    PS fans complain about FPS drops and long loading time. LOL, What did you all expect? This game was made for PS I know but hardware is so limited there is nothing Devs can do about it. I played on PC and this game runs smooth as butter. That's what can you expect when pathetic limitations are gone. The open-world is good hoards are awesome. Somany placses to go expolor.

Repetitive Missions and God damn white menus are the only things I have to complain about. Reviewers lost their passion for gaming a long time ago. Now they rush through games to get the Revive out as fast as they can. If you just sit down and just tack all in what the game has to offer you'll see how good of a game Days gone is. What the hell? This is awesome! The story is very emotional and smart, the characters are likable, t I can't say any bad. BTW Thank you Sony for releasing this game for PC. Underrated game. Keep your Expiation low you'll start to enjoy more. #PCMR… Expand

    The game is that immersive I bought a PsS4 Pro and played. I'm not a player so you can imagine how good is this gamestory. Brilliant! Awesome! Thrilling! Exciting!
    ...and that feeling of riding the motorbike! Lovely! Like the best of riding motorbike simulation!
    ...also facing hordes... unforgettable! Just masterpiece!

    Days Gone is a good game that is weighed down by the amount of missed potential that is constantly on display. Starting off with the good - The open world feels both big enough and lived-in. Exploring is a blast and every location feels like it has its own backstory. The gameplay is also quite fun although the mission design leaves a bit to be desired at times. Hordes are just asDays Gone is a good game that is weighed down by the amount of missed potential that is constantly on display. Starting off with the good - The open world feels both big enough and lived-in. Exploring is a blast and every location feels like it has its own backstory. The gameplay is also quite fun although the mission design leaves a bit to be desired at times. Hordes are just as terrifying as you would expect and when you get to the point where you can take them on you really feel like a powerhouse.

    Moving on to the cons, the game gets progressively worse the more you play it. The first 10 or so hours are amazing. The next 10 feel like you're stuck in the same place and the last 10 are a downward spiral of both plot and gameplay quality. By the time you get to the end the game feels like it was finished by 1/5 of the team that started it. Both the plot and the characters are nothing to write home about and the pacing is all over the place. Graphical problems are nowhere to be found in the first 10-15 hours but after that you can't go 10 mins without FPS drops, textures not loading correctly or clipping. There is also an obscene amount of loading screens toward the end of the game.

    Overall Days Gone is the Walking Dead game we never got but it lacks direction and is riddled with technical problems.

    P.S.: Whoever made the "Burnout Apocalypse" trophy can go **** themselves. Also good choice by Sony for a PS+ game.    … Expand

    Truly a breath of fresh air from all the other games i have played recently, brilliant performance by Sam Witwer, criminally underrated and one i enjoyed very much to platinum. Better than The Last of Us 1 and definitely 2.

    Most of the game mechanics are fine but driving the bike was a real pain, nevertheless you will enjoy ridding the rode and running over zombies or any other animal that you might find.

    No spoilers but from my perspective the game had anticlimactic ending, but play it and judge for yourself.

Gráficos muy bien logrados, ambiente muy bien hecho, personaje muy memorable, y NPC que no olvidas fácilmente como en muchos otros juegos... quizás alguna crítica es la duración tan larga para el desenlace de la historia, misiones secundarias quizás un poco repetitivas pero retadoras.

    I didn't buy Days Gone at launch day because of that but couple of months later during some sale.
    The game is great. I will buy Days Gone 2 for full price for sure. Excellent story, great graphics, great climat, great gameplay, movement, enviroment, crafting and looting. Driving motorbike was cool.
    The only issue I had was FPS drop sometimes during motorbike rides - but I didn't care becasue game was so immersive.

    For me days gone was one of my best games of ps4. It was really addicting and enjoyable. Maybe in lunch days it has some technical issues and bugs but bend studios do a very job in supporting game and release updates and patches. I do not undrestand this idiot sites who gave low scores but do not pay attention. You will enjoy days gone so much I promise you.

The scenery was definitely one of my favorite things about this game and I had fun just drifting around exploring the world.

    The story was average. The plot isn't very original and I only started feeling engaged about halfway through. When I reached the third camp I started getting into it, but the early stages of the game (narrative wise) felt lacking in direction, and the story also begins to drag towards the end too.

    I experienced a number of graphical glitches during my playthrough, such as textures not loading and frame rate drops. These may have been fixed by now. Not gamebreaking, but annoying.

    Gameplay was standard, nothing groundbreaking. Decent combat. I found the save system frustrating at times. You can only save your game while standing next to your bike - which isn't always convenient because your bike can run out of fuel, be broken, or is sometimes better off left behind when going into ambushes. Missions do feel a little repetitive, especially side missions.

    For a ps4 exclusive, I think the game could have been better. That being said, if you're a fan of the post-apocalyptic genre I'd say it's worth a shot.    … Expand

    Days Gone, with enough new gameplay mechanics and a fairly decent story hits almost all the right marks. The bugs and issues that were present at the launch were fixed almost immediately with a patch and none of them stop you from enjoying and getting immersed into the world that SIE Bend Studio has created. Definitely a must for me.

    Es un buen juego. No es la gran cosa, pero no te decepciona. Bastante entretenido eso si, por la gran cantidad de zombies en pantalla y la forma de moverse y matar. Tecnicamente es muy bueno. Su historia es decente.

    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.
