Now everyone is finally giving this game the recognition it deserves. Sometimes a game can just be engaging and fun without having to change the norm. Awesome content as always, Jake!
I love this game. Bought it at full price. This is absolutely my favorite Playstation Exclusive game. Didn't care for the bugs and lags at the beginning before the update. Compelling storyline. Environment is stunning. And the sound effects is awsome. Playing this on 75 " tv with a home theater makes the experience worth Wild. I am very disappointed at Sony for not giving the green light for a sequel due to the ratings 😕. This game deserves more attention and well deserved Sequel.
Dude, this is the first game I ever pre-ordered the first game I ever platinum it is so addicting I fucking love it. It is my favorite, PlayStation exclusive, and deserves a sequel more than any other game on PlayStation next to ghost of Tsushima.
@@Fiorezy most of the negative reviews biggest point against the game was because the game had pretty horrible performance at launch. Framerate especiall chugged often but it runs really well on both the PS5 and now the PC I assume. It's a pretty dope game though definitely worth playing. Pretty much as long as you don't play it on a PS4 you're good.
@@Fiorezy I played it a month ago when it was free for PS+ users on the original PS4 and it ran fine. There were time where I did lose some framerates but nothing gamebreaking and my PS4 is around 7 years old now, so it's reasonable I guess. Overall, I think this is a really underrated game, the horde encounters are the standout. Probably the best zombie mechanics of any zombie game I've played yet (and I've played a lot of them). The first time you come across a horde, you're most likely going to shit yourself. I'd highly recommend it if you think of buying it, especially on PC where you'll have 60 fps.
@@kamyar9782 Definitely agree with everything you said, especially the horde part. The first time I accidentally encountered a horde during a mission near the Hot Springs camp I shat my pants.
So underrated. Pick this up if you haven't, one of few games I actually had fun 100 percenting, if I could give any advice, its stick with it. The good stuff doesn't come in till a while Into the game, but definitely worth it.

Freaking same. Just finished unlocking the whole map, got it with PS+, and this game feels like it was made for me. But I wish there were dialogue options.

Great game, would be interesting to see a sequel as a launch title for Playstation VI or later. Hordes, open-world exploration, decent worldbuilding and combat are all features that a wide variety of gamers enjoy, and it seems that a lot of gamers really enjoyed Days Gone. If a system had even more power than the PS5 I think we could see some really neat stuff, shooting millions of Freakers from a NERO chopper comes to mind. I have a feeling the recent PC release is meant to give Sony and the other higher-ups an idea how popular the game really is/was to decide to one day reenter the world of Days Gone. Fingers crossed, the story and gameplay was extremely enjoyable and I would love to see more of Deacon St. John.

@@mkv2718And?? Some people have had the PS5 for over 3 years now. He’s completely right in his assumption with the timeline for new generation PlayStations: Feb 2013 PS4 announcement, April 2019 PS5 announcement.

It may not be near completion but it’s in development for certain.
This made me think that you could maybe do another video about games which you were maybe thought were a bit "meh" when they released, but you ended up warming to a lot more over time... either as a result of just more time in the world, or genre fatigue, or even because of bug fixes. I'm sure we can all think of a handful of games that we were not keen on, but ended up coming back to a year or two later and loved them.
As a person with an ultrawide I really appreciate that the video is in ultra wide even though I know only a fraction of your viewer base probably has one.
Man when am I gonna get a good game that takes place in rural virginia. Although considering some of the inhabitants where I live it would probably be a horror game that has you running from psycho hillbillies.
I got the game on the PS5, and let me tell you, it is one of my all-time favorite games. I essentially 100% the game (didn't get to a few hordes) but I could not stop playing. Interacting with the world as Deacon St. John and his relationships with other people are what made the game. 10/10
Its good and fun with some awesome moments. & worth playing. The hordes & bike are awesome gameplay elements that this game brings to the table. But I’m super puzzled when people say that its one of their favorite games/one of the best games ever. Like its a huge step back in so many ways when it comes to open world games in the same vein
This game is great. I can’t believe it had many negative reviews on release. I never had a problem with the supposed bugs and always thought it was really fun with an intriguing story line. Highly recommend
I will absolutely agree that the progression with the guns is terrible. But I was interested in everything else, once you get the motorcycle and you don't have to run everywhere I think it gets going.
