    The law system is probably the only real flaw, as the “tedious” gameplay is only a flaw if you don’t like the attempts at realism

    After playing Cyberpunk 2077 i can just now appreciate how insane this game was. I played it just a month before CP2077s release cause i upgraded my PC recently. The difference is night and day.
    RDR2 is a true groundbreaking game that set a new standard for all AAA devs.

    Things that are beyond good in this game are almost everything. I cant get enough of it. The story is insane, Arthur is the character that made me cry for the first time in a video game, the level of detail and the amount you can explore and actually find stuff is incredible. The world is genuinely ALIVE unlike CP2077. You can talk to NPCs, you see animals, you find interesting stuff everywhere.

    As much as people rag on RDR2s combat its very fun. It might be an unpopular opinion but i find it really fun. From the point blank executions, takedowns, unarmed combat with guns in hand to long range snipes and shotgun blasts that take off limbs i can safely say its fun and satisfying. Its fairly simple but its good.

    The world is something else. Its legit 11/10. The game is beautiful even on the PS4 and XBOX One from what ive seen. On PC its absolutely incredible and it ran perfectly on my PC which is mid end btw. I was averaging 50fps on Ultra which i couldnt even understand how i was.

    The characters are just amazing, considering how many there are and how well written all of them are im amazed by that too.

    I mean its the best game ive ever played. This beats both FNV and Witcher 3 which i didnt think at all it would, i didnt think FNV would ever be topped for me but here it is. I expected a fun all action, rockstar style witty, sandbox game like GTA5 was. Nothing that would make me legit CRY and feel genuine emotion. Amazing. Best game ever made imo. Incredible job Rockstar.

    El juego simplemente me pareció una obra de arte. Voy a enumerar los puntos más destacables:

    Para empezar tiene uno de los mejores gráficos y detalles que ví en mi vida, los cambios de clima son impresionantemente realistas, los animales y plantas tambien. En segundo lugar, está la vida que tiene el mundo, a uno hasta le llega a dar pena matar a un NPC de lo real que se siente, los eventos aleatorios se enlazan de una manera perfecta a la historia principal, me ha pasado un par de veces de haber salvado a una persona y más tarde verlo en un pueblo que me reconozca y me premie por lo que hice. Uno se siente el protagonista en todo momento. Piensa que está ahi.

    Y por último, pero el punto más importante para mi, es la historia. Me parece una de las mejores que he visto, si bien es un poco lenta, está llevada de una manera perfecta, a medida que avanza el juego conocemos más a los integrantes de la banda, nos encariñamos más con unos que con otros, y nos preocupamos por su bienestar, donar al campamento es algo que sale de nosotros. Arthur Morgan, es desde mi punto de vista, el mejor protagonista de videojuegos que ví en mi vida, su evolución a lo largo del juego no podría estar hecha de mejor manera. El desenlace que me tocó a mí, es perfecto.

    Si uno espera un "GTA de vaqueros" se equivoca, es un juego mucho más centrado en la historia, un juego distinto y hay que valorarlo por eso, es un error muy grande a la hora de hacer una reseña compararlo con este juego constantemente.
    Lo recomiendo muchísimo vale la pena cada centavo, es uno de esos juegos que uno piensa que estafo a la compañía y no al revés como estamos acostumbrados.
    Sin duda un juego que me marco.

    El único problema que le veo es el Online, se hace muy repetitivo y carga mucho tiempo, que era un problema que ya se veía en el GTA V. Pero supongo que va a ir mejorando a lo largo del tiempo como el GTA.

    Lo único que es mejorable es el online se hace muy repetitivo y los mismos problemas de carga que en el GTA V, tarda un montón.

O jogo tem uma narrativa incrível e um trilha sonora espetacular. Uma qualidade gráfica com detalhes impressionante e uma ótima storyline como sempre é esperado pelos padrões da Rockstar. O jogo pode ter momentos entediantes para alguns, pois há cenas em que há imensos diálogos e viagens à cavalo, o que não significa de maneira alguma que o jogo é ruim. O jogo é um prato cheio para quem gosta de uma boa História.

    O enredo é muito bem construído e os personagens tem uma profundidade enorme e são bem complexos. Cada um tem sua própria personalidade unica e você pode sentir empatia e em alguns casos ódio deles. A atuação é impressionante e o personagem principal tem uma construção insana ao longo do game. Você evolui e se apega cada vez mais ao personagem ao longo da história.

    A ambientação única de cada estado, o sound designer, as animações e a interação com o mundo desse jogo faz dele um jogo obrigatório na sua lista.
    As paisagens desse jogo são insanamente lindas.
    O jogo tem um aspecto quase-realista com algumas adaptações que fazem o gameplay mais fluido (o único fato que pode incomodar alguns jogadores é que você deve tirar sempre as armas do cavalo e você tem um limite de duas armas para carregar, que apesar de ser um aspecto realista, desagradou parte dos jogadores).

