I love Days Gone.
It’s a great game. A lot of fun.
Me too
Amazing game... Anyone who says otherwise loses all credibility.. Though I heard there were lots of technical issues at launch..idk
@johnnyflannigan136 I mean it had way less issues then something like Elden Ring or Dragons Dogma. Even Spider-man 2 had more bugs than Days Gone at launch. It wasn't that bad.
Yeah, but did you buy it at full price?
Sony says no sequel. The developers say no sequel. The ex director says no sequel. So what I’m hearing is that there’s a chance ;)
I think it's a massively underrated game.. I liked it a lot, and I think it absolutely deserves a sequel. And I usually don't even like zombie games.
Great comment that many will agree with and relate.
@@planetrift it’s not underrated. It’s rated as a good game. It’s widely regarded as a good game. It’s just every week someone discovers it, gets excited and runs to the internet to applaud the game to the masses.
It’s massively overrated by a small minority of noisy RUclipsrs
While I think that "most" of the game is fine. I really dislike those "forced" to take out the herd in the area to continue. I spent hours trying to set up killing the most I can, and then I take out a maybe 10% then I'm out of supplies and get so annoyed that I have to switch to a lower difficulty just to skip them
agree...how this game got such poor reviews is beyond me.....one of the most fun I've had in years...sucks when good IP's get shelved
Some people say this game was mid, but I binged it during the COVID lockdowns and LOVED it. I found the story twists really creative and fun. I think this game 100% deserved a sequel.
Game is anything but mid...... Assassins creed games are mid... Days gone is great
AC Odyssey was a masterpiece imo and so is day gone. Let's not talk bad about one to amp another.
@@squallthegrieverif you love cod too then I might have found the worst possible taste in games
The problem was that at launch it was a glitch-filled train wreck.
This was your dream covid scenario? lol
I feel bad for Sam Witwer lmao. Been apart of some great games and keeps getting sidelined. Days gone is a fantastic game.
My son and I met him briefly at a convention here in New Zealand a few years ago. Nicest guy you ever met, talks to you like he's known you for years.
He needs a good Darth maul movie for his career
I know right - he always gives it his all and end up in projects thast never really flies. Fingers crossed though.
I loved Deacon Saint John. I loved his character and the actor. The world was amazing and the Zombie hordes were cool af. The use of the bike in the game was also really fun.
Imagine Days Gone 2 on PS5 with bigger cities, bigger hordes etc
I hated him beyond words. He was a sour, sour, self-pitying sociopath. A typical day with him would be Deek riding about, spotting strangers out in the world who he couldn't possibly have known anything about, then he'd start mumbling to himself about how they were all evil and had to die - despite him knowing *nothing* about them. Absolute psychopath. Now think of survivors out in the world hearing gruesome tales of a lone motorbike rider cruising around, murdering stragglers and small groups, and Deacon becomes even less likeable. I really, really, really hated that character, and his narcissistic portrayal.
His character was annoying
@@vercoda9997 your probably also one of those people who thinks cod shouldnt have gore and you probably think gta should turn into a park walking simulator. like cmon bruh you really gonna sit there and be like i dont like a video game charecter because he does video game things.
Don't listen to those two people in your comment section brother. I also love Deacon, hell, 70% of the reasons why I love Days Gone is because of the main protagonist. People may hate him because he's always talking to himself but let's face it, it's a freaking zombie apocalypse, and he thought his wife died. Although he's always struggling with his mental issues, he still cares about everyone that accompanies him. His love for Sarah and bromance with Boozer is well-executed. That guy saying he didn't care for anyone is hilarious. May be he's the guy who saw Kratos killed a normal enemy then hate on Kratos because "he knew nothing about that enemy". Like calm down bruh, use your empathy in real life, this is a freaking video game.
@@lneethn2529 Amen brother.
Days gone is a stellar game
Calling it "stellar" is a stretch. Game was fun but very cookie cutter and repetitive with cringe voice acting. It's a 7/10 at most.
@@SCA84 i liked the walking romance scenes, they really made me hope all the characters would die
@@numberonedad Yeah. The game is mid as fuck and Sony is right for refusing to greenlight a sequel.
It really wasn’t good tho it was actually bad everyone knew it at the time so don’t get where this is coming from.
