  1. Been having trouble with copyrighted issues for the last few days. Hence why the audio “randomly cuts out” at the start. If it continues ill probably reupload it altogether with different music. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this one.

  2. I think the colonel also showed hypocrisy when it came to no relationships in the military 🪖 plus hypocrisy with Christian religion. When he was adamant on not let the doctor go out in the field for fear of getting him killed his excuse was that the doctor was the only one they had. Bought upon Deacon leaving the little office they were in. very strong implications that the colonel was homosexual and he was in a relationship with the doctor

  3. Days Gone is such an amazing game. The story is heartbreaking and redeeming at the same time. Deacon St.John is one of the best characters in modern games. He's got more depth and emotion than most characters in gaming. The reviews from garbage places like IGN and game informer real did this game in before it was even given a chance. They focused on certain parts of the gameplay and the fact the lead character was a masculine White male is I think why these trash gaming outlets doomed the game before it had a chance to carve out a bigger audience. I think so many gamers that never gave it a chance would love it. I know I do and I was one of the few that wanted to play this game from the day it came out in 2019 but I didn't have a PS4 or the money to get one so it took until last year for me to finally play this game. It was the first game I bought once I got a PS5. I can relate to Deacon in many ways other people cannot because I am.an Army Veteran, I grow up around the MC life even tho I never joined. I lost a gf that I still love to this day. Deacon is a person tormented by his actions in the past, scared to lose the small pieces he has of his wife if he moves forward and moves on. I love this game.

  4. I love Days Gone. I personally couldn't stand Mike. I get why he runs his camp the way he does but blindly trusting skizzo is nieve, especially when Deek tells him how skizzo wants to take over but Mike dont care. Mikes decision to trust skizzo got people killed when the rippers attacked and his decision to let skizzo go got himself and others killed by the milita. If it wasnt for Deek and Boozer the rippers would've came back. Mikes heart was in the right place and was a good man but the committee should've been making decisions as a group. Atleast in the end he told Deek do what you have to, protect them. Lost lake is in better hands with Deek, Boozer, Rikki and Addy. I wish there was a part 2 even if it was in book form.

  5. This game is soooo good man. This game is better than the last of us 2 and that’s tough to say but it is. Only reason it has tough reviews is because of bugs when the game first came out but now it’s just a great open world game

  6. I honestly found it more enjoyable than RDR2. Before anyone says some of the “corny dialogue”, I agree but I’m convinced it was deliberate to give it a more realistic edge.

  7. Great to see this game being talked about. it got a bad wrap and is underappreciated for it. So much more than just 'another zombie game'. His friendship with Boomer is still something I look back fondly on.
