed with what I got.    … Expand

    Got some issue, mostly graphic. But overall it is a very good game, definitely a 8, but I gave it a 9 just to boost the score up. Can't believe GameSpot gave Days Gone a 5 and gave Assassin's Creed Odyssey an 8. I love Origins but can not stand Odyssey for 5 hours, and I play Days Gone for more than 10 hours and it still suck me in.

    It might not do much in the form of originality, but it's a solid game. The only criticism I have is that it could have had a bit more polish. If you're on the fence then and you enjoy zombies and bikers then I highly recommend it.

Where do I begin. The story is investing, the characters are believable and give great performances, the environment is amazing, the gunplay feel good (hard at first, but better equipment and skills make the gunplay improve vastly as you play) and there are many different activities and random occurrences in the world. On top of that, halfway through the game I found out there are way more weapons than I thought. No matter your playstyle there is a setup for you. So excited to keep playing and I hope this convinces someone to pick it up! It's great, do it! Its GTA meets Last of Us.. nothing has the emotion and story of the Last of Us, but this game still does many things right. Oh, and it's scary. Great soundtrack for those scares.… Expand

    The story is not narrated chronologically and hence may feel a little disjointed. Having said that I really enjoyed the story and it made me care for the two main characters of this game.

    Graphics wise, this game is stunning. Due to the limitation of budget and team size, some aspects of the game are not at the highest level i.e. polygon count, skin texture, etc. , but where it shines it the lighting department. It has a brilliant weather system.

    Gameplay wise, the enemy AI is a but weak but it being an open world game with so many enemies, killing the freaks was a fun experience. The shooting is a bit off in the beginning but as we progress, it gets better.

    Overall I really enjoyed this game and I would recommend this to all the gamers who enjoy Sony Games. It might not be up there with the likes of GOW, Spiderman, Horizon, TLOU, Uncharted, etc. , but it holds it's own in many aspects.

    The story's first act is weak but picks up when you venture south to Lost Lake.

The bike is by far the best character of the game, it reflects your development through the story and must not be neglected. I will agree that it can be a bit tedious at the start, especially finding fuel but after the half way point, it is no longer a problem. This is a buggy game with many audio problems, it definitely needed more polish. This is a "AA" game which has overstretched itself, some mainstream reviews are a bit harsh as it is no "Last of Us 2". It is a good game, not terrible or amazing. For a first time IP, I had a good time after spending over 60 hours in the story. I would recommend that you try this game.… Expand

    I'm not sure why critics gave such a low rating. While it's not a super memorable story, the game is solid, and fun. A few repetitive things, if you're a completionist, but not nearly as bad as some genres. And frankly, the slightly smaller map size, with a fun mode of transportation that you need to maintain, is refreshing.

This game isn't great in that department, but it is at least still fun and more so than a much more more highly rated game. The world, story and atmosphere in Days Gone are incredibly enjoyable, and achieves a very dense feeling post-apocalyptic woodland, very similar to The Walking Dead aesthetic. If you are a fan of RDR2, The Last of Us, or was put off buying due to reviews - buy the game. Just look at fan reception. You can see that people who play the Days Gone without any other motive than to just enjoy it are confused by the media score and are enjoying a great game.… Expand

    I don't understand all of the high user scores for this game. While this is not a bad game it isn't a good game either. There are numerous technical issues such as the motorcycle driving straight through road instead of on it. The fighting is nothing special. Most of the guns are useless, or just unnecessary. Aiming is worthless until you get a through upgrades. Taking cover is also made into a difficult process. My least favorite thing about this game is how the money is split between camps. If you don't have money in the area with the motorcycle shop or the gunsmith it becomes almost useless, I found myself fast traveling to unnecessary places just so I could by ammo or fill up my bike. The story is all right, but is ruined by the most cliched **** ever in Skizzo who should really just be named "Sketch". All the other characters are either complete ****s, really stupid, or a combination of both. Hordes are the bright spot of this game, but even that is greatly diminished with a tiny stamina bar, and in inability to get far enough away from hordes to hit them with a molotov without lighting yourself on fire. Then there is all the collecting of items just to make items like pipe bombs and super Molotovs can be a pain in the ass. You cannot buy crafting ingredients, and you can't hold much until later upgrades. The bike has an incredibly small gas tank, especially at the beginning you will be spending all your money on gas. Motorcycle fights are very boring and kinda annoying. There is an entire quest line dedicated to listening to N.E.R.O officers while hiding in bushes. Never get to far from your bike by the way, because it is your fast travel. You need to constantly hop back on your bike to make sure you don't wander to far away from it.

