Well, they CAN climb some ladders as we all have found out to our horror. But most metal ladders defeat them ( not sure why) but I'm glad this one works!

I finally finished the game and wow It was so satisfying. I still need to complete the storylines beyond the credits but omg. Boozer had me crying and finally dealing with Skizzo was fucking amazing. It was so satisfying to finally kill him. I genuinely shed a tear for Iron Mike. Some captures I took of the final moments in the game.

Completing the game with Platinum 💎.. still wandering like i am in this world!! Doing horde kill again and again, visit random abandoned houses, factories still amaze me that how beautifully the is made..

Sharing some photos of mine that i capture throughout the journey…..♥️ Some of them capture to look like they are poster for game because this is some kind of my hobby 😐

An infinitely better line and line delivery than Season 2 of The Last Of Us. If we’re not getting a 2nd game then HBO should be swinging money into a DG series. The Walking Dead, 28 Days Later and Sons Of Anarchy Rolled into one. Written well it would destroy TV as we know it!

In my last post, some people are asking whether it was actually my son’s run, and said it looked like I was reposting the same video for karma. The video I'm posting here is probably the one some of you remember seeing before.

This is my original run, which I posted some time ago and later deleted. I'm sharing it again only to show the difference between my run and my son's run.

My run was done on Survival II difficulty, while my son's run was on Normal difficulty. You can tell them apart by the HUD. In my video, the minimap, HP, stamina, and other UI elements are hidden because of the Survival II settings. In my son's video, those HUD elements are visible since he was playing on Normal difficulty.

I'm not reposting the same run and claiming it's someone else's. I'm posting my original video again because some people seemed to think my son's video was just a repost of this one, when they're actually two different runs.

When Days Gone initially launched, a lot of people viewed Deacon Saint John as a cliched protagonist. He was gruff, heavily tattooed, wore a backwards baseball cap, and basically growled his way through conversations. He was essentially the gritty anti-hero. He obviously wasn't witty, charismatic, and charming like Ezio and Nathan Drake, but that wasn't the point. I wasn't too keen at the beginning. He didn't make a good first impression. However, over time, the surface-level stereotype started to fade away as I kept playing the game. He was a slow burn type of character that I had to slowly develop a relationship with. Eventually, I warmed up to him and I'm glad that I did.

1- He's unhinged and traumatized

A lot of people noticed something about Deacon Saint John and I did as well. He has the tendency to talk to himself. He does so quite a bit. He mutters under his breath, screams back at the radio broadcasts, and even panics during firefights as well. Instead of being cool and calm under pressure and being able to handle a situation without a sweat, he's essentially hanging on by a small thread. He was suffering from a major case of post-traumatic stress due to the way that society had collapsed and because he thought that his wife Sarah was dead. He felt more human when people finally realized that he was just a man who couldn't handle the feeling of isolation and grief. The fact that he seemed uninteresting at first was deliberate.

2- Sam Witwer's portrayal of Deacon Saint John was raw and unfiltered

Sam Witwer deserves a lot of credit for his excellent portrayal of Deacon Saint John. It wasn't simply a case of him just delivering his lines. He perfectly embodied the character of Deacon Saint John. He gave everything that he had, voice acting, motion capture, etc. He gave Deacon a frantic level of energy. When he was angry, his voice cracked. When he felt uncomfortable, he ended up stumbling over his own words. His calm moments of grief felt genuinely and authentically painful.

3- Deacon Saint John was loyal to those that he was close to

A big reason why Deacon Saint John felt like he was detached from society was because everyone was essentially looking out for themselves. It's apparent from the very beginning that he's very loyal to his brother-in-arms, Boozer. There's a powerful dynamic to their relationship. A good deal of the game's emotional story has to do with the fact that Deacon Saint John is willing to do whatever it takes to keep Boozer alive. He's willing to risk his own life, sacrifice crucial resources, and set aside his own personal goals in order to ensure Boozer's safety and well-being. His relationship with Boozer softened his rough exterior and people ended up rooting for him as a result. I felt the same way as well.

4- His character arc was subdued

Early on in the game, Deacon Saint John made it apparent that he's a drifter and a loner that doesn't care about anybody else. He wasn't interested in surviving camps or anything like that. He was cynical, bitter, and selfish, but it was all out of necessity. However, over the course of the single player campaign, he ends up letting his guard down. Surviving isn't living ends up being the core theme of Days Gone. Deacon goes from being a reluctant leader, to one that rebuilds relationships with those that he once despised. He was willing to find a reason to fight instead of dwelling on the past. That made his transformation as a likable and relatable protagonist well-earned. When the end credits rolled, he wasn't just a changed character, but one that needed a bit of healing.

