Esperaba mas resulto ser un juego mas del monton estaría perfecto en un precio de lanzamiento de 30-40 euros pero como triple A no cumple con el estándar de calidad. Aparte es muy molesto tener que instalar mas de tres parches para corregir errores que no debieron existir en un principio. Expand

    I bought this game for the hordes, but the are rare killed all of the, early two areas have them but they are GROUPS then HORDES, and can be killed easily, Good weapons are unlocked pretty late where there is not much left around to kill B/Z you would already killed most of hordes and enemies.
    AND false advertising! THEY Removed options from the game where you are given a choice to kill

    ...it's okay.

    If you're desperate for a long, open-world, mission heavy game then by all means sink your time into this routine, sometimes buggy zombie ( freaker ) adventure. Voice acting's pretty good and it looks quite nice but the script's awful and the dull busy-work missions together with your fuel thirsty motorbike make this a rental or bargain buy at best.

The story is very forgettable. Also there are several survival mechanics that are just pure annying rather than fun. For example the bike runs out of fuel insanely quickly and you need fuel to fast travel. There are loading screens everywhere, even before and after cutscenes.

The story is so incoherent and the characters do so many things that are completely out of character that I couldn't force myself to like the story or any of the characters. Most of the game's runtime is spent going from place to place and doing fetch quests. This game tries way too hard to be an open world TLOU, and as a result it doesn't excel at being an open world game or a zombie game. Truly the first disappointing PS4 exclusive. Expand

    1. Подача сюжета. Очень спорная идея внести мысли Дикона по поводу произошедших событий в меню пройденых сюжетных линий. Я туда заглянул часу на 8 игры. Разговоры на байке опять же, которые можно случайно скипнуть воспользовавшись фасттревелом и быстро взяв следующее задание.
    2. Режиссура и постановка сцен. Некоторые сцены и диалоги поставлены очень странно. Похоже у разрабов не было в штате специалиста по "кинцу".
    3. Невозможность сразу, по нажатию кнопки посмотреть подобранный документ.
    4. Не слишком удобное меню оружия/предметов.
    5. Очень однообразные побочные квесты. Учитывая насколько их мало, хотелось бы больше разнообразия. Хотя это скорее к бюджету/срокам относится. Сюда же можно отнести квестовую линию с Тейлором - из нее грубо вырезали несколько квестов в которых Тейлор, очевидно, должен был стать другом Дикона. Из-за того что вырезали, эмоциональное отношение Дикона к происходящему, в конце квестовой линии, вообще не понятно.
    6. Сбор лута. ИМХО, но под конец, сбор пороха и керосина превратился в скучный фасттревел по точкам. Очень скучный, особенно с этими загрузками. Лучше бы дали закупаться расходниками в лагерях, на 3 уровне доверия.
    За пасхалку с "Гудзонским Ястребом" 5 балов кстати. Ржал как конь.

For example there is a Ripper that has some sort of backpack and I shot him 8 times with a high powered sniper rifle and he still kept firing. I know personally someone who was hit with a .308 sniper rifle round on his left shoulder and it ripped his entire arm off. Even if these Rippers are on PCP I still don't understand how any human can take 8 high powered rifle rounds to the head and body and still live. So they force you to be realistic while being unrealistic themselves. I understand about the concept of "bosses" in games however don't force us to be realistic then make the bosses so wildly unrealistic and highly inhumanly strong and deadly. I think I'll go back to God of War or Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Hey Days Gone people.... Easy level = easy Normal and Hard is for the stunts you're pulling with Easy mode. Expand

    Storywise it's more decent but the protagonist is the least agreeable character ever, you have no choices both in dialogs and in actions so you are just in for a ride with whatever choice the developers have decided for your character which breaks immersion and makes the whole story much less enjoyable.
    This is by far the worst PS4 exclusive ever from a software house that clearly should have sticked with making cheap mobile games.

    Basic PS4 is just too weak to run this game, and that is little odd because this is PS4 exclusive. They have made this game so long that they should know how much power PS4 has. Some mechanism are great and I like most of the story, but things that are bad, are just too bad.

    Days Gone - шлак и разочарование. Однако, здравствуйте.

