Thank you for all the comments and opinions so far. It's great hearing so much love for both games that I hold so dear 😁 I avoid doing this in my videos, but seeing as this one is garnering more views than the usual amount, I say why not... Please check out my other videos, and SUBSCRIBE for more 😁
Funnily enough, I started playing both together, found them extremely similar, dropped both in the middle of the story, 1 year later I picked one of them to finish and then I picked the other one to finish as well. What I liked the most out of both was the journey of Mad Max and the ending of Days Gone. Mad Max had a great gameplay loop during the campaign but with a disappointing ending and an empty world after that, while Days Gone felt like a slog to play through but the ending was very satisfying and I still had things to do after that, not only in the map, but NG+ as well as some challenges in the form of minigames in the main menu. Both are great action adventure games and I recommend both equally, I might as well put AC4 Black Flag and the first Red Dead Redemption with them. My personal "4 Horsemen" of open world action adventure games.
Nice, man. Yah definitely do scratch an itch don't they? I agree that post end game for Mad Max is effectively just a check list. Days Gone offers a lot more. Thanks for watching, man 😁
These two games are just so good. Probably my two favorite games of last gen. With a couple of others sprinkled in, of course. Both have excellent voice acting. Action and combat systems are on point. Fun game mechanics. Open world fun. That being said, I feel like Mad Max is more replay-able and a bit easier to come back to. Two vastly underrated bangers.
I can’t believe you said days gone has a bland open world! It’s the single most chaotic open world I’ve ever played in! A deer being chased by wolves into a group of ambushers who’s gunfire attract a horde in the cave behind them! There’s literally nothing like it. Try new game+ you’ll change your mind.
@@TheJiffymeybe u played on easy mode, bro on survival mode its crazy, you see freakers, animals, humans everywhere, and the ammo ohh boy 😏, you will appreciate the ammo on those modes ✌
@@samuelesquivel6202 nope - played it on survival because I found the HUD really invasive. I don't know what to say, the world was just dull to explore. Events that happen can be fun, but seldom exciting.
I like the grim mature story of mad Max, but the side missions and gameplay of days gone. Both equal and fun, with a slight edge to days gone being more fun to play.
Great stuff man, there's things i like more about your vids with every installment. Intro writing is on point this time around, and the editing is top notch as usual. They should get you making trailers for new releases!
Thanks, brother! Just for future, what is it about the intro that was particularly good? I currently don't know if I would be able to re-create that quality for other videos, because I just "write from the hip", if you will.
These two games and Red Dead Redemption 1 all complement each other wonderfully. They all have very similar concepts and tones such as a mode of transport(Bike, car, horse), shady companions, harsh unforgiving landscapes, and building a new world out of a dying old world(RDR 1 takes place during the death of the wild West). They are also full of dark humor and horrible atrocities. All three regions the games are set in are also deeply steeped in mysticism.
@@dylancameron382 The Australian outback, the wild West, and the Pacific northwest all share the cultures that widely practiced mysticism in those regions. idk how else to explain it besides look in the the history of those places and the various forms of mysticism practiced(legends, rituals, myths, and magic)
@@dylancameron382 Yea sorry, I could see how you thought I was saying that, I just mean the areas these developers chose for their settings of these games
The reason Deacon rides a motorbike is because he was a biker before the apocalypse, and if i remember properly for quite a long time. He's probably more used to driving them than a car, and for the reasons you listed.
Yeah, you're not the first person to mention that. I am aware he was a biker. But was everyone in the game a biker? It's the only form of transport for EVERYONE. I can suspend disbelief only so much.
Great video! I wish I had played these games sooner because they're just excellent. I also like to note that Deacons voice actor Sam Witwer, he's previously voiced star killer and Darth maul in the clone wars which he did excellently however, in days gone he does such a great job simply sounding like an actual human with and not just a guy reading a script.
Thanks 😁 Yes, Sam Witwer did a great job. I have an issue with Days Gone's writing, but performances are decent. Deacon's unhinged characteristics are portrayed very well by Sam.
