In a separate thread, a gamersaid they’ve put their playthrough of Oblivion Remastered on pause to experience Days Gone again. Another gamercommented on how nighttime looks more “spooky"in the remaster than it was in the original game.
“I’m out of gas. It’s just turned night. It just started thundering and raining. I’m in the middle of nowhere. I need to get back to Boozer and there are screaming Freakers in the distance. The atmosphere in this game is unmatched for me,“a user detailed.
It seems like Bend Studio made good on its word in attempting to elevate the base Days Gone experience in the remaster. Maybe the strong response will be enough to greenlight a sequel. Here’s hoping.
