    Оставлю свой вклад в шедевр от Рокстар. Такой детализированной, продуманной и качественной игры на сегодняшний день увы нет.
    Сюжет шикарен, музыка, звук, да все по десятке! Очень рекомендую тем, кто еще не играл.

    I've felt compelled to create an account just to review this game. Never have I felt a game's reputation is so undeserved and simply there because it's Rockstar, because it's a huge world and because it's a graphical masterpiece.

Never have I felt a game's reputation is so undeserved and simply there because it's Rockstar, because it's a huge world and because it's a graphical masterpiece.

    It's boring as [choose a four-letter expletive]. I don't want to clean my horse, or go through three drop-down menus to find something that restores my stamina core or my horse's stamina core. I don't want to be 'wanted' as a murderer for an event that nobody even witnessed in the middle of nowhere. It doesn't make sense. It's frustrating in how unintuitive everything is. From the controls to the game mechanics. Want to sell some of your invent to make some cash, well, you better get ready to take a four-hour horse-ride in cinematic mode to get to someone who will buy something off you that's supposedly of high intrinsic value like a legendary bear pelt. You can talk to every NPC, isn't that amazing? Erm, no, two sentence non-sequitur conversations where you have to defuse the situation if you dare get within six feet of the person you're talking to. Maybe Rockstar was onto social distancing several years ago. Well done to Rockstar for predicting social distancing and projecting it via time travel into the Old West of 1899.

    I'm done with this game and I barely started it. Please, save your money. Do not buy into the hype and do not buy this game with good money.

    I'm usually a huge fan of Rockstar games but not this one. There are far better open-world games where interactions with NPCs are far more meaningful and side-missions are more interesting than a cinematic set-piece with a bear after five minutes of following clues and a scent trail. There are also far more interesting action-adventure games, you know, the ones with action...and adventure... Not just a big world and impressive graphics.    … Expand

    i’ve never immersed and invested in a game quiet like this before. the world, the story, characters and gameplay and the sheer details. one of the greatest that push the envelope what a video game can be. after RDR2 all open world game have to look at it as a point of reference, though it will be hard to top, but anything less will be unacceptable.

    Even if is a beautiful game, the 80 hours of main history does not allow you to have a good control of your actions to explore, and the very bad 8+ Epilogue destroys the history completely to remind you that is not Red Dead Redemption 2 but RDR 0.5, also de shooting system, is incredible easy to do headshots, which destroy most of the key points on a western based game

    I really liked the first RDR and really hoped that this would be a great game. I did dredge through this monotonous snooze-fest of beautiful scenery and was just left with the annoyance of time wasted with no payoff.

    The annoyance that hit me first in the game is that while it has amazing attention to details, it's in all the wrong places. Like the horse testicles are modeled, but no one bothered to have even a cursory glance at how horses behave. You really can't ride a horse off a cliff, unless there's a lot of trust to begin with. Also, you can't ride a horse into a tree, even if you wanted. In RDR 2, the horses will run into trees and off cliffs, even if you have just stolen the horse. This is just stupid and immersion breaking. It's like the devs have never actually seen a live horse, let alone interacted with one in any capacity. Also, the movement of there character movement is nicely physically modeled but they control like they are walking on stilts.

    The story was also just phoned in. The same story arc is told several times with minor variance. The characters are mostly at least adequately written, but the story does not reflect these characters in any way and forces and even requires them to behave in a very different manner than what the characters would reasonably do. The story also drags on and on with not a lot of story to tell. This is not up to Rockstar's usual standards.

    The gameplay is clunky, not a deal breaker, but nothing to write home about. The less said about the horses, the better.

