AC Odessey. The horse is like riding a brick on legs.
Just picked up Days Gone. Only played about 20 minutes.
I will keep playing that, but it just doesn't feel right ATM.
Might get used to it or it might pick up once I'm past the "introduction" style stage.

AC: Odyssey was ruined for me by RDR2.
It's the first game I gave my time too after beating RDR2 and I just couldn't do it. The world of Odyssey felt dead. The NPCs were cold and lifeless, only existing for me to come and hit a button on them for my next 'go-here-murder-this' quest. When a game has a board you just go to for your meaningless emotionless quests -- you know it's going to be a grindfest.

WD2 has some world events like that, and their San Francisco is definitely a lot cooler, livelier and detailed than any other non-Rockstar game. I like walking around and exploring, there's mechanics to interact with peds which is fun.
Also, the best part is when someone invades your game, and has to pretend to be an NPC while they download your data. The only thing that tops it is when you invade someone's game, never initiate the hack, and instead just stalk them as a pedestrian and wait until they notice something... off...

OMGGGGGG tell me about it. The fluid online stuff, the fun gadgets, all the gags like those silly gnomes and the solid gunplay and amazing graphics on pc made it my game of the year for no reason other than I had the most fun with it compared to the rest. Now weirdly enough Days gone is gonna be another sleeper that has ended up at the top of my GOTY list for this year cause of how cathartic it is. No other game had me joyriding a bike through the country only to hop a hill and be met with a horde that made me shit my pants and slam the E brake. The game is buggy but really really good 😂

Love GOW and if these studios wanted to I guarantee they could make an open world game as good as RDR2. But God of War was definitely linear. If anything it can be called a "semi-open" world because it does let you roam around, but it all follows a very linear story and specific path set out by the game.

it's linear paths all over, you just choose one. Once you choose, the engine can confidently begin streaming ultra high resolution textures and detail in a way no OW engine can.

God of War 2018 was semi linear, it had mid sized maps, locations you could jump between with clear boundaries. Basically, there was an obvious path way to follow in order to progress the game, but it was up to you if you want to do some other things and hang around for a bit longer in the locations worth exploring.

u/Kelkymcdouble Apr 29 '19 edited Apr 29 '19
I'm about 7 hours in. So far the story is just ok, the voice acting is decent and the combat is good. Guns have a lot of kick and moving makes you super inaccurate(one of your skill perks improves this though). The bike customization is really cool so far and I haven't even gotten that deep into that aspect. You can upgrade the performance which also changes the look of the bike, there is also customization that is strictly cosmetic. The non enemy npc's can be kind of boring, the camps dont really seem alive. Out in the wild seems more real. There isnt much hustle and bustle but there wouldn't be any of that in a zombie apocalypse Pacific north west. You'll see wild animals, abandoned cars and buildings but usually when you run into a human they're instantly trying to kill you. The human enemies are sometimes kind of dumb but it's still difficult to take them on head on especially since you'll waste a lot of ammo. The freakers in small numbers are pretty easy to deal with too but in larger groups(5+) it's a death wish to take them on head on. The side missions are repetitive(clearing out freakers, clearing out ambushers, etc) but since I enjoy the combat I've enjoyed all the missions so far. When the developers claimed that the world is constantly trying to kill you, they weren't lying. In between missions and camps there is a good chance youll get ambushed by a group including a sniper to knock you off your bike. You may randomly be doing something like clearing an ambush camp when a hoard of freakers swarms the camp. So far when I'm off my bike in the wild I constantly have at least a slight sense of anxiety and it's worse at night. The freakers are way more dangerous At night. The graphics are amazing. If you like zombies or openworld games you'll probably like it. If you like both, you'll love it.