@@SCA84FACTS
The cliffhanger ending warranted a sequel easily
Yeah I played Days Gone last year for the first time and I immediately started to fantasize about how the sequel could play. Imagine intelligent zombies with weapons man... New mutants, brand new areas, weapons, maybe even cars and big trucks for special occasions just to name a few things.
Bro I love the game I played it 3 times from beginning to end still haven't got all my little metals from the little stuff you can do on your motorcycle but the ending definitely they have to give us a sequel they can't leave it hanging on that they're coming and there's nothing nobody can do come on now
Days Gone franchise should have been Sony's answer to State of Decay. Missed opportunity.
That is actually the perfect way to summarize Days Gone actually bc, just like it, I also can't figure out who tf actually likes State of Decay. Like where tf did this following come from?
The Last Of Us series is better than both why would Sony bother
@@chriscollins3225 Good point.
@@nickhard7615 well if there is a sequel then ppl played it and bought it and there is no Drama
Hordes were actually in the first area, you just have to explore.
Yeah the second half of the game was actually less interesting than the first half. The first half I thought was really well paced and properly challenging.
Yes if you don’t need your hand held, hordes are there the entire game
Days Gone sold well, the director of the game said it sold as well as Ghost of Tsushima did at the time (2021).
Sold over 8 or 9 million in just a year and a half.
This whole argument that people bought it on sale is not the killer argument you think it is. Because if the player base is there, that justification for a sequel. A person that bought it at $30 but enjoyed it, will be hyped for the sequel, so its very important for a New IP to get as many players as possible, because it will reflect in the sequel's potential fan base that will buy the sequel.
It's a matter of priorities, Sony is not as huge as you could think if you remember the huge number of high investment projects they always keep open.
So they can invest in a game that received mixed reviews, from both journalists and players, a game that had to be sold at a discount one month after release (or was it 3 months? can't remember, but it doesn't change my argument much), a game that looks dumb to play (one guy killing two thousands zombies in a minute XD), OR... or they can keep investing in Spiderman, The last of us, god of war, horizon, etc... some of those franchise are among the most beloved in history of gaming.
Maybe if you guys keep pretending Days gone is a masterpiece, it will eventually happen. You know, like what happened with Shenmue. Every shenmue game was a comercial failure, but people kept talking about it, until a new failure was finally released. Let's go for Days gone 2, we'll see how many people actually get it for full price.
If the game sold well it would have a sequel
It was never about sales -- it was about ideology. If people can get that through their heads they will understand why it did not get a sequel.
@@PointingouttheObvious It had nothing to do with sales and everything to do with intention. The game didn't align ideologically with Sony's aims.
@@Alfonso88279 problem with those is that the game costs goes up while the sell numbers aren''t,i highly doubt that Spiderman 2 will reach the Spiderman of 2018 sell numbers and bare in mind that Spiderman 2018 costed them 80m while Spiderman 2 is 300m
I guess 7.32 million copies sold isn’t a lot then 🤣
@@falconclaw1253 watch the full video pal
Huge difference between 7 million sales at full price and 7 million sales on ps+ and on sale. Do you know which one it was?
@@TheCephalonexactly lmao. I’m very sure 7 million people bought spider man 2 at full price not days gone
@@TheCephalon now that you mention it i played it cause its on ps+ extra
They wanted at launch, at full price, to have a Big sale, not aftewards w lower price
Days gone was amazing!
To be fair, Days Gone on ps4 was ass. Only when I came on PC, it became a better game.
It sucked
Out of all the games Sony has ported to PC Days Gone has been my favorite. I really think they could have pulled off an amazing sequel
Pretty good game. I'm not a big zombie fan, but this one was pretty cool, it brings good memories.
I heavily disagree with that horde thing at the end of the game. I think that's brilliant, makes the game have an awesome progression. I enjoyed days gone a lot, I'm not a PS guy but I I played it on pc and it was great. I'm not a fan of playstation never owned one but I have to say they make damn good games. Good thing they release them on pc too.