    In conclusion, I am not a hater like some of you people giving 10/10 are saying. I went into this game knowing nothing about it, and hoping for a good time. By the time I finished I was incredibly frustrated with the game, and especially the stupid ending. Nothing special ever happens in this game. The hordes are the brunt of the zombies, most enemies are just other bikers. Poor shooting ,and melee weapons break very quickly. Everyone drives a bike literally everyone and they also all have a biking background somehow. I mean I guess bikers are better equipped to handle zombie apocalypse aka Daryl Dixon. This is not a 10/10 game anybody who says so must have a bias, because the bugs alone should be enough to not down at least to a 9. I my opinion this is a mediocre game that is not worth a 60 plus dollar purchase. If you want to play it wait for a sale at least, because really this game is incredibly mediocre    … Expand

As of this writing it’s currently at a patch of 1.09. 9 updates to a game with in its first few weeks is pretty bad. And figuring critics only got maybe 2-4 of these patches before launch I can understand their gripes. It just sucks it soured their opinions of a game that once fixed is awesome. So who’s to blame for that? Sony? I think the game needed a few more weeks of polish and i think a lot of outlets would have given it a 8-9 or even better. It’s currently my GOTY (though I’m still playing through Sekiro) it’s a very fun game. The characters are very likable especially Decon the main character. Sam Whitwer did a great job making Decon come alive and feel like a real believable person. Even though by the end of the game you can basically be a power house. With in the story he’s just a normal guy. The story is pretty good nothing mind blowing and has some obvious plot points but over all it’s a fairly good tale. I think the combat is pretty good. Once you upgrade and understand how it all works it’s fun and satisfying. Some of the game can get repetitive but honestly what open world game doesn’t. But I never felt annoyed having to do similar quests. I think the game went on a little longer than it should have. I have a few gripes but it’s nothing that really soured my enjoyment. Some gripes are looting. It can be a chore to loot. Having to hold down square and wait a split second sucks. Picking up the wrong things like enemy guns is annoying. Not being able to reliably find the loot you need to make things. Like late game finding bottles and other stuff to make bombs. Some story elements didn’t make sense. There were still a few bugs and frame rate drops but nothing game breaking at least for me. There was one moment where I was fighting a horde and the horde just stopped and I couldn’t attack. But I just moved out of the area and it all went back to normal with no progression loss. That was the worst bug I got and that was literally the last hour of my 100% run. Overall it’s not a perfect game but it’s really really fun. It’s charming and entertaining. And I really hope Bend gets another shot cause Days Gone 2 could really be a hit! And there is def room for more story in this world. If you enjoy really good games. Trust me you’ll like this. Don’t let the media make you pass this one by. Just look at the user scores vs media. Obviously something isn’t clicking between us.… Expand

    Days Gone is an exciting open world game. When do they say the exciting game of gif? The days that have passed, the span, is an exception. Shooting leaves much to be desired, the main character is a complete **** I want to mention a good prophebot of the world, cool graphics, elegant sound effects. A score of 7/10.

    Also on a number of reviews and blogs have consistently made comparisons in terms of quality with the likes of God Of War, Spiderman, Horizon, etc not understanding Bend Studios is not a massive team as those that have developed those successful games. Bend is a smaller studio that has produced smaller games in the past and this is their first venture in the triple-A market so it is natural they will learn and improve over time.

    It appears unless Sony releases a 9 or 10 out of 10 games they have failed.
    Yet, when you start playing the game you cannot fail to notice the beauty of the environment created and the passion of the developers in creating a compelling adventure worth playing to the end.
    No one from the studio ever suggested that the narrative would be as good as a game like The Last Of Us, but there is a story and it is interesting enough to follow if you approach it through the lenses of fairness.

