    es el MEJOR juego que e jugado en toda mi vida muy bueno el online es malo pero el modo historia es una joya no solo el poder interactuar con un monton de personajes sino tambien el realismo y la epica historia.

    I honestly didn't like this game very much.
    There were interesting moments, but it did not impress me.
    Pros for the graphics, sound. The plot is boring at times.
    I remember buying on the day of the premiere and I was terribly excited, but the game did not give me any unforgettable experience. Maybe my expectations were too high?

    This is by far the best game I've ever played in the 38 years I'm on this planet now. The level of detail is amazing and from a technical point of view RDR2 is the new reference for me. Full cloud simulation for example is something that I've rarely seen before and never in this quality. You cannot compare this to something like Assasins Creed Odyssey because it's simply on another level.This is by far the best game I've ever played in the 38 years I'm on this planet now.

The PC version is even better in terms of graphics. I very highly recommend it, this is a milestone in computer gaming and an absolute must-play.… Expand

    what a bitter disappointment..yes the graphics and the details are amazing and the story was going great up untill the point where Arthur dies..that whole plot doesnt make sense..Dutch doesnt make any sense, he leaves Arthur over Micah and Micah just **** off with the money while Arthur dies alone and Micah got what he wanted??!! **** me. requested a refund,i hope i get my money back.

    They did a good job with the story, and world, but this is not a game, it is an interactive movie, follow X, go to Y, click Z for 10 minutes

    Controls are the worse Ive ever experienced, slow, and unresponsive, my controller lost years of life me clicking so hard... Missions were too easy and you had to go though 30 minutes of nonsense stuff before starting o really play each mission.

    If you want an amazing story driven open world game and you like western movies you don't have to look any further. Amazing graphics,one of the best storys ever told in a game,fantastic character writing. (Suggestion: Ignore the online component it's a crappy boring grinding simulator full of microtransactions)

The whole experience as playing Arthur Morgan an extremely likeable outlaw, is a journey that kept me engaged from start to finish. This game is far from perfect however, the controls are not smooth and the missions are very much rinse and repeat. Rockstar want you to follow their missions to the exact path and not veer away to how you would want to, which really seems counterintuitive for an open world game.

    Certain parts work so well, the hunting system is great and the side quests where you meet someone you have helped out previously adds so much realism. The story and writing is really a 10/10 and something I’ve never experienced in a open world game before but the clunky controls and linear gameplay hold this back from being a true 10.

    There is nothing less than perfect in this game: gameplay, graphics, sound, characters, ambient music and a wonderful open world that ranges from the coldest to the hottest areas.

    And if there's something "reprehensible" it's that you can only go to Mexico through a glitch.

    The mission in the game are so progressive so it's recommendable for you to explore first then play the main missions. The gameplay in the late game for me is just a big factor for me not putting a 10/10, it's just worse than the early game but the ending of this game is pretty good. And DON'T SEE ANY SPOILERS it will ruin your experience just like me. Other than that this game is good and it's comparable to The Witcher 3.    … Expand

    An incredibly boring game. I barely mastered the prologue. Online is at least a little more fun, but it does not addictive either. The story is silly, the characters are not interesting. It feels like the plot was written for children under 5 (or screenwriters, children under 5).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played on PS4 2 years after release, have not finished main story but has played significant amount of time in multiplayer.

    Positive:
    • Graphics - the first time I turned this game on I was greatly impressed by the graphics and couldn't help but take lots of pictures with its photo mode. The lighting was superb and added to the ambiance of the game at whatever time and place. The colour scheme was well used to simulate temperature from either a snowy mountain or dusty plains.
    • NPCs - NPCs are not perfect but they are well programmed to the point where they act as how their person would act in a situation you give them such as greeting, antagonize, bumping into them, pulling out a weapon, etc.
    • Content - Rich content, lots of things to do and the world is filled with unique events.
    • Chance to earn gold bars in-game which can also be purchased with real money

    Negative:
    • Multiplayer connection not the most stable but handled well playing between China and Australia
    • Would be nice to have a passive system like GTAV to stop players from bullying someone who just wants to chill out.
    • Rarely updates for special seasons/occasions, boring for multiplayer

    Final Verdict:
    Definitely earned its awards and praises - I didn't play the game on release so I may be biased, but this game is definitely worth buying. Only play Online if you have friends to play with or can get along well with other players enough to start a posse.