What a video, the comparison it's self is a genuine Compliment of uderated games being paid homage to, 2 of the best games ever in my book and my gaming book is old, but I loved your video the words you yoused the way you used them it was beautiful, like you I hold both these games close to my heart, thanks for making this video but you made these games that are different so very the same well done pal, stay safe and well pal. As I said loved your video..
Thanks so much, man. It's always nice to get complimented on the work I put into my videos, and this up there with the nicest I have ever received. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thank you for watching 😁
@@TheJiffy pal I'm subscribing loved the use of words the comparisons the differences the whole what it means to be a gamer it's not what's fresh what's graphically better it's all about why we the gamers chose this life, this past time, this medium, it's the love of all games, so I will be looking for alot of good maybe great game videos, but I like you am not about graphics been unbelievably realistic because in my eyes that's not what a game is, if you want realism watch a film yeah graphics help but its not the be and end all. As I said stay safe and well and I loved what I watched so ad me to you subscribers. Best of luck.
I liked and finished both games but I find myself returning to Days Gone more. I thought the convoys were the part of Mad Max that was most like the movies but once you hunt them all down, they’re gone for good. In DG after you clear all the hordes you can reset them in the menu and fight them again
You can reset hordes? Oh man, I basically did a speed run to the sawmill because I wanted footage for THAT horde. Now I find out I could've reset my end game save? Man that stings. 😂
The story in Days gone is nothin groundbreaking but i still felt that the story was well writen and has some great characters. Deacon himself is iconic in my opinion
Days Gone and Mad Max are two of my favorite games. I’ve played both like 3-4 times each. I’d have to give the edge to Days Gone but Mad Max isn’t far behind. Two very different apocalyptic open worlds and game mechanics. You honestly can’t compare them or say they’re alike. Both great games in my opinion 👍🏻
I often hear that type of statement. "You can't compare them, they're too different". But here I am, comparing them. Incidentally, I disagree completely. They have many similar qualities that I highlight in the video. So...respectfully... What on earth are you on about? But yes, they're both great games 😁
Loved your analysis! I've been jamming Days Gone for years now and still can't tear myself away from it. In order to do that, I did order a copy of Mad Max (I'm a big fan of the films), unfortunately it's yet to turn up in my letterbox GODAMMIT.
Thanks for making this video, it was a real good one. Too bad CZcams has the flaws that doesn't make this blow up, then again I'm happy I found it before it does!
Making a Mad Max game video w.out a single viewing of any of the films? WoW! That's bold. FYI the game was highly influenced by the last release of Fury Road. Also the what bugs me is the question some ask after they finish M.M.-"What do I do now??" It's like...the game is HUGE, and you definitely won't finish it in just a weeks time, unless of course you do nothing for a whole week but play MM for 12 straight hours a day minimum.
I think the game deserves its own spotlight, and the films don't need to share that spotlight. It's good on its own merit. Also, yes, it's an enormous game, but only if aiming for 100% status. Otherwise, it's very manageable. End game is daunting for sure though. Thanks for watching 😁
"titular"? 😡 all my homies say "eponymous" " to say max max nails vehicular combat would be a disservice" - wow. that's grand praise. That sells me on the game tbh. If *anything* can capture the feeling in the film of cars smashing into each other in that desert, it's worth a try.
Wouldn't "Mad George Miller" be eponymous given that he's the creator? Unless I'm misunderstanding what eponymous means. I think titular is virtually the same anyway, no? And yeah man, the car mayhem is great. I think people sometimes consider it to be shallow, but I can't think of any other titles that do it better.
Mad Max is a great game with an enjoying combat and driving but with story, characters and mostly open world activities it doesn't even reach knees to Days Gone.
Thanks so much man 😁 really appreciate that! As much as I love those games, I honestly haven't got much to say about them that hasn't already been said by others. Maybe one day I'll have an epiphany though, so who knows 😁
I literally could not continue Days Gone due to major bug issues stopping me from progressing. Maybe they have since fixed these bugs. I really enjoyed Mad Max back when it came out.
