I like the cutscenes and the story they are telling and the quality is very good. There is alot of dept in Days Gone for gameplay, skills, gear and such. I normally like to rush in games but in this game i like to play very stealthy most of the times and slow. I think it's great and for me it's a 9. In the end it's something i daily want to do and play and i enjoy every minute of it. Mostly when i think i've played enough i can't stop right away because it's alot of fun. Great Game… Expand

    Absolutely loving this game the graphics, weather system and voice acting are pretty good. One thing i really don't like is the transition to cut scenes game feels like a Last of Us meets Far Cry

    This game is super buggy. There is cars that that is not fully generated, freakers that just disappears faster than Houdini, and the sound just goes out.

I found that I have to turn off the game and restart the very long times to get my sound back. If your PS4 is not connected run from this game ASAP. Do not buy. For everyone else... Get ready for some awesome patches. Yes the game should have been delayed again, but we all know the LAST OF 2 is coming out this fall and Days Gone will not have a chance in hell of making any sales once that happens. So Bend Studio knew they couldn't delay the game again. They knew gamers were going to be very upset about these CRAZY bugs. So they announced early on they were giving out free DLC and challenges in the Summer and have all bug fixes. So we ALL WIN!!!

    The story is okay. It's not bad. The character animations are amazing. You can see the real life actors performance come right through the characters. The only problem is that we heard this story already through other games and movies too many times, but the same can be said for the Marvel movies. Even with this point it doesn't change how awesome those movie LOOK. This is an ACTION ADVENTURE GAME that is suspenseful at times. I tried to get off this game after an hour of playing but I felt like I was under the games spell and could not but the game down. I played for over 10 hours before I could put the stick (Dual Shock 4) down.

    Yes even with the bugs I really couldn't stop playing. I am a very seasoned gamer. I play ALL GAMES. I love how their are elements of so many other games in this one game. There is the Last of Us, Uncharted, GTA5, Tomb Raider, Need For Speed, Starve, Flower, Mortal Kombat, and more. This game takes a lot of other games and puts them in a one stop destination. Sneaking around and melee attacking freakers are so satisfying. I love how I can take any weapon in the game and use them against NPCs. Managing the bike is adds an additional layer to the game where it feels like its own character in the game. It too can be upgraded and yes there is NAS.

    Days Gone has a buffet of glitches, but not even that could stop me from having a great time. They are giving us free DLC and challenges. This is a MUST HAVE.

    And one more thing. This game does take advantage of the Sony's Platinum Headset with 3D sound. Hearing the hordes below you is so creepy. It really puts the game on a whole new level.    … Expand

    Days Gone teve um grande downgrade em comparação aos trailers e veio como um jogo incompleto, digo isso pois o jogo tem quedas constantes de fps (algumas vezes chegando a travar a imagem).

O jogo tem muitos bugs, a IA não é muito inteligente (e quando digo isso eu quero dizer que eles chegam a ser o oposto de inteligentes), a dublagem em vários momentos é atrasada e você junta isso com as várias horas de "gameplay" onde você tem que ficar fazendo várias entregas com sua moto de um lado do mapa até o outro e vendo várias CGs (que eu gosto e não vejo problema nisso), você tem alguns momentos de ação mas o jogo fica mais legal lá pro final.
    Days Gone recicla vários elementos de outros jogos da Sony e não inova muito. As hordas de zumbi demoram aparecer no jogo mas apresentam um bom desafio, infelizmente o jogo tem as constantes quedas de fps e isso pra mim estragou muito a gameplay.

    A minha nota baixa em relação ao Days Gone se dá pois o jogo tinha um hype enorme mas não respondeu as expectativas.    … Expand

    This is no masterpiece, not every game is. But it is a solid fun and enjoyable game, don't listen to people calling this game bad just cause it isn't a straight 10.

    I personally think that there is plenty of enjoyment to be had here, the story is interesting and the gameplay is unique and enjoyable.

    Definitely worth your money, just don't go in expecting to blown away.

    Well done game, very fun. A good open world and good story. Dunno if the reviewers from IGN and another websites have been playing the same game that we are (users) but i bet they haven’t. If you’re in doubt, give it a try and judge for yourself.

    Days Gone is a mix of all the good things from other open world games. You can tell that the devs have poured their heart and soul into the game from all aspects which includes the core gameplay, graphics and audio. No other game has so much attention to detail when it comes to the sound effects.

    I genuinely feel bad for Sony Bend Studio. They've created something here that's fun to play, in-depth and an open world game with a story worth investing in. Is it perfect? No, is it even a 9/10? No, but it's easily an 8. I've not had this much fun on an open world game for a very very long time, which says alot.

    Great game excellent story and some good adrenalin panicking moments fleeing from hordes. Graphics are beautiful then the controls are fine they made them feel like you are heavy which is little more realistic. There are few mynute bugs but sure they'l be fixed soon. Bend studios who not made main console game in 10 years my hats off to you. In conclusion a fantastic game overall

TLOU meets Uncharted with full inspiration from Sons of Anarchy, explore the broken roads secure Nero checkpoints and take out hordes of FREEKERS (not zombies) lol. I strongly recommend this game to anybody who owns a Ps4 right now. Its one hell of a RIDE...… Expand

    First time review ever on meta critic, had to say something due to the harsh reviews Days Gone is getting. For me Days Gone is an open world version of the Last of Us and that game is probably the best game I've ever played. Days Gone isn't quite at that level but it's a great game and I'm loving it so far. No way does it deserve 0 out of 10. That's all I needed to say.

    I don't know why Sony exclusives focus too much on cinematics and voice acting when core elements such as gameplay and replay value are being heavily ignored. It happens a lot with Sony exclusives. And funny thing the cinematics and voice acting were laughable in this game, also lip sycing is horrible.

    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.