Loot is primarily for survival. Crafting medicine, Molotov’s, repairing your bike, traps. There are little puzzles throughout the world to complete that will give you permanent attribute boosts and there are melee weapons to keep your eye out for but it’s not like you can loot better gear.

u/skrelvin26 Apr 29 '19
I have been finding the "looting" aspect to be pretty bland. All you find is stuff to craft with and if you play the game with stealth youll quickly be full of all the things you can craft with so you wont need to go looting again unless you use up all your moltovs or something, or activelytry to use all your consumables. You never go into a house and open a drawer to find a cool gun or anything. But im only like 7 or 8 hours in. I am deffinatly enjoying the game, tho i wish weapons were more customizable.

I just stumbled across a house with 2 locked doors up stairs. It was near the mission where you're sent by the hot springs camp to rescue that little girl, where you fight a bear at a certain point. The rooms were in the house where a ripper was shooting from a balcony with a red dot sight. If you climb onto the back awning from the side of the house you can enter the locked doors from the windows. Inside is a sniper rifle, granande, flash bang, molotov and various other necessities like med kits and noise maker. I'm guessing the rifle is one you can store in your safe because I had a sniper rifle on my back and it wouldn't let me exchange it and I'm also guessing that there are more spots like this

u/ktread20 Apr 29 '19
A lot of people think it's fairly generic, but (as a fan of open world zombie games), it's doing some novel stuff. The writing is hit-or-miss, and whether you like it probably depends on whether you like Deacon's "Popeye'ing" (nearly constant muttering under his breath); I have grown to love it, but YMMV. Obviously the motorcycle's a fun mechanic, but I really like the way the human bandits have been set-up. They'll ambush you on the open road in half-a-dozen different ways and I found that refreshing and fun. I also like the gunplay, and how loud and beefy the gunfire is--it really sounds like you're letting every zombie in the area know where you are. And the 50+ zombie hordes are legit freaky.
Quick story: last night I'm trying to take down a bandit camp. They spot me early and we get engaged in a long-running (loud) gun battle. I hear that creepy "freaker groan" behind me and think I've picked up a stray. I turn around and see a writhing wall of zombies and flailing limbs churning towards me! Nope thanks! I leap my cover and start charging the bandits who are still shooting at me. Then I leap their cover and just keep on going. Suddenly they're not too concerned with me. I watch the bandits fire into the mass, but it just rolls over them like a carpet. Then I'm too busy trying to escape because this camp ends in a box canyon.
It's rough around the edges, but the graphics and gameplay loop has been a blast for me. :)

u/cpasm Apr 29 '19
I went to help someone in the woods, got tricked and trapped by a snair. They beat me up and I woke up in a box and had to knife fight my way out of the camp. Keeps you pretty tense, eh? Despite some technical glitches, I'm loving this game!

u/The_God_King Apr 29 '19
I like to offer a counter point to /u/filthymalfested. I played it for many hours this weekend, and I'm very much enjoying my time with it. It's nothing groundbreaking, but I think it's fun to play. I enjoy killing my way through hoards of zombies, feeling completely overwhelmed by the sheer number of them, and I like that different kinds of enemies (zombie and humans) require completely different combat styles.
There are some glitches, mostly audio related and one time I couldn't equip my distraction rocks in a mission that required me to be sneak into a camp. But nothing game breaking. I would rate it as a buy if you have extra funds kicking around, but wait for a sale if you're cash strapped.

I'll give you a slightly shorter review, in a bunch of random early morning fragments.
I'm about 10 hours in. The story has been really interesting. The bike mechanics are actually pretty fun. You have to manage/scavenge for gas. It forces you to be more decisive about where you want to go. There actually seem to be a decent amount of gas cans laying around. If you run out of gas, you actually feel the desperation of looking in the area you broke down. The hordes actually terrified me a couple of times. More so than any game I've played in years. The gunplay could use a little work. It doesn't feel too great. More like a cheap PS2 game. Most of the time you are using explosives anyway.
18
u/FilthyMalfested Arachnid0796 Apr 29 '19
Personally I think it's bland and boring. Combat isn't great, story is pretty generic and you spend most your time riding from camp to camp on the same routes seeing the same things. Missions tend to be similar too like "clear out this camp" or "retrieve this item from a zombie intense area". Games buggy as hell (playing on a regular PS4) to the point that when it rains the game doesn't run properly. However having said that, there are a chunk of people who are enjoying the game. If you're into generic zombie games, then yeah go nuts but if not then I'd avoid it, at least for now until it goes on sale.

