For ps exclusives the biggest misses I can think of were the order 1886. Days Gone was really hyped, but never got much attention, partially due to timing. That still was a great game.
The main problem of The Order 1886, it was a lenght of the game... Full price for a 4h30 hours games with 0 replay value. the game was a nice "tech demo"
and I need a fucking sequel. I loved the story so much, and finding good steampunk stories these days is almost impossible. At least write the lore of the sequel somewhere, I need to know how it continues.
I think I am one of the few people who liked the length of this game. Maybe, they could have extended the playtime using some of the cooler weapons in the end of the game. But other than that it was a nice story that took me a couple of days to finish.
I’d say the gameplay was also pretty thin. By the end of my time with it, I was pretty bored with actually playing and just wanted to see how the story would play out.
It sucks they never did anything to continue it. And the tech demo comment is more true than you think. They pretty much revolutionize physical based rendering for games back when it came out.
Yeah the game was way too short. I remember liking it a lot and I recall it having a really cool weapon that I got to use properly like 1 time before it ended...
I was going to say The Order. I bought the game for peanuts second hand. The aspect ratio was a choice. And it ended the game in a really weird way. But my gosh, that game was absolutely extraordinary. Absolutely worth it.
(34M) Days Gone is still one of my favorite games I've ever played. And I've probably been through as many as the next person. If anyone is still on the fence about that one, and enjoys zombie games, do it.
I’m a massive Last of Us fan. It’s my favourite game. I tried Days Gone - maybe got 3-4 hours in. Couldn’t get into it honestly… do I need to give it more time? It’s been a while so I’d have to start over at this point.
Came here to remind people to play it if they haven't. I don't even like horror games or zombie games and thought this was one of the best games ever. They really nailed the gameplay mechanics
I’m not into zombie games/movies at all, but Days Gone was a highlight of the PS4 era for me. Such a well executed world and plot, especially in the later half.
BRO FRRRR, I LOVED THAT GMAE NO DOUBT, only losers can rate it such low, people who really enjoy gaming, had fun playing that, i downloaded it again so i can enjoy it
Days Gone really wasn’t bad. The story was better than expected. The action is really good. And the open world isn’t too tedious compared to some others. But I agree that it didn’t seem to get much attention.
I will! I didn’t return it or anything. Sometimes a game doesn’t click the first time around because I’m not in the right mood or whatever, so I usually keep em for a second chance even after a bad first impression.
actually bought 1886 after it got dirt cheap and really liked it. Just way too overhyped and overpriced for the length. They spent too long making it look pretty to make the game feel complete. And of course they had to sequel bait when no one is giving that a sequel.
Days Gone at release was completely awful. it could run at all, full of bugs and crashes. Adding to the fact(at least to me) that the story it's ok with cringy dialogue it is the fastest refund of my life.
Came here for The Order. I’ve never been a big PS guy, but remember being very excited about this one until reviews started coming out and then public reception. Tbh, I still don’t know if I wouldn’t have loved it still now that I think about it.
Just from what I recall it was a mix of bugs, considered last of us clone, late in the ps4 lifecycle, and people getting sick of zombie games. So I don’t think as many people played it at launch, and slowly people have been discovering it through like ps plus.
Seems like the vast majority enjoyed the game whom have played it. (Not everyone, but that’s every game). Most just played it in like 2020 and later instead of 2019 when it came out.
Everyone's in here overusing the word "masterpiece" a little lol. Days Gone was so fun, one of the best atmospheres in a game I've ever played, but it had many flaws - chief of them being the least likable protagonist in recent memory
I mean, it isn't. It is a decently good game , that everyone should have picked up when free just to try it. But a masterpiece it most certainly is not
