Cant wait to play it, watching Cohhcarnage currently and it looks realy good fun, i enjoy mindless action games with guns and vehicles, was hoping for 7/10 as an average score.
Most games are better than Days Gone, what a dull game.
You could tell this was going to be the outcome the second Jason Schreier took offense on Twitter. You could basically hear the wagons being circled.I don't know. The reviews all kind of come off like 'I don't like the developers anti game journalist tweets so I'm going to let it taint my review' kind of feeling. I'll wait and see what oneangrygamer has to say about it. If he says it's a 7 out of 10, then I'll know it really is.
One 6, and from IGN who are nothing more than a meme these days with zero integrity, and they play on that. All the other scores have been 7's and 8's, or the equivelant.I expected 8s and 7s but damn not 6s
he said buy on PC,on consoles there are some issues from what he said in the review
I know rightJesus Christ, what are people freaking out for?
Scores are in the 7-8 range, which typically indicates that the game is decent. Some a little lower, some a little higher.
Looking at the comments you’d think it was scores in the 4-5.

I stand corrected, but the point still stands. One 6, all the rest 7 or 8.The 6 is from gamespot. 8 by IGN.
And ye after the 5 for days gone I don't think I can ever take them serious anymore.
I expected 8s and 7s but damn not 6s
Open world is always better. Linear is so old school and dated imo. I like to do what i want, when i want, and how i want.They might should have gone for a more linear and packed game over an empty open world.
It’s feels like most western developers no longer care about putting proper level design in their games so they just go for “open world” instead.They might should have gone for a more linear and packed game over an empty open world.
About what i expected. Good solid review scores for a good solid game.
People need to get out of this mindset that anything below a 9 means a game sucks.
Gamespot have Days Gone a 5 and I love it
They gave this a 6 so it’s probably gonna be my GOTY
I hope you dont mean me because i said in 2 seperate posts that the 7's and 8's were spot on with Days Gone, and that the 4's and 5's were ridiculous.What’s interesting to me is seeing some of the people who dogpiled Days Gone turn around and defend this games scores and critiques (which are similar).
People should just be consistent. That’s all I ask.
I’m buying this game, for sure, and just like I was certain I would enjoy Days Gone, I’m certain I’ll enjoy this.
I don’t buy into “repetitive empty open world” critiques. Frankly this line has become almost more cliche than the open world genre itself. Open world games are what you make of them
Agree, but how much did the purple Mohawks add to the score? I wouldn't listen to any of what these big sites say anymore, one way or another. People really need to get out of these metascores as well. If they would have made Rage 1 + Mad Max I would have bought this day 1, but I feel like it shouldn't even be called Rage 2 at all. (I might be picking this up at some point)
We laugh about this now, and at the end of the year my bet is Days Gone wins some GOTY awards.
This why people should read actual reviews instead of just looking at the score. The issues might other reviewers had with the game might none issue for you or things reviewers personally do like but for you it might be negative.About what i expected. Good solid review scores for a good solid game.

Rage 1 was open world, well semi open world. Hub areas joined by roads.Wasn't Rage 1 a corridor shooter? Everyone trying the open world now it seems.
It made sense doing a Rage 1 plus a Mad Max, what Mad Max did well, the cars/driving/day-night cycle/etc. Rage didn't do well, and what Rage did well... Mad Max didn't i.e. combat and story, cutscenes, etc.Wasn't Rage 1 a corridor shooter? Everyone trying the open world now it seems.
What doesn't look good? Most scores are in the 7-8 range with a few a little lower and some a little higher.Ouch that doesn't look good.
Things are not going well for bethesda right now .
I dunno if I would recommend even read Gamespot review.
They said that the game lack...charisma? Hows that even a valid complain?
They also mention that some parts are technically easier with the tools you got(maybe hes playing on easier difficulties? Maybe someone can clarify this because he mentions that he likes missions on a higher difficulty). Also nitpicks everywhere, complaining that the "mission complete" announcement interupts the "flow of the game".
It really felts like the person who played is like this:
"Ah c'mon, do I have to play this game? But I'm bored of playing games...oh well its my job, I think I can say bad things and get this done already".
To be fair, the horrendeus art style killed the game long ago for me. A game needs to be pleasent to look at and this picture alone screams "please don't buy me" imo:
The first rage was pretty flawed as well, but at least it looked nice. I could look past the 7/10 scores because I think the majority of the reviews mentioned that the gunplay is really solid, but not in purple and pink. I'm not 13 anymore.
I liked that style.At least looked nice? It was just brown-the game
It’s feels like most western developers no longer care about putting proper level design in their games so they just go for “open world” instead.
I personally hope western developers obsession with making every game “open world” slow down a bit so we could see proper level design.
Speaking of Rage 1, i just finished a playthrough of it this week and man the graphics at times still look amazing, at least maxed out on PC. Good solid game as well, just like this one seems to be.
I thought the game was 60fps on the X and Pro?Looks like the first game this generation where consoles genuinely can't keep up.
Looks great fun on PC, painful on console.