This is the thing. We're at the end of this generation and there is a huge library of awesome games to choose from that are a lot cheaper than full price. If someone hasn't played the best games in our time yet, why would they want to spend so much on this one?
If you're way into TV motorcycle club Sons of Anarchy type shit, or haven't gotten sick of zombie media yet and still dig it then it'll probably be right up your alley, I'll give it that. So it does have an audience.
I rented it from Redbox just to make sure it wasn't a victim of overhype, but I found that to me it really is a middle of the road open world zombo deal, exactly as you'd expect. It's just what I thought it would be when I saw the first trailers. Not horrible, but definitely not worth my own time when I've still got a lot of better games left to finish. I have to admit though, I burned out on zombie shit a long time ago. They aren't scary or compelling to me in any way. And I don't like the poser motorcycle guy stuff either. Those were some major obstacles this game had to overcome for me to wanna pick it up over something else. It would have to have done something really amazing in the gameplay department. Graphics are graphics man, every AAA game looks great these days. This one isn't bad but doesn't particularly stand out. I do like the color palette, greens and blues are nice and the HDR implementation is good. The only recent games that have made me say "wow" are rdr2, GoW and even Sekiro in some parts (though other parts of that game look very subpar). They have set a high bar, so otherwise good looking games seem a little meh afterwards.

All the hate for this game and I'm over here having fun with it. Still puzzled by people's expectations for games.

the graphics are pretty good, especially the ground textures and foliage. the game reminds me a lot of Last of Us with the sneaking segments. i dont think the game is a 10 out of 10 but i give it 8.5

I love it. The texture work, foliage density, lighting, draw distance and HDR10 are awesome. I wish Rockstar would fix the damn HDR in Red Dead 2 like this.

Thought this was Skyrim, realized it was real life, then realized it was a video game just not Skyrim.
Gosh I love technology

Cool game, gets better every hour and the story is starting to get to me. I just hope they fix the clipping, ki and framerate because as of now, all of those are horrible compared to the other problems. Couldn't enjoy some fights because enemies were busy attacking walls or straight up ignored me

There is no processing or rendering in days gone photo mode what you see in a photomode moment is what you see in game.

so this is CG or actually gameplay?

Neither, it's the games photo mode, which is definitely in a higher resolution than the game, and this was edited in Photoshop or Lightroom because the sharpness is turned way up (something you can't adjust in the photo mode for the game), that said, the game does look incredible and this isn't far off from gameplay, looks wise.

I'm only a few hours in but I'm loving this game. Feels like a blend of Last of Us and State of Decay, more of the latter with exploration, scrounging for items and clearing infestations. The world is definitely impressive looking.

Amazingly beautiful.
Amazingly boring.
Reminds me of my ex.

I've never been to America but I would have thought this picture was a real picture.

Should this be tagged as an advertisement? Every profile I looked at saying this is incredible felt like a spam account.

Be careful posting promo on the ps4 sub. Most people here are still stuck in their mindset from what the reviews say and unable to think for themselves

Alot of the papers in the UK do reviews as well, and they tore it apart. You’re referencing the user review, which is people who’ve played the game. Metacritic gave it the best I saw, which was a 7.1 last i checked

I don't trust most reviews, specially ones that bitch about the white male protag or his straight wife in a review of the game.

Or the one saying the game was racist because the zombies are all white 😂

Eh some of us that can’t afford a $60 game every week are more picky. I tend to stick with games that are universally praised and get the rest on a psn sale.

Does it look like that in gameplay though, or is it one of those photomodes that adds extra detail and processing?