Damn that’s insane to I’ve owned every PlayStation except the ps5 now. Gotta say I’m glad they’re games are hitting steam now too
I'm with you here. Having the hordes earlier in the game when you're weaker with fewer weapons would've been impossible. It would have also made the game feel very repetitive and extremely boring by the time you join the militia at Crater Lake and are still fighting hordes. I thought the game's slow burn story and progression were a nice change of pace from the other game I was playing at the time, AC Valhalla, which was literally 200 hours of the same thing over and over.
These reviewers have truly terrible takes sometimes. I DID appreciate though that Luke made a follow up review apologising for judging Days Gone too harshly at first. He's one of very few who had the honesty to do that.
me too
also the hordes were there throughout the whole game if I remember. Assuming you know where they were, or just stumbled across them, you were able to fight them from practically the very beginning of the game. It was just near impossible to do so when you had only the early game equipment. I remember trying to fight one some time in the middle of the game and just kept dying before giving up.
Though it is true that they don't become part of the story until you're in the last like fifth of the game.
@@sanddude20 Yup; you can use a lot of equipment to take out the hordes in the early goings, but it's extremely difficult. I liked the game for the fact that you needed a ton of supplies to actually take down hordes. It wasn't like World War Z where they just dump infinite ammo in your path and the hordes never really feel challenging.
It had the best zombie mechanics out of any zombie game I have played. It always felt on the edge of flirting with disaster and being overwhelmed. The story wasn't something that resonated with me but it was serviceable. But for me, personally, a Days Gone sequel is greater than any live service product being developed.
Days Gone Protagonist is an instant classic. I honestly loved all the bad moves he made, some how his mistakes while all fantastical all felt realistic at the same time. I hope that team stays together and make another game.
Sad News Really..... The Writing Could Have Been Better But The Gameplay Was Freaking Awesome
Evan if most people bought in sales or whathever, having a large player base in the first game already is a pretty good indication that the sequel would be succesfull.
One of my favorite zombie games of all time, so sad this game doesn't get the respect it deserves
its under my favorite games of all time. the organic progression, thier spin on the zombie genre and bikers it just clicks with me
What a shame that there is no hope for a sequel :(
Days Gone biggest issue was it’s pacing.
That game never ended!
Yeah it really felt like they wanted a 60 hour game but only had a 20 hour game, so they just padded everything. I gave up at the knife fight boss and moved on to better stuff
@@joshuaerickson2458 You had 20 more hours after that fight 😂 When that third area opened up I screamed in pain
The secret ending makes me sad that we probably won't get a sequel.
Honestly didn't feel that long to me. Maybe cuz I was enjoying it so much but that's just me.
@@SolidSnake240 I think only the second quarter of the game is somewhat weak and dragged out. After the first 6-8 hours it was a bit repetetive for a while but a couple more hours later when more useful skills were unlocked, better weapons became available and the story also picked up, it was amazing once again.
Days Gone just wasn't a game setup for a 'review cycle' It really takes about 10-12hrs to get going. But man, what a game. One of my favorites I've finished in the past few years. Once I got over the hump, I could. not. stop. playing it. I think it really caught wind when it released on PC. Such an excellent Summer Steam Deck game. It's on sale now...If you haven't...you need to play it. Days Gone and The Division 1 & 2. 3 games that didn't really review well, and had some issues at launch, but all 3 are among my favorites. EVER. Patiently waiting for a Days Gone 2, and a Division 3. I loved Ghost of Tsushima, don't get me wrong...But I think Days Gone was definitely the more interesting play.
I was the same. I was addicted to it when it came out. A little slow in the beginning but it was one of the first games in a while where I was completely engrossed in it.
The poor performance was a big factor in the reception of the game at launch. It wasn't until the game got significant updates that people came around and it gained a cult fanbase.
@@SolidSnake240 the performance was definitely annoying. It was something I was able to look past though. I still played and finished the game. Things were more enjoyable once the performance was fixed.
story stunk
@@numberonedad nope
Allegedly Days Gone made money but Sony execs don't like it. So while it makes sense to make a sequel the Sony execs don't want to do it. They should just sell the IP.
Because the game wasn't w0ke enough for their tastes, even though it was w0ke enough.
Days gone is the only PlayStation exclusive I asked for a refund, it crashed 3 times in the first hour, the 3rd crash was a hard reset of my console, i feel like people are forgetting how abysmal the games performance was at launch, I was thinking this game was gonna brick my console.
