This game will be great and I can't wait for the salty on ERA... It will be really fun!

I loved Streethawk growing up, and Airwolf.

Between dead rising 3/4 and state of decay I'm so over the open world zombie thing, I want to be excited for this one but it's just reminding me of those games except you can ride a motorbike.

Then again neither of those games were really very good so if this is good maybe it will hit the sweet pot.

I'm almost sure that one of the three videos will focus on the story. (According to Bend, it is the main focus of the game but they have decided to show little until now)

Glad to hear this. Contrary to the "Sony formula" crowd, I love a strong narrative and they have been delivering. I'm sure there's more going on here than what it seems.

As for the video? Damn, I'm shitting my pants. Days Gone? Day ONE.

Looks pretty but there's something strangely bland about the game. Like it doesn't have much style. I'm tempted to get it anyway.
As I said before, it looks like a third party title. I guess it's....all right? Need some exclusives that stray from the Sony formula.
Still got it, ERA.

That's what looks so bland about it. It looks blatantly like some frat guys are making a game that is about as inspired as your average cable edgy white people show. In fact, it is straight inspired by those cable shows and the lack of elevated style is apparent to me.

This is literally and objectively a bad post.

How could I forget...
I'd be more interested in Days Gone if it was a Street Hawk motorbike, I'll be honest.

But I like Sony exclusives so here I am paying attention anyway...
There weren't any zombies in Sons of Anarchy. Not that I remember anyway.

I would go with 80-85. But with all those hates around it, anything above 77-78 is a failure, for the haters of course.

I only say that because an ozzy podcaster guy has heard rumblings from select sources that reviews wont be great. Note: that says nothing about the game beyond dilettantes who are forced to play waaaaay too many games per year in order to pay rent aren't super keen. In fact, for me, universal critical ejaculation turns me off because that almost always means the game is not to my taste.

He sees into the future? I fail to see how he heard that.

For Bend studios first attempt at a AAA game, Days gone looks really good. When they release Days gone 2 on PS5 its gonna be at Uncharted 1 too Uncharted 2 upgrade level. Bend Studios moved into a bigger studio and expanded their staff on a permanent basis.

I'm actually more interested in the game after that video. I was getting a bit fatigued before as it was the same old stuff recycled time and again. Now they've given us a glimpse at different parts of the world it looks interesting again.

Friends in the know. It just means dont expect god of war or spiderman numbers. I still think it will be a better game for me than any of the other Sony games this gen aside from Driveclub, fwiw. MC /= quality or greatness or longevity, like at all.

What are you actually even talking about? Which other games have a Sons of Anarchy vibe besides the actual SoA game, which is awful? Really the only other AAA game out there where you can sort of get something remotely similar is GTA Online, that's pretty much it, and I don't have to explain how that game differs to Days Gone lol.

Also what the fudge is a frat guy edgy white people show exactly? Some of the posts around this game truly are the worst.
Something tells me that if it was the next Far Cry a lot of the doubters would be fully on board. This being said, Far Cry always gets a lot of shit, yet is beloved by many and sells tons, so #shrug.

Looking forward a mix of Far Cry/ Walking Dead-World War Z/ Sons of Anarchy and emergent gameplay :)
If they delived all that plus a great story, the sky's the limit imo.

I believe that's the idea. If they nail that and provide a good challenge for those looking for it, I'm gonna give it a spin.
Yup. They've been talking about that kind of gameplay. If it delivers, and the world allows for some really interesting emergent situations with many ways to approach and solve problems (especially in terms of making plans) then I'm excited. The weather system actually impacting gameplay is a good sign.