    Обо мне: олдфаг, >30
    Все выше и ниже - субъективно и не претендует на истину в единственной инстанции.

    Люблю игры ( фильмы и сериалы - ходячие, сыны анархии) про зомби и байкеров. Project Zomboid, State of Decay, Dayz, Resident Evil - много часов было проведено в этих и других игрушках, так что Days Gone я ждал и даже был огорчен переносом игры с февраля на апрель. Купил по первой скидке, запустил дважды по полчаса, всё - такой опыт взаимодействия с этой игрой.

    Можно сказать "не вкатило" - бывают же хорошие игры, которые просто не нравятся исключительно по вкусам и предпочтениям. Days Gone - это другое, тут игра очень посредственная. Поехали.

    Главное:
    Герои и их диалоги - будто уровня гта3;
    Окружение - в игре нет "мира" в большом понимании, все мертвое и не живое;
    Механики - когда таким образом взаимодействуешь с предметами и объектами в сингловой игре 2019 года это дно.

    Итого:
    Этой игре место в 2011-2014 году. Может, так и должно было быть, но где то чуть не успели, потом GTA V, Last of Us, Assassins Creed и игра ушла в долгий ящик. Спустя пять лет достали, на спех подтянули графон и кинули этот шлак в релиз. И за full price.

    Замечания:
    Это апокалипсис - нет. Больше апокалипсиса в первой State of Decay. Здесь мир такой же, как в Warz 2011-2012.
    В этой игре есть мотоцикл - нет. Здесь столько же мотоцикла, сколько буханки в метро.

    Мысли:
    Кто то очень умный думает, что взяв проверенные ингредиенты (открытый мир, средство передвижения, зомби, шутер от 3го лица, апокалипсис) и скидав их в блендер можно сделать игру. Только когда ингредиенты стухли, на выходе получится продукт вряд ли пригодный для употребления.

    Благодарность:
    Спасибо тебе что дочитал) Спасибо игрожурам, которые высказали сомнения о качестве игры до релиза.

    зы
    Брать или не брать? Либо по скидке (уже было, я брал за 2к, будет еще) - либо диск с рук, либо диск в магазине и через неделю продавать сразу. Сорян - в этой игре ты не зависнешь не то что на пару дней, а даже на пару часов. Вот и думай, брать или не брать.

    This game feels like it is still in Alpha. It needs lots of updates and polishing. I hated how the guy moves and walks, even when you try to move joystick lightly. I hated the grabbing animations. I hated some of the fighting

    I dont usually write reviews, so bare with me on this one. I will try to express my thought below:
    This game feels like it is still in Alpha. It needs lots of updates and polishing. I hated how the guy moves and walks, even when you try to move joystick lightly. I hated the grabbing animations. I hated some of the fighting animations as well, from the camera point of view, not able to customize view distance or locking into a target during fighting. Sometimes you are just trowing close range blows to the air hoping you hit the enemy you cannt even see because of the camera point of view.
    Driving around in the motorcycle broke my immersion as well, when I was trying to drive quietly around the freakers infested world, but my loud motorcycle not only attracted a bunch of freakers but wolfs as well, and I was unable to get rid of them since it feels something is missing with the whole fighting on the bike plus camera turning mechanics. I had no choice but keep driving as fast as I could far away from I was intending to explore, where I finally was able to jump out of bike to see map, get disappointed and start thinking the only way to explore everything I missed is by foot and just ditch the bike forever.
    Also, there is no customization at the moment of the HUD, camera distance, no clothing or eating. You got to feed your bike with gas, but when you grab the gas tank and walk or run with it, it seems and feels you are walking with a balloon instead of a gas tank. They tried creating immersion by limiting the items your can carry, however, that immersion goal the developers had were poorly executed.
    I was forcing myself to overlook all of this and played the game regardless. The graphics are good, not the best, but it is acceptable. I got hooked on the story and searching for stuff and discovering collectibles.
    No game is perfect. I believe this game has a solid base foundation and good ideas, and for this I give it a 6.

    It is clear that most of the user reviews are by guys who dont agree with the score and just boost the user review section with 10s, blaming the Xbox and PC community for the low scores, without even finishing the game. Well im a PS4 gamer and i was expecting this game for 2 years so this is my honest opinion on this game.