Same here I am at work & all I heard was a moan in the background like what the damn was that!! Employees walking pass me. & I'm like "it's a video game bruh. Lol haha" hahaha. Just eating lunch watching videos on video games. Honest. Haha.
Been playin this on Ps5 the last 3 weeks, i absolutely love this. I went back 4 years to the original before you buy and its a totally different take on it.
I’ve resumed playing this on my PS4 after dropping it for a long time and I’m mad that I sat on it for so long without finishing. Solid game IMO. I’d get the PC version after the price drops.
haha, me too, still have not finish it because I don't enjoy playing with controller. Now it is on PC I would buy this again when the price drop just for a better experience to use the kbm function.
First game I ever platinumed. Fell in love with the story characters and hordes of zombies. I love this game so sad there will not be a sequel. The ending left me shocked lol
Days gone is by all means worth the purchase, has a good long story full of side quests. The horde killer side quests are by far the best mechanic ive seen in a game in ages.
@@alanze18 Go spam this shit somewhere else. This is about the game and praising how good it is. Take your negativity to your dirty country instead where its actual problems.
I really like the widescreen format, think you guys should try to shot more videos in this format, it's pretty cool and doesn't melt my eyes so much when the screen burns white
I absolutely love this game. I started this on PS4 a number of years ago, and then finished it on the PS5 with the 4k upgrade. Completely changed the game and my experience. On PS4, the controls felt clunky and the aiming was terrible. PS5 upgrade changed all of that. Definitely agree this is a slow burn, but once it catches fire about 5-6 hours in, it's absolutely incredible. Highly recommend this game.
Lmao those exclusives are only being ported to pc to try and convince pc players to buy a ps5, the sequels to those titles will never come to pc like gow Ragnarok, any future uncharted and last of us titles, ghost of tsushima sequel etc.
With it now on PC, I really hope this game gets the second chance in the limelight it truly deserves. Been playing it on PS5 and it's been simply amazing
I am very pleasantly surprised with how well optimized the game is. My rig isn't the best out there but it can run it at 1440p with over 90 fps at almost max settings I can even bump it to 4k if I lower a few settings though I don't have a 4k monitor still very nice looking.
Crazy how well games runs when they're actually optimized well, running it on a fx6300/gtx1050ti at high 30fps it looks absolutely gorgeous still, hopefully ghost of tsushima is next
Game was severely underrated IMO. It's one of my favorite PS4 (then) exclusives. I don't think a rated less than 85-90 is deserved and I personally could only see points detracted from the PS4 version due to framerate/technical issues and the annoying mandatory stealth missions. Aside from that, the presentation, gameplay, progression, story, writing/characters are all top notch.
It definitely would have gotten more attention if the start wasn't so slow. I'm about 3/4ths in the story. I'm glad I got through the start. 20 hours in, and I was hooked. The characters and the story really get good once you reach the Lost Lake Camp.
Dude this is the first ever video I have seen on youtube that display 3440x1440 ultrawide in the correct aspect ratio, no damn black bars! Goooood job! Please make it permanent ! :D
I came to this game from Far Cry 5 and it felt so MUCH like a FC game to me. Everything is there - open world, clearing out camps, similar weapon wheel, skinning animals, enemy tagging, bonfire smoke in the distance. To me it is Far Cry Oregon (with zombies). Looks great, hate the cutscenes but we can skip those. I'm enjoying it.
This game is AMAZING towards the second half, and it couldn't have been any different. I'll mention two aspects that make the game SHINE towards the end: the plot and the hordes. I can't get into details of the plot cause I don't want to spoil it, but obviously the story doesn't start engaging. First you have to get to know the characters, create meaningful connections with them, learn their motivations, etc. Most stories are like this anyways. When it does pick up, it gets very interesting and thrilling. The HORDES though... gotta be the best, most original, and fun (gameplay wise) aspect of the game. It's what makes it different from "just any" open world game. And the thing is: it wouldn't have worked if they made it something accessible from the beggining. The whole point is, you only get strong (and well equiped) enough to fight a horde after a while. You can encounter them early on, and even try to take em out, but you will fail miserably. When you DO get the equipment and abilities necessary to take them on, it "makes sense" that you can take them out. It doesn't feel like a forced, artificial strength. I'm telling you, the feeling of progression in this game is amazing.