    The worst thing about the game is in its pacing. It does seem like a giant middle finger pointed at the player. Most of the time is spent going from from point A to point B. There's also an astounding amount of busy work that's neither challenging or fun. The absolute low-point for me was a house-building sequence, where you just tapped a single button for several minutes, what engaging gameplay. There are some high points in the game but they are few and far between. The mission lengths were also all over the place with no real indication, whether the mission would be a shorter thing or 1 hour ride-to-several-places. Not that the missions couldn't be partitioned in a way since most of the long missions are spent just going to somewhere, slowly. The completely arbitrary mission lengths would not be so annoying, if you could save in the missions and not having to play a boring riding sequence again if you want to go to sleep or something.

    All this being said, RDR 2 has a good game in it, but it's just buried under a huge pile of pretentious disregard for the medium. Then again, the single player story might just be a lazy throw-in for a cash-grab multiplayer.    … Expand

    I think that this game is very boring. I'll admit that it is a very beatiful game and út has a great game mechanic, bit I think that it's only a GTA V copy with western style. I should've made this game tó a GTA V DLC instead of a complete AAA game.

People say the world is immersive but I can never enjoy it for two minutes before some **** runs under my horse and the whole entire retarded police department of Saint-Denis goes after me or I push more than two people and immediately I must pay a 5,000,000 dollar fine for **** reasons.… Expand

Huge, yet detailed and full of things to do. A great story. Customization. That's about where the "good" ends for me. And don't get me wrong, these are big parts of a game...but the bad, too, is...significant.

    The gameplay feels like two different teams struggled against each other to unify into one vision. On one hand, you have the ultra-realism. They create a huge world that seems to be alive and breathe. It's obvious you're meant to feel immersed, to really care about the characters, story, locations, and so on. And then a minute later you're sprinting around on a mission, forced to gun down 30 cops like you're playing GTA. Do you want to make a hyper-realistic game, or an arcade shooter? Pick one or the other because the inclusion of one kneecaps the other.

    They often took the realism way too far, and the gunplay not far enough. People don't want to sit around watching Arthur slowly pull cans out of a cupboard for the 451st time. A simple skip button after the tutorial would have fixed this. People don't need to sit there dumbly mashing a button for five minutes as you attempt to ride your way back to town from a mission. Again, a simple "automatically ride to x" option would have fixed this. Nobody wants to sit there blankly staring at the screen mashing a single button. How was that supposed to be fun? It wasn't, but it's done in the name of realism. And there's where the gunplay is supposed to come in. This is the intended "fun" part of the game. And yet it feels so boring and hollow. You go into cover, pop up, enemies can't aim but if they hit you, it does nothing, anyway. You gun them all down paying half-attention, a cutscene plays, and now you have to ride back to camp for the next five minutes. Again. And again. And again. The good writing attempts to salvage this, but the formula being the exact same thing gameplay-wise for just about every mission overwhelms the save attempt for me.

    Outside of these criticisms, a final one may be in that, several months after release, some of the game's mechanics still barely work and seemingly have been abandoned to cash in on Red Dead Online's microtransactions. The masks only work half the time, and if they don't, it can easily be some guy you've never seen before recognizing you...somehow. Want to get off a train? After watching the overly long cutscene, you'll have a guard throw a fit at you for being on the train. Despite just using said train and trying to now get off. Like Poker? Don't play in Saint Denis - something went wrong there and a certain character constantly destroys everyone else at the table for whatever reason (Google it). Sometimes your horse avoids trees while running. Other times it pushes you directly into one.
    In many ways, Red Dead Redemption 2 feels like an amazing game in concept, that is heavily damaged by its extremely outdated gameplay and obsession with a system of realism that it, by itself, sabotages. Trading fun for that realism was a gamble, and it looks like it worked out for them, but in my opinion it probably shouldn't have. I can see an argument for a 8 (Any higher is overboard, honestly) depending on the player, but for me...6.5 rounded up to a 7.    … Expand

However, this game isn't perfect and is far from it. There are multiple bugs I've encountered, weird animations, bad pacing, and bad mechanics. Despite all of this the good parts of this game outweigh the bad, so let's get into this.
    Before I dissect this game, let me lay down a few things. First, I'm only going to be talking about the story and not about the online component of this game, because that requires a whole other review. Second, there are going to be spoilers, so if you haven't played this game be aware. Third, this review will probably miss a few things but keep in mind this is my first review, so let's get started.

