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 ...

    Fix after 1,5 weeks fixed all my issues: I finally managed to complete the game and all I have to say is: Wow, the best game I've played by far over the last 10 years. It has everything you want from a western shooter, lively open-world, immersive interactions.

    Played this on the PS4 Pro and I gotta say, the game makes great use of the console hardware. The game looks amazing, the map feels alive with all the animals and the game overall gives off a great Mid-West feeling. The story, although a bit long for my taste presents the player with a great storyline and the relations between the different characters feel realistic.

    It seems that the optimization for the PC version of the game isn't ideal yet but I strongly believe that this will change in the next few weeks.

    10/10 will definitely play again when I have the time to do so.

    Existe alguna manera de filtrar todos esos comentarios y votaciones de niños rata, lloricas, haters, personas con ordenadores de principios de los años 2000 y a toda esa gente que está esperando que alguien saque un nuevo trabajo (INCREÍBLE trabajo) para soltar toda la bilis que puede por la boca?

    Al juego no le pasa absolutamente nada más allá de pequeños defectos irrelevantes que no afectan en absoluto a la jugabilidad, ni a la calidad visual ni a la experiencia general del juego.

    Para no extenderme demasiado, es el JUEGAZO de la PS4 y de la X1 portado con bastante acierto hacia la plataforma PC, con gráficos aún mejores de los que ya traía originalmente (puedes ajustarlo en función de la calidad del PC con el que juegues, si quieres más calidad, suelta la pasta y cómprate algo mejor como hacemos todos) y con la misma inmersión que te ofrece en la versión de consola. Sólo le falta un modo VR o una campaña cooperativa para convertirse en el juego PERFECTO.

    En cuanto le peguen una pequeña pulida a pequeños glitches que ocurren en contadas escenas y optimicen el modo online, sin duda será (si no lo es ya) el mejor juego de los últimos 10 años.

    Así que por favor, ese 4.3 de media que tiene actualmente el juego dista bastante de la realidad (por no decir que directamente son votaciones troleadas por los mismos de siempre). Sin duda, un juego que debería de estar en la estantería de cualquier tipo de jugador.

    I just can't get into the game due to a rockstar game launcher error. I have already updated the drivers on the video card, and updated Windows to the latest version, reinstalled the launcher and turned off antivirus. FIXED.

    Too bad the technical difficulties many people have distract from how amazing this game is when it actually works. Definitely glad Rockstar brought it to PC. I won't touch a filthy console ever. The amazing gunplay and Dead Eye with a controller? No thank you. Every game is supposed to be played on PC. But still, they no doubt should bring it again with PS5/Xbox Scarlett launch bundles in 2020.

    I was really shocked to see the extremely low user score on here. I'm not compensating for that by scoring this a 10.

I started playing on the day it released on my stock FX8350 and slightly overclocked GTX970...I have not had the game crash on me yet in 100 hours. I did watch a youtube video that explained the video settings, I know I'm getting like 45fps but it feels alright with a controller and I've played worse. Considering my antiquated hardware, I'm really shocked it looks and runs as well as it does. The game itself is everything I hoped it would be, I never got to really play the first. The world is gorgeous, huge, and diverse. The characters and story are absolutely epic. The mechanics are intuitive and not overdone. Best $60 I've spent on a video game in years, but maybe I'm just a cowboy that was born 100 years too late? Good on Rockstar for bringing this one to PC, I couldn't be happier with it. I hope they make a part 3.....and release it on PC of course. Expand

    I love the way this game introduces you to new concepts of the game. It reminds me of the original Mario. It starts of simple. Just progress forward through the map. You encounter an enemy that you need to jump over. Jumping over the enemy causes you to hit a block. You learn that blocks break. When you land, you land on his head and learn that jumping on enemies kills them. You learnI love the way this game introduces you to new concepts of the game. It reminds me of the original Mario.

    That leads to an immersive game that you can enjoy from the start.

    I strongly recommend: Don't buy this game whatsoever. Or any other game from Sh*tstars. If you wonna play the game. Download it and don't waste your money on someone who doesnt deserve it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I dont wat to tell you about bugs and optimizations problems. I want to tell you about "nice persons" decisions of creators.
    1. Story. Why u give players choice if it does not affect the ending of the game? WARNING spoilers.
    I spent so much time and all game kill legendary animals to create amulets, crafted enemys, developed main person and his horse for what? For stupid death? 1 hour ago i killed 50 men, but now im coughing and cant run away with John. Where is logic?
    Robbed oil fabric for 2k$ while having 43k$, where is logic? we take from bank in Valentine 6k$.....
    2. Too much limits. Like animations that i cant skip, for example cart buyer, When i did it 30 time i want to delete this ... game. with train and stagecoach same things...
    I cant run in camp, houses in story and many other plays and must 5-10 min walk like in ... garden.
    3. Bad system of reputation. Why my reputation go down if npc start to shoot first? or i robbed dead man in forest? Or angry answer man who first bad called me? or killed dog of bounty hunters? i need to wait when she killed me??? no logic...
    4. Autosafe after death.. Who invented it? Who invented 3 quest in a row? i wanted to see other decisions of last quest and spend 2 hours becouse game not supported sfae in this 3 auest in a row.....
    5. In quest i everytime only the first carabin or rifle...why i cant choose weapon that i want? Set it as the main?Knife too, everytime i have only the usual knife and if i set another one, then aftere another quest or smth it will changes to usual knife... With bullets same problem...
    6. why can not I leave about the prosecution as in the GTA if the lawyers do not see me?
    7. How the lawyers know who i am when i robbed smth or smth if i put on a mask?? How did they do this???Is this face recognition in 1899??

    Think its enough, too many questions that will not be answered...This game do not cost the price that they want...at least 3 times less

    Cant get the game to work for a few days after the release but when i did i cant put it down. Its the best game of this year so far, the last game that pulled me in this much was The Witcher 3. So boo-hoo for the thechnical issues but the game is amazing and worth to play.

    An absorbing tale that will test your machine and tear ducts. A game that did not suffer from being brought to PC. RDR2 is worth overcoming all the shortcomings, since it is one of the best games of the decade. [Issue#300]

    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.
