Please note: Potential Spoilers ahead if you are still yet to start the game.

Days Gone has been one of the latest releases on steam. The game was first published on PlayStation consoles by Bend Studio with its Microsoft version, revealed on May 19, 2021.

Days Gone is an open-world survival game set in a post-apocalyptic Oregon, United States of America, and follows the story of Deacon St John, a drifter who discovers the possibility of his wife Sarah still being alive, eventually leading the former to find her

As the storyline unfolds, not much longer, you will be introduced to Mark Copeland, the camp leader of the Copeland’s camp in the Cascades region, and Ada Tucker, the leader of the Hot Springs Encampment as well. These both characters do provide you with objectives further into the game.

In the mission “Price on your head”, Deacon would have two choices, whether to give the drug stash to Copeland or to Tucker. Giving it to either one of these characters won’t at all twist the main storyline but will only give you an early advantage to cheese out some aspects of the game. Let’s find out.

  • If you give the stash to Copeland: Handing over the drug stash to Copeland would enable Deacon to acquire some great upgrades for his bike, well enough to drift past through the freaks and other bandits. Though the fast travel option unlocks further in the game, having a fast and steady bike does give you an upper edge.
  • If you give the stash to Tucker: By doing this, the trust level of Tucker for Deacon would greatly increase, eventually unlocking a superior set of firearms. Eliminating a horde of freaks or the bandits from Ambush camps becomes much easier with the set of these firearms.

But at the end of the day, you may either decide to go for any one option from above.