    To begin this review, let's start on the world of Red Dead Redemption 2, which is obviously the strongest part of this game. When you are just roaming the open world of Red Dead Redemption is when the game's at it's best. You are instantly immersed in the world and really feel like a gunslinger cowboy. The world is so in-depth with about 70 different species of animals all fully animated and given different interactions. As you ride around the world, you will encounter random little side quests that require you to help people out or maybe the people trick you and try to rob you. The world is huge and even after you finish the campaign there's still so much to explore. On the service, the world might seem very shallow because most of your time is just riding your horse around open plains, tall mountains, snowy forests, and hot desert plains. But, if you take a moment to look around, you can see so much is there for you to witness and experience. All the NPC's have specific routes they follow during the day and night and all these specific actions that they take apart in. After using your gun's for a while you have to clean them so they function properly, you need to maintain your health, stamina, and deadeye cores, you gotta change your clothes so they fit the environment you're in, and so much more. When all these things come together, it feels amazing but it's very rare when all of these work so well. That's the main problem with this game, all the components are so vast and complex but don't always function the way they are supposed too and the game's always flipping between letting you do everything by yourself to then holding your hand like a little child. This leads to the biggest problem with this game, control.

    Control is something that every game strives for, maybe the game wants to control you on what to do and when to do it, which is perfectly fine in a game if they stick with it. Or, maybe the game wants to have no control over the player, which is also fine if the game sticks to it. However, Red Dead Redemption 2 is constantly flipping between letting you do whatever you want and holding your hand like a baby. One moment the game is letting you explore every little thing the way you like, you see a woman getting harassed, you can either watch it or intervene and try to help the problem. You see an animal as you are riding your horse, you have the option to hunt it or just let it live its life. Need some money, you can go get an honest job, or you can go rob a train to get money fast. That's all amazing but the game constantly, as I said before, is holding your hand. Which leads to the missions of Red Dead Redemption.

    Let's first start with the side missions of this game, then we will get into the main missions. Most of the side missions feel so fun to do, and at times feel like main missions. Most games have trouble making a gamer want to do the optional content but Red Dead Redemption's side mission's lure you in with its charm and just doesn't let go. Each side mission takes you into the life of all these NPC's and makes you want to learn more about all of their stories, and the characters are another strong point of the game. However, the main missions are a bit of a different story. Like I mentioned early, the main missions constantly flop between linear and open and it just doesn't work as well as I want it too. Which is sad because I love a lot of the missions and the concepts they introduce but are just ruined by some of the choices Rockstar made.

    Now let's get into the final part of the review, the characters/story. I love so many characters in this game, all of them are so well crafted and have so much depth. However, the only problem with this is there are too many characters for me to keep track of. These characters are still so good and I love every second that we got of them. Now the story, the story is absolutely groundbreaking. I love so much how Arthur is conflicted with wanting to be good, how he is good but knows he won't ever be due to the Gang. I love the ending of Arthur's story too, as he starts to break apart from the gang and wants a better life for everyone.    … Expand

    RDR2 is a fun rpg, but you do have to accept the cowboy thing. The story is long and somewhat repetitive, but really interesting if you see it like a small cult problem. I often like the side quests more. The graphics are superb and the world design is just amazing in details. Facial animation is a mix bag and depends on what character is in play.

