Days Gone

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Been playing this for a while and really enjoying it.

Anyone else on it?

I downloaded it last November as it's part of the PS+ collection when I got my PS5. Still sitting there waiting to start. Apparently a bit of a slow burner?

I found it to be like a lot like Red dead redemption but in a zombie apocalypse

 

[Flat Eric]

I'll have to check this out. Didn't know it existed

 

[Jack!]

I loved this game, it's not incredible or anything, but it's really solid and once you get good at taking out hordes it's really fun; story ain't bad either.

Other than Red dead it’s one of the only games I’ve ever really got fully into

 

[Willo40]

Watched my brother on it, but i only had an Xbox, he's got a PS5 now so i have got his PS4 it's on my list to play when i finish The Last of Us 2.

 

[Al_G]

Just ordered this…Looking forward to playing it.

 

[Flat Eric]

I watched some gameplay footage today on YouTube. Looks very good

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

I only downloaded it because it was free on the PlayStation plus thing I subscribe too. It’s very very good.

 

[Clio_fool]

Yep I played it from ps+ too and really enjoyed it. So much so that after finishing the story I went back in to kill all the hoards.

 

[Cub.]

Is it all third person, or does it go to first person when you aim?

 

[Clio_fool]

All 3rd.

 

[Al_G]

I completed the main story yesterday. Great game and hugely under-rated.

In all the years of playing I’ve never come across such a buggy game though. It’s so bad it’s comical.

 

[Geddes]

I’ll have to check this out too, it’s caught my eye a few times but haven’t installed it yet on the PS5

 

[Willo40]

Been playing this on the PS5, really enjoying it, only a few hours in.

I finished it the main story and most of the optional tasks…60 hours spent.

It’s a long game.

I've nearly finished the new dlc for Kingdoms of Amalur and I'm over 180 hours in. That's a long game 😄.

Holy thread bump, but I'm about 10 hours into this on Steam Deck. Historical reviews rated it poorly, I'm liturgist to understand why as I'm finding it fantastic. The story gripped me straight away, the atmosphere, the fear when you're looting a house and hear a freaker, the camp stories and missions, clearing out nests, everything seems well written and thought out.



Just rescued the girl from the house who was waiting for her mum, did not expect to have to defeat a load of maraurders, then a massive bear, then some randoms in the tunnel, honestly thought it would never end but managed to get her back to camp.

Superb game that

 

[Clart]

i played it right after TLOU 1 & 2 and didn't take it it as well.

Thought the controls and combat where really clunky

 

[STICKER TWONK]

This game is breathtaking, I'm am amazed at the mixed reviews, one of the best games I've ever played. Last week I had the ride up to Lost Lake with Boozer, when that music kicks in, I felt emotion like these were real people, hit me in the feels, even thought to myself I need to get a grip these aren't real people.

 

[Clio_fool]

Yeah it's a great game and such a ahme they didn't do a second one. Faced a hoard yet? That will get the adrenaline pumping.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Not yet, I've just scouted out the hoard going into the cave, bit where you take Iron Mike out with you and then come up with the TNT plan. Not sure I'm keen on facing any hoards yet, got some decent weapons though.

 

[Willo40]

i don't think i have ever sweated playing a game as much as i did facing hoards on this....people on youtube make it look easy, it's f**king terrifying....

Brilliant game though.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Did a mission for Lost Lake, finding some dude who was in the Sawmill, Rikki radios to warn there's a hoard there but f**k me, I was not expecting it to be so intense! First hoard I've encountered, chased after that dude, started firing shots at him without realising the hoard was in the barn next to me. I hear the hoards screams, panic, run, reload and turn around to see hundreds of them, tried shooting and throwing Molotov, slows them a bit but they just keep coming and kill me.

Next time, did the mission without alerting the hoard, got back to my bike, went back to the hoard and taunted them into chasing me on the bike, then gunned the bike out of there no idea how you're supposed to defeat them, assume I need to get some better weapons!

 

[Clio_fool]

There's loads of explosives and traps you can set off in the sawmill to take some of them out with. Not that you'll notice any of that while being chased by all those buggers.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Skizzo, you absolute scumbag, knew he was scum but wasn't expecting that!!!! Why the hell was I wincing at the blow torch on Deacon bit, why, it's just a bloody game!!!

 

[Willo40]

i am pretty sure you get to a point were you have to face and kill a hoard, i did a few, the thing to do is plan a route, so see where the hoard is, and then look around, as @Clio_fool says their are plenty of explosives nearby, but it can be hard focusing on them when your being chased by 800 zombies...

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Dunno whether I need to spoiler or not...

Made it to Wizard Island, which for those who have played through, know it's massively significant! Did a mission for O-Brien in the cave with the Reacher, then the Horde that comes, took a fair few attempts that, the light of a torch only while fighting a horde was proper jumpy!

Not sure whether I'm nearing the end, I'm 40 ish hours in, feels like I'm approaching some sort of conclusion.

Been a while since i played this, but i think your pretty near the end to be honest.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Just reached the end of the main story, working through horde clearing now, I have read there's another ending if you continue playing though involving O-Brien?

 

[Dafthead]

Finished this last night, was put off for a while by IGN's review, but I absolutely loved every minute, fantastic game.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

I don't get IGN's review, it seems unrelated to the game I've played, it's a masterpiece.
