Days Gone was a great game, absolutely. I mean, it's overly long, gets repetitive, and it was one of the buggiest AAA titles (maybe the buggiest) I've ever played even a year after launch. All that said, I'd still buy the sequel day 1. The biker aesthetic was super fun, especially in that big open world PNW environment. The gameplay was super satisfying (the first time you take down a horde is a moment you will never forget!) The story is fantastic too. At the end of the day, I felt like I had been grinding forever and started to question whether I even wanted to continue (and you almost certainly will hit that point) the desire to finish the story was great enough to keep my shotgun pumping and the bullets flying. There was easily enough good things about the game that I'd be super interested to see what improvements they made. I have to wonder if Sony hasn't lost confidence in Bend studios to a degree.
@Leon_93 No one wants to play these games. So, I mean, sure. Release unknown games. I'm cool with that. Just pick a genre that actually has fans. Barely anyone plays these types of games. If your into them, that's cool. I truly hope you enjoy them. But the reality is, most people simply aren't interested. They don't have to release an Uncharted level AAA game every month or anything, but you can't tell me there wasn't an older, lesser known action game or RPG they could have released in place of one of those two.