    The missions, whilst at times are repetitive (and I have not seen a single open world video game that has not repetitive missions) are interesting and fun to make players want to continue to the end.
    The mechanics are good and have improved via the various patches released and the RPG elements (whether it is perks or bike upgrades) keep the game interesting and fun to play.
    In fact, when I read that Bend wanted gamers to care about the bike I did not think it would be possible, yet you are somehow forced to care of it as your life depends on it.

    When this game started receiving lots of negative reports even BEFORE it was released I decided to ignore the pre-judgment and have an open mind. Maybe this is why I have been pleasantly surprised by the game to a point I felt it necessary to come here and leave a review and a score.

    I hope the game sells well enough to give Bend another chance to create a sequel or a new game. Their passion and love for this game mean only that a possible sequel or a new triple-A game, given the correct resources, can only be better.    … Expand

    The storyline is pretty generic zombie apocalypse stuff that's been done a million times before, but it's still a good plot. The gameplay, controls, graphics, audio are all pretty spot on. I love any open world game that let you do whatever you want, whether it's doing the main story mode, side missions, or just exploring the world at your own pace. The only real annoying things so far are how fast your bike runs outta gas and finding gas cans to fill up lol, the game does get repetitive after a while, and ammo can be kind of scarce sometimes.

    I don't really understand all of the negative reviews this game got from the supposed "gaming professional reviewers"?! Like I said before, it's nothing revolutionary, but most games aren't these days. Every new game doesn't need to re-invent the wheel to be a good or great game.    … Expand

On a more serious note, I find that the question marks, denoting an interesting event happening, tend to disappear never to be seen again once you dismount from the bike. It’s got to a stage where I just ignore them now because I am often unable to find the event on foot. These or small points. Otherwise it’s a lot of fun.… Expand

I think that premise alone is what sold the higher-ups at Sony to release a game like this one despite already having The Last of Us under their belt (it certainly did sell it for me). It left me wanting more by the time I achieved the platinum trophy, and with the dawn of the next generation of video games on the horizon it does make me anxious to see what Sony Bend can do with the next title. (with a bigger team in mind).

    Great game. The story was my main gripe: it wasn't as deep and emotionally gripping as I thought it would be (coming from someone who played TLOU and Telltale's/Skybound's The Walking Dead game Saga among other well written narrative-focused properties) and I did not see the chemistry between Deacon and Sarah. They had little to nothing in common with each other and it was super Hollywood cliché with the whole opposites attract myth. The deeper/genuine interactions were with Rikki and with Boozer, quite ironic since Sarah was Deacon's main goal all along.

    Also that plot point regarding Sarah's research was so predictable throughout the game, that I rolled my eyes upon its uncovering. It felt poorly delivered. It was that Syphon Filter reference (in the background as a collectible in a lab, mind you) that felt like the actual twist to it all (and the final conclusion to the NERO sub plot). I'd like more *crunch* in the follow-up game's narrative. Better context, build-up, development and motivation for one's actions. More tensions, cognitive dissonance and more risk, something that really holds a mirror up to the player and says "This is what your species can be, yet be greatful you are in the safety and comfort of a virtual world." It felt more by-the-numbers Hollywood/superficial in this game than minimalistic/grounded compared to other properties that hold this aura of dread, determination, and tenacious hope.

    Yeah, the game succeeded in leaving me wanting more. More positive than negative. I loved playing the game, very fun and happy to have been a part of it. It can only get better from here if they decide to do a follow-up. It must get better. Bend earned our attention, absolutely.    … Expand

But not every game needs to be totally original and although unoriginal, it does most of the things it sets out to do very well. You won't find any level-gating or forced grinding here either. There seems to be just the right amount of side content/side missions, and they're all optional. I'd also like to point out that Bend studio has really nailed the open world formula. Like I said before, there is no forced grinding like there is in so many other AAA open world games today, and the open world is just the right size. Its large enough that it will take you many hours to fully explore, but it is small enough that you will retread the same areas and become at least somewhat familiar with them. I still find interesting little nooks and crannies in the map that I had passed by several times before as I continue to play. This game has so much heart and soul, its extremely clear to me that the developers at Bend Studio really put in the time and effort on every part of it. It's not without its faults, but I found those faults to be completely forgivable given the high level of quality here. If you enjoyed Red Dead Redemption 2, you'll enjoy Day's Gone.

