Days Gone was such an underrated game I loved it and its still my favorite game

I’ll never forget cresting a hill in Days Gone just to roll up on a massive horde that immediately started sprinting at me. One of the scariest moments in my time gaming and also the funniest. 😂

Every comment is basically about Days Gone 😅 I hope they see this and understand how much we need a sequel.

I picked up Days Gone randomly one day, I was like "why not". The biggest surprise I ever had. It has a deep, sweeping story that had me committed the whole time. It nailed that "getting by in the apocalypse" vibe that's so hard to pin down. Everyone is trying to revive the past either to fight the present threats or find meaning. The dialogue works too, really well. The man who wrote it actually wrote the Syphon Filter series too so no wonder. There's this pervasive sense of forlorn hope in everything and it's such a sweet tone. The game design is also relevant and very approachable, taking down your first horde - can't beat that feeling.

Days gone is one of the best and underrated zombies games ever. The sheer amount of zombies on the screen at once is pretty awesome.

I play Days Gone each passing year again and again from the start. It never gets old and fun like hell...

I'm going through some rough stuff in my life at the moment. Thank you gameranx for giving me peaceful content to veg out to. As odd as it may sound, it is helping me alot. ❤

Days Gone absolutely needs a sequel. That game was and is amazing. I can't believe it got shat upon so hard.

Days gone is of the only few open world games which I competed and felt like I was craving for more, this is one of if not the best game that I have ever played period, this deserved so much love and appreciation, the story the pacing the intrigue everything just perfect, what a perfect console game, just relax and play, man I am just so happy that this exists

I loved playing through the Last Guardian! Really have never played anything like it but it was unique to guide Trico. It was frustrating but I wanted to see it through its emotional ending. It reminded me of bonding with my dog. Thanks for the shoutout Falcon!!

Days Gone surprised me in the best way possible. I had never heard from that game, but I regularly scour steam for zombie games hoping to find one - preferably an RPG game. I suddenly found this through that search and was pleasantly surprised. This is exactly the kind of game I've always wanted. An openworld zombie game with some survival elements. Loved it. It could have been even better with more random openworld events and more survival elements, but I still had an absolute blast with it.

I loved Days Gone- definitely needs a 2nd game.

Spec Ops: The Line was the first game I bought at launch price, and I wasn't disappointed. Beautiful, amazing, heartbreaking game. I absolutely adore Nolan North. Uncharted is one of my all-time favourite series. So when he's involved in a game, I pay attention. Spec Ops is also one of the first games where I played through and completed the super hard difficulty levels and challenges. It felt so good. I've watched Days Gone through and loved it. Right up my alley. Can't wait till I can get a copy to play for myself.

Days Gone needs a part 2 the fact that its taken this long for people to like it is beyond me i have enjoyed it since day 1

Days gone is so so so underrated, deserves a part 2

Days Gone is still to this day one of my all time favorite single player games EVER! The story was incredible and totally took me by surprise, and Ive never played a game before where I started out hating the main character as much as I did and than doing a complete 180 on my feelings for them as the story progressed. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend

Control was a massive surprise and WAY ahead of its time. It deserves a TV show of its own.

Just finished Days Gone yesterday. 100% recommend it! It starts incredibly slowly introducing the world, but after 10 hours I couldn’t put it down

I'm playing through Days Gone for the first time in this period. Really goated game

Alpha Protocol is one of the best games I ever played. I wish they would do a re-make or a re-master. I still think about it to this day.

I'm currently doing a 2nd playthrough of Days Gone. As much as I love the story/gameplay/the bike mechanics and the world. I'm seeing now that it is really underbaked. There's so much in this world that is left to be desired. I went into Copeland's camp a few nights ago and instead of going to see Manny or speak to Copeland for a quest I started wondering around the camp. I was in awe of how detailed the camp was. It genuinely looked like a survivor's camp that was built around a big tree.... and then I got to the guard posts. There were multiple of them. On different levels of elevation and they seemed to be in the perfect spots for taking out enemies. Yet, you don't use them. They're just there. Imagine a mission where a horde was coming down onto a camp and you along with NPCs were tasked with culling them, while you fire from the guard posts. And that's basically the entire world of Days gone. It is so detailed, but under utilised, and as a result it loses out on moments you could've had in game, especially because the world can be dynamic. Every building allows you to enter it. Imagine finding a small family hiding out in one of the buildings while a bunch of raiders or freakers were outside it. While trying to complete that a horde could've been in the area and came hunting for you. It would've made exploration so much more captivating more so than just finding resources. It could have even evolved into you needed to escort this family home again. It would've given more depth to making the roads safer by clearing out freaker nests, other than just opening it up for fast travel. I fault nothing else of the game. I love the shooting mechanics even though a bunch of people complained about it. I love the bike and how conservate you need to be (even though people complained that the bike got damaged and ran out of petrol too fast), I love how it's like a ubisoft map but not exactly. I love how small and detailed the map is. I started traversing it without using a GPS when I needed to go somewhere. AND THE HORDES, my god. They're amazing. My wish was that we got a part 2 that kept this same map, they didn't even need to update the graphics. That could've been carried over to the PS5 flawlessly. I just wanted them to flesh out the world a bit more. Make it fuller than it ended up being in the game we got. Thanks for coming to my TED talk :)

Days Gone is AMAZING, but it has a really tedious start, but if you keep playing, you realize how much depth it has.

