    I don’t understand why the media gave such a low marks on this game, I love the story , the graphic is fantastic, the gun play isn’t the call of duty type , but it is more slow pace and realistic. People should really buy the game and support a good studio so that they can continue to product the next good game for us.

    It is an amazing open world game just like RDR2 & GTAV, just without the polish. My only big issue is the some bugs/glitches and the occansional tone/volume of the voice acting. I enjoyed this more than Dying Light or the Dead Islands. The new king of open world zombie games :)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This Game is a mixed pot. I really liked the Story and the Characters. They told an excellent narrative and a believeable apocalyptical scenario. The Game takes a really long time and could be splitted in 3 acts. The First 1/3 feels a bit slowly but the atmosphere keeps you playing. After that the game begins to shine all around Camp Iron Mike, this section was so much fun and very well written. The last act starts little boring but it all ends up well then. I really liked the lots of cutscenes even if they are quite short (but this also leads to a big problem).

    For the Gameplay I can say I didnt liked the Gunplay at all, cause the hit feedback was very poor. Also the sidequests were all the same over and over again. But this can be done better easily in a next part. Also i wished we had a bigger section to play in a big City.

    The real bad part of this game and only reason I have to give a 6/10 is the brutally bad performance for a lot of the times. Its horrendous how the technique site of this game after all these patches is. FPS dropping like hell sometimes and without restarting the Game it will get worse. And then the loading screens, they take you often out of moments, especially if they show you a very little cutscene, which is introduced by a longer loading screen (in some rare moments).

    All in all i would definitly recommend this game, in its main party it is a brutally good Game and a lovely story. But you have to be good with Performance problems.    … Expand

This game is not meant to be a "shooter"!!! I never had an issue with the shooting mechanics of the game. I'm able to kill sniper with assault rifle without using focus skill in the game. I have played the entire game purely stealth killing but there are scenes that you will have to use your guns such as killing hordes, which can be scary at times as you need to have a strategy and have played the game with the most recent patch so any of the easy kill glitch does not work when I've played the game, and other scenes in the game. Graphics, animation, audio/soundtrack is well made for this game. I had a lot of fun playing this game and I'm looking forward for another Bend studio game!… Expand

    Great game. Lots of hours of gameplay (I'm 12 hours in and not nearly finished playing) and the map gets bigger the further you get into the main storyline. The zombies keep terifying you and hordes are so, so dangerous. The only thing missing is weapon upgrades and the whole 'trust-level' thing in camps is a bit annoying. Other than that, this game is poorly judged by professional reviewers.

    I describe this game as being the Ubisoft of zombie games.

The player upgrade system is barebones, but it works well so it's not much of a problem. My favorite part of this game, is not only the zombies, but the setting. You play as a biker, in a fictional version of Oregon. All the trees, grass and wilderness is a nice change of pace from most zombie games, which either seem to be set in big cities, or creepy, isolated areas.… Expand

    Это моя игра года 2019, не знаю, почему она ничего не получила на TGA. Возможно, на старте у игры были проблемы с багами, я играл уже в ноябре 19, столкнулся только с одним багом, пришлось загружать сохранение. По ощущениям это помесь Mad Max и Dying Light, обе из которых я обожаю.

That being said, I’ll start of by saying the game itself has a beautiful story filled with some unexpected turns. Sure there are some predictable moments, but that is to be expected with any story. I thoroughly enjoyed the detailed firsthand experience of Deacon’s relationship with his wife and thought it was interesting how the game developers depicted the connection between the two. There was no sappy romance, which would have been unfitting for a game of this genre, but instead an underlying current to their entire relationship that is humorous and refreshingly subtle. I also enjoyed the array of character personalities found within the game. There are multiple authoritative characters all presented with different core elements to their personality; each behaves differently around the main character and each one has their own significance found in separate story lines. A necessity for games following a singular character is that players themselves need to be able to develop a sense of connection to the main character. Day’s Gone does this perfectly by creating a main character that is likable in every situation. Deacon never displays a lapse of his good moral judgment that would force the player to find themselves rooting against him nor does he ever behave in a way that would seem out of character. For those seeking diversity, there are characters of color held in high esteem throughout the story, some of whom are either leaders of their group or subtly radiate authoritative qualities. There are others who are strongly beneficial or necessary to their group even without the presence of leadership. There are women who either run a camp themselves or who benefit their groups drastically in such a way that their presence is essential. Another aspect that I found particularly enjoyable is the variety of enemies within the game. From rippers, anarchists, marauders, and simple hostage situations to the different types of freakers, there are plenty of enemies to face off against. Moving further away from the story itself, there are plenty of things to do outside of the main gameplay. One can engage in plenty of side quests, take on hordes of freakers, explore undiscovered locations, etc. There is no shortage of side quests, exploration, and adventure within the game. The graphics themselves are exquisite and contain a large amount of variety throughout each scene and location. Day’s Gone brings together the best aspects of similar games within its genre while still maintaining its own uniqueness and beauty. I firmly believe that Day’s Gone deserves more credit than is given and I would strongly recommend the game to anyone who is interested.… Expand

    I honestly don't get the low critic score, maybe it was due to technical issues at release because I got it recently after DG have been patched many times.

    Absolutely love the game, I wasn't expecting getting hooked on it so much.

    Don't listen to all those bad reviews. This game is amazing! You have a loot, trade system and rewards for killing zombies and getting bounties. A prevailing element of stealth which is the main reason I am into it. The game mechanics are very smooth and feel right to me. This is what happens when a game is exclusive to Sony. Freaking awesome and bug free.

If the only thing you care for in a game is length, you're in luck: The game is roughly 15 hours longer than it has any right to be, as it continually introduces new characters and storylines long after any competent writer would have wrapped things up. But a competent writer never laid eyes on the development of Days Gone, and as a result it gets a story to match it's shoddy, glitch-ridden gameplay.… Expand

    Yo no lo compraba por las criticas tan fuertes que habia recibido el juego, pero lo hice y me lleve una grata sorpresa. Es cierto que aun quedan algunos bugs pero nada que no haya visto en algun otro juego. La historia empieza lenta pero poco a poco va agarrando ritmo y cierra muy bien. Tambien es cierto que hay misiones repetitivas pero a mi parecer son divertidas. Muy buen juego, lo recomiendo.

    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.
