Are any big games coming out right before, the same week, or right after Dyas Gone comes out? I can't think of anything other than Sekiro which if I'm correct is 2 weeks before this.

Hmm between Ghost and Days Gone, I'm more interested in Days Gone. Ghost looks like its going to suffer the same issues the Infamous games had, uninteresting plot, writing and characters. Hard to tell where Days Gone will stand but the hordes and how many they're able to put on screen at once is interesting. Assuming they can keep the FPS stable.

It looks great, and I expect it to be a fantastic game that far too many people are sleeping on.

Lol at Toni and his ilk who're so insecure they dragged BotW into this.

10 million views on that video surprised me.

Could actually be popular, though I think it's one of the most boring looking upcoming AAA games. It's missing something, some kind of allure besides a big ass horde of zeds. The open sandbox motif and uninspired looking combat just loses me as badly as the tired Far cry games have, except with seemingly more drab characters.

They must be pretending because you are unable to understand why anyone would be excited for Days Gone?
Once again, no, it was because they were posting like youtube-comment console warriors. And since I haven't seen much of that here (let alone multiple posts in a row) I thought it might be a bit.

Despite usually enjoying a lot most of Sony's first party output, and this game's theme kinda being my cup of tea i am somehow only mildly interested right now, and will wait until it launches to learn a bit more about it and decide.
I want to like it more but it lacks something, at least from what has been shown so far: too action oriented instead of horror and/or survival.
However i do not agree it is generic. Maybe not super inspired, a bit bland so far design wise, but that's it.
Hope I'm proven wrong and end buying and enjoying it, And hopefully it is a success for Bend. We need as many studios as possible doing big SP games.

Edit: The first rule of being a shill, call someone else a shill.

I wouldn't go that far.

There are a total of two troll posts on the first page, not "half the post on the front page".

Horizon had the most picks for biggest flop of the year for 2017. People were actively shitting on the game in the preview thread despite glowing previews, but one or two faces looks iffy and everyone fucking panicked.

GoW had a shit load of people concerned on Era, because they weren't showing gameplay or having preview events until like a month before release. A lot of people were shouting gloom and doom for the game, that Sony wasn't confident in it, that the gameplay took a backseat for the story. Even the glowing previews had a shitload of haters.
Not to mention everyone crapping on the lack of jump button and boat segments.

I played this at PAX AUS and it was a total snooze fest. Can't say I'll be buying it.

Maybe I'll wait a few weeks til Sony cut it half price like the rest of their games.

My most anticipated new IP this year. I hope the game world is as brutal and immersive as it appears to be, and it has a compelling story. I honestly love everything I have seen so far of the game.

Also, I have been craving a good new TPS for a while. Days Gone looks like it has potential to be a fun shooting game with the amount of enemies you can mowdown at once.

Zombies are as much of a fad as aliens, so they'll never be gone. Games like RE2 remake prove they can be horrifying and exciting today. DG is lacking there; it's not creepy, it doesn't look unique, doesn't have much of an identity. Maybe that's marketing's fault.

my problem with it is, the times that I've seen it, the zombies looked dumb/slow to react

This is not scratching any of my itches, but I hope for Bend it does well. It's been painfully long in development, so it should be well polished on release..Personally feel a bit open-worlded out and after RDR2, the living world bar has been set bloody high. DG is almost a game and concept too late....hope it surprises me into a purchase :-)

Damn this thread is something else

This must be what it's like for Microsoft fans to try to discuss an Xbox game outside of the first party thread.

Went about as expected I suppose:)

Wind your neck in. You knew exactly what you were doing. The post reads like a cross between an official PlayStation blog and a Sony fan boys wet dream.

I have no feelings on this game and all your carefully selected YouTube stats and sound bites won't win over those that do have concerns on the eventual outcome of the game. I get that you are excited about it, but fuck me this thread! I mean, I honestly think between these types of posts from the op, the "let's x our avatars with the latest game release" the "sell me on x game" threads I finally feel I'm getting to old for this shit

There is very little to no discourse to be found here and more flag cheering for mega corporation x than real insight.

So with that said, enjoy your plastic toy and here's hoping your "team" wins! Good day sir

I don't know if this is going to be a big franchise for Sony but I can see the game doing well with a good marketing plan and through word of mouth as well.
I'm not too interested myself in this game but I wish Sony Bend all the best to selling well.

I think the game will have a few surprises , I was surprised how polished it was when they let press player it 8+ months ago.

Imagine what they have been adding / polishing since then .

I don't think so. It looks interesting but the whole zombies thing is getting underwhelming at least to me
It will not fail thats for sure because its a PS exclusive game but getting high praise? Most likely it won't happen

Yeah, to each their own, but the zombie deal seems five years too late to me unless it's as good as something like TLoU. Not my jam personally, but I hope for Bend it does well.

I strongly disagree. I think it will do decently critically and commercially but I suspect it will be pretty quickly forgotten when the developers move to another IP.