Nice, I very much appreciate the ultrawide on a Before You Buy. 21:9/32:9 support is always a gamble, especially near launch when coverage is so scarce.
I usually watch before you buy for advice. I watched your review about this game years ago when it released and your video is the reason why I didn’t play it. And now that I actually tried it, I found it extremely entertaining. Not like far cry 6 or those tedious open world games. The way they structured the open world on this game was brillant because even the side quests feel like it’s part of the main story. It’s unfortunate that this game will not have a sequel because of how it was received when it was released. Shame.
I really enjoyed this game. It was a shame that the reviews for the ps4 launch were so bad. Nevertheless i played the game day one on the ps4.... man man man we’re they wrong!! This game was amazing and imo One of the best games for the ps4 cycle and one of my top 5 games ever. The story was amazing and in combination with the bond that formed with the characters made this game even better. And the open world was simply amazing. I really liked to just ride and hunt the hordes or just scavenge some loot and to just enjoin the scenery. It was a very exciting game and the freakers/zombies made it one hell of an experience . I really envy you pc players that you still have this amazing game to play! Enjoy it and form your own opinion!! That’s the lesson i learned after playing this game.
I'm jus playing this on ps4 and to me it's one of the best game I've played in years. I felt really connected to the character and I felt as if I was in the game. I love love love this game 🎮 ❤️
After watching this, I finally decided to give this game a try, since it's on PC. And WOW! I can not BELIEVE I stayed away from this when it first came out. I LOVE this game. Just finished it. Would recommend to anyone. Really lots of fun!
I feel like Jake is a big fan of the pc, he's also a fan of consoles, but whilst consoles are made to be accessible, if you can afford it, pc's can look insanely good
I played this game after it was out for awhile so they fixed some of their issues. I absolutely loved it. The story was fantastic and it’s definitely worth playing.
I can totally imagine how great this game is on PC. I had so much fun playing this on my PS4 Pro before, that it was the only game I was able to get a platinum award on. But there's just no reason for me to pick up the title now. Maybe on a sale, after a year or so. Wishlisted for now.
Just finished the main story, 70h in. One of the best characthers in video game - "Deek" or Deacon St. John. Story was so good! And the environment..... Wow! So pretty visuals!
I’m pretty late to the party. Got it for $22 NZD recently. Worth it. Such a cool game. Runs well on an old PC. Some story missions are a little naff - but I’ll forgive it that
There needs to be a Deliveroo DLC for any game with motorbikes in, just to keep you on your edge and improve your riding and delivering pizzas during apocalyptical times. 🍕🍕🍕
You literally sound exactly like "TheTropher", a car reviewer here in YT, nice review you gave me the final boost that I needed to buy this game now that it has 20% discount
This game is extremely underrated. Take your time with it, it's a very long game (admittedly a little too long), but explore, do the quests, watch the cut scenes, tempt fate with hordes. it's very fun. For a game of this size it's quite amazing how great the production value was, though typical from a Sony exclusive.
I like the taking your time aspect and doing side missions, collecting things etc. I spent over 80 hours on Horizon Zero Dawn when I got it on Steam and still haven't finished the DLC. I've only played Days Gone for a couple of hours now but am taking my time with it.
@@TerraWare Yep HZD was brilliant too, i've not experienced it on PC, but on PS4 Pro I went exploring right from the beginning, finding and taking on my first thunder jaw at a very low level made for some heart pounding moments.
They did a good job projecting Deek's emotions in cut scenes. I also enjoy the game play sneaking into the enemy camp and taking them all out with a knife.
it wasn’t in my radar for PC games at all until I saw this footage. This game is seriously pretty. I hope this trend of PS4 exclusives coming to PC continues (mostly for bloodborne)
Couldn't recommend it enough, the start is pretty slow, but after around 5 hours the game becomes incredibly fun and addicting.
Damn after 5 hours, sounds like a tv series with a slow start. Super slow at first but if you hang in there it's worth it
5 hours kinda long bro
I loved this game, but fighting the hordes should of started from the beginning or closer to the beginning. They hold them off way, way to long.
heard that said about rdr2 and that it picks up 20 hours in... it never picked up for me. will i be disappointed in this games pick up too?
