    Очень хорошо сделана езда на байке, на нём кататься одно удовольствие, а сюжет интересный и трогательный, орды реализованы крайне внушительно, вообщем хочу поддержать этот проект, он удачный.

    An open world, an analogue of a zombie apocalypse with its analogue of zombies - freaks, beautiful nature, charismatic characters and a great story.

    Upon learning that the former exclusive will be ported to the PC, and even in the best, progressive and Orthodox store - Steam, I was incredibly happy.

    I played a little and formed the first impression - the presentation, the richness of the picture, the gameplay - everything is up to par.

    I would also like to note the quality of the port on the PC - the port turned out to be excellent, in 4k the game produces stable 60 frames per second at high.

    For fans of the genre and good stories - a must have to buy.

    I didn’t expect anything from it, which is why it was doubly pleasant to get a good-hearted and cool game. Got platinum, want a sequel

    As much as I dislike zombie stories, I loved this game just as much! Аnd at the end a bold hint at the continuation of the story, so let's release Days Gone 2 pls;)

This to me can be summed up in a phrase.. Red dead redemption 2: the walking dead..
    I feel reviewers didn't enjoy the game because this game, similar to red dead, ask you to slow down.. Stop, think about your next steps. Rather than a quick checkbox system you can fast travel to and complete ubisoft style like a zombie (no pun intended because they are freakers).. If you liked red dead and the slowness of it, you will like this. Fueling the bike can be a shore at first but it has also brought me one of the most exciting dynamic unscripted events in a game.. in an instance I was traveling and I ran out of petrol near a overrun town and had to sneak through buildings and freakers just to find a petrol canister, I was weak and knew I couldn't face that many freakers head on, so the fear of being spotted while looking for petrol gave me an unexpected thrill I haven't yet had in any other video game that wasn't intentionally scripted.. Alot of walking dead vibes.. I won't even talk about the weather system.. It is the best by a long margin in a video game.. The way snow gathers on the floor after a clear sunny day.. I didn't even know that was possible..

    Although it's an 'open world' game, the narrative of Days Gone it's quite inmersive and fully personal.

    Where other games crashes, here it makes quite a improvent. And such quite a great improvent, I must say! The graphics, while great, lacks of some little details on the landscape and some plot important things. Even son, the music is great, filling the player with emotion, going through rage, happiness and sadness, all in one game. The only thing a little bit buggying is the gameplay: has a little bit of bugs and glitches, adding it up to a rough and hard-slow movement from the character we play. But, it's part of being the most realistic thing possible. I mean, if you were in a world with so much bands, chaos and zombies of all kind, you wouldn't be a sprinter or an experienced shooter, right? Well, here, the main character has shooting skills, yeah, but it is as slow and difficult to move around, just like Joel did in the first The Last of Us, for example. But even then, that adds a realistic point of view for the character development and gameplay, which makes this game even better.
    If you are not into survival horror games with just one narrative and scenery, going lineal, this is a kind of game for you: open world, survival horror and adventure, full with a great scenario, well-developed graphics and story and while it has a few glitches, they are so low, that you wouldn't even notice them.

    1. Boring open-world - False. Days Gone open-world has many interesting places to visit, with different atmosphere, a lot big buildings to explore, underground bunkers and more. If Days Gone open-world is boring, so is Red Dead Redemption 2's open-world and everyone knows that's not true. 2. Bad chracters / bad writing

    2. Bad chracters / bad writing / bad story - Extremely false.
    This game has about million times better characters and writing than last of us 2 could even dream of. It's not Red Dead Redemption 2 level, but for example, i found writing in this game better than in Alan Wake and i like Alan Wake btw. Characters are very much relatable, likable and realistic, unlike characters in last of us 2.

    3. This has done 100 times before / another zombie game - False.
    Days Gone is best open-world zombie game. There have been only few decent attempts for open-world zombie game before and most of them are just meh. Days Gone does it better than any previous try. So i want to ask, how has it been done 100 times before? In what universe? I bet people who say that it has been done 100 times before would have hard time to even name 100 video games, let alone 100 zombie games.

