Finished Days Gone main storyline recently. The game so far has been much better than I thought it was going to be, especially considering zombie type games aren't my cup of tea. The game is only AA at best though. It's not up to AAA quality, but that's ok, it was still good for what it was.
The story has some flaws and plot holes, and doesn't always flow the smoothest, but works overall. The controls are a bit clunky and unresponsive at times as well. The graphics are pretty decent and the gameplay overall is fun. Dealing with the hoards in terms of planning on how to strategically take them down is something I wasn't expecting. I thought it was just going to be gun them all down, but that wouldn't have been near as engaging.
Sounds like a sequel isn't in the cards apparently. I'm a little sad to hear that. Bend certainly could've continued the story and improved upon what they already had accomplished. I am now interested in whatever Bend has coming next either way. I guess it's supposed to be a GAAS title, which also isn't really my jam, but after Days Gone I could totally see them being able to make something worthy. There's plenty of content in Days Gone. Way more than I was expecting.
