    I really don't get all those bad reviews. This game is great! You have a hole trade system and rewards for killing zombies and getting bounties. All the combat system is very smooth and feel right to me. I think this what happens when the game is exclusive for Sony, like Horizon that should get 9 or 10 this game should easily get 8-10 score.

    Big fan of Sony 1st party titles last year GOW, Spider Man, Astro Bot... I have to say i'm still shocked how Sony greenlight mediocre product like Days Gone.

    Thankfully i didn't have to buy this as I played it at a friends , why this game took so long is anyone's guess it just has so many bad point's both with bugs and the playability of the game itself.

    Absolutely loving it - this game reminds me of Uncharted 4 mixed up with The last of us in an astonishing open world setting - couldn´t expect more.

    The graphic and music are excellent. Smooth animations and beautiful atmosphere bring the bizarre zombie world to life. Storytelling has some mess and easy to know.

    This took so long to release I expected something special but got the opposite, If it were an indie game at an indie game price then you could maybe forgive it's faults ,but it is Full price for a very average Zombie game (despite the zombies not being called zombies) with technical issues that just make it annoying to play. Very disappointing.

    Massive single player experience, no time is the game asking you about your credit card, no microtransactions, and no loot boxes. One epic adventure with cool characters and an amazing narrative + fun game mechanics. Beautiful graphics and sound and music is next level, 3D sound goddamn Sony bend.

    The gameplay is just so repetitive and seen it all before and to make matters worse it has frame pacing problems and pop up.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is NOWHERE near as bad as these so-called "professional reviewers" are saying.
    IGN actually dropped points because the game has slow-mo shooting. If this was a COD game it'd be praised for "innovation".
    Anyway, this game for me has been a great ride, sure there are bugs, a few fps drops, some pop in and it doesn't innovate the open world formula in any way, but the moment to moment gameplay is fun, the combat is punchy and the story is great.
    There was one moment in the game where you visit your wife's "grave" stone. It does a ton of flashback cutscenes that fade in and out very awkwardly as though there was supposed to be gameplay moments in-between, I think that the opening of the game should have been these cinematics, mixed with gameplay introducing you to stealth when getting behind the man with the gun (who is panicked and thinks you killed HIS wife), moving through the burning streets protecting your wife from rioters and early-freakers. Then transition into the opening bike driving act, then you would have been up to speed with on-foot mechanics simultaneously. while establishing a bigger bond with your wife.
    Also a tiny nitpick. not much of a con at all, doesn't affect the score: But I would have loved if Deacon had like a mixtape playlist that you can listen to while driving around similar to Star-Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy but Rock Biker music from the days before the apocalypse, with great licensed music. Again, no big deal, would've been cool and fitting though haha.
    Great experience all around for me. Don't listen to those big reviewers, form your own opinion.    … Expand

    Amazing game, the graphics, story, polish and game play are all up to par for this generation, not sure what the critics are on about but I liked this game way better than Horizon Zero Dawn (which was received better) and just as much as GoW. ITS A MUST PLAY for fans of open world survival games.

    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.