The sounds are spot on. I was impressed by all the animals sounds. The gameplay is a mix bag. The gun fights are acceptable and often fun, but I have experienced a lot of targeting issues. The horse riding required bounding. But the difference of going from the first level to the last isn't that great. There was a lot of small issues with the horse: placement, control, getting stuck in objects. I greatly recommend you do manual savings. Relying on auto save will put you in bad situations. I give the game a 82%. Small bugs all around but the game is huge. By no mean this game is for children, it violent and gory.… Expand

It excels in a way where people are not able to mention many (or any) other game with such a story and level of detail. The writing of the characters is fantastic, just to mention my absolute favorite, Dutch, and the main protagonist Arthur. By fact, Dutch’s charisma makes him my all time favorite video game character. From beginning to end, following him and his community/gang in the eyes of Arthur Morgan is a unique experience that no other game has been in a position to be. Artistically speaking, I cannot think of something that is not perfect with RDR2. The whole decently large open-world is visually stunning, full of random events and things to explore. It would take a while for a novice gamer to notice any pattern of similarities. That’s what crazy about RDR2: detail. Visuals, sounds, interactions with the world (to and from), everything is made with an extreme level of detail and finesse. That aspect of the game helps immersing the player as from the beginning, and might improve retention during the slow first 2-3 chapters.

    In what regards the gameplay, the result is very good as well. Character handling, horse handling and weapons all feel nice. It’s not overly responsive, but just enough to have a good gaming experience without ruining immersion/realism. In terms of things to do, I wasn’t bored for a second during my progression. There are so many things to do in RDR2 without ever feeling repetition. However, once the main game is finished (main missions + honest deal of side missions/activities) what’s left to grind for is repetitive. All that said though, I can easily conclude that RDR2 is one of the best solo games I have ever played.

    That brings me to my next point which is where I think R* screwed up: Red Dead Online. I am one of those players who at this day still consistently plays GTA Online because of how good it is (sure has defaults and things we hate like all those OP too unrealistic vehicles, but I cannot lie to myself, I’ve played it hundreds of hours). GTAO has an extremely developed free roam mode, with constant major updates and a ton of things to own and grind for. It also has a ton of lobby based activities among which some are now already pure classics among my circle of friends (Sumo, Offensive Defense, etc). I close the parenthesis which introduces my point: RDO terribly lacks of content. My friends and I were hoping for so much, we imagined crazy ideas based on what we believed R* learned from GTAO, but it ended up being a disappointment. It sure is super fun to wander around in the first hours (especially if you don’t know the map yet), doing the few story missions and completing some activities (all updates included), but after that, there is nothing really more to do. For the purists, that might even have still been fine, but then comes the worst: RDO servers. The trashest, most unstable ever made servers. How many times did I get disconnected once, twice, 5 times, 10 times in a single day? Way too many. Even GTAO which is far from being the perfect student on this, works way better. It is irritating at a point where you want to pray in order not to get any disconnection. I know this issue doesn’t just happen to me, but to a very high fraction of players.

    This is why my rating has to be balanced with a player’s priorities. Someone who doesn’t care about RDO at all will probably find arguments to justify a 10/10 rating. But if you are one of those who had high hopes for RDO, then you might think a 7 or 8 would be more justified. I am part of those who love both solo and online. I can’t see myself giving anything less than 9 to such a solo masterpiece, but I cannot give a 10 due to frankly disappointing online features. I hope R* or any other dev studio will be able to create such magnificent games in the future. But without overlooking the online components, it’s even better!    … Expand

    Want to play PVP? there are only 30 people in one session in large map. you can join the SHOOTOUT event = loading 60 sec, waiting to fill the group another 60 sec, then 2 short rounds of play come on, then you wait until the lobbies are loaded for the next match, until they fill up with players until the new round is loaded. All this means that 60% of your time is waiting

    I played 2 hours today. I caught 2 rare animals, so I wanted to take them to the campsite, I spawned one, ran to it for 3 min but wasn't there. I spawn it elsewhere, but it wasn't there also (you can reload game but you will loose your animals...), so after 10 minutes of running around the map I took the animals to the shop and lost profit

    then I got a mission to catch 6 bandits. I ran into the mountains for 10 minutes, I started catching them. BOUNTY WAGON could not be called anywhere in the snowy mountains - even if i was standing on large flat surface. After 15 minutes, all the bandits escaped me because I couldn't call a wagon at any point.