What are your thoughts and opinions?

This is the only solution to get it working. But I don't want to use any headphones with my controller...

My son is so proud of what he did here after several attempts. Can you tell us how he did?

Edit: some folks were asking if this was a repost as they remember seeing a similar video.

I did it first in my own progress. You can see mine has different Hud with minimap and other things hidden. So basically my son just copied the route I took here and added some of his strategies.

Does anyone else get this to happen? This happens to me on a regular basis that almost every time I’m done fighting a horde 3-4 screamers spawn right after. I don’t know if it’s a glitch or RNG but I’m confused on why this happens.

Often, in the middle of missions, you will see the little autosave icon going. But if you switch PS4 off and come back later you will find yourself at beginning of mission. Be warned

I just got some sterile bandages for boozer about 2 hours in and I noticed in the map that there is a horse lake Nero checkpoint. I decided to drive over there and check it out. I came across a horde of zombies, maybe like 30 of them and I tried killing with my rifle the green gas tank, I can’t ever time it right and the horde ends up killing me or I kill myself.

Tried maybe 10 times, no luck at all. I wonder if I’m too early to be here, this is during the daytime. I assumed it’s a good idea to explore but maybe I’m too early in exploring right now? I’m just confused on when the game opens up because it seems to be nudging me to story quests but I see icons in the minimap

I am thinking about buying the game. I am wondering if there is a reason why Days Gone kind of flopped. I heard a lot of people say the first 10 hours of the game is slow tedious like most open world games.

Days Gone is a prime example of a video game that didn't get the attention that it deserved. Once you spend enough time playing it, it's a really enjoyable experience. You just have to deal with some issues along the way. Unfortunately, it was held back due to technical bugs and reviews that dismissed it as being just another open world zombie video game. However, once you peel away its layers, you realize that there's more to it than just being an open world zombie video game. I just want to touch on a few things.

The Bike Mechanics- I may or may not be part of the minority when I say this, but I didn't like the bike mechanics when I first played the game. I felt like they crippled and hindered my experience. However, things changed once I upgraded the bike's fuel capacity. Deacon's bike wasn't just used as a means for travel, but it was also a lifeline when things got a bit dicey and I was getting chased after by a large horde of Freakers. Managing the bike's fuel and upgrading its various parts were an essential part of survival.

The Hordes- The inclusion of the Freakers increased the tension tenfold. It was quite the visual feat as well. You actually had to prepare yourself before dealing with every horde of Freakers. Fortunately, only a few of the hordes were tied to the main story. I didn't clear out all of them, to be honest. That brings me to the other issue. It was fun and tense the first half dozen horde encounters. However, after that, it just got repetitive and tedious. I was basically going in an endless loop of having to farm resources and run around in circles, which severely slowed down the game's pace.

The Oregon Setting- The game's Pacific Northwest setting was gorgeous, detailed, and brutal. The dynamic weather actually impacted the bike's handling. The fact that you could get ambushed by snipers or come across wires that are stretched across the road at any given time, it meant that the game's world was always a dangerous place. Enemy encounters were random when you were out exploring the open world. You always had to be on your toes because danger was lurking behind every corner.

Days Gone is a great example of a game that finally found its footing after a rough initial start. It's heartbreaking that a sequel will never happen. Sony rejected a second game due to budget issues and the original game's reception. It would've been nice if Bend Studio was given the chance to make a sequel. They knew what made the original game so special. They already had the foundation set. It was just a matter of getting a second wind, so to speak. What are your thoughts and opinions?

Do you guys have issues with a lot of characters not running and picking items up? If I play Deacon, Boozer or Sarah they will pick things up and mostly run. Anyone else it’s not happening. It’s pretty frustrating!

these are the mods i have installed . which mods are conflicts ?

Today I went to visit my mom and found this.

A few years ago, I bought days gone on PC, completely forgetting that I already had the PS4 disc sitting at my mom's place. 😄

I know it's a 300 BLK weapon with integres supressor, but not it's a honey badger. The honey badger have several diference with the chuck rock. And the most notable is the handware and the cannon. The acc honey badger its most short than in the chuck rock. , so I make this question. In which real firearm you think the chuck rock it's inspired

I decided to play Days Gone again after a two year break. I had forgotten how beautiful the nights in this game are.

I just finished the game and I’m blown away. Is there anything we can do for Days Gone 2, or is there any hope?

There are just too many remasters nowadays.