Yeah, it was pretty broken at launch. I remember the first few areas running decently, but the third area was completely broken and that’s when I put the game on ice. Animations weren’t working, levels weren’t loading, massive fps drops and crashing were just a few of the issues.
I think volume of sales is just as important in this discussion cause if the volume is high enough, it doesn’t matter if Ghost sold more units at full price; the total net profit could be in the same ball park. Also, a high number of after initial release sales tells us that a sequel would be positioned well to sell much better than it’s predecessor; the initial game was breaking new ground and had to stand out. It’s normal for game one to not sell that well in a franchise on initial release. Look at the Dark Souls franchise
8:30 days gone sold 9.1 million copies on ps4 and pc combined
and there is Sony "masterpiece" TLOU2 that sold 10 million copies. One game is praised and another scold by journalist.
@@IgorBozoki1989 Full price or ON sale?
I played the game for first time on Steam PC. It is one of the best games ever created handsdown.
no
That's a big stretch
Massively delusional
play better games
@@PulseAttack yes
I play a full run through at least once a year. One of my favorites. And they left a really cool cliffhanger which is a crime to leave it.
The first game is so fucking good it’s wild it didn’t get a second one immediately
I bought Days Gone full price and loved it! One of my favorite games.
Days Gone is insane. Crazy game I tell you. Loved every minute of it. From maintaining your bike, to unlocking weapons and running from hordes
Bought it on PlayStation and on steam deck. Love the game
Never played this one but i have a feeling its in a similar boat Mad Max is. Amazing game totally overlooked by most people.
I like mad max broke my heart that we won’t get a part 2 cause if shadow of Mordor sequel could do some improve mad max sequel would of been perfect the combat would of been flawless
Days Gone has sold 9 million copies. It had sold 7.32 over 2 years ago. It was a success as regards numbers. I just don’t get it why no sequel. One of my favourite games.
I loved the game. If I had listened to the initial critics I would have passed on it. If a sequel was available I’d buy it day 1.
I love how a few of the devs that have "moved" on with other projects outside of Sony/Playstation seem to be sometimes extremely salty about their past glory days.
They have had years to come up with new ideas and games to prove to Sony they made a mistake... and none of them have done anything to show off.
I loved it and got the platinum
"The problem is not enough people bought it. If it sells 5 millions copies, Sony is gonna make a sequel".
My man it sold over 7 million copies as the Insomniac leak showed lol Sure these are not Spider-Man/GoW/Horizon/Uncharted numbers but for a new IP 7-8 million is solid, and pretty impressive considering it's in the zombie genre which is very tired at this point.
I can't say why Sony haven't greenlit a sequel but I highly doubt it has to do with the sales figures.
It only got to this number because of the sales and ps plus, unfortunately, which is really not the same amount of money compared to 7 mil copies sold at full price
@@user-th7yf1yl7vI doubt horizon sold 20 million full price copies same with the last of us. The only one that’s believable in full price figures would be spider man. I’m sure it still sold at least half the amount akin to 4-5 million. Also I believe those figures were from either 21 or 22. Regardless no matter how much I argue it’s not gonna change the disinterest from the company which is really unfortunate. I just don’t understand why they are making a movie then.
@@user-nn6ow3xt5o last of us for sure sold that much copies at full price if not very close to it I love Days gone but there were a lot of problems with it a launch
How many of those sales were at full price or at discounted prices or from free ps+ copies?
Because Days Gone seque successful could jeopardize Last of Us franchise
Days gone is so straight for current sony
yup
Yeah IGN had a lesbo review it and shit on it cause she doesn't like a Hero Male
One of the dumbest comments I’ve seen..::
No it just didn’t sell well
@@ThanosdidtherighthingHe's not wrong though. It's not gey, black and toxic enough.
Days Gone is amazing.
The way the game ended i assumed there was no need for a sequel. Very underrated game though,i enjoyed it.