I loved Days Gone when it came out, I never understood why more people didn’t like it back then

I think Quantum Break doesn't get enough love. Granted when I played I had absolute zero expectations I was still met with an ambitious game with a nice story and great acting on the live action cutscenes. The gameplay was really fun and fluid with a fair challenge.

Manhunt. Got it not long ago on the new console and although it's dated, the violence.... my goodness, the brutal violence, gritty and dark atmosphere, it was just exactly what you wanted out of a Rockstar game that wasn't Red Dead or GTA. Definitely worth going back to.

Days Gone is one of my favorite games of all time. It's a complete travesty that they haven't greenlighted a sequel to it

Days Gone for me is top 10 games of the last decade

Days Gone - Started it two months ago and it's now on my Best List. Really well put together.

I remember seeing the early trailers/gameplay for days gone and being so hyped for its release. It is by far one of the best games I have played, currently playing it again for the 3rd time going for the platinum. Never get tired of it, the story, the gameplay and the amount of zombies you encounter. And the setting to, riding your bike through a zombie apocalypse is so fun

I wish they would make a days gone 2

Control is one of the best games ever made. The story, the lore, the gameplay, the atmosphere. My first platinum trophy lol can't wait for the sequel 🔥🤌🏽

Good video, Gameranx. A game I've gone back to in 2024 is Sleeping Dogs. I'm not normally a fan of Open World games but Sleeping Dogs is just really good. The story, the characters and the combat are great. I also like the soundtrack too.

I LOVED Watch Dogs 2. To me, the goofier cast didn’t match with machine guns and RPGs, so I played the whole game “non-lethal” with only hacking, melee takedowns, and the shock weapons. Made it a lot more immersive for me!

I was just playing Mad Max and was thinking how that game should've been listed. I do know that gameranx loves mad max and has advocated for it a couple times now but god damn...that game is just so fun. The atmosphere is great, from the combat, to the driving, taking on convoys on the road, even the sound design of the engine of your ride...the game is just so SATISFYING! MAD MAX FTW

No game has ever given me as much of an adrenaline rush as Days Gone. It is so satisfying when you finally manage to finish off the massive hordes. Yes, even more adrenaline pumping than beating a boss in Elden Ring.

I did not play Unity on release thankfully. So for me this is one of the best games I have ever played (on PC). Great shout out

Web of Shadow was such a fun game. My friends and I discovered some whacky glitches in that game back in the day but they just made the experience even better.

I replayed Shadow of the Colossus a week ago and it still blew my mind how amazing the mechanics are in that game. And that last Colossus was still one tough SOB...

Quantum Break was soo good. Its a shame how it underperformed, because a sequel would be so amazing and was set up great.

We all know days gone was shitted on because sweet baby inc didn’t get their way with the game

man ac unity was such a ride for me. i played it for the first time in 2022 and i loved it. it felt awesome to return to traditional AC after trying and failing to get into the newer ones. what an underrated gem honestly

Days Gone is my favorite zombie-game. I like the story, and sure the pacing could be better, but the core gameplay makes up for pacing by being excellent.

Max Payne 3. Got slammed because it wasn't an carbon copy of 1 and 2 but I loved a lot of what it did. Still some of the best 3rd person shooting around.

Playing Dark Arisen right now. Wanted to try it after playing Dragons Dogma 2. Loving it so far

Unity's lighting is great. I love it. Sure, Black Flag will always hold a special place in my heart but Unity is damn fun.

Gameranx really rubbing it in and reminding me the games that are sitting Idle in my steam library

I hope Days Gone 2 and Ghost Of Tsushima 2 happens, but one of them at least, I know in my heart isn't gonna happen.

I didn't hear about Days Gone back in 2019, so only discovered it recently and definitely think it's great.

I played Unity the first time back in 2020 right when COVID hit and it was such a visual stunning game. It really felt like virtual holiday at that time. Played origins and odyssey right after it and they were just so massive and padded out. Unity was truly the epitome of the assassins creed series in terms of movement and flow

Days Gone was the best game on the PS4. It's crazy that its not getting a sequel

Funny this video came out yesterday...without any knowledge of this great post I re-downloaded yesterday and have jumped right back into this masterpiece! Started the new game + and looking for hordes to air out!

Days gone is a great underrated game and beating the sawmill horde feels so good would love to see a sequel.

Days gone still my fav zombie game...Its underrated for sure....Best part is you can use hordes to clear marauder camps or story mission like clearing nero troops lol... its a fun game... I would play it all over again...

Pre ordered days gone had issue on day one but after a few patches it ran great. On the PS5 it runs fantastic on the PS is extraordinary.