    Este é um daqueles jogos que será lembrado com muita nostalgia daqui a alguns anos e é um novo marco na história dos videogames. Não há palavras pra descrever esse game, é uma verdadeira obra-prima.

    Off the bat I hated this game. The intro was slow and long, and I was worried it be a game that cared more about presentation than game. But boy was I wrong.

    I have no patience in games. I want to get in JRPGs, strategy, etc but can't. Don't even try to get me started on Walking Sims. So it should say something how the slower life simulator aspects make the game immersive as hell. I have played basicay every AAA open world game, but not a single one has ever created a world that feels so alive and dynamic (except maybe BOTW) while having one of the greatest character stories ever told in a video game. Let me explain:

    As good as many open world games are, they often feel like giant hub worlds with mission starts and collectibles to get. Things can happen but it still feels like you're almost in a glorified level select with npcs. But in RDR2, nothing feels like a checklist, and there is just so much detail and Rockstar have found a way to implement it so fluidly you'll lose all your time to just exploring and living in it. Just getting on your horse and going to an area you haven't been is inherintly rewarding bc you never know what you find.

    It isn't an rpg so stats and upgrade items are really a thing, what you'll find are unique and interesting landmarks or stories. You may come across the remains of a suicide cult, a haunted house, a lonely woman learning to brave the wilderness on her own after her husband died, bumbling KKK idiots you can firebomb, etc. All incredibly written, voice acted, or just told through the scenery and notes. And this goes for the entire game. Everything is done to most excruciating level of detail, whether it's the jaw dropping graphics, the unparraeled quaility of voice acting, or basic mechanics on how characters and animals move and interact with the world.

    You'll see a lot of reviews saying how the over concentraction on "realism" hurts the momentum, but trust me, as someone with little patience, once you get into it it truly all adds to what makes the world feel alive and real in an engaging and fun way. Yes it's still the same rockstar gun mechanics, but I found it satisfying as all hell bc of the dead eye mechanic and the outstanding sound design that make the shootouts intense and visceral. And it also does have kind of a morality based mechanic effecting the narrative but done in a way that's entirely baked into the game and effecting by how you play vs a shallow pick and choose (the best I can compare it to is Silent Hill 2) that really ties what happens to the person you made Arthur to be. So I cried like a gosh darn baby at the end of my first playthrough bc you feel so attached to everything. YOU are Arthur Morgan, the horse you choose is YOUR best friend, and this is YOUR story. While there are games that are amazing bc they feel very gamey and I wouldn't want every game to try to be like this, I believe this is an evolution in games as an art, using the medium to immerse you in a way no film or book can.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is the best video game that I have ever played. Red Dead Redemption 2 is set years before the original Red Dead Redemption which was also a 10/10 game. The story follows Arthur Morgan and his journey in the Wild West surviving with the Van De linde gang. While it starts out slow, don't be fooled. The story picks up very quickly and there are a variety of fun things to do. You can chose to be an outlaw, killing destroying and causing havoc or you can be a man with good morals and in the end die as a legend. What the story does so well is that much like in the original Red Dead Redemption, it puts you in the main protagonists shoes in this case Arthur Morgan and his incredible journey. Every moment of the story is emotionally beautiful and incredibly well written. The graphics are the best in a video game that I have seen to date. The idea that this game is boring is incredibly absurd. There is hours of gameplay and content to immerse yourself with whether it be fishing, exploring, hunting, finding Easter eggs, shooting side quests and of course the main story. The idea that "Chores" is embodied throughout the whole game is quite possibly the stupidest thing I have seen. Chores is a choice in this game not something that is forces down your throat. Gun mechanics have also improved along with almost every other old aspect from RDR1. As a player of the original Red Dead Redemption, a game that I truly loved, this game is slightly better. Its story, grasp on reality so much that it seems like a second life and poetic writing combined with the fact that yes, it is extremely fun to play despite what some of these idiots actually think. Red Dead 2 will make you cry, laugh, and play with your emotions like a damn doll. RDR2 is the greatest game that I have played, I have played hundreds of other titles like Zelda, Halo, Mass Effect, God of War, GTA, Metal Gear Solid you name it. THIS IS THE BEST OUT OF ALL OF THEM. I have invested hundreds of hours into it and I will say, this is a once in a lifetime experience that you can buy for 80 dollars or less. Calling it just a game is an insult for it is so much more than a "Game" its a second life and an incredibly well written piece of history. Thank you Rockstar games for a hell of a ride. Expand

    Red Dead Redemption 2 might be looked upon in the future as where gaming accelerated into a new generation. With outstanding graphics, story-telling, immersiveness and a detailed nature even Sir David Attenborough would be proud of, Red Dead Redemption 2 takes you on a long journey through the revolutionary times of America where old cowboys suddenly have to face the growing industries andRed Dead Redemption 2 might be looked upon in the future as where gaming accelerated into a new generation. With outstanding graphics, story-telling, immersiveness and a detailed nature even Sir David Attenborough would be proud of, Red Dead Redemption 2 takes you on a long journey through the revolutionary times of America where old cowboys suddenly have to face the growing industries and cities.

