I'm not sold on it yet, but Sony Bend has made good stuff in the past, so I'm keeping my eye on it.
Im excited for it! I'm not fussed if people think the Zombie theme is played-out.
The whole mercenary/motorcycles/apocalypse wrapping is all sorts of appealing to me personally.
I can't wait to explore that world and see what ways we can utilise the hordes in the gameplay.

I hope it's good for people who are excited but to me it just looks meh. Nothing I've seen about it has made me excited.
I haven't played it but it does look really cool. Wasn't much of a fan of the reveal gameplay, but the more recent one really caught my interest. Looking forward to it
I'm genuinely excited for Days Gone.
The horde technology, eco system dynamics, graphics and biker gang angle all tick boxes for me.
Sandbox gameplay opportunities could make this really fun to play.
I'm now very curious about the story, I hope its something very compelling akin to HZD.

Looks incredible. The last extended demo they did where it started snowing really sold me. Love how that path plays out completely different to the first path they showed. Snow affecting bike controls is good too.
I'm hyped for it, game looks gorgeous.

Yeah the horde stuff is what has me at the very least keeping a curious eye on it. If nothing else, it'll be an interesting game to see in motion.
Really looking forward to it, Bend normally make good games. I'll be there day 1.
The graphics look good for an open world game and while it's not a totally original concept, it looks like it will be a good game and the horde mechanic is very cool.

Ironically some of my favourite games have been 7/10 8/10 stuff.
Everything from Dead Space 2 to Divinity 2 Eco Draconis. I guess it's just that my expectations don't get carried away so I'm usually pleasantly surprised.
Overfatigued with post-apocalyptia these days, but then I had the same reaction to The Last of Us. Kept stopping at the 4 hour mark restarting it year after year, and then afterwards it became one of my favourite games of last-gen playing the re-master. Perhaps this will be similar and have characters worth caring a damn for.
The idea seems to be one note. Fighting a swarm of zombies seems like a cool technical achievement, but it's one that I imagine someone creating in a UE4 demo more than it being a fully fledged game. Not really a compelling idea imo
I think it will do well, but can't say I'm excited for it at all. Unfortunately I couldn't think of a more bland setting and generic protagonist, so it was an immediate turn off for me.
The initial reveal at E3 was one of the worst demos I saw at the show that year. The demo shown this year was better but did nothing to grab me either.
Hopefully Bend can prove me wrong as I would hate for this to be unsuccessful (like any game). I will definitely give it a short when it's out baring any issues but for now it's at the bottom of my list I'd say.

it interested me because its the same dude from the Force Unleased but every time they have shown it since which i think is twice? It has looked more and more mediocre for me. Probably still a rent, i do think the massive horde of zombies looks cool but with DeadRising 3 back in 2013 massive zombie horde doesn't do to much even tho yes they have more in this.
Agreed 100%. I'm just hoping that like The Order, it doesn't end up in $5-20 bins with no chance of a sequel (if the game warrants one).
The systems seem potentially interesting but the cost of paint doesn't. I dislike biker aesthetics and the American country vibe, and it feels like the type of setting is already well explored in other works. We'll see.
It looks like a fairly generic post-apocalyptic game with zombies to me. The main protagonist also looks very generic and uninteresting.
I know it's early, but I haven't seen anything yet that has made me think I might care about the world or the story. So far it just looks like: generic biker, lost love of his live, tough world, need to survive.
I really hope we get to see more soon and it turns out to be good.

Don't think it will looking at the nature of the game: open world published by Sony. The Order got torn apart before release because of its short playtime and linearity which was undeserved. It was a great cinematic experience, sad the way it ended. A sequel would have been cool
I think it's >that open world again, looks a bit bland and boring to me, based on what has been shown in E3. We'll see when it comes out.
If i'm honest I find the concept rather boring at this point. Hard for me to get excited about the game.

That's what most think of it, unfortunately. Not that I don't understand, but it's a shame. feel like it's being under appreciated than it should be.

I'd love to be proven wrong but it just looks like something we don't need. We have enough zombie-centric games. Of all the upcoming PS4 games I 'd have to say I have the least amount of interest in this one.
TLOU2 is going to overshadow this game anyway. Gameplay mechanics and whatnot may end up being really cool, but I just wish they chose a different setting and not more zombies while you're out in the woods. Seems pretty bland.
If I do end up playing it won't be right at launch.

Not sure how I feel yet, e3 demo was nice but I think I've had my fill of zombies in this decade.
Unless story/gameplay are amazing I might hold off for a bit.

I really like the Zombie Hordes mechanic, never seen anything like that. That's definitely the highlight in a game that otherwise seems a bit generic to me.
Looks really boring and by the numbers from what they've shown. The E3 demo this year was better compared to the one from the year before, which was just every single zombie trope mashed together to make a game. I expect it to get 8s at minimum since it's a 1st party story driven game and I also expect to not enjoy it much at all.
Nothing really stood out to me besides the first trailer with the amount of zombies on the screen but that seem to be scaled back in this E3 showing. But I hope they do end up making a good game.
I think i'm going to wait for the reviews on this one. It certainly seems like it has some potential, but it's also a tired genre to me. I've been watching the trailers and my interest is definitely piqued, it just doesn't seem like despite all we've seen we really know all that much about it.