    There's so much detail in this game. Different locations, countless of buildings you can enter (i saw someone commenting they look too similar inside, i disagree, imo they looks just different enough). That city area is really cool, well designed. Then there's some cool things you can discover, but i can't say what, because it would be spoilers obviously.

    Like i just don't understand some negativity toward this game. It just doesn't make sense. Voice acting is really good, writing is solid, to my surprise it's actually really natural, not cringe or forced like some other recent games.

    I would highly recommend trying it, if you don't mind long story, bikes and zombies.

The starry skies blew my mindaway when I first saw it. And...I am not music guru but this game has arguable the best ever music throughout the entire game. It was not just songs and tracks added on repeat. I felt music was an inseparable part of the game invoking feelings not only during the key moments of the storyline but also adding the the game unique atmosphere.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра шикарная! Сюжет отличный, это атмосферное выживание с зомби, где вы как байкер, в прошлом, катаетесь на байке от сюжетной точки до другой сюжетной точки , постоянно заглядывая в лагеря выживших, попутно занимаясь крафтом различных аптечек, сывороток и метательных предметов. Оружие продаётся в лагерях, там же можно продать уши с убитых вами зомби (фриков) и с других заражённых существ, а также можно продавать кожу животных. В Игре игре присутствует система прокачки способностей, тоесть различные бонусы в игре: способность носить с собой больше предметов для крафта, метательного оружия, а также болтов, нужных для починки вашего байка и для создания других предметов;
    способность получать больше тушек с убитых животных.
    Сначала вы боитесь убивать зомби (фриков), но подбираясь всё ближе и ближе к концу игры вы чувствуете себя настоящим богом в мире полном ходящих трупов и больших ходящих трупов (громил). Также в игре присутствует множество заражённых животных, а именно: крикуны (заражённые вороны), клыкачи (заражённые волки) и шатуны (заражённые медведи, одни из самых сильных заражённых животных, превосходящих свою не заражённую версию, на уровне громил, если не выше).
    Самая страшная вещь для новичков или даже для тех кто почти прошёл игру - это орда (фриков). У того кто скоро пройдет игру (я к тому моменту как появилась эта миссия, за два дня прошёл игру, так что для меня это миссия была очень близко к концу игры) появилась орда по сюжету, которую нельзя пропустить, а боялся он орд, потому что до этого он вообще не приближался к этим ордам и боялся их также как в начале игры (так было со мной, как вы понимаете). Но постепенно, оттачивая навык, я убил все орды на карте(после прохождения игры они показываются).
    Эта игра замечательна, ведь даже когда я её прошел я продолжал играть и получал огромное удовольствие от получения ачивок в игре, которые после прохождения получить гораздо легче.
    Я советую всем пройти эту игру (я прошёл её на средней сложности),
    ведь эта игра подарит вам незабываемые впечатления и эмоции, во время прохождения, хоть она и большая, пройдёте вы её быстро (ну это по сравнению с другими играми)! Желаю всем познать это удовольствие, всем хорошего настроения и с новым годом (у меня сейчас новый год).
    P.s. Буду проходить игру на "новой игре +", на сложности выживание 2 (самой сложной), пожелайте мне удачи ;))

    This game was amazing. A really great and emotional story. These assessments are unfair, I can understand personal tastes, but in this way the game is killed. I think this franchise still has a lot to offer. Moreover, the game ends with the base to create a sequel. I hope Sony changes its mind about the future of the series

    If Sony bosses have any brains they'll keep this game going, it's the best game ever.

    It's the first time I've completed a game without getting bored for even a minute, and I was sad when it was over.

    Now I'm waiting for some time to play again

    Mediocre game. The story is poorly written as the focus of the devs was probably more on politics than on making a fun game.

    The weapons tho are very bizarre, you'll find ww2 smgs performing better than modern assault rifles. They inculed a Glock 34 ONLY in the shop's table, BUT YOU CAN'T BUY IT.. Why tease the player with guns that appear in the shop yet can't be bought? Was it that complicated to add that pistol to the game? The protagonist also is very annoying as he speaks every 2 seconds with a weird voice( as if he's super anxious or drunk) But yeah, slaughtering hordes of zombies is fun tho.