@@waltervanlille2263 Yeah it was the ps4 pro. It was a level where I had to sneak past these enemies while following a target so I had to both not be detected and keep up with the target and the game was telling me to throw rocks to distract them but every-time I did this, they went in my direction instead of the rock, I checked you-tube guides and this did not seem to be happening for them, without using this mechanic I did manage to get further but they kept finding me even though I was out of their line of sight or it would happen that I would fail because I was not following the target close enough even though they were not too far away. It definitely had to be a bug as it was not happening in any of the you tube videos. It was the first time I came close to actually putting a ps4 game on the floor and stamping on it in pure frustration. I never touched it since. I might give it a go again on the ps5.
@TheJiffy I think I played it in 2020, and I recall having to wait 8 hours for an update to finish, and it was pointless given the issues I had with bugs after. Ps5 should be a better option in future.
Id say days gone the bigger game i completed both games too. Mm has good car combat and fist fightings like batman arkham. Ye petrol and vehicle damage + upgrades is were similarities end.
Mad Max ALL DAY. Days Gone was too many go across map for fetch missions. Now I didn’t finish it got to some old guy gang at bottom of map. I beat Mad Max and loved the traversal and car combat.
Easily my two favourite games of the last 10 years, and the only two games I've ever completed 100% (although I can't get the platinum for Max because of one lousy online trophy), both "mehed" by reviewers. Days beats Max by a narrow margin in my book though.
Honestly I prefer days gone over mad max. Max story is cool but at the end (spoiler) he doesn’t change, nothing really happens every one he knew dies and he got his car back. I also liked decons crazy self rambles sounds like a guy who spends a lot of time by himself plus (spoiler) evolving freaks was kinda cool. Although the weird coincidence of deacon story was a bit much like it just so happens his wife worked and knew about the virus, she also knew the general, his old bike gang ex members just so happens to be the leader of the weird freaker cult. And the whole general turning evil was kinda a comp out
That's fair enough. I actually really like that Max didn't really change. It just cements his one dimensional stance. And (spoiler) giving up Chum Bucket after all they did is so cold, it's the ending the audience deserved. Days Gone's story is frankly one of the game's biggest downfalls to me. I find it so corny, I tend to roll my eyes during each cutscene. That said, I can't deny Sam Witwer did great voice over work as Deacon.
@@TheJiffy oh I get why max stays the same he’s been through so much the very second he let his guard down it all goes shit up. Like the death of mother and daughter and them saying to start new, max letting go of the snow globe hit hard, his blind rage and revenge that led him killing his only real friend. All that just so he can just go on and built those walls back up it’s like watching a wall survive a car crash max is so emotional detached and hollow. And yeag at times deacons story is a bit corny I mean rember that J rock wanna be villain although that junkie story hit a lil hard when deacon had to put him down
Lol. Cool your jets, man. Of course I know Deacon is a biker. The point I was making was that EVERYONE uses bikes, and there are zero cars used in the game.
Story wise, yes I agree, quite lacking. Although that's also a strength of Mad Max in some respects. As for things to do... I mean... there's lots to do, it's just a repetition. Thankfully it's fun regardless 😁
I loved the gameplay in mad max but the story was shit and every boss fight was the same. I never saw any of the technical issues everyone talked about in days gone so for me the gameplay and the story was amazing
Fair enough. I think the story in Mad Max is excellent. The issues revolve around its delivery. It's spread too thin across the game . The story in Days Gone has some good moments, but I honestly found most of it too corny, and like I mentioned in the video, predictable. Each to their own I suppose 😁 Thanks for watching!
@@TheJiffyas a person that hasn't seen any mad max movie, the ending was absolute dogshit in mad max. Days gone's story was alright. But damn was mad max repetitive.
@@raz_xtr1257thats the point of mad max at the end he always suffers and he cannot escape himself and his insanity its a loop that he’s stuck in madness and when he’s close to finally finding some peace its gone
It get's better toward the end, with more horde encounters etc. But I personally wouldn't bother playing it to round up the story. It did very little for me. Mad Max is a blast though 😁
Yeah, I've heard a lot people struggle with it. I never have, but maybe I just got lucky. If you're interested in a suggestion from me, ignore all other cars right from the start. Focus all your fire power and damage on the leader. Good luck, and God speed 😁
Would have been better if WB hadn’t taken it away from George Miller and let him finish his version. Also they stole his production notes so there are some spoilers for future movies in the game
@@russbennett5470 I wasn't actually aware that George Miller had any input into the game's development, so this is really interesting to learn, thanks 😁
Madmax : Highly optimised, visually stunning environment and in world game, forced me to use cheats to complete the game, repetitive, bugs, meh storyline...not bad-not good.