    Thank you for wasting my time in every aspect of online gaming

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am very disappointed in this game. I had spent money was looking forward to it. But in the first mission in hand-to-hand combat on fists in the barn, my hero simply did not respond to the push of the strike button. That is, I and my opponent just stood in front of each other and did not fight. I thought - it happens, and restarted the game again. 15 minutes later, the situation was repeated. Then I restarted again. Do I need to say that the game kept me from beating that guy again? It's worth noting that this damn game doesn't even give me a chance to save (this option locked all the time since start). In other words, it takes 15 minutes to get to the ill-fated barn and make sure that I'm stuck again this time. Wasted time and money.… Expand

Et même à ce niveau, c'est raté car il y a beaucoup de choses qui font sortir de l'immersion voulue. Je ne suis pas fan de GTA mais je préfère encore celui-ci à ce RRD2.

    This is a really hard game to rate - as it's a love-hate thing for me. The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison.

The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison. So much care and love has gone into it - and it has pushed my poor PS4 to its limits. There are so many amazing experiences in the game. So many hours of fun and exploration. However, there's also a lot of banal time-wasting in a sea of nothingness. The real problem with the game is as a sandpit experience it's brilliant. You could live this life and never feel discontent. However, the game forces you (literally) to take an extremely linear 'scripted' approach to playing that it becomes a war of wills - if you submit to the 'my way or the highway' approach, then you will enjoy... otherwise you will never get to enjoy what this game offers. For a vast open world game - the 1P experience downright punishes you for being bold. As a result it is programmed for the weakest players to complete - which means you feel like you're playing a TT game more than an open world game. What I found particularly egregious was that you would start an innocuous sounding mission only to find that you are now embarked on a 4 mission marathon... without any opportunity to save or take a pause. Great if you're the only one using the PS4, but like most people you need to share, which doesn't work well when you can't save progress or pause between missions. I undestand the narrative pace part... but please... we live in the real world. The other thing that was annoying about this game was that there's never any real increase in difficulty - it's only more and more enemy. To the point where I seriously doubt anyone could keep track of the number of people that Arthur guns down... which is at complete odds with the whole redemption arc that is forced upon the character. So there's a lot I didn't like (in fact hated) about this game... however, I WAS one of those that was prepared to just invest my time in the 'experience' and go along for the ride. Oh - but if you've not played it... the one advice I would give is that don't worry about money - or how to spend it. This is perhaps the most badly designed part of the game as it completely undermines the entire premise of the story. Stoopid. Just completely stoopid. As a I right this - I wonder why I gave it a 9... but it's for all those moments of joy... and just cringe-worthy fantasy-living experiences.

    Edit - on reflection, I actually think the limitations and constraints imposed on the 1P game really detract from the experience - in an otherwise brilliant game: dropped from 9/10 to 8/10    … Expand

    I'll start by saying that, in my opinion, no game is worth a perfect score. Not Mass Effect, not Shadow Of The Colossus, not Breath Of The Wild, and certainly not Red Dead Redemption 2.

    No, it doesn't. And thank God for it. A perfect game shouldn't be sold, it should be gifted to every living soul to be appreciated.

    Anyway. Onto the review's subject.

    RDR2 is a good, but flawed game. And its flaws take root in fundamental aspects that Rockstar definitely needs to look into because this is an out-of-fashion way to make games: with an identity crisis.

    Want to roam the gigantic world? Feel free to, but beware of the people who'll attack you, and don't defend yourself in front of policemen or you'll get a bounty. Wanna shoot that horse's leg to prevent your enemy from fleeing? Too bad, we had planned for you to use that horse to escape, try something else. Do you like that revolver? Here, play this mission with a shotgun then.

    For the most part, RDR2 doesn't know how to approach player freedom without either making it seem stupid or completely pointless. And that shouldn't be one of an open world game's most glaring issues.

