Days Gone is my favourite ps4 Sony open world. Better than Horizon, Tsushima, Spiderman... But it's still a 7/10 game. 😅

Completely agree, the writing was bad, most of the main and sub missions were bad, I finished the game and can't remember most of it, only thing I loved from that game was the look of the city and driving in it. Gameplay was fine also.

what does that have to do with the PS4 launch being totally broken???

Outside Witcher 3 this was before digital downloads. Also cyberpunk worked just fine on ps5 at launch You're comparing apples to oranges

Okami platinum in 47 hours for me, Gene. Unless your comment about over a 100 hours was hyperbole

Theotokos Respecter

Yeah all of those were a massive disaster to the point that Sony offered refunds. Totally the same scenario lmao

I'm trying my best not to do it, but it takes about 5 seconds on PS5 and honestly, with a kid and a wife at home, I just can't stomach losing an hour of gameplay because a wild dog came out of nowhere 💀

I'm just going to point out it's super easy to save scum in Kingdom Come 2 by using the save and quit option.

Funny how people's memories are short. Witcher 3, 2, and 1 were buggy at release too

On updating reviews: no Release the game in a good working state. You don’t get a pass because you fixed it later. CD Projeckt is never getting a dime outta me again for releasing Cyberpunk in the way they did. They knew what they did and they don’t deserve an ounce of good will for what equates to scamming paying customers.

The writing in Cyberpunk doesn't even come close to the Witcher 3, idk how people say Cyberpunk is better. The writing/world sucks so much imo

Gooch Gobbler

I’m just impatient lol I need some direction with some freedom, the GOW games open areas are a good example of the level of openness I like. Maybe I will finally find a Bethesda game I like with this Oblivion remake

Drova is 20% off right now on PSN BTW just saw it

So happy to hear that Gene is playing days gone. There is one thing though about the hordes only showing up at the end of the game, there are actually 5 smaller hordes available at the beginning of the game. There are "loot" locations in the early hours you can find already made munitions you can use to take out 4 of those hordes. After those hordes are taken care of, you get the best side arm in the game. Spawnicus Rex has a best early game start that changed the way I play the game.

Not just me. A few reddit posts have talked about this issue. Warhorse is aware. https://www.reddit.com/r/kingdomcome/s/23Bvh028Qt My ps5 was cleaned 2 weeks ago. I do it every 6mths. Just because you don't have issues doesn't mean others don't. I also highly doubt you have seen only 1 bug.

Hey Gene, do you think it’d ever possible to get Suzi on? I love her vids.

Tyler Stafford

I loved when Brad was describing his experience with KCD2 and Lockmort just kept saying, "oh yeah".

Tyler Stafford

I think that might just be you man, time to clean out that PS5. I've put 40 hours in on the PS5 version myself and I've literally only had 1 bug that forced me to close the application.

Gene needs to peep them tootsies in first person games. Foot-freak status confirmed.

Brad, for the love of all that’s Holy, pre-read these write-ins.

To be fair, I feel like minimaps and quest markers, while not inherently bad, allow games to work with less thought out world design. Morrowind changed my perspective on this last year, before then I was in the same boat as you

Wayde

Kcd2 has major bugs like cyberpunk 2077 launch bugs. Goty don't have system and game killing bugs Including overheating the ps5. I can only play for a few hours at a time otherwise I risk destroying my system. Warhorse knows about this massive issue and is working on it.

NeO JD

The bugs definitely killed the Days Gone hype. We should’ve gotten a sequel.

Gooch Gobbler

Lockmort always describes games in a way that sounds so enticing the way he speaks but then the actual words he is saying sound like my nightmare. "There is no mini map...no direction....you have to put on underwear before your armor....you have to rest your feet". This is not the shit I wanna do in a game lol still waiting on them to fix Stalker 2 cause I actually wanna play that from his recommendations

Regarding long game lengths, I believe the excuse of just skipping optional game content is lame. It's in the game for a reason and if it makes the game feel bloated, then the game probably is.

Mike R

Thanks for reading my question about the KCD save system! I am, in fact, a gamer with a kid, so losing precious hours of game progress isn’t something I’m interested in. Without the mod I use for normal saving, I would just abuse the hell out of the Save & Quit option anyway. Maybe it would have made more sense to reserve the restricted saves to the Hardcore Mode and otherwise allow normal saving, since console gamers don’t have the option to mod it. Loving the game, though, and I agree with Lock’s praise for it!

Andrew Christensen

Lockmort! Praise Jesus Christ!

Bruh if a book is bad a chapter in I'm putting it down so if you think I'm playing 10-20 hours of a game for it to get good you're out of your friggen mind dude. That's a bad game

Dante B

Technical issues at launch not withstanding, Days Gone is one of the most confusingly shit on games in recent years. It’s a slow start, but I don’t even think it’s 10 hours to get good. It’s a legitimately great game.