Well im a PS4 gamer and i was expecting this game for 2 years so this is my honest opinion on this game.
    Days Gone was supposed to be that big, wow type of AAA game, but It happens to be the opposite. With all the buzz two years ago on E3, I was expecting this game with an enormous amount of joy. Alas - all in no avail.
    The story aside - this game has a lot of flaws.
    First and foremost - the game is baaaaaadly optimised... Frame rates drop at almost motion stop animation while you ride your bike.. Pretty much most of the time there is enormous amount of lag while driving(and sometimes on foot). There are a lot of bugs too !!!! - I ve been stuck in a wall not able to move, teleporting thru walls and fences and a lot of deaths followed cuz of these circus acts ive been a part of. Zombies flying around and teleporting from miles away is just the weather forecast obviously.
    Quests glitching and being stuck somewhere without spawning the npc for a quest is just a norm. I got 1 hour of videos made just with ridiculous glitches and failed renders, which are mostly of cars.
    Unbelievable stuff on this point ...Considering bike riding one of the better things in this game, its just nerve wrecking to ride your bike in 15 frames per sec... Two year teasing the game and they get it out so poorly optimised? Cmon now...
    Second - no seamless transition between cutscenes is like getting back at least 5 years in gaming. You do something and suddenly - black screen for a second or two for pretty much nothing.. It doesnt feel smooth and its not nicely done either.
    Third - fighting is pretty boring and repetitive after a while.
    Its not that much of a problem but small things stack one over another.
    Fourth - the AI is probably the dumbest in gaming since i dont remember.. I literally 'stealth' killed three idiots in a row one next to each other while the others were looking at me and they passed around me simply cuz i was 'sneaking' in a shallow bush.. While i was stabbing one of the dudes the other was pushing at me while saying stuff like : 'yo where he is , i lost him' , 'hey why dont you come out an talk i dont wanna hurt you' WHILE I WAS STABBING HIS GUY IN FRONT OF HIM MULTIPLE TIMES LOL. Everything is made pretty much like they just found out open world and this game will be the stepping stone of open world, while it is exactly the oposite - its years behind open world games..
    Fifth - what in the world is this thing with the flashlight for God's sake... His flashlight is in his pocket while the light is going around him with the crosshair... Bro wtf... Uncharted 1 was like 2007 and the flashlight there was pretty realistic - hangin at the chest while the light goes where the character is turned at the moment. But nah - lets make the flashlight like some theater light thats goes wherever you want while your character sits blank staring in the netherrealm.. I thougth it was some glitch or something for the first two minutes, and when i finally coped with this idiocy i was annoyed at least...
    Sixth - repetitiveness is just killing this game. Wont dwelve at it much but it really is awful enough.
    Final verdict - the game is a huge dissapointment and even the nice graphics and fine moCap cant compensate for the dullness of this game. It feels like the guys who made it are a little bit bihind in terms of game inovations and gameplay. Theres nothing new in it for an open world game. Even the fact that they named the zombies in the game with the cringy 'freakers' and thinking thats something new and cool talks alot about the guys that made this game and what to expect from their game... Cool bikes tho.

    Some basic problems are : Graphics could have used a little more polish, Very bad story writing, dull and empty world, constant frame dipping, micro hang, retarded and dumb AI, repetitive quests, All cool weapons are locked behind trust ratings and are unlocked late, No weapons customization, annoyingly limited inventory space, long and constant loading screens, Big Hordes are rare most of them are just groups.

    I really don't want to give a game such a bad rating. But I keep getting a bug that makes the game nearly unplayable.

    Aside from this, the game seems to be either coded or designed badly. A bunch of random graphical pop in and the constant and long loading screens.

    Not a well made game.

    I really wanted to like this game and stuck with it for many hours. But there is so much that is annoying about it, I ended up deleting it.

    If you are playing, first of all, make sure you invest in your bike first via the Copeland camp -- do not give anything big for trust to Tucker's camp or you will be blocked by a mission that requires a motorcycle upgrade for you to proceed. Great

    Other issues: The combat is unsatisfying and enemies are bullet sponges. Your motorcycle's gas tank is the size of a teacup and might as well have a gaping hole in it. Searching for gas isn't hard but it is a distraction and unfun. The world is charmless and flat -- there's no color or detail to make it feel real. The slavering and lip-smacking of the zombies makes everywhere you go sound like mealtime at an old folk's home -- they should sell earmuffs at the camps.

