    There are no words except one: WOW!.
    This game is addictive and also very exciting the characters are well done, the story is interesting, the graphics are not beautiful but it doesn't matter.
    If you are curious and you want a new game to try I recommend you Days Gone.

    Its a pretty good game, a good time, worth playing through, Not amazing or great in any area, but just a solid well made product.
    Its not a 5/10.
    Its better than a 7/10, the game has plenty of content to be just a 7/10.
    To many people (including games Urnalist) hating on this game even for months before the game came out.

    Days gone... is a great game, but I think it should have come out earlier. Reason for this opinion is that everyone is waiting for Last of Us Part 2 and these games are pretty similar in concept.

Technically the game could be Better, but it's not bad or even so buggy as some people seem to say, for me only few glitches have occured while riding the bike and few zombies getting stuck in environment. I love open world games especially with zombies so it gives me a good play through and will recommend it to anyone into similar games and wanting to have something to do before waiting TLOU2 to come out, strong 8/10 Expand

    Карта игры немалая, есть даже разделение на биомы по погодным условиям и растительности.

    Звук от выстрелов очень грузный и реалистичный с приятной отдачей. Мотоцикл радует приятной физикой. Его нужно заправлять, чинить и улучшать. С людьми расправляться не интересно ввиду их непреодолимой тупости, слепоты и глухоты :( Орды - новый уровнь геймдева! Нежити порой далеко за сотню

    Звук от выстрелов очень грузный и реалистичный с приятной отдачей.

    Мотоцикл радует приятной физикой.
    Его нужно заправлять, чинить и улучшать.

    С людьми расправляться не интересно ввиду их непреодолимой тупости, слепоты и глухоты :(

    Орды - новый уровнь геймдева!
    Нежити порой далеко за сотню особей, обрабатываемых движком одновременно, отчего плойка и готовится к взлёту в стратосферу, судя по звуку.

    Игра проседала до 20 кадров на фатке на релизе, чуть позже 30 фпс я созерцал только в поселениях, пещерах и пустых дорогах, но стоит вблизи появиться орде, так сразу начинались проседания, порой даже до 15 кадров в особо нагруженных сценах с обилием взрывов.

    Всего в игре есть лишь несколько грамотно проработанных сюжетных локаций, на которых интересно расправляться с толпой гнилушников, а все остальные шатаются просто по полям и дорогам, из-за чего уничтожать их уже на середине игры становится не интересно и хочется просто зачистить территорию для галочки.

    Минусы:
    * Фонарик, закреплённый на груди главного героя живёт своей жизнью отдельно от персонажа и вращается в любую сторону при повороте камеры;
    * Колёса на мотоцикле начинают крутиться раньше того, как он тронется с места, если сдаёшь задним ходом;
    * Границы карты как в нулевых состоят из невидимых стен, в которые можно въехать и попасть в дтп!

    История интересная, но квесты порой настолько идиотские, что нормально такое принимать сможет только ребёнок и этот идиотизм усиливается одними из самых нелепых диалогов в видеоиграх, в которые я играл!

    Итог:
    * Сюжет и персонажи не раздражают, не смотря на нелепые ситуации;
    * Интересный открытый мир для исследования;
    * Графика технологична, настолько насколько это возможно в опенворлдах на текущем поколении консолей;
    * Работа художников варьируется от очень хорошей до великолепной;
    * Геймплей неплохо проработан и почти все элементы сделаны прямыми руками;
    * Фича с ордами вполне тянет на некст ген;
    * Хорошая русская озвучка;
    * Посредственная, но не бесящая музыка;
    * Почти удобное управление;
    * И конечно же новизна - это не очередной сиквел или приквел чего-либо, а абсолютно новая игра!

    Вывод: игра получилась добротная, в которую я советую поиграть всем обладателем четвёркой плойки, но она не настолько крута, чтобы ради неё покупать консоль. Для эксклюзива производительность просто отвратительная, но это новый интересный тайтл, обладающий нетривиальными геймдизайнерскими решениями, способный увлечь вас минимум на 50 часов, а то и на 100+, если вы решите замахнуться на платину.