I remembered seeing Days Gone and being interested due to Sam Witwer being in it, but thinking "Eh, it might not be good, I'll pass." I ended up picking it up on a sale on the PSN, and was very happy with how good it was. It wasn't any one thing that I can point to, it was a bunch of tiny details that it did, that just made the whole quality of life experience so much more fun. Like how the fast travel system was unlocked when you literally cleared the road of threats between 2 points. Until you did that, you couldn't FT there. And when you did clear it, you still had to account for time and fuel in the FT, which meant you still might not make it the whole trip before running out of gas. OR, you might decide to just travel it yourself, because you could usually drive the distance manually MUCH faster than the FT system. And sometimes you were working on a timer, and that was the higher priority. Further in keeping with the bike, I loved how the muffler on your motor was a key component, because loud noises is a BAD thing in a zombie apocalypse, encouraging the player to do things like cut the engine and coast whenever going downhill, both to conserve fuel and to reduce detection from zombies.
I loved how the story system worked as these independently tracked arcs that you could track and follow at your own pace. I loved the various supporting cast of characters, who all felt VERY fleshed out and real, even if they were ultimately just a quest dispenser from a mechanical standpoint. I ESPECIALLY loved the character who ends up betraying the party later on, because at first I thought they were going to go against the trope, and not have him end up being a badguy, because nothing he was saying was actually WRONG. In fact, 9 times out of 10, the goal he wanted, and the motivation for that goal, were in line with the protagonist. But for some reason (that I personally think wasn't actually warranted in the script), the protagonist just hated him. But I loved that conflict of "Yeah I don't like you, but I agree with you" that they had going on for the game.
Overall, it became one of my favorite zombie survival games of all time. And it is a shame it didn't do well given what we ended up getting.
dont blame customers for not buying it at full price if the game is full of bug and game breaking glitches
Please give us a sequel!!!!!!
Only way days gone would get a sequel, would be if they made Gays Gone the big number 2!
Id preorder
We know there's no sequel coming because Sony Bend is being fed to the live service grinder as punishment. There's no way they're able to work on a Days Gone sequel and dredge out a crap live service game at the same time.
This game had a white dude with a wife. It was instantly disliked by the mainstream gaming activists. Even remember Lucy o brian (IGN activist) hating when his wife says during their wedding vows "Ride me as often as you ride your bike"
That really got under her skin 🤣
Someone should remind her that she's literally alive today because a heterosexual white guy and his wife once had sex.
Big facts can’t have a straight white dude
Yea I remember the weird review cycle for this game. "Oh it's just another generic white guy" lol, like bruh, Deacon is actually a pretty cool character.
And didn't she also complain that the zombies were too white lol
@@SolidSnake240 That mentality is actually pretty F-ing racist though. Try to say that about any other race and you would get burned alive. Even if Deacon was generic so what? Most people in the US are generic white men and women. Sometimes we need more average protagonists anyway for more relatibility. Like Ethan in RE7 and RE8.
They also ignore Delsin Rowe, despite him being in a fantastic game.
It still got a PC port before bloodborne.
Every time someone uses a ceo's quote to make a point it's kinda funny, since it rarely holds up if ever.
A lot of people don’t remember that the game was so bad at launch, that they had to release a pretty big update that included them removing the branching narrative mechanic from the game altogether.
My brand new ps4 pro at the time barely maintained like 20 fps while riding the motorcycle and the sounds in the game weren't synched up with the motorcycle
My favourite one was when the game needed to load in PS1 level textures sometimes during cutscenes. There is that one scene where the wife gives Deacon a note and the texture was so bad that I couldn't read it, but apparently it was an important plot point as I saw that cutscene online.
That game had some pretty awful tech problems on an otherwise solid game. The game itself wasn't amazing and then the tech problems kinda killed it for me.
He said 7 million copies in the first year and a half. I highly doubt the game was super cheap only a year after launch. Then another million on Steam which would have been full price or close to it for a decent amount of time (6 months or so?). It's been cheap ever since they put it on PS+. It's likely well over 10-12 million units now that it's been on sale for a few years, but I think Sony was expecting 10 million units sold in that first 12-18 month period and they only reached 70% of that. Sony's expectations were too high for a new IP. It may be able to hit those numbers today after so many people have played it on PS+ or through a big sale and there's not nearly as much competition (Sony has zero 1st party games this entire year and usually only have 1 or 2 a year) as there was in the PS4 era when Sony was releasing huge 1st party games on a more regular basis. I think it was worth giving the IP one more shot before killing it. If a sequel didn't sell well and had similar bug issues at launch, then oh well, they gave it a chance and people would understand Sony Bend having to move on. The fact that Days Gone never got that chance is what's pissed players off. There was greatness there. It was just a matter of tapping into it.
