    Overall: Magical story that will make you cry. Beautiful graphics(and the game is 5 years old). Gameplay that is fun and engaging.
    I rate it 10/10, worth every penny!    … Expand

    Ta gra to dzieło sztuki. Nie wiem, czy cokolwiek, kiedykolwiek ją przebije. Ogrywałem na PC i bawiłem się świetnie. Grafika wygląda fenomenalnie, a muzyka idealnie komponuje się z dzikim zachodem. Ta gra jest definicją pozycji 10/10.

    I won't talk about the technical state of the game.
    The first time I encountered the game I literally fell asleep and didn't enjoy it at all, but years later I wanted to get back into it, and here I have Death Stranding to thank for that, which made me realise that slow gameplay can be fun too.

    In addition to the fact that a huge amount of work has been done on every even minor detail it is also the best open world so far.    … Expand

    At the moment, the best game in the industry. Best graphics, best story, best open world. Very interesting, beautiful game. It's all been said for me, so I will say that the game is a masterpiece that everyone should play. Sad that I cant put 12:(((

    Is it so difficult to make a perfect game? I dedicated 120 hours to the story on XBOX ONE S and 200 hours to the Online mode on PC, and the summary is simple: Masterpiece. Only Geralt comes close to whispering in its ear, no one else. There is no product close to this level of quality.

There is no product close to this level of quality.

    RDR2 has it all, a very well-crafted story, well-crafted characters, crazy graphics, absurdly immersive realism and game feeling, and an open world that actually feels full of details, unpredictable and surprising, something impossible to find in the packaged open worlds we see today. Ubisoft knows exactly what I'm talking about.

    RDR2 is a huge game in size and spectacular in detail, only suitable for dedicated players (not necessarily hardcore) who are willing to dedicate the necessary time for the game to seep into them. If you are a casual gamer, I recommend titles more like Naughty Dog, with an equally well-crafted game feeling, story, and characters, but with a much simpler and linear approach.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a fantastic game that I would highly recommend to anyone who is a fan of open-world games or Westerns. Its engrossing story, memorable characters, and immersive world make it an experience that is not to be missed. The game's attention to detail and stunning presentation more than make up for it. In my opinion, it's easily one of the best games of the last decade.

    Very easily the best and most immersive game out there, the cities are full o people and opportunities and there is so much to do in the game, you truly never get bored of this game, one thing that I feel is the most immersive thing to do is go to a saloon and get a beer and just watch people play poker and play the piano.

    I just had the chance to play this game in 2023.

    It was a really amazing experience. It is not just a game in which you do things that lead to an end, But you get to live the life of the main character, see his evolution and most importantly the evolution of the ones around him, the environment and even the small towns cities evolve through time.

    It is really full of details: Letting you talk to people everywhere, animals scattered all around that feel almost alive (they see them eat, drink water, they're surviving too), decomposing bodies, relationships, some decisions and interactions. it has amazing graphics a really amazing soundtrack and music and as of 2023 the game is completely stable.

    The story telling is really good, and it is a really good story that didn't just focus on shooting people as a wild west cowboy, but you get to feel good, bad, really bad and worst because of the difficulties and hard things you face through the game.

    The only things I can say I didn't like that much: A would have like a better fast travel system and hunting was not really that necessary, the upgrades you can get from hunting are not really needed even if you want to do every single activity in the game.

    I really was not expecting that much from this game but it completely destroyed my expectations for the better. Totally recommended.    … Expand

One of its standout features is the impeccable attention to detail in its physics and little nuances. With each playthrough, you'll uncover new intricacies in the game world that truly enhance immersion. Whether it's the way snow realistically deforms under your horse's hooves or the delicate animations of wildlife, it's clear that Rockstar went above and beyond to create a lifelike environment.

    The game's story is nothing short of great, weaving a gripping narrative that keeps players engaged from start to finish. While it's true that some parts of the story can feel lengthy, these slower moments serve to build the tension and ultimately add to the grand climax. The character development and intricate relationships within the Van der Linde gang contribute to the emotional depth of the narrative, making it a truly memorable journey.