@@JonathanS89 thats not how a video game should be imo.
The bike handling is the best bike handling I've ever experienced in a video game. It feels heavy and powerful. Especially by the end of the game.

I’ve resumed playing this on my PS4 after dropping it for a long time and I’m mad that I sat on it for so long without finishing. Solid game IMO. I’d get the PC version after the price drops.
haha, me too, still have not finish it because I don't enjoy playing with controller. Now it is on PC I would buy this again when the price drop just for a better experience to use the kbm function.
@@sola4393 The game is available on Fitgirl for free
Is the ridiculous FPS stutters fixed?
First game I ever platinumed. Fell in love with the story characters and hordes of zombies. I love this game so sad there will not be a sequel. The ending left me shocked lol
Should have bought it at full price you freaking poor.
/s
@@kirbylover37 I bought it at launch for $67 and it was so rough...2 years later I started to really enjoy it...so it wasn't worth in 2019 but is now
The reveals about the freaker at the end were really something. You HAVE to keep playing after the credits roll.
Days Gone was the most emotionally invested I've been in a game in a VERY long time.
Never hated a character for than that POS Skizzo
Was so so so happily and unexpectedly sucked into how good this game is. Loved every moment till the last horde killed.
This is one of the best games ever made. Personal favorite.
This game was far better than the mainstream gaming press led you to believe when it released. Have fun.
Not really it was really boring.
I agree. But it’s not that great of a game tbh. Better than the gaming press were butthurt about though.
@@ameetfaisal8723 I had to force myself to finish this game. It's quite dreadful to play honestly
It's very mediocre...... Sold my ps4 copy pretty fast, never finished it
I actually liked this game
Days gone is by all means worth the purchase, has a good long story full of side quests. The horde killer side quests are by far the best mechanic ive seen in a game in ages.
Such an underrated game. 💯
it's not underrated at all, it's typical open world game, nothing new at all, it's just a decent game.
@@alanze18 lol you gonna keep spamming this
@@alanze18 Go spam this shit somewhere else. This is about the game and praising how good it is. Take your negativity to your dirty country instead where its actual problems.
@@MrHawkTV LMFAO click at his pfp and see what he comments (if you're on mobile)
I really like the widescreen format, think you guys should try to shot more videos in this format, it's pretty cool and doesn't melt my eyes so much when the screen burns white
I absolutely love this game. I started this on PS4 a number of years ago, and then finished it on the PS5 with the 4k upgrade. Completely changed the game and my experience. On PS4, the controls felt clunky and the aiming was terrible. PS5 upgrade changed all of that.
Definitely agree this is a slow burn, but once it catches fire about 5-6 hours in, it's absolutely incredible. Highly recommend this game.
the moment i needed this video it dropped
4h early in my case
Bro me too
Feel like I've been waiting on this game for ages
Once Sony puts God of War and Ghost of Tsuchima on PC. It's over
@@karltee7862 Over for Sony maybe lol
Lmao those exclusives are only being ported to pc to try and convince pc players to buy a ps5, the sequels to those titles will never come to pc like gow Ragnarok, any future uncharted and last of us titles, ghost of tsushima sequel etc.
@@scoobertdoobert3373 i have both ps4 and pc. Cant complain
@@scoobertdoobert3373 Sony understands that releasing a game on pc gives it a new wave of sales, more money.
With it now on PC, I really hope this game gets the second chance in the limelight it truly deserves. Been playing it on PS5 and it's been simply amazing
Its a damn shame the sequel isn't being made, I was waiting to see what the "freakers" did next and after that ending!!!
One of the best games I've played and I've played 1000s since the 80s
Loving the ultrawide! Would love to see this more often!
I loved this game. The full ending gave me the chills. Knowing there wont be a sequel makes my heart ache.
Will never forgive IGN for damaging DAYS GONE.
Never
IGN moment
I am very pleasantly surprised with how well optimized the game is. My rig isn't the best out there but it can run it at 1440p with over 90 fps at almost max settings I can even bump it to 4k if I lower a few settings though I don't have a 4k monitor still very nice looking.