    Honestly, there is a gem of a game here but the gameplay just isn't working for me. I'm happy others like it but be warned.

    Well-acted, heartfelt story. Decent gameplay.

    Never cared much for the "open world" mechanics, but I didn't mind to endure them for the story. And the "fluff" side-missions actually go down smoothly and quickly. Most of them, at least.

    A great game and a breath of fresh air. I had a lot of fun traversing and exploring the world, taking out zombies and swarms as well as enjoying the beautiful graphics. The story and characters are also top notch, and at times, I even felt emotion.

    10/10 nearly perfect. I can hardly wait for the sequel!

    It is not a complete disaster, but not exactly anything notable either. "Open world" is practically blank and gameplay is practically linear and become boring after couple hours already. Sometimes I had feeling the developers had rather careless attitude and many gameplay details and mechanics choices look and feel rough and weird.

    I frankly don't think this game is underated, reviewers and game journalists in general, don't see with me that eye to eye, but this is a game that I can agree with their opinion quite a lot.

    I'm not sure about the state of Days Gone at release, all I know is that Days Gone isn't the marvelous game that a lot of people seemingly seem to think it is, it has some incredible moments, and others that are frankly quite mediocre, but for the most part, I would say that the game, at the very least when taking into consideration its story, doesn't work that well for the most part.

    The game is divided into three segments that involve generally speaking, doing the same things over, and over again, you're supposed to complete missions, and side missions, to increase your relationship with multiple encaments throghout the game, this is represented by a level and a meter that slowly increases as you complete missions, rescue hostages, or clear hordes (an activity that you can't really achieve up until the last couple of missions in the game).

    The biggest issue with Days Gone lies in artificial pandering, this freaking game needed a f***ing editor or something of the sort because frankly, the first few dozens of hours of the game could be cut easily, the first two encampents could've been removed from the story completely and you wouldn't be missing anything, by comparison the second encampent (the one from Crystal lake for reference sake) is the one moment where the story peaks, and I would say, the main core moment where the story takes a turn for the better, you meet friends, antagonists, there's a questioning on how the world is changing and affecting people's humanity around them, admitedly there are some missions in this part of the game that don't make much sense, some story arcs are completely forgotten after being introduced, and some characters are introduced, while others retired, without making that much sense, but generally speaking this is where the game really "shines" to put it in a way.

    On the other hand the game has this story arc across the whole experience which is Deacon (the main protagonists) long lost love, and his arduous journey in trying to encounter his wife, it's enticing, at first, but then after a while it becomes redundant, and frankly the presentation of Sarah (Deacon's wife) left a lot to be desired on my part, their relationship seems to hinge in cliches, and artificial interactions, that made me not care in the least about this aspect of Deacon's life, it wasn't until the end of the game when some of this actually made sense to me, and made me care in a way, the ending was a beautiful thing in my opinion, closing a lot of story arcs in a good way, albeit some in ridiculous over the top, nonsensical, idiotic ways, but for the most part as the credits rolled and I glared at Deacon driving across all of the landscapes I've visisted before, I felt a strange feeling of warmth inside of me.

    The voice acting also leaves a lot to be desired for the most part, specially because of Deacon, whenever Deacon gets angry, and throws a strange scream, or attempts at trying to be furious about something, ends up being more funny than real, just because of how over the top it is.

    The combat system and the gameplay for the most part are great, but I always got the feeling that combat systems, and the segments of interactivity in this game didn't last as long as they had to.

    I found myself in many, many circumstances, in which I would finish a camp in minutes, while other times I would finish missions in seconds, completing the objective, and then heading back the way I came.

    The gameplay is a mix between simple stealth elements, and gunfights, you get multiple weapons throughout the game with the issue being that most of them are difficult to compare one with the other, in order to try and figure out what are the best ones, and what are the worse ones.

