Your bait in this thread is starting to go mouldy lmaoIf only this was a GaaS game they could have fixed and improved the game post launch.
The Order was a totally different ball game. It was way too short and didn't havet enough gameplay segments for such a short game.70s is a... good score but honestly after 6 years and pedigree of Sony it's a big let down. I saw this coming a mile away. You can't just make a game this generic, this by the numbers and expect scores in the 80s anymore. It didn't work in 2014 when The Order did and it certain won't work now. Even Ubisoft has moved away from this sort of game design, come on its not 2009 anymore.
If only this was a GaaS game they could have fixed and improved the game post launch.
There are some crazy overreactions in this thread. The game's entertaining; it never, ever looked like some Game of the Year winning magnum opus. It's exactly what the Metacritic of 71 suggests it is: good, honest open world entertainment.
Like I wrote in my review, it's gaming comfort food: unremarkable but enjoyable all the same.
ESuch as? I mentioned the Order because we had a thread about it recently.
Not really. I don't care about the number, the criticism are pretty big. Narrative is meh and it plays like shit, but people somehow will find a way to make it an underrated game because they where so hyped about it. I don't like the world but fanboys comes to mind.
There is always a risk of this backfiring. Feels like Sony put the cart before the horse here.Is it? It's always odd when people essentially point out marketing teams doing their job lol. Doesn't matter is the game is a 2/10, their job is to sell it
Kinda bullshit that you got a warning for this post.
You can't call out people essentially doing free astroturfing and PR? Really? After all the thread and the post and the deflections? And not just with this game either.
I don't get why that's ok because in all those PR hype threads LoudNinja posted any negative decision was frowned upon for no reasons and the mods gave no warnings.

6-7 years of development isn't "rushed" lmao
are you really surprised people are calling a game getting 5s and 6s from a lot of major websites bad?
Again, not backfiring, it's just that they'll always market their games lol. I don't think Sony was necessarily delusional as to how good the game was, but it's still a game they're spending development money on, so they're going to market it. Just like how every bad movie still gets marketed the same as every good oneThere is always a risk of this backfiring. Feels like Sony put the cart before the horse here.
As long as they hire good writers its pointless to concern troll about before the game comes out.
https://worthplaying.com/article/2019/4/25/reviews/113991/Even with all the promotion we're seeing now, Days Gone still carries the aura of a title that could be miscast and possibly overlooked at a glance, like it was for me a few years ago. You don't know until you play, and this stands as one the more pleasant and satisfying surprises of the year for me. It's been a long road to this game, but the ride is worth it.
https://www.gameplanet.com.au/playstation-4/reviews/g5cbe508baec93/Days-Gone-Review/Days Gone is an ambitious new IP that borrows heavily from its influences. It still maintains its own identity and features some genuinely fun gameplay. It's unfortunately held back by countless technical issues, but if you're willing to tolerate these, the moment to moment gameplay is enjoyable. While there's nothing revolutionary about the game, it's worth a go if you're a zombie fan.
https://www.darkstation.com/reviews/days-gone-reviewBased on all of the trailers released before I got my hands on Days Gone, I really questioned whether or not there would be any new on offer or if it would end up as just another property trying to provide those Walking Dead moments of either gratuitous violence or unneeded sadness. What I played instead was a game that wanted to push past the darkness with its characters and see if there was anything left for humanity to live for beyond just surviving. Yes, it still provides that violence that only a post-apocalypse seems capable of, and the tech behind the writhing mass of freaker bodies in a charging horde was enough to cause me to put down my controller a few times because they "got me," but it all adds up to something that feels substantially more human than not. I would love to eventually see us move past these truly macho stereotypes when it comes to characters like bikers or soldiers, but I am happy with where these days eventually end.
But all the loudninja threads...... Bundy's excitement.... where did all go so wrong..
7 should be a decent score but we all know video game reviews have been different for a while now7 is a decent score is it not? Not every game has to score highly to be enjoyable though. Will pre order now.
Noting happened. It still looks incredible and it's still tense and inventive with a majority of postive reviews where almost every outlet played 2 versions before the newer ones.
I am litterally quoting the reviewers that played it. Story forced to hell and meh gameplay, read them, instead of cryingSomeone who played this game vs. someone who doesn't. Which one to trust?

The problem isn't the hype-mongers. The problem is when the hype-mongers dogpile anyone who dares have a contrary opinion. Love the game you never played all you want, but don't presume to tell someone else their opinion of a game they also never played is wrong simply because it isn't a glowing review.This is the problem when people on this site run full fucking free PR campaigns for games and studios and let their hype get wildly out of control. We get the usual faces posting multiple upon multiple threads pulled from the official PlayStation site/blog with no thoughts of their own, just copy and pasted videos. We got a hype thread with people discussing the glowing previews. It happens all the time but it's overlooked because it's strangely the norm. It's no wonder people expect the world and then feel let down when a game just turns out to be average to good.
I'll be picking this up in a few months with a heavy discount no doubt. The horde mechanic looks great, sadly it seems like it's not used enough.
HEHHEHEHEHHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHIt's funny, if you take this description out of the context of this thread, I could think you were talking about Odyssey, Far Cry, or even RDR2.
Their highest rated game in a decade is inFamous on PS3 and its 85. Their last major release on PS4 was an 80.Such a weird thing to say since Sucker Punch is a proven and reliable studio for Sony for three generations now.
GoT won't make nor break Sucker Punch.
Still coming at me with this shit some of you have issues.Kinda bullshit that you got a warning for this post.

I'm low on things to play so I was really hoping this would be good. Thank God I listened to reason and didnt pre-order. The scores I don't mind but nothing's worse than an open world with tedious, repetitive missions.
How does reviews of this compare with other zombie titles ? I read somewhere in this thread dying light got 7s and for me it was awesome
I thought the game looked great in previews and was certainly expecting a higher average score. I don't quite understand the "what did you expect" comments, I think the surprise is justified, at least to some extent.