The world is massive, the characters are all voiced well, and the story is fleshed out pretty well. The game delivers on the main thing that it was always noted for, and that being S&#T-LOADS OF ZOMBIES!!! Wandering around the world is already kind of scary due to the loads of freakers and traps that rippers put up, but when you run into a horde, there is nothing else in the game that can cause that level of terror and dread. The main characters Deacon and Boozer are written very well, and their voice actors really did a good job. The customization on your bike is also very well done. It kind of sucks that there really isn't much customization for weapons. Now to move on to some of the games negatives. Fast traveling takes up fuel, which makes you constantly run the meter on your bike, even if you only need to get somewhere near faster. The game, while having a compelling story still is a lot of 'drive here, do this thing, then report to some dude to tell him what happened.' Another thing I absolutely despise is that credits, the currency of the game, are tied to their camp. An example is that, say you have 5000 credits in one camp. Well, if you go to another camp, those 5000 credits are useless since they are tied to that camp, meaning you need to get credits in the new camp. This can be a major pain if you need to upgrade your bike, but most of your money is tied to another camp specialized in weapons. Lastly is freaker extermination missions. While these missions can be very easy if you have enough molotovs, or have a ton of materials to make them, these missions can be horrid to finish if you only have one or two nests left in the zone, but are out of molotovs and their materials, and have picked the area clean of supplies. This means you need to head to a new area to scavenge for, most likely, kerosene. Other than that issue, I do enjoy extermination missions. They are fun, but can be annoying if you run into an extermination zone while low on supplies. Overall, the game is very fun and has a lot of things to do. The characters are written well, and the banter between Deacon and Copeland especially is funny. The world is massive, and the constant threat of freakers and the terror invoked when you run into a horde can constantly keep you on your toes. The world is very fun to explore, and the various missions all running alongside each other means that just driving around will still take you to a mission. The game can be frustrating though with odd things like linking money to it's own camp, taking fuel with fast traveling, and the random-ish nature of ambushes. All-in-All, if you are looking for an open-world slaughterfest filled to the brim with zombies and a compelling story, I would recommend this game strongly, but update it before playing seriously. On version 1.00 the game is prone to random crashes so be careful.… Expand

    Game is a 10. Direction guides you well so that you don't get lost or not know what to do. A feature most games lack.

    Excellent game, reminiscent of Mad Max but has more than enough to stand tall on its own. Every aspect I give high praise, I had very little run ins with glitches. Bend has been doing great job patching. It's a world that is a lot of fun to play in. Love being out in the ****

    Straight up as possible. I have really enjoyed the game. It is a bit repetitious in its side missions but I still find myself enjoying them. Main story is solid. The graphics are great, gameplay is solid. The big negative is that the game is large but the space it creates is not really filled up with gripping experience as much as I would like.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. By no means is this the best game created, but it still is very enjoyable. I started out as an Xbox fanboy, but last year I bought a PS4 due to wanting more games and better exclusives, and I still don't regret my decision to switch sides, this is just another game that Sony made that makes me want to stick with the consol. I understand the complaints about the gameplay and the missions, but to me the game is till highly entertaining and defiantly worth a buy.… Expand

    a breath of fresh air in its genre. I have long wanted to plunge into the World as the plot of the series the Walking dead. So far, only the first hours of the game, and I'm absolutely delighted. The plot unfolds without haste, the hero is interesting, he wants to empathize. You want to live with him this way. And of course his bike! This is a separate topic for discussion.

It sucks for an open world game that every time you interact with other characters you're forced to walk at a slugs pace and listen to whatever blah blah blah person has to say to carry the story (I didn't find them engaging). It's 2019, players know how to walk on their own and listen to other characters speak. But so what? What about the combat? Again, slow and frustrating. Opening the weapon wheel is not fun to craft just one shot or two and slow down the action. I almost forgot, the motorcycle. Again slow and frustrating. The physics weren't terrible when you can drift corners just by hitting a button, but the motorcycle itself is slow, with engine revs not matching it's speed so it hardly feels realistic at all. IGN got a lot of hate for scoring it a 6.5 but I think it's right on imo.… Expand

    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.