    Моя оценка 8 из 10 с большой натяжкой, которую могу обосновать новизной, нетривиальностью и некой общей душевностью ;)

I would have given the game a 10 if there was some kind of decision based storyline. Expand

    Having a blast with this game, It’s not a masterpiece but a solid Easy8.
    Deacon is a total badass and the games world is beautiful!
    The games soundtrack and audio is top notch and the boom of shotguns and echo of a rifle crack in the woods is deeply pleasing.

    So fire up HDR and use your best audio setup and enjoy the experience.

    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.

    Não achei Days Gone um jogo que posso falar que é um dos melhores já feito, mas de forma alguma é um game ruim. Seus gráficos, os personagens, a gameplay e sua narrativa são muito boas. O único defeito que eu me incomodei são os Loadings demorados; tirando isso, achei o exclusivo da Sony excelente. Mas realmente, o que peca é a falta de originalidade.

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. Del resto me encantó, y por cierto antes de terminar me encantó la banda sonora incluso me extraña ya que tranquilamente podría ser nominada a mejor banda sonora en los game awards. Expand

    Lo bueno es que es muy entretenido, explorar el mundo en busca de gasolina para tu moto, pelear contra los freakers en cualquier momento, la gran cantidad de misiones secundarias y primarias es increíble. El crafteo es muy intuitivo. Crear bombas molotov cuando peleas con una horda mientras ves como poco a poco te quedas sin recursos y tienes que decidir si huyes o peleas hasta el final es lo mejor que ofrece el juego.
    Una lastima, pudo ser mejor de cuidarse más el aspecto técnico. Yo le pongo un 8.

There is definitely some improvement needed in the gunplay but it's not terrible.

    While I did enjoy my time with this game and have given it a high rating, I unfortunately can't recommend it at full price simply due to the still present technical issues that unfortunately will never be patched. These include somewhat aggressive pop-in, constant lag issues when the game is struggling to stream assets into frame, which as a result slows everything down to a crawl and the games controls become largely unresponsive, and still present some cutscene audio and video syncing issues that does largely detract from immersion.

    This game is definitely worth buying at around half price still at the time of writing this review but I wouldn't buy it at any higher price than 50% off unless you are really lacking some engaging story driven single player games to play. For now I would suggest buying Dying Light for your zombie/story fix until this games price drops.

    After Dying Light and dead Island I needed a break from the undead but I'm having a blast with this game, a few graphical glitches but nothing we all have not dealt with before. So glad this came out 3 days after Mortal Kombat SJW its washing the taste of that dumpster fire out of my mouth nicely. Definitely worth a buy.

The gameplay is average I’d say, gunplay is a little awkward to get used to, but there are skills to help with that, riding the bike at the beginning is not as fun as you’d think it would be, but there are upgrades you can purchase that help with that as well. My biggest problem with the game is the survivor wheel, it is very inaccurate and if you do not select the item you intended to, it will probably cause you to die. There are some frame drops as I’m playing, but I haven’t experienced any bugs. The AI is kind of lacking for what you would expect with all of the amazing games we have. There were several times when I was right in front of an enemy and they wouldn’t move, get into cover nor shoot me. The missions are fairly repetitive, but many open world games are like that (Soider-Man And Horizon Zero Dawn) With all of that said, there are many good things about the game as well. As I said before the story draws you in, the way you can utilize the world around you to destroy hordes is incredible, you can even use the horde as a weapon against your enemies. And amongst all of the repetitive missions and side quests are random encounters, being ambushed by marauders, encountering a random horde or being pulled off you bike by a runner, it all makes the world seem very dangerous and makes you nervous to be out in it. All in all I think it’s a good game and in a few patches once the frame drops and bugs are fixed it can be a truly solid game. 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.