    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.

    I'll start with good, great graphics and optimization, but for my taste - a cool plot, albeit a little long. The most important thing is just a great open world, I just get tired of describing everything, I probably don't even know everything. Of the minuses, I can mention the police system and swimming. 10/10

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a game that does everything in its power to force you to play it one way. It has the illusion of being an open world game, but there are very limited things you can do.

It has the illusion of being an open world game, but there are very limited things you can do.

    First off the bounty system is broken. If you try to be an outlaw you will have a bounty placed on you. From time to time magical bounty hunters who seem to have cell phones and the ability to teleport always find you. Odds are they will kill you because the shooting mechanics in this game are very weak. Thats par for the course with Rock Star games. Robbing a train in single player outside of a mission is rather pointless. Once you dispatch all the guards on the train who are immediately alerted to your activities, the train comes to a screeching halt. This happens without fail and more law men appear out of no where and they will continue to do so. Sure you can try and rob a train, but it will end up costing you so much more in the long run.

    Truthfully this game wants you to just play the story missions. Hunting is a complete waste of time and you make so little money doing it, that its not worth doing at all. The game is at its best when you stick to the story. The map size is not the biggest they have ever made. Sure it takes forever to get anywhere and fast travel isn't really a thing. Sure you can hop on a train or take a stage coach, but the stage coach wont take you if you have a bounty.

    The game only holds an sense of realism onto the player. The world and all the NPCs in it seem to be able to do whatever they like without consequence. Stop a murder by killing someone and you will likely be reported for murder. The game doesn't want you to be an outlaw although your character is and if you try to be one it will punish you.

    Honestly for all the hype this game is a huge disappointment and missed the mark. It isn't even close to being as good a game as GTA V. I commend them for trying, but it is truly limited by the time period. Whats really disappointing is they didn't really improve upon Red Dead Redemption. I would dare say that game was better than this one.

    Also at the time of this writing there is no multiplayer. Even when it comes out there won't be much to do. This game will be forgotten in no time because it just isn't that fun. They tried to put fun things in it, but it isn't enough to make it enjoyable. For instance you can put a mask on your character when committing crimes. Despite this everyone knows who you are immediately, no matter what. Makes me wonder why this mechanic is even in the game. Seems to me it was just a story mechanic.

    I would say either don't buy the game or wait for a sale. Also play it with a pillow near by because its a snooze fest. If you have anger issues avoid this game as it will make you want to punch anything around you.    … Expand

    1. The character unequips the rifles within 1 minute after mounting a horse. I've begun more than one time a mission with only the revolvers, because it leaves them on the horse and you often can't go back to take them

    2. The Epilogue was too long. It could be like 60% shorter and still tell the same story.

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

I have to applaud Rockstar for creating a game that makes you really feel you are reliving those cowboy days. Music is also top notch and at times, I really felt like I was the main character in a classic wild west movie. The game nails the atmosphere. Where the game drops points for me is in the actual gameplay and the fact that the single player feels longer than it should be. The last 10 hours felt like it was better left out and really felt like a chore to finish. The character that you control feels extremely clunky and at times I got really annoyed. It feels like they tried too hard to be realistic and sacrificed fluid game mechanics for that goal. Framerates were also terrible on my PS4 so if you really want to play this, get it on PC instead or maybe on the next gen consoles.

    Its a good game, that ultimately gets let down by its lack of fluid gameplay and a campaign thats longer than it should be.    … Expand

    Once again i'm disappointed that the protagonist of the story gets killed. I think I would have finished the extra parts of the game if he was still the main guy as opposed to going back to John again. Also with the story it becomes a little by the numbers by the end, I wish you could have had a choice of when you exited the family as it becomes so blaringly obvious that Dutch and Micah are leading the family to hell. Annoyed that it wasn't Arthur that killed Micah too and it felt disappointingly uneven that Micah got away from Arthur before he died. Hopefully RD3 will feature maybe a new set of characters as I think i've had enough of these ones after two outings. Maybe seeing what happened to Charles in Canada would be interesting though.    … Expand

    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]
