As far as gameplay variety, this is one of those games where you get out what you put in. It's not some extremely dramatic shift, but it's there and it's enough. Without spoiling anything, your character acts the way he does for a reason, so that he can grow and change by the conclusion of the story. The story is intentionally bleak at first - but I wouldn't say overly-so.

The opening act may not hook you but once you've upgraded your bike and character stats a few times the game starts to feel a lot more fun and rewarding to play. Please don't let the low review score dissuade you. As someone who really enjoyed Mad Max and felt that it was underappreciated, I couldn't disagree with this statement more. They conclude by encouraging you to skip this and play Mad Max instead.


PC Gamer's review of the PC version leaked, and they rated it at 63/100, saying it's technically sound on PC with stable frame rate and pretty visuals but they were disappointed with an overly bleak story and lack of gameplay variety. Unlike many on the DaysGone sub, I'm not gonna bullshit you - this isn't a perfect game, it's not a masterpiece, it's not "one of the best games ever made".īut it's a damned good game, a very fun game with an interesting albeit largely derivative story and characters that seem very one-note at first but begin to blossom some hours into the experience.