It sold over 7 million copies dude
Days Gone is a beloved game by many now sure, but the game was criticized on release for many bugs and framerate issues on release. They only have themselves to blame for people not buying their game full price on launch.
They don't want white male protagonist led games. The game was okay, but it also lives in a void. In a time we were spoiled with games it meant less. I feel that way about alot of movies I never liked now they dont make certain types of movies so i appreciate them more.
Have you heard of Spider-Man? Sold 33 million units last time I checked he was white lmao
@@ColesLab Have you heard of Miles Morales?
@@ColesLab I could never have dreamed a scenario comparing spiderman to deacon from the last of us lol.
Miles morales is only 10 years old tho 💀🤡 you dweeb
@@NicCrane was miles morales the main character in Spider-Man 2018?
Every award laugh and like like makes it harder to take you seriously
Director of the original game already said why sequel isn't happening. It didn't sell well at launch, lots of people got it on sale, for free, or on PC and none of that matters. The launch window (3-6 months) is what matters, if you don't buy it then it doesn't matter when you buy it, it won't tell them you want more.
don't worries guys i know one guy who is working on Days Gone style game he is pro Indie Developer and very skillful person soon in this year u will see a the news about the game on stream and then please support him.😊😊
Its a great game.
There are a few number of games that deserve a sequel and Days Gone is one of them, yet there is no hope for us Days Gone fans
I remember watching the IGN review that gave Days Gone a 6/10 and I was like "wtf?" because I was only a few hours into the game. I thought it was a solid 8/10... but then I continued to play and I see why they gave it a 6/10.
If I'm being honest I feel like IGN was being pretty generous lol... Don't get me wrong, I love Sam Witwer and I was super excited about this game and was even really enjoying the first few hours, but damn bro the story was so ass I genuinely couldn't stand it. I was cringing at every other cutscene but I muscled through because the gameplay loop was fun... then it wasn't anymore. The cracks in the gameplay started to show around 5-6 hrs in for me but I was still having fun, but it was only a few more hrs (around the 10hr mark) where I realized that this was just an open world mobile game without the microtransactions. They tried to do the Far Cry thing but somehow worse and the survival elements were so wack. I liked the idea of maintaining my bike but unfortunately it's just a really shallow mechanic... you just crank a knob when it takes damage. I thought it would be more interesting than that, kinda felt like a useless watered down mechanic.
Also, this "oh the game failed bc white man" narrative is just copium lol. Game just didn't do well man, get over it and stop forcing politics into everything.
days gone gave me Red dead post apocalyptic vibes. I could only imagine what Rockstar could do with an ip like Days Gone
days gone, sold the same unit as gots before it went on sale. Saying it didn't sale well is a complete lie!
the best thing about days gone is how after all the feedback how good two could have been.
I agree with the notion of "if you want to support a studio/game/developer, buy the game on release at full price" BUT..... we have all learned (unfortunately from experience) that most games are buggy or unfortunately unplayable upon release and most of us know to wait a while for those bugs to be fixed. It's a double edged sword because instead of looking at overall sales, they want release day/week/month sale numbers without taking any of the above into account! I loved days gone and would love a sequel but I know it s not going to happen now which is such a shame!
it's a real shame we may never see anything with days gone because it was a great game😢
I have yet to play Days gone....maybe I should while I wait for black myth
Guys which platform would you recommend to play it? PS5 or PC?
PC if you don't care about platinum's trophies. It looks and runs amazing on PC. Highly recommend it I think you'll have a blast.
On pc it's on sale on steam for 12 bucks it's worth it.
I love days gone, we need a sequel
Great game. Almost done with my first play thru.
To be totally fair to Bend studios, this was their first console game before making Uncharted Golden Abyss for the vita handheld and being a vita support studio for some projects. The product they released was very solid but unfortunately it didn’t sell well for whatever reason and majority of its sells came from discounted price months after release. While this was happening Bend devs were very comfortable about talking about a possible sequel even after the poor sell figures. But all of this change the moment John Garvin made the huge mistake to tweet out certain tweets blaming it on social discourse. No matter how you feel he essentially muddied the waters for any possible sequel indefinitely.
