I got Days Gone for $12. Didn't play it for 6 months, then when I finally did it was the only game I played until I beat it, and it's not a short game
I don't like open world games anymore. I don't stick to one game ever and I don't usually bother with games over 25 hours but holy shit. Such an amazing game
It's taking everything I have to just not start a new game + immediately
I also really liked this one. I've seen other people complain about aspects of the story, but I felt like the story hit me way harder than it had to to be serviceable.
The story was great. I liked the world. The score was fantastic.
Again, I hate long games. Like >25. I finished this at 72. I wanted to do so much
Days gone was an absolute banger.
I also bought it on a steam sale, and then let it sit for several months.
Well, more accurately I bought it, downloaded it, installed it, and then spent hours trying to get it past the boot screen without crashing. Finally fixed the issue. Spent the next hour or so posting the issue fix to various forums unlike the last 500 assholes who fixed their issue and then fucked off.
Then I played about half the game and got burned out.
Sat it down for about two months and when I picked it back up I couldn't put it down again.
Had the same experiences with ghost of Tsushima, and last of us.
I liked this game too. I had to mod it right away to first person view, and after that it was enjoyable. Runs well on Linux too.
