Twenty years later, a different perspective and lens on a game makes a worlds difference. When I played this game in my younger years, I was saddened….. By the fact that Raccoon City was no more; the atmosphere and creepy tone that overtook the first three entries were no more. Instead, we were placed in a new setting, Rockfort Island. While this game doesn’t hold the place that RE2 or RE3 hold, it certainly left its mark in the series and had a more intuitive plot which pretty much smoked the plot of the previous entries. The 3D backgrounds took getting used to and to this day, it doesn’t look as pretty as the pre rendered backgrounds of the first three, but the graphics are bearable. While Claire was on the Island searching for her brother, many important story points are revealed. Why is it a 5/5? Simple, it’s an important entry which has an epic close on the OG series. After this game, RE was never the same. CV was, and always will be, the final classic RE which was more than worthy of a high rating. In closure, I never liked this game but with a different perspective, I have learned to love and appreciate this classic entry

There is literally nothing I can say bad about this game! I've never felt as connected to a character and invested in their story as much as Deacon St.John, and will have this game ingrained in my memory for a long time in a similar way that I do with Red Dead Redemption 2 and even Rdr2 doesn't hold a candle to this gem. From beginning to end it is a heartwarming, gut-wrenching and epic story without compare, it's almost like I can feel everything Deacon feels all the way through, his struggles, his frustration, his pain and his joy... It all feels real in a way that no other game does. I can't say enough good words for this masterpiece, it's almost more than just a game and in a way transcends the boundaries of what I thought possible for a game, no character is two dimensional and so I feel like I've grown a bond with everyone Deacon has and so every death hurts like it would in real life since these are more than just AI and Npcs but people, no one is there to say a cool line or deliver exposition, they are fleshed out and relatable more than even RDR2 which I thought had the most impactful characters and story before I played this. This is the only review for a game I have ever made and it very well may be the last. I implore everyone to see it through to the end and show as much love for the developers as I do since this is something more, if it were possible to sum this game up in one word it would be Hopeful, in many ways this game radiates hope from its fantastic story and it's polished world and gameplay to hope for the future of gaming and how impactful they can become. To the developers of Days Gone: You are all amazing and I can't wait to see what you come up with next but I also would ask that you don't make a sequel to DG so the story you have created will be recognised for what it is... A one of a kind journey and one that will be remembered for it.