Days gone is alright it got super repetitive and boring after a while.. mad max gets very repetitive aswell but it doesn’t get boring, at least for me.
Mad max is a good game days gone is a shity game dont bother evan watching the video . I agree with playstation for calling it a failure gane is just blunt story boring gameplay boring quest boring lacks content it chooses mechanics from different type of games and butchers them . If u call a blunt experience without feel a game than go ahead buy it and play it .
So youre saying to finish days gone? I dont know why but i just cant... i dont care for any of the characters nor the story, the gameplay is arcadey and extremely boring. Gunplay isnt really fun.. a real bog to get through
Nah, I'm not saying you should finish it. I'm a firm believer in playing what you want. Life's too short to spend time playing games you don't enjoy. I found the story weak, characters largely forgettable. But I enjoy roaming around on a bike, taking on hordes, etc.
Thank you for all the comments and opinions so far. It's great hearing so much love for both games that I hold so dear 😁
I avoid doing this in my videos, but seeing as this one is garnering more views than the usual amount, I say why not... Please check out my other videos, and SUBSCRIBE for more 😁
"Days Gone" is one of the most amazing games I've played in a while. I'm definitely giving Mad Max a try!!!!!
Hope you enjoy it, man! 😁
Just started playing MM, if you’re a fan it’s a must try. Feels like you just hopped in the drivers seat on Fury Road.
Finally, someone saw the similarities between these two games. I have always felt it. God, I want more of these types of games.
Nothing similar on these games only difference mad max i a good game days gone is a shity game .
there's plenty of apocalyptic games. No idea what you mean..?
Id recommended red dead redemption and both of the horizon games and maybe dying light 1 if you like the grit of days gone and mm
After Mad Max just play Rage 2 you will love it
These are both two of my favorite games that I wish could have a sequel
Same bro
the movie fury road is the sequel to the game
Right I can’t even pick which one I would want a sequel for more.
Same both great games, there needs to be a sequel.
Mad max is really a hidden gem when I first got it didn’t expect to have so much fun!
This was exactly the same for me! Expected to lose interest after just a few hours, but I didn't mind, as I picked it up in a sale. How wrong I was 😁
Two games that were incredibly underrated and two games. I really want to see more of.
Both of these masterpieces deserved a sequel
2 games vastly similar and both masterpieces in there own right and both deserved a sequel
Funnily enough, I started playing both together, found them extremely similar, dropped both in the middle of the story, 1 year later I picked one of them to finish and then I picked the other one to finish as well.
What I liked the most out of both was the journey of Mad Max and the ending of Days Gone. Mad Max had a great gameplay loop during the campaign but with a disappointing ending and an empty world after that, while Days Gone felt like a slog to play through but the ending was very satisfying and I still had things to do after that, not only in the map, but NG+ as well as some challenges in the form of minigames in the main menu.
Both are great action adventure games and I recommend both equally, I might as well put AC4 Black Flag and the first Red Dead Redemption with them. My personal "4 Horsemen" of open world action adventure games.
Nice, man. Yah definitely do scratch an itch don't they? I agree that post end game for Mad Max is effectively just a check list. Days Gone offers a lot more. Thanks for watching, man 😁
These two games are just so good. Probably my two favorite games of last gen. With a couple of others sprinkled in, of course. Both have excellent voice acting. Action and combat systems are on point. Fun game mechanics. Open world fun. That being said, I feel like Mad Max is more replay-able and a bit easier to come back to. Two vastly underrated bangers.
I can’t believe you said days gone has a bland open world! It’s the single most chaotic open world I’ve ever played in! A deer being chased by wolves into a group of ambushers who’s gunfire attract a horde in the cave behind them! There’s literally nothing like it. Try new game+ you’ll change your mind.
To be fair, that does sound like fun. I've never enountered anything like that before though. Maybe NG+ offer more interesting opportunities 😁

@@samuelesquivel6202 you realize that sentence translates to absolutely nothing, don't you?