Unity is my second favorite ac ever and the graphics still hold up so good to this day

I love Days Gone. I really wish that Days Gone 2 happen and it happen with a bang

Days Gone was FRIGGIN awesome. Great music discovered in it too. Loved it. Would TOTALLY play a 2nd entry!!

Alan Wake II was one of the few AAA games I've played recently where I quit 1/3 through out of utter boredom. Yet Control was one of my all time faves and I've replayed it twice so far.

Just started a playthrough of Watch Dogs on the PC. Downloaded a couple mods and the game runs and looks beautiful. Glad I gave it another shot so many years later.

Days gone is a wonderful game with a slow story start. Plays great on Ps5

I bought Days Gone twice. I played it at a PAX event and was sold, I couldn't wait for it to release. Awesome game.

As someone who just got to it last year after it went on gamepass, i can confirm Quantum Break still plays great now and is definitely worth your time if you haven’t played. If you like Alan Wake or Control and haven’t played, then you absolutely should- it will scratch that same itch and it’s just wonderful tbh. The live show tie in components are good if you just accept them as homage to 90s style Sci-Fi, the same way alan wake 1 is an homage to suspense thrillers. The nice thing too is that if you don’t dig them, they are absolutely skippable. They only cover side characters and fill in the details of everything happening around the main story. Opt in or out, it’s really your call.

The cinematic presentation and various story choices of Baldur's Gate 3 along with the combat and environmental reaction of Divinity Original Sin 2 would be my dream game

Titanfall 2 You deserved better. o7

Days gone is a great game. We definitely need a part two.

I remember being so hyped for Alpha Protocol when it launched. But I never got around to playing it. Its been in my Steam Library ever since just sitting there lol.

Was just thinking of Spec Ops: The Line when finished the list, and then you mentioned it!

AC Unity blessed me at launch with zero bugs and to this day its my favourite AC game. Loved the customization, co op was fun, and it had hands down the best movement and parkour system, so much great little details.

Days gone was so good in the late game

Nice mix of games in this ranking 🌞

Quantum break was one of the first titles I played on my series X. It really left a great impression on me.

I am super excited about Days Gone. Those who have played it know how good the foundation is for the sequel.

Days gone should get a sequel it was phenomenal

Ah I love videos like this where you show a minute of gameplay!

I pretty much play Days Gone all the way through at least 2-3 times a year. It is just one of those games that I get drawn back to every few months. It is so comfortable and fun. A great world to just drive around and do stuff in.

oh i thought you meant like games returning/coming out in 2024 i was like wow they're making a a sequel to days gone that's cool dang

DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 DAYS GONE 2 (I know it will never happen - cry emoji)

Its always good to see AC Unity getting love and appreciation 🔥👏

Days Gone was such an amazing game. It's criminal that we never got a sequel

It's actually possible to play most of the Last Guardian in 60 fps on PS5, but you need the disc version. There's a few sticking points where you need to update to the 30 fps version to avoid crashes so it's not the smoothest experience but I found it much more playable at 60 fps.

Days Gone is gem. Been gaming for 30 years and it's in my top 3 of best games ever made. I even bought a motorcycle after playing it.

Quantum Break is by far underrated. Its really fun. You can essentially watch the live action cutscenes as a standalone. It was one of the first games I got for the xbox. Absolutely loved it.

I do hope that someday they revisited and give us a days gone 2. It was soooo fun for me. I could see them expand on that formula. It was great impo

I love you, Falcon

Played days gone last year and I love it! One of my favorite games

Alpha Protocol was one of the best games I have played. The dialogue options were so deep, only Obsidian and a selected few would offer them.

I was just thinking about The Last Guardian the other day. I wish they would release a remaster of that game. It would look so beautiful in 4K at 60 fps.

I never got far in days gone because i didn't want the story to end, after a year i finally continued what i thought was the last chapters only for the 2nd half of the map to open up and the realization i had pretty much an entirely new game to play.

quantum brake was actually what led me to buy and play control, ied say it got me into this style

I really love when Gameranx mentions Days Gone, my favorite game ❤

Days Gone is underrated it’s almost criminal. The critics really hit that one wrong (something we’re seeing again with Rise of the Ronin) and I think only reviewed it based off of the first 5-ish hours.

A, Single Player... you know... Single.

I started Bloodborne again after a few years still a masterpiece!

I stopped playing DG maybe 2 hrs in, came back to it a year or so later and it's one of my favorite games ever now

I loved Days Gone from the first trailer. I knew I’d like it, and I did. I have no clue how these goofballs didn’t.

Glad to see the love for days gone, underrated game for sure truly a gem

Beyond two souls deserves an honourable mention on this list, not for gameplay but for story games as a whole, going forward from that to games like until dawn you can really see how developers leaned into narrative driven games that sure were lacking in gameplay elements but leave you satisfied with good story and multiple endings to replay and see how your choices effect the story

I just played infamous second son for the first time and it was amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone on play station that can’t tried it yet

Days gone needs to come back
