Days Gone’s director has responded to a report claiming that plans for Days Gone 2 were rejected by Sony.
Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?
Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.
Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.
I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one,ghosts of tshushima about to get one but this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.
Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't.
Cultured Vultures: These 15 unresolved video cliffhangers could be solved in the future, though if we’re really honest with ourselves, we all know there’s no chance in hell of that happening.
Never say never, I really didn't expect to ever see Space Marine 2 and 12 years later its almost here.
So there is still hope for all these games.
I've completed 5 of the games on the list, but the author forgot to include Advent Rising. It was supposed to be a trilogy, but it bombed hard, and the two sequels never got made. It was Mass Effect, a console generation before Mass Effect.
The game is buggy and unpolished, it needed a few more months of development, but the potential was there. At the end of the game, you have all these super abilities, I remember the stomp attack that created a shockwave being especially powerful.
I personally think days gone will recieve some sort of sequel at some point. I'm personally also hoping it's not the rumored multiplayer online stuff. I'd think most that enjoyed it would rather thisnto.
Sony needs to dust off Sly Cooper and Days Gone so needs a sequel two of my favorite Sony titles. Bulletstorm I love great game wish it also got a sequel. And I wish Namco would finally give Enslaved a sequel another great game.
This was so fun I love the hoards. People need to stick with it because the start is very slow
The critical reception had Sony relegate Bend to a support studio. Thank God the fans spoke up and Sony reversed that decision.
Must read article for fans.
Commercial success vs Sony not having MS or Fortnite cash/renewables, to the critics’ bloodbath and the state of 120 man AAA. Bonus: shared universe mp in the pitch.
Finally, says never say never.
So it was true. Sticking other teams on Naughty Dog IPs is a poor move. I loved the Uncharted games but I'd much rather a new IP at this stage or a sequel to a less developed property. Days Gone 2 would have definitely appealed to me. Although Co op would have worried me. The 1st game's 71 metacritic score is criminal
I dont agree wth the sales argument on the news. Days gone was one of the biggest seller of a new ip in 2019. Box and digital. The sales were much higher then many thought, because of poorly reviews. Just shows that reviews and sales dont mean much. But a new game that sells 4.5 or 5 millions arent low. But its funny to see now so many saying how amazing Days Gone is. I think the game is cool, but i read so much stuff from people that didnt even play the game...
