Days Gone for PC is an action adventure survival horror game set in a dystopian future in the state of Oregon. The game begins two years after the start of a global pandemic which killed most people and turned a lot of the rest into ‘Freakers’ which are mindless proto-zombies who are nocturnal and constantly evolving throughout the game, which is a great way to prevent the player becoming complacent!
About the Game
The game is played from a third-person perspective with the playing taking on the persona of Deacon St John. Deacon is on a mission to find his wife, last seen being evacuated to a camp later overrun by Freakers. However, Deacon has heard a rumour that his wife’s political influence might have been enough to have her bounced on to an even more secure location – and it is his hope that this is what has happened and that her can find her again soon.
The open world game gives you plenty of scope for exploration and you can use all sorts of things to defend yourself: from melee weapons, firearms for long shots and even improvised weapons when you are in a bind. Or, if the pacifist route is your favourite, you can also use stealth to dodge Freakers, and other people. Hostile uninfected humans include cultists called Rippers, and there are various militia and government bodies to assess for friendliness.
Deacon’s best form of travel is a motorbike, and it is so much more than just his mode of transportation. The vehicle holds much of your inventory, and also allows for ‘fast travel’ without which the game slows to a very sluggish pace indeed!
The game has a dynamic day-night system which is highly important to your progress and success, as the Freakers are slow and weak by day, but scarily fast and strong at night – not creatures you want to meet down a dark alley, low on both fuel and ammo!
The Nitty Gritty
As you play along the overarching story-line, there are plenty of missions and side quests to keep you occupied. Finishing missions completes some story lines and opens up other avenues of exploration. Sometimes these story-lines split up on themselves, so you can choose from more than one at a time – ideal if you need to wait for the right upgrade or resource in one thread as you can complete another in the meantime.
Combat moves feel satisfying and they come with skill trees that helps Deacon in a number of ways, from Deacon’s aim, to fighting melee battles with improvised weapons – these are particularly gory and satisfying.
The graphics are great too: Oregon has some truly beautiful scenery with rolling mountains, lush forests and detailed little towns, all of which respond to the weather changes which can jump from beautifully sunny warm days to full-on snow storms – so keep an eye on the clouds!
Deacon’s Motorbike
As mentioned above, Deacon St John’s motorbike is almost a character in its own right, and can benefit from cosmetic customisation at the beginning of the game, and also enjoys a range of power-ups and upgrades along the way. When choosing which upgrades to go for first, try these:
Fuel capacity. You are not going anywhere without fuel in the tank, and you don’t know when you will get your hands on any more – so make sure a fill up gives you plenty of range!
Speed is all you need! Well, not quite – but it is important and makes sure you can fast-travel across the map to complete missions and side quests and get the next chunk of story exposition under way
Durability is essential in any dystopia, and your bike is all that stands between you and a much more uncomfortable life, some days, so look after it! Deacon tinkers endlessly with his bike, trying to make it stronger, while every encounter with Freakers or hostiles sees it taking damage that must be repaired promptly so it doesn’t worsen
Manoeuvrability is also a good thing, when driving through Freaker hordes, dodging irate militia, and avoiding capture by the Rippers – whose name origins you really do not want to explore!
Ammo storage. The more bullets you have, the easily and clearer you path can be! More ammo is always useful, so make sure you can maximise the amount you carry!
Pro Tip! Going for the first two items on the list early on in the game, speed and fuel capacity, means that you can quickly make those early milestones without being bored or needing to hunt about for supplies. The other upgrades can come later once you can get where you need to without too much fuss.
Days Gone for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.
An Absolute Masterpiece, story and acting are top notch, the large open world of Oregons is also amazing, the story is damn long and even if sometimes it can feel repetitive, the game never got me bored, you can unlock many weapons and gadgets, build them after you get the resources and live the desolation of this open world, very reccomended.
Game is one of kind, i wish there will be days gone 2. If you are looking for something to spend time on and entertain yourself, believe me this is it. If I could I would delete my memory of this game and play it over and over again.
Gameplay, visuals and story are excellent in my opinion. I was unsure if I would like the game at first, but very impressed so far. The game also has an appealing soundtrack.
My only note of caution would be for those that call Jesus Christ their saviour. Most video games I've played avoid taking His name in vain, perhaps out of respect. This one does not show any such concern, using the name in many circumstances where expletives or exclamations would occur. Realistic for a real-world environment no doubt, but excessive in my opinion. Just a heads-up.
Really good survival game bits can be repetitive and spend more time refueling the bike but always something to do ,haven't come across much collectibles to keep the interest up in scavenging but seem to need to keep it up to keep ammo and weapons up to scratch, I like how it gets you on the edge of your seat when you think a zombie is closer than you though or the fact then enemy actively search for you for a good amount of time before they give up.
I really enjoyed playing this game. The map is beautiful, and I had a great time driving around to explore. The story is engaging and interesting, and I liked that you don’t stay in the same place all the time—each story progression takes you to a new location.
You spend a lot of time on your bike, and it’s really cool that you can upgrade and customize it to your liking. I would love to see a second part of this game because I had a lot of fun, and the developers did a fantastic job creating it.
This game was great, best open word apocalyptic zombie game, amazing details, good story, plenty of things to do and you just never get bored. I completely recommend this game!.
This has to be one of the best story driven zombie games I've ever seen or ever played. I can 100% see myself playing another one if we ever got a sequel some day. I had fun with all the different collectibles too, I didn't get everything but I did enjoy finding things when I did
Tedious game. The motorbike is 24/7 out of gas and the history is soooo boring. Every 2-3 mission you have to go to a tombstone to "talk about what happened" and is absolutely boring.
Days gone is a repetitive, yet fun, sandbox game based around zombie (freaker) killing. The graphics, storyline, and AI are all ok. But the gameplay loop of motor cycle customization, zombie horde killing, and player versus environment are what keeps people invested. It is truly a guilty pleasure I own on PC and playstation. At this price it's a must buy ($11)
There are some light crafting and faction building elements. Both are good for making players explore and experiment. The game isn't going to blow you away but it's a fun apocalyptic rump to jump in and out of. It's biggest strength is what creates it's weaknesses.
The game doesn't know what it wants to be. People compare it to Uncharted, Mad Max, Far Cry and World War Z. Or some call it the last of on motorcycles. I don't think any of these are wrong, but the game never lives up to the highs of any of the mentioned games.
Gameplay, vehicle customization, plenty of exploration.
Permanent weapons locked behind faction levels, repetitive missions and open world challenges.
