    Days gone junta todo lo bueno de un videojuego y hace que en todos momentos te diviertas con accion constante y una historia que te engancha y hace que siempre quieras saber mas y con una buena variedad de misiones y cosas por hacer

    Fasinating and frightening game.
    It so obvious that it has some bug problem but it do not affect the gameplay and story line. Nice story and motivative zombies. I like it.

    Amazing game.
    Worst game reviews (gamer websites) I’ve ever seen before.
    One of the best games I’ve ever played.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game is amazing, I feel many people who reviewed it negatively didn’t make it to the second half of the game which is where it picks up. Around 30 hours you begin to get bombarded with story elements and learn more about the freaks. Patience is rewarded with an amazing story, also make sure to continue playing post credits for a surprise. I played on a pro and ran into a few glitches nothing game breaking and this was post patches.… Expand

    The best game of the year. the story is great, the scenery is stunning, the hordes really scare, not to mention the motorcycle factor. Nothing could be better than riding a motorcycle at the end of the world. grade 1000

All I can say is "wow!". I had such a blast with this game and enjoyed every single minute, even with the few bugs that I encountered along the way. Not to be a fanboi (ok, I guess I am now that I've played it for 55+ hours and love it!) but this is one of those games that can easily be missed by many, especially given the critic reviews. I know others have said it but I have to agree on this: ignore those reviews and listen to other players, and see for yourself! This is the kind of game we've needed for sooooo long. I'm actually sad that I'm done with the story and cannot wait to see the DLC and then (hopefully) a sequel. Bend Studio, please don't take another 6 years to make Days Gone 2! I can't wait that long to see what happens next (no spoilers!!!). Seriously, if you are not sure about this game, just go for it! There's a LOT worse out there right now that received higher critic scores that did not deserve it in my opinion.

    I'd love to write more but I want to get back to the open world of Days Gone, doing more of the side missions (jobs?) and taking down some more hordes! Two thumbs up from me! 10/10 game which is just superb from start to finish!    … Expand

    If you love the horror genre or don’t like horror genre specifically zombies PLAY THIS GAME!! Ive played zombie games to be honest majority of them and I can honestly say I’ve never completed one.

Ive played zombie games to be honest majority of them and I can honestly say I’ve never completed one. I’ve found them boring and repetitive and I really am a wimp with horror genre I recently purchased a VR and was jumping at the shark encounter. So for me when I saw the that insane trailer running away from 100s of Freakers I instantly thought “sod that” but I thought I’ll try it out but in the back of my head I thought I would of gotten rid of it within 2 weeks but here I am still playing!! I still haven’t completed it but I’m many many hours in and I love it the freakers are huge some in size but in number which makes it challenging but not impossible. Deacon St John is a character I thought would be very uninteresting but I’m doing every side mission so I can learn more about his past and the combat is fun. Very fun. The ways you can take out a horde and how it encourages you to play stealthy it’s brilliant it’s creative but not to the degree of where your making a gun that shoots exploding ducks but I like that it makes it realistic! My biggest scare is the voice acting and the acting I general I was playing odyssey but I think if anyone has played that game they know how fun that is but dread a cut scene because of alexios’s horrible voice but this game is like a movie! I cannot rate this game enough! It’s fun and I guarantee you the story will have you at the edge of your seat and your jaw will be at your feet! This isn’t just a zombie or horror game this is a book! Been a long time since I played a game this detailed and story driven but it’s that good it’s drove me to go out of my way to make an account and write my very first review! Buy it. Enjoy it.… Expand

    I came here just to help the review numbers out in anyway I can, because this is easily my favorite open world/zombie game I've ever played.
    Does it have some flaws? Sure.
    Did it take a year or two of patches to reach its potential? Yes. Are we seeing a trend of how the games that actual back up their promises take longer to develop than publishers want them to? You betcha. This game    I came here just to help the review numbers out in anyway I can, because this is easily my favorite open world/zombie game I've ever played.

    This game needed that time to flourish, and my did it.
    They have created a living, breathing open world that never suffers from Ubisoft Syndrome. Everything fits, NPC's feel like they actually have their feet planted in the world, and the characters are flawed and human. Thank you so much for the experience, I hope so badly that this game gets a much deserved co-op sequel.    … Expand

    One of the most criminally underrated games of the last few years. Sam Witver deserves an award for his voice acting, the story (although it starts slow) quickly turns into a really heartfelt and epic journey that carried me through hours and hours of playtime, and the horde dynamics were legit awesome and strategizing how to take them down was a ton of fun.

    Im loving it!!! Im a big fan of survival open world games. There are a few minor bugs but i dont mind that, the hordes feel so good to kill. My dark souls skills are coming out with the rolling. Its a must have! But this is just my opinion.

    Don't listen to the so called game journalist reviews. This game it's a near masterpiece in my opinion. The game is very fun,exciting, terrifying, and beautiful all in one. It has a great story that will make you keep coming back for more and a huge open world with many fun things to do. I would rate this game a 8.5 to a 9.0 out of 10 but I'm giving it a 10 just to keep increasing the user score.

    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.