    Voice acting and visuals in Red Dead Redemption 2 are nothing short of breathtaking. The characters' voices are rich with emotion, and the performances truly bring them to life. The game's visuals are stunning, from the sprawling landscapes of the Wild West to the meticulous character models and animations. Every aspect of the game's presentation is a testament to the dedication of the development team.

    In summary, Red Dead Redemption 2 is a masterpiece that excels in physics, attention to detail, storytelling, voice acting, and visuals. While it may have moments that test your patience, these only serve to heighten the overall experience. It's a game that continues to reveal its beauty and complexity with each playthrough, making it a must-play title for any gamer.    … Expand

Well i'm pleased to tell you that Rockstar made an immersive world with possibly too much to do and made it it too realistic for most players...im not scared away by realism , i embrace it. Feeding your horse and cleaning it is pretty cool imo. shaving and cleaning yourself is another item that while not really needed to do is an extra side event. jobs at camp might seem boring but its just another area Rockstar added in for immersion. As far as Gameplay ...ive played about 10 hours and got the idea of the gameplay which we are all familiar with ...Go here pick up mission go follow yellow path complete mission and watch ALOT Of cutscenes. This is not a bad thing and when you add in hunting , Fishing, Poker, dominoes and many other things to do in this gorgeous world , one wonders how they will complete it. And now onto the Graphics... I know graphics are not everything but when you grew up in the 80's and are looking at almost photorealism as far as the scenery , one just stops and stares as I did at lakes, valleys and towns that are almost too real to be a video game.
    For the people that give this a 1 or 0 score...Nothing will please them . is this a perfect game? No. there are issues I have such as the Wanted level you get any time you commit a crime there is someone that is a WITNESS That threatens to report you. no matter where you are. this is annoying since your an outlaw.... and thats what outlaws do, anyway to conclude this review ...if you liked RED DEAD REDEMPTION 1 You will enjoy the second one which is actually a prequel ...    … Expand

И этот день настал. Безусловно это "ранняя" оценка, но могу сразу заявить, что как и прежде это было с GTAV RockStar добились потрясающей оптимизации для ПК. Что три/четыре года назад я со своим древним компом и квадратным моником смог получить отличную графику и минимальное количество лагов, что сейчас, уже с нормальным компом я не испытываю никаких проблем при запуске.
    Не нужно рассчитывать, что офисный Intel I3-***** с радостью потянет эту игру, и что 4-8 гигов хватит, и что какая-нибудь чахлая 1050ti и тому подобная видеокарта с лёгкостью справится с проработанной графикой и максимальными настройками при FullHD разрешении. Будьте реалистами и читайте требования к рекомендуемой спецификации вашего ПК. Я ожидал худшего но со своей GTX1070, видеокартой двухлетней давности, но как выходит - я пока не испытываю никаких проблем при максимальных настройках при FullHD разрешении.
    Для тех кто не в курсе - не выкручивайте на "качество" ползунки драйверов вашей видюхи, и не включайте сглаживание, отсядьте на рекомендуемое расстояние от монитора, и получайте удовольствие. Если же вам хватило ума выкрутить сглаживание на максимум - то конечно ожидайте подвисаний и лагов.
    Повторюсь, люди с офисными ПК - ваше железо хуже даже деревянных приставок, хотя бы до их уровня дотяните свои железяки, может что и выйдет.
    По поводу проблем при запуске, я не избежал их, и был какое-то время недоволен, ибо предзагрузил игру, потом ждал пока это дело "распакуется"(читай расшифруется), а после еще смотрел в бесконечный экран загрузки. Чтобы избежать банальных проблем следуйте простым советам - максимально обновите систему, ибо игра подгонялась под последние обновления, обновите дрова на видяху и в том числе установите DirectX, если лаунчер не сделал это за вас, установщик лежит в директории с игрой, после всех манипуляций с дровами - отправляйтесь в ребут, если за вас это не сделали установщики софта.    … Expand

    My biggest warning to anyone considering purchasing RDR2 on PC is that you need to have patience when you set it up. Take the time to go through each graphics option, compare your performance on Vulkan vs. DirectX 12, and tailor the game to your specs. Once you have the game tuned, there’s no better way to experience it than on PC.