    RDR2 is a story driven masterpiece and approaches life long questions as friendship, loyalty and anxiety in a great way. It's one of the few true depictions of how human beings should act when things actually go to **** which is refreshing for once. The main group of people is a tremendous mix of interesting characters which grow on you throughout the story. By simple stuff like having a party in your camp, you get to know the different characters and they truly feel human.

    Without spoiling anything in the story, it's great. It's a long narrative that is paced greatly. Even though it does take some time to really accelerate into gripping, once it starts it's absolutely amazing. Certain episodes of the game are more or less Oscar-worthy, with scenes that would be historical would they be shown in a cinema.

    The athmosphere, world and detail is great. Riding your horse can trigger random events which you can enjoy or ignore, the animals behave in a way no game has ever seen before and the world is huge with a lot of detail. It's one of the few open worlds where there's a lot of stuff to do even though it's massive, and a lot of different activities are spread around the world.

    If there's something this game is lacking, then it would be the pretty repetetive gameplay with rather basic gameplay. Playing as Arthur itself does not evolve throughout the games more than receiving new weapons, which is a bit lackluster. However, this is carried by the story which puts you in new situations giving you new type of gameplay with the same gameplay.

    While many people might disagree with this game, especially looking at it from a gameplay perspective, I must say this is a true masterpiece. For me, this is a story, not a game. It's about Arthur's life and the life in America at this time and how the people would tackle it. It's a journey of friendship in the most difficult times which is for once actually displayed sincerely. As a story driven game, nothing currently beats Read Dead Redemption 2, and I believe it will set the bar for future games for a long, long time.

    I simply love this game. The creators pit so much love and work into making it, and it shows! The lighting in this games is great. And the graphics are amazing. One thing I didn't expect was how moved I'd be after playing this game. I really like the music they created for this game as well.
    Also the horses look and moves fantastic!

    Excels in all areas, especially story. The world is absolutely gorgeous, there is so much to do and explore.
    The gameplay is fun and it's always satisfying getting headshots or getting into a drunken brawl. I can understand people's complaints of the horse riding being a too much of the game. My rebuttal to that would be, it's the wild west. They used horses to travel. Also once fast

    This game is everything you want from a huge developer like Rockstar Games. I've spent a around 700 hours in this game, and I still encounter new stuff I haven't seen before. The world is huge, full of life and full of dangers. The story is perfect. That's the only way I can describe it. Anyone who says differently obviously doesn't know what a good game is. The gameplay is amazing too.This game is everything you want from a huge developer like Rockstar Games.

Yes, there are some glitches. Yes, sometimes you get stuck in an invisible wall or someting like that, but that doesn't bother me and so many others. Why? Because those moments do not stick in your memory as much as all the awsome setpieces, the music, the shootouts, the robberies, the horsebackriding, the bonding with your gang, the hunting, the fishing, the weather, the graphics and so much more. It fascinates me how much details are in this game. Play it, and you'll know what I mean. The graphics are grounbreaking. In 2018, it was the best looking game out there. This game deserves it's attention and all the good ratings. It is a masterpiece in every aspect. The controls can be a little clunky at some times, but that doesn't break the immersion of being a cowboy in the late 18 hundreds.

    (people who give this game a bad rating don't know what they are talking about ;)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is everything we wanted from Red Dead 2 and more.

    The open world map is utterly breathtaking and so rich with content but as a Rockstar production this was to be expected. The surprising part was the emotional rollercoaster we went on with Arthur from start to finish. The story could have gone horribly wrong but as a single player game it is spot on.

    For those saying the story offers very little, you couldn't be further from the truth. Arthur is essentially a criminal and yet you feel empathy towards him throughout. The scene with Arthur riding to Saint Denis and the song Unbroken playing, is nothing short of iconic.

    I have played this through three times and there will be many more to follow. Brilliant

    Это просто шедевр, я проходил концовку на одном дыхании. Многие говорят, что большой проблеммой игры являются долгие скачки на лошади через всю карту, так вот не согласен с этим. Если двигаться четко по сюжету, то долние перемещения будут в виде кат сцен, если же путишествие организовываете вы самостоятельно, то во время него будут великолепные виды и часто появляющиеся легкие передряги,Это просто шедевр, я проходил концовку на одном дыхании.

    It’s an huge, outstanding piece of art – worth the hard-earned cash as well as countless hours that are needed to get to know at least some of the attractions of Rockstar’s rendition of Wild West. For those who put story first – the biggest virtue of Red Dead Redemption 2 is that it sets the stage for RDR 1 and does it wonderfully. [13/2018, p.40]

    Amazing not only for Western lovers. No other game has probably offered so many options to express yourself in the open world, and at the same time did not have such an interesting, rough and moving story. A magnificent experience, with a slightly slower start. [Issue#291]