    For a more practical listing:

    Pros:
    -The software's world is beautiful. Like eye-piercingly beautiful. Every corner has been carefully crafted, every single detail masterfully implemented. Be it the untamed wilderness or the busy city center of Saint-Denis, everything feels real. Technically and artistically, it's a masterpiece. Rockstar, I salute you.
    -The writing is good. The ending takes the cake as the best VG ending of late 2018. A good portion of the main missions and all side quests are cool. The characters are cool, they have motivation, distinct personalities, they feel tangible, and spurt out great lines from time to time. And especially...
    -Arthur Morgan. Best Rockstar protagonist. Actually feels like a human being, struggles and evolves, unlike GTA V's overly stereotyped fellas (not a complaint, they're written to be like that and I'm fine with it).
    -The music has its ups and downs, but it mostly shines at the right moments. Shout out to the ending (again).

    Cons:
    -What I explained earlier. You mostly watch the game happen instead of playing it. As an example, forcing the player to walk at a certain pace and in a certain direction doesn't feel rewarding.
    -Gunplay is basically auto-aim-lift-the-cursor-headshot. Come on now.
    -Controlling Arthur is hard. By hard, I mean that he either handles like a freaking semi or spins around like a top. Also, by preaching ultra-realism, some minor activities become actual chores. I needed to dedicate an entire hour every few couple of them for baths, food and whatnot, because it takes an entire 10-second animation loop to pick up anything. I'm all for little bonus animations, but I didn't need to watch the entire process of Arthur crafting his arrows ONE BY ONE.
    -Feels weird to say this, but the game is TOO long. I'm more than 80 hours in, and I barely finished the main storyline plus the epilogues while being fairly focused on doing them in priority. The problem is, it's not long because the scenario's taking its time. No. It takes time because you sometimes have to ride across the entire 180 km² map to reach the next objective, or walk (not run, walk) through all of Saint-Denis.

    This game made by any other studio would be worth a 5. But Rockstar's sheer attention to detail and quality of writing bring it up to 6. That is purely out of respect for the team's dedication to creating a world that feels alive and characters that actually are.

    Happy New Year.    … Expand

    Ну, поиграл я немного (20 часов), но могу сказать что в сюжетном режиме дох*ище контента, а вот в онлайне поменьше. Также в онлайне урезаны некоторые механики, например рост волос и тому подобное.

    A triumph of the gaming industry. A beautiful world, a Hollywood story and one of the best protagonists in any media. Absolutely a must play and a game of the generation

    After 60+ hours of intense, epic game play over a vast canvas of stunning locations, I finished Red Dead Redemption 2 on PS4 and immediately wanted to play it again. A sublime, crowning achievement for Rockstar Games. Full-on masterpiece in every sense of the word: sensational graphics, biting dialogue, immensely fun quests, and brilliant story twists. A must-have for any PS4 owner!

    Single player is great but playing online is a fu***** disaster.
    Countless bugs making it nearly impossible to play that game online.

    I will just say that I went into RDR2 expecting a GTA cowboy style and the Valentine butcher told me what the game was about in just one line: after maybe 3 hours of gameplay I aimed my revolver at him, I was expecting him to run or to pull up, instead he said "Are you going to kill an honest man?". Rockstar made me mount my horse back and just ride for 2 hours in no certain direction toI will just say that I went into RDR2 expecting a GTA cowboy style and the Valentine butcher told me what the game was about in just one line: after maybe 3 hours of gameplay I aimed my revolver at him, I was expecting him to run or to pull up, instead he said "Are you going to kill an honest man?". Rockstar made me mount my horse back and just ride for 2 hours in no certain direction to clear my mind about killing a butcher that doesn't even exist. I have no words to describe how full of everything RDR2 is.… Expand

    Unbelievable boring.

    Most time you watch some boring cut scenes or are riding from a to b.

    Recommended for people who love an game with only 5% action.

    This game is a piece of art and no less. About everything in the story is developed to perfection and lets just say I was in tears by the end.

    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]

    The first new game from Rockstar for this generation of consoles doesn't disappoint, it is as impressive as you hoped it to be.
