I went in with tempered expectations, and those expectations were exceeded. I did not feel any need to compare the two, and I believe that my experience was better for it. The comparison to The Last of Us might not have been a fair one, but it is the one that I saw made most often.
The gameplay wasn’t as tight, the story was nowhere near as breathtaking, the characters were not as memorable (although Sam Witwer is fantastic as Deacon). While The Last of Us was an absolute masterpiece that I believe has forever changed the medium, and shown just how much depth a video game story can convey, Days Gone was just a good, fun game. I know quite a few people went in expecting an experience more akin to the other big PlayStation exclusive zombie apocalypse game, The Last of Us. In practice, Days Gone managed to deliver an intense experience that mostly lived up to the hype and promise.Īll of the elements of a smash hit were there, but the overall reception was lukewarm to say the least. One of the biggest talking points prior to the game’s release was the hordes of attacking freakers that were shown in all of the trailers. The zombies in Days Gone are called “freakers”, and they are the extremely fast and aggressive “Dawn of the Dead” type zombies, and they attack in packs. You learn early on that there is a possibility that his wife actually survived, which sends Deacon on a hunt to find her. John, a former outlaw biker turned scavenger who is doing his best to survive with his friend “Boozer” after the loss of his wife. I think each of them have great points and analyze some very real flaws with the game, but I personally felt like Days Gone was a much better experience.ĭays Gone puts you in the shoes of Deacon St. These are not necessarily “bad” scores, and I certainly don’t fault the journalists for their reviews. GameSpot gave it a 5/10, IGN gave it a 6.5/10, and GamesRadar+ gave it 3.5/5. I feel like a lot of gamers skipped out on actually playing Days Gone, and a lot of major gaming publications gave it middle of the road scores.

If you did not check it out when it launched, you would seem to be in the majority. Days Gone might be my favorite of the ports so far, simply because I feel like way too many people slept on this game.įor those who are not familiar, Days Gone is the (formerly) PlayStation exclusive zombie apocalypse, third person shooter from 2019.
#DAYS GONE UPDATE PC#
This ever-growing list is amazing, and continues to give me hope that some of my absolute favorite PlayStation exclusive titles like Bloodborne and God of War may one day make their way to PC as well. Horizon Zero Dawn, Detroit Become Human, Death Stranding, Beyond: Two Souls, and now Days Gone. Publisher: Sony Interactive Entertainmentĭays Gone marks another in an increasingly long list of former PlayStation exclusive games getting PC releases.