Well.... Thank you for watching 😁 I'm amazed nobody had made a video comparing them before
Great stuff man, there's things i like more about your vids with every installment.
Intro writing is on point this time around, and the editing is top notch as usual. They should get you making trailers for new releases!

Playing mad max for free 😂
Mad Max should have got a remastered version of the game to tie in with Furiosa. Some better textures and lighting.
i love days gone i have played more times then i can count on both ps4 ps5 and pc it is a game i will always enjoy
Amazing video through and through. Love days gone, Haven't played Mad max but this video has made me really want to try it.
Thank you :)
As you can probably guess... I highly recommend Mad Max
I just started playing days gone and I’m loving it and I also have mad max but I haven’t started yet hopefully soon 😊
Nice. I envy you having not played them. I would love to play them both for the first time again.
oooo the comparison i never knew i needed!!
Glad I could accommodate 😁

Exploring the "waistband" eh? I don't think Max gets enough food to do much exploring of his waistband 😉
@@TheJiffy lol. He getting older.
2 brutal games, both are amazing!
These two on the PS4 I beat the most never get tired of them and ghost of tsushima and red dead 2
I'll pin these games against eachother, Days is far better. The slow bits were you have to walk with someone is the only downside.

Id have to say days gone narrative sounds a bit like dead space one with nicole and issac
Hmm... That's an interesting take. It's been so long since I played Dead Space I can't comment on whether or not I agree.
These 2 games are my Rog allys permanent games
Nice man. Decent choices for handheld gaming 👍
My choice of game to finally play for 2024.
Both have mediocre endings for my say.
Good overall story.
Decent gameplay mechanics.

Days gone feels like a modern version of RDR undead nightmare.
That's a really interesting take. If only Rockstar made an Undead Nightmare for RDR2, eh?
Id say days gone the bigger game i completed both games too. Mm has good car combat and fist fightings like batman arkham. Ye petrol and vehicle damage + upgrades is were similarities end.

your insistence on no HUD makes me laugh! Great for videos, but when i play those games there's gonna be a hud 😆
Oh I play with HUD too, as minimal as I can possibly make it though. But for purposes of videos, it's all about the clean look 😁
Easily my two favourite games of the last 10 years, and the only two games I've ever completed 100% (although I can't get the platinum for Max because of one lousy online trophy), both "mehed" by reviewers.
Days beats Max by a narrow margin in my book though.
Very easy to soak dozens of hours into both without realising 😁
Honestly I prefer days gone over mad max. Max story is cool but at the end (spoiler) he doesn’t change, nothing really happens every one he knew dies and he got his car back. I also liked decons crazy self rambles sounds like a guy who spends a lot of time by himself plus (spoiler) evolving freaks was kinda cool. Although the weird coincidence of deacon story was a bit much like it just so happens his wife worked and knew about the virus, she also knew the general, his old bike gang ex members just so happens to be the leader of the weird freaker cult. And the whole general turning evil was kinda a comp out
That's fair enough. I actually really like that Max didn't really change. It just cements his one dimensional stance. And (spoiler) giving up Chum Bucket after all they did is so cold, it's the ending the audience deserved.
Days Gone's story is frankly one of the game's biggest downfalls to me. I find it so corny, I tend to roll my eyes during each cutscene. That said, I can't deny Sam Witwer did great voice over work as Deacon.
@@TheJiffy oh I get why max stays the same he’s been through so much the very second he let his guard down it all goes shit up. Like the death of mother and daughter and them saying to start new, max letting go of the snow globe hit hard, his blind rage and revenge that led him killing his only real friend. All that just so he can just go on and built those walls back up it’s like watching a wall survive a car crash max is so emotional detached and hollow. And yeag at times deacons story is a bit corny I mean rember that J rock wanna be villain although that junkie story hit a lil hard when deacon had to put him down
13:11 bruh did you play the game ? Deacon is a biker thats why he prefers a bike how can you not know it?
Lol. Cool your jets, man. Of course I know Deacon is a biker. The point I was making was that EVERYONE uses bikes, and there are zero cars used in the game.
I finished Mad Max, while I got bored with Days Gone after 20 hours or so.