Crazy how well games runs when they're actually optimized well, running it on a fx6300/gtx1050ti at high 30fps it looks absolutely gorgeous still, hopefully ghost of tsushima is next
Game was severely underrated IMO. It's one of my favorite PS4 (then) exclusives. I don't think a rated less than 85-90 is deserved and I personally could only see points detracted from the PS4 version due to framerate/technical issues and the annoying mandatory stealth missions. Aside from that, the presentation, gameplay, progression, story, writing/characters are all top notch.
It definitely would have gotten more attention if the start wasn't so slow. I'm about 3/4ths in the story. I'm glad I got through the start. 20 hours in, and I was hooked. The characters and the story really get good once you reach the Lost Lake Camp.
At 1:43 we get Deacon murdering then trash talking a child. 10/10
Dude this is the first ever video I have seen on youtube that display 3440x1440 ultrawide in the correct aspect ratio, no damn black bars! Goooood job! Please make it permanent ! :D

I came to this game from Far Cry 5 and it felt so MUCH like a FC game to me. Everything is there - open world, clearing out camps, similar weapon wheel, skinning animals, enemy tagging, bonfire smoke in the distance. To me it is Far Cry Oregon (with zombies). Looks great, hate the cutscenes but we can skip those. I'm enjoying it.
This game is AMAZING towards the second half, and it couldn't have been any different.
I'll mention two aspects that make the game SHINE towards the end:
the plot and the hordes.
I can't get into details of the plot cause I don't want to spoil it, but obviously the story doesn't start engaging. First you have to get to know the characters, create meaningful connections with them, learn their motivations, etc. Most stories are like this anyways. When it does pick up, it gets very interesting and thrilling.
The HORDES though... gotta be the best, most original, and fun (gameplay wise) aspect of the game. It's what makes it different from "just any" open world game. And the thing is: it wouldn't have worked if they made it something accessible from the beggining. The whole point is, you only get strong (and well equiped) enough to fight a horde after a while. You can encounter them early on, and even try to take em out, but you will fail miserably. When you DO get the equipment and abilities necessary to take them on, it "makes sense" that you can take them out. It doesn't feel like a forced, artificial strength. I'm telling you, the feeling of progression in this game is amazing.
Nice, I very much appreciate the ultrawide on a Before You Buy. 21:9/32:9 support is always a gamble, especially near launch when coverage is so scarce.
I usually watch before you buy for advice. I watched your review about this game years ago when it released and your video is the reason why I didn’t play it. And now that I actually tried it, I found it extremely entertaining. Not like far cry 6 or those tedious open world games. The way they structured the open world on this game was brillant because even the side quests feel like it’s part of the main story. It’s unfortunate that this game will not have a sequel because of how it was received when it was released. Shame.
I really enjoyed this game. It was a shame that the reviews for the ps4 launch were so bad. Nevertheless i played the game day one on the ps4.... man man man we’re they wrong!! This game was amazing and imo One of the best games for the ps4 cycle and one of my top 5 games ever. The story was amazing and in combination with the bond that formed with the characters made this game even better. And the open world was simply amazing. I really liked to just ride and hunt the hordes or just scavenge some loot and to just enjoin the scenery. It was a very exciting game and the freakers/zombies made it one hell of an experience . I really envy you pc players that you still have this amazing game to play! Enjoy it and form your own opinion!! That’s the lesson i learned after playing this game.
Agree. The game is great!
0:33 love the freakers head coming off and landing on the ground but he still has a head on his shoulders remarkably 😆
The game is so optimized man ❤️
Finally, something to watch that covers my whole screen, thank you
Days gone and Dying light are my go-to zombie games. Just a lot of fun.
Boy nothing compares to DL. That game was a blast in every single way
I'm jus playing this on ps4 and to me it's one of the best game I've played in years. I felt really connected to the character and I felt as if I was in the game. I love love love this game 🎮 ❤️
After watching this, I finally decided to give this game a try, since it's on PC. And WOW! I can not BELIEVE I stayed away from this when it first came out. I LOVE this game. Just finished it. Would recommend to anyone. Really lots of fun!
Will we also get a before you buy for the new subnautica? Love the series!