I am playing on PS4 Pro and there was one data streaming freeze for about 4 seconds when approaching the 1st camp with bike at high speed. So the game was loading in assets. Happens with a lot of games. The story is interesting, it is not as good as Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Last of Us, but it does have value. World is impressive and fun to explore, zombies are terrifying to encounter. AI is not as dumb as some of the reviews say, I think it is a perfect line between realistic and fun.

    In general this game may not feel super authentic, because it is not. It feels like it is borrowing the best parts from other games in the market. I think they combined Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Red Dead Redemption, The Last of Us into one game and it works great. It is not magical game, but what they achieved here is a really decent game.

    7.2 for this game is underwhelming in my opinion. I think it stands between 8 and 8.5 on the score table and I have had lots of fun with it.

    I am very happy my friend told me to ignore these stupid critic reviews and get it on day one which I did and I have no regrets!

Going into it, I thought Deacon was going to be super generic, and lame, but he's actually an interesting character. I expected to hate him!

    The day & night system is quite good. Night time seems more dangerous, to the extent where you feel like watching the clock, so you don't get caught too far away from a safehouse in the dark. It's not "Dying Light" night time levels of dangerous, but its definitely harder to move around and loot places.

    The combat is decent, I thought the aiming was going to be really janky, but it turns out the pistol thats in most review/gameplay videos is just a piss poor weapon (I found a rifle thats much easier to aim with, tapping the fire button). It took a while to get used to the motorbike controls, but it gets easier. I really like having to look after the bike, and trying to upgrade it.

    One thing I will say is that raising the different camp trust levels feels a liiiiitle bit on the "grindy" side, but getting a new piece of equipment usually feels rewarding. The story so far is decent, it's not going to change your life, but Deacon is likeable so you'll stay interested. Full disclosure; I'm a big fan of The Forest, Dying Light, Last Of Us, and even State of Decay on the 360, so if your not sick of the Zombie/Survival genre, and you like those games too, then I'd recommend you try Days Gone!

    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.

I don't write many of these reviews but when a game has me addicted like this I have to make a comment. A game must be something special if it makes me want to play all day long and not go to work! Not even Red Dead 2 or God of War did that for me! It is so sad that these so called games journalists have brought the aggregate score down with pathetic and nit picky reviews.

    While it is not a perfect game and could be improved in some areas such as adding weapons mods and outfit choices, more varied missions etc the game is still an absolute blast to play and experience. I've have not had this much fun with a game since maybe Dying Light. Taking on a horde of 300 freakers at the dead of night in the pouring rain is just so exhilarating! The weather effects are drop dead amazing and are probably the best I have ever seen on a console title. It really immerses you into the experience. This is a triumph in itself for Bend Studios so I really commend them on this fact alone.

    The story may not be the most original and creative but it is certainly very interesting and heart felt. It has kept me interested all the way through so far and after 20+ hours or so you really do start to care about these characters. They are human which means they are both good and bad and make both good and bad decisions. These are normal everyday people and while yes some are stereotypical those stereotypes do in fact exist en masse in this world (ie red neck bible thumpers etc).

    What really saddens me though about these low scores is that they seem to be from these ultra left wing SJW types with political agendas. There is little that makes me madder than reading that these morons had issues with Deacon being too white and too gruff etc having gone over the story with the political correctness comb and pulled out bits they found offensive to their ultra sensitive natures. I have little to comment about these comments from these people other than the fact that they are so pathetic they need no further comment and that's that.

    I am glad to see though that the overwhelming majority of the gamer community are supporting this fabulous game and I just hope that Sony Bend Studios takes encouragement by this and continues to support and add content and sequels etc.

    Do yourself a favor and pick up this gem I don't think you will regret it if you stick with it and give it the time it deserves.

    This title should not get any scores lower than 7-9 out of 10 but my current score is clearly an 8.5 or 9 as no title is perfect but this one is quite close!

    Highly recommended for those who love open world action/adventure zombie apocalypse themed games or survival games in general.

    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.