That's a shame, because days gone arguably improves with it's mechanics towards the end, with more hoards etc.
I think that both of the games lack of story execution and not much things to do. Still loved em tho
Story wise, yes I agree, quite lacking. Although that's also a strength of Mad Max in some respects.
As for things to do... I mean... there's lots to do, it's just a repetition. Thankfully it's fun regardless 😁
I loved the gameplay in mad max but the story was shit and every boss fight was the same. I never saw any of the technical issues everyone talked about in days gone so for me the gameplay and the story was amazing
Fair enough. I think the story in Mad Max is excellent. The issues revolve around its delivery. It's spread too thin across the game .
The story in Days Gone has some good moments, but I honestly found most of it too corny, and like I mentioned in the video, predictable. Each to their own I suppose 😁
Thanks for watching!
@@TheJiffyas a person that hasn't seen any mad max movie, the ending was absolute dogshit in mad max. Days gone's story was alright. But damn was mad max repetitive.
@@raz_xtr1257thats the point of mad max at the end he always suffers and he cannot escape himself and his insanity its a loop that he’s stuck in madness and when he’s close to finally finding some peace its gone
@@Natan_Korkot doesn't make it better tbh.
What if mad max it's the sequel of days Gone🤔
What bitrate do you capture at?
Generally, I capture at 50mbps
Mad max was so fun. Days gone was a slog I ended up not finishing
It get's better toward the end, with more horde encounters etc. But I personally wouldn't bother playing it to round up the story. It did very little for me. Mad Max is a blast though 😁
Im kind of playing Mad Max now. I was really emjoying it until the gastown race. That race is pissing me off.
Yeah, I've heard a lot people struggle with it. I never have, but maybe I just got lucky. If you're interested in a suggestion from me, ignore all other cars right from the start. Focus all your fire power and damage on the leader. Good luck, and God speed 😁
The races in general was my least favourite aspect in Max.
Gas Town isn't too bad if you use the recovery "pit stops"
you should try rage game 2011 its similar to mad max 👍
Thanks for the suggestion :) I actually played Rage when it first released. I liked it, despite it's flaws.
Madmax is such a great game
I whole heartedly agree 😁
Would have been better if WB hadn’t taken it away from George Miller and let him finish his version. Also they stole his production notes so there are some spoilers for future movies in the game
@@russbennett5470 I wasn't actually aware that George Miller had any input into the game's development, so this is really interesting to learn, thanks 😁
both great games but the characters dont really compare I like Austin but Max is way more bad arse
Austin?! Who the hell is Austin? 🤣 I assume you mean, Deacon?
@@TheJiffy yes deacan same shit, Austin st John was the red ranger from power Rangers
Madmax : Highly optimised, visually stunning environment and in world game, forced me to use cheats to complete the game, repetitive, bugs, meh storyline...not bad-not good.
Really? Uhh... Pacman vs Skyrim which is better??!
Pacman
@@TheJiffy alright, you convinced me to pull out mad max and try it again, I just found it kind of boring, days gone is one of my favorites though
Days gone is alright it got super repetitive and boring after a while.. mad max gets very repetitive aswell but it doesn’t get boring, at least for me.

Mad max is better >>>
Days gone 2 days gone 2 days gone 2 days gone 2
Mad max is a good game days gone is a shity game dont bother evan watching the video . I agree with playstation for calling it a failure gane is just blunt story boring gameplay boring quest boring lacks content it chooses mechanics from different type of games and butchers them . If u call a blunt experience without feel a game than go ahead buy it and play it .
Both games surpassed my expectations and now both have a special place in my heart
😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰
They're pretty damn special, eh! 😁
I would’ve liked mad max if we didn’t have to have that mutant freak riding your back.
Whoa, why do you have beef with ol' chum bucket?
So youre saying to finish days gone? I dont know why but i just cant... i dont care for any of the characters nor the story, the gameplay is arcadey and extremely boring. Gunplay isnt really fun.. a real bog to get through
Nah, I'm not saying you should finish it. I'm a firm believer in playing what you want. Life's too short to spend time playing games you don't enjoy. I found the story weak, characters largely forgettable. But I enjoy roaming around on a bike, taking on hordes, etc.
