Days Gone |OT| A Deacon of Hope
- Thread starter Nagito
- Start date
I asked the same question on here a week ago and ended up buying the game. I'm about half-way through, and so far, it has definitely been worth it. The world and narrative arcs alone make it feel special. If you're looking for something to play, this will definitely last you a good while
If there is a sequel, it would massively benefit from the upgraded hardware. Hell, they should've pushed this to PS5 or PS4 Pro only, because the way it runs on the base PS4 is rough to say the least.
Is rough on pro as well, specially late game sections you can tell frame really drops heavy.
Thats a tough one that depends mostly on your expectations and likes
I managed to get mine for $40 with trade in credit so I think that was the perfect pricepoint.
But now that i'm nearing the endgame, I think its worth the full price. This game is huge , the story is way better than i expected, and the satisfaction of taking down a horde is great and hasn't worn out.
Again. yeah depends on your likes and expectations. Oddly, this game really reminds me of Red Dead Undead / Mad Max. Super solid zombie action game
do i have to clear all hordes to continue? This is after iron mike dies, i did a mission for cope and nothing else has come up in like 10 minutes
So..
What's up with the south region, the one you unlock far into the game ? I haven't done any mission since meeting up with Sarah again but the place is filled with big empty caves with lots of dead animals and I keep hearing whispers and weird ghostly voices and howling. Never had these sound effects in the previous areas. The game really amped up the creepiness factor, it's weird.
It's just terrible on the bike even in the PS4 Pro. You can tell why they gimped the FoV to hell and back on foot.
I'm so surprised at how well the dialogue, the story, and the voice acting are. I think the last time I was this enthralled by those three points was RDR 2. Its really the main reason that I'm still playing it, because I don't really care for how a lot of the missions are structured, and the reward to misc. side quests and exploration is pretty weak.
Y'all gotta stop with the semi spoilers talking about what camp number you're on and ish lol. Anyway damn this game has Legggggsssss. It just continues to build up and up.
So I just beat it, two trophies away from platinum and I'm giving up on it. I need three more skill points and I really don't like fighting hords and I have spent hours trying to do the nitro drift And I can't do it. Good game with some really weird game system choices, like waiting for radio calls to give me missions, after main story it was over a hour of driving around just to get the last couple of missions to unlock so I could finish all storylines and with that many hords to kill they should have given us the option to buy crafting items. I'm not spending twenty minutes after every horde looking for growlers and gunpowder.
Been playing 20 hours so far and haven't seen issues.
Burn in with videogames is mainly only an issue if you are repetitively playing a GAAS type game for 100s-1000s of hours.
That's why usually gamers that complain of burn in are either frequent overwatch or Destiny players.
I don't think I've ever played any one game more than 100 hours in total in my life.
Also HDR looks truly stunning for Days Gone on OLED.
travel to nero sites/your first home base. Those have restocking supplies.
if you start on hard you cant
if you started on easy or normal you can change between these two at any time
hard differences
you take a lot more damage
resources are more scarce
more scrap to fix the bike
more fuel to refuel bike
no auto aim
i would assume why you cant change out or to hard is b/c the differences in resources available in the world cant be changed mid game
remember: a trophy's just a checkmark on an arbitrary list of checkmarks. & nothing more :) ...
Thanks, is hard really difficult or still pretty easy like most games?
I personally thought it was really easy. Only hordes gave me some trouble, but It was more because I was using weaker weapons.
i personally dont think its hard on hard to complete the game but its frustrating if you just want to free roam, mess around b/c of the limited resources
i personally wouldn't restart or replay on hard if started on normal b/c of the fact that they will have a even harder difficulty in june that may be even be rewarded with trophys save your 2nd play through for that

Thanks dudes, think I may go normal for now with that dlc more coming later. If I find it too easy I'll probably end up restarting on hard.
Go hard, you won't want to restart well into the game. It's more fun when it's more dangerous :)
Uh, game has hard crashed my pro. Never experienced this with any other game before. For one moment I thought it bricked it.
played up until boozer needed a rest. i dig the opening, but i cant wait until the world opens up properly.
im afraid for my Pro tough, its loud as hell playing this (like for many others). fix this shit somehow pls Bend :/ it ruins the mood even with headphones on and stresses me out.

Mine was loud as hell initially. Took it out of my TV stand so it had more room to breathe and it was fine afterwards unless I was in the menus. Those always make the fans go nuts.
Just got the plat and did 80% of the hordes. Loved the game despite the performance issues and some other odd design decisions.
I think it just depends on the console. Days Gone and Sekiro were both pretty easy on my Pro. Fans usually kicked on but not to the point where the thing sounded like it was about to take off. The last game I recall that really made me nervous in that regard was God of War 2018.
Just an FYI to anyone who finished the story and saw the credits. And hasn't turned it on since then...
there's some worthwhile quests after the 'end'
Credits rolling. Loved it, probably my favorite so far this year. Still plan to clean up the rest of the hordes.
Okay so I kept going and got to the last section. The story managed to pull me back in somewhat, but holy shit does this area make the game run bad. I'm probably going to call it quits.
Over all I've had an okay time, but I understand why it got the scores that it did. I thought maybe the story would be what got me through it. The world and the characters seem straight out of a more basic version of the walking dead. None of them really stand out.

I'm not done yet but seriously, there are way too many cutscenes. That and boring missions make Days Gone a great concept but a bad game. Killing hordes is fine. The rest is pretty meh or worse. 25 hours in and I'm still asked to follow characters while they talk. That's just super annoying. Gameplay is king, and this game has bad design, period.
Keep playing.
You also can't mark targets with the binoculars on hard.
Just had the
, can anyone give me a guess on how far I am plz?
rippers attack the lost lake camp
Nah. Not really.
Something I've noticed, folks: there are rarely enemies indoors (buildings). Especially freaks - seems very rare to find them or any enemies indoors (exception is nests). I wonder if there were technical reasons for that, maybe AI pathing issues or something?
Forced walking sections have to be one of the worst things in games. With that said I love pretty much everything else about days gone.
I didn't love those, true. Especially how slow he walks!