If a second game was made and released on PC at launch, it would do 10mil easy. First game sold around 9mil copies
I think all the game critics just excessively and unfairly dogged on this game at launch and sorta caused everyone to just echo those opinions without really giving the game a fair shot. It took a few years for people to realize the game isn't trash like people were saying it was and finally start giving it the love it deserved. That was probably a large proponent as to why Sony doesn't really like to affiliate with the game given their pitch perfect track record of games over the years.
Days Gone, not havin’ a sequel is plum absurd, strange, and somethin’ that’s beyond my reckonin’! It’s downright confoundin’! With all due respect, everythin’ points to it havin’ good sales and a tidy profit. I just can’t fathom it-it’s a real head-scratcher!
Hordes are Accessible at the beginning of the games and there are loot locations that have premade attractors, pipe bombs, mollys & grenades, which make it doable early game.
We have known Sony cancelled Day Gone 2 since 2021. We have known that the creators had left the studio since 2020. We known Sony killed the franchise.
While the horde system does get introduced later in the game like you said Luke, technically you can start taking on hordes right from the get go if you’re up to the challenge. There’s like around close to 10 of them in the first area of the game where you start.
Sony has really lost the plot.
I think it also comes down to that ending as well after you beat it
Go read Eurogamer's Days Gone review. It's still up and the critic is very clear that they dislike the game because of the protagonist's race, gender, and sexuality.
days gone was my first ps5 game completed
After RDR2, Days Gone is my favorite game ever. It’s a shame there won’t be a sequel.
Sony doesn't want Days gone sequel successful Overshadow Last of Us franchise

Sony only seems to care about high review scores. They haven't made a good business decision since the launch of the ps5
Yet the PS5 is selling like crazy.... Weird right?
@@Tuntira I don't think it's selling crazy right now, definitely back when scalpers would buy out an entire stores inventory. This is why I said launch of the ps5, gotta lookout for those context clues
@@max_well2077 The PS5 has been doing better than the PS4 at the same time of release. SO even after the scalper situation it was still selling like crazy. This is from data as of 2 days ago.
Please note that while I do not agree with everything that Sony has done in this gen, one has to admit that they have been quite on the money for the most part of their decisions thus far. That could change, but for now, one can imagine that the decision makers are being treated (or treating themselves) to healthy bonuses.
Finally got Days Gone recently...looks great to me!
Also how the hell do you know you love a game until you play it? That's the biggest problem with these companies making decisions based off initial sales. They either gloss over hidden gems or steamroll out sequels to good games that fall flat.
I loved it. I played it later in it's lifespan so most of the issues were fixed.
I’d love for them to take the Days Gone formula and apply it to another post-apocalyptic type game, similar theme to Mad Max / Fallout or a new spin on a P-A game
Days Gone is a top 5 game for me and really wish Sony didn’t F up the second one.
I didn't own a Playstation until very recently and love zombie games. So, unfortunately, I had to wait until it dropped on Steam, and they just so happen to be running a sale for it. I think exclusivity can really make or break a game depending on hype, marketing, or even being a well-known I.P.
Days gone Was so much fun 🎉
It was a fun game to play during the lockdown ngl. I was surprised it never got a sequel 😕
I don’t understand why people say you don’t get hordes until the last part of the game … am I the only one who ran into the death train horde with a pistol, a bad rifle and a crossbow? You can hunt hordes immediately after the introduction…
Sony punishing Days Gone basically because people bought it on sale is dumb. Imagine AMC resenting and canceling Breaking Bad from mostly gaining its popularity for airing on Netflix when the first three seasons were airing weekly that nobody watched. People eventually bought and enjoyed Days Gone. That right there should be enough reason to create a sequel.
It is a tremendous game. And the soundtrack is great! “Soldier’s Eyes” is one of my favorite songs now.
Deacon yelling really killed it for me.
When Days Gone launched, it felt like another Zombie game. Plus it has too much bugs. Have a nice day.
the bugs like those when a bear appears at you when you finished killing Zombie horde or the screamers Zombie that appear after you succeed in a job this never bothered me those bugs was as a challenge to me.