    All weapons in the game have stats, and levels, that are supposed to serve as a reference as to which ones are good, and which ones are bad, but none of those two things really factor in for the most part, if anything is the other way around, some of the stats straight out lie to you in telling you some weapons are betters than others.

    The gameplay is good however for two reasons, there's a sense of unpredictability to both stealth and gunplay, you get this feeling like you never will know the outcome of every encounter, even if you're clearly winning.

    The other aspect is the brutality of the combat, the guns feel devastating, and powerful, while the stealth elements are brutal and raw in their presentation for the most part.

    Generally speaking I would say I had a lot of fun playing this game, I got in on a sale, I do not regret my purchase, but I also don't think is this marvelous experience everyone talks about.

    Sometimes the critics get it wrong and this game is definitely one of those times, thank goodness the fans got this one right though and it sold well. While this game does have a very slow start, it is chalked full of great and well written characters, genuinely touching moments and a fantastic protagonist. I actually cheered out loud at several moments in the game and teared up at the end. Deacon is a great protagonist who has some great one liners and absolute bad ass moments. Please Bend Game keep more “I am going to kill every last one of you” moments in the sequel – it made me feel like such a bad ass.

    The only thing keeping me from giving this game a perfect score is that I wish the side missions were a little more engaging.

    If you are a fan of long and story driven games that you can really sink your teeth into then play this game, you will love it. Also I loved upgrading my motorcycle – it was both fun and motivating.

    I got this game on sale, but I will pre-order the sequel without a second thought to support the franchise and studio. I want more Days Gone. Well done Bend Studios!

    It's like several people came up with different ideas and game design elements that don't work with each other at all, never talked with each other (was this developped during the pandemic?) but still put all of it in the game.

    Sony decided to shelf the IP altogether. I think that's a terrible idea.
    I don't agree that it should get a sequel either, or at least I don't think that should be the next step.
    It needs a remaster or a re-release, like a new edition in which they would fix all of its problems and everything that doesn't work.

    There are still some bugs left in 2021 on PS5 such as dropped items disappearing. But it has less bugs than a Beth game AND most bugs are FUN! Such as enemy's dropped weapon bouncing around after death and enemies getting stuck inside cars until you throw a rock on them LOL!

    It's good even in 30 fps but awesome in 60fps although it gets a bit too easy in 60fps so you should definitely play it on Hard II on PS5 or PC :)

    It's an extremely entertaining game and the Challenge Mode which got added after official reviews is quite good too! REMEMBER: The perks you get in Challenges move over to Main Game! Something I learnt on my second playthrough.

    Beware of the audio settings on PS5 though. Maybe set the 3D audio to off to not get reduced aduio quality. DG has surround settings for headphones in game menu. Use that instead. But its hard to get goods settings and you might get fooled over hearing enemy sounds sounding close although they are far away. Play with the settings!

    Better than most people give it credit for. Many have passed off on this game saying, it's not as good as last of us. Not all zombie games need to be like last of us to be good.

Gameplay is decent enough. Acting is also good though some of the dialogue may come off as cheesy to some people, but I find it charming.
    Overall, a decent game, worth a try

    What a let down, seems it like could have been a wonderful game, as of writing this Jan 2020 there's alot of bugs I've come across most notible is your bike appearing on the map in the wrong place, not there when you goto get it can't retrieve it when you eventually find it by hovering aimlessly over the map. Then a long long walk home or anywhere to get your bike some big issues I justWhat a let down, seems it like could have been a wonderful game, as of writing this Jan 2020 there's alot of bugs I've come across most notible is your bike appearing on the map in the wrong place, not there when you goto get it can't retrieve it when you eventually find it by hovering aimlessly over the map. Then a long long walk home or anywhere to get your bike some big issues I just can't get my head around why are they still in this game. So basically broken. I'd skip it if I was you. Expand

    It's almost The Last of Us - the open-world game. The writing, characters and dialogue just aren't quite up to Naughty Dog standards. The generic quest design lets the game down a bit, but other than that it's a very enjoyable and atmospheric open-world game. Bike and combat mechanics work well and the zombie hordes are intimidating. The hardcore challenge mode is another outstanding feature.

    I played Days Gone in 2019 and thought it was an above average game that I liked.
    However, I experienced a low frame rate often and encountered a number of bugs.

    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.