The first game made me fear the sea 😅 Great game though
@@xavierabii548 buy it. It’s like the first with a lot of quality of life improvements and more to explore
I feel like Jake is a big fan of the pc, he's also a fan of consoles, but whilst consoles are made to be accessible, if you can afford it, pc's can look insanely good
I played this game after it was out for awhile so they fixed some of their issues. I absolutely loved it. The story was fantastic and it’s definitely worth playing.
3 years later and this game is flooding some game pages on fb for some reason. Looks like it made a surprise comeback. Just ordered it myself.
Ripping through hordes is definitely the highlight of this game
I was thinking of buying this for PS4 a few months ago (before PC was announced)
Honestly, kind of glad I waited now
I was wondering why the video looked so good. The ultra wide is gorgeous
I'm just here to hear Jake say 'days gahn" a bunch.
I highly recommend this game. I had a blast with it. The game on survival is incredible.
I can totally imagine how great this game is on PC. I had so much fun playing this on my PS4 Pro before, that it was the only game I was able to get a platinum award on. But there's just no reason for me to pick up the title now. Maybe on a sale, after a year or so. Wishlisted for now.
You do not know how good this looks, it's actually unreal
I have it on ps5 and now my high end pc and it looks so much better on my pc , awesome !!
I THINK IT NEEDS A SEQUEL. USE ME AS A "YES, WE WANT DAYS GONE 2" BUTTON!
Wow the first time a video has ever filled my entire screen. Magical
I'm hooked on this game. It is criminally underrated. 10/10
In a short way, it's a crime we wont get a sequel, one of my favorite games of all time
More ultrawide content pleaseeeeee
I bought one not too long ago it's insane
Best monitor choice I ever made was going 21:9 3840x1600

Just finished the main story, 70h in. One of the best characthers in video game - "Deek" or Deacon St. John. Story was so good! And the environment..... Wow! So pretty visuals!
Wait, you can mark enemies with the binoculars!!? Man, I literally just finished the game! I'm here to fill that post game-finishing grief/void!
It’s sad that when it was first released, shitting on this game was considered cool by every game critic.
Must buy this studio needs your support !!!
" Everyone buy this game so sony make another sequel for this underrated gem "
Well the sequel was cancelled for a remake nobody asked for.
@@jeffreyblair9644 whats the remake?
@@jeffreyblair9644 well because of the remake its getting lot of positive exposure. Thats good!
I’m pretty late to the party. Got it for $22 NZD recently.
Worth it. Such a cool game.
Runs well on an old PC.
Some story missions are a little naff - but I’ll forgive it that
I regretted buying r2d2 but Days gone was worth every penny for me , but i just might be in love with the theme of zombies
Best quote in the game: "you want me to weaponize Boozer?"
1:25 ya gotta use the knife to open the trunk when the window's already smashed lol.
There needs to be a Deliveroo DLC for any game with motorbikes in, just to keep you on your edge and improve your riding and delivering pizzas during apocalyptical times. 🍕🍕🍕
You literally sound exactly like "TheTropher", a car reviewer here in YT, nice review you gave me the final boost that I needed to buy this game now that it has 20% discount
This game is extremely underrated. Take your time with it, it's a very long game (admittedly a little too long), but explore, do the quests, watch the cut scenes, tempt fate with hordes. it's very fun. For a game of this size it's quite amazing how great the production value was, though typical from a Sony exclusive.
I like the taking your time aspect and doing side missions, collecting things etc. I spent over 80 hours on Horizon Zero Dawn when I got it on Steam and still haven't finished the DLC. I've only played Days Gone for a couple of hours now but am taking my time with it.
@@TerraWare Yep HZD was brilliant too, i've not experienced it on PC, but on PS4 Pro I went exploring right from the beginning, finding and taking on my first thunder jaw at a very low level made for some heart pounding moments.
I would love to see a ps5 upgrade
They did a good job projecting Deek's emotions in cut scenes. I also enjoy the game play sneaking into the enemy camp and taking them all out with a knife.
It was seriously weird to start this video because I usually watch in theater mode so seeing no black bars was kinda weird
it wasn’t in my radar for PC games at all until I saw this footage. This game is seriously pretty. I hope this trend of PS4 exclusives coming to PC continues (mostly for bloodborne)
They said "i hope we steered you in the right direction" they only just made me want this game more
