    You stop your horse by the side of the road to listen to someone that is talking to you, someone else rams their horse into you over and over and says you are trying to fight them, then they start fighting you, you win, now you have a bounty.

Bounty hunters in overwhelming numbers come to hunt you, they kill you, when you load back up you spawn some ways away as if it didn't happen and the bounty is still on you, so you go back to fight them again and they are gone, no redemption. You find an enemy camp of a rival gang and sneak up on it, you save so you can retry at a good spot before you start shooting, you almost win the fight but they kill you, you reload your save only to be spawned somewhere else, you go back to the camp and no one is there, no redemption. You are riding to a story mission, surprise bounty hunters start shooting you, but you outrun them not wanting to deal with their annoying mechanics anymore, only to run straight into another giant group of bounty hunters that you cannot outrun and they kill you, no decency of mechanics. You have a huge firefight with your gang when money has been tight and dead bodies are everywhere with money on them, the game doesn't let you pick it up and makes you fail the mission if you do, no decency of mechanics. This game is one of the most passive aggressive rude things I've ever experienced. Trying something, failing, learning from your mistake, and then winning from that learning is the very basics of video games themselves. Red Dead Redemption 2 REFUSES TO LET YOU HAVE REDEMPTION! This is so ridiculous it seems like an inside joke! And do not fool yourself into thinking you have freedom here, You have to do every mission the EXACT way they want you to, otherwise you fail. It is insanely abrasive. "Hey lets keep our guns down, I know how trigger happy you get" if you disagree too bad, it's all extremely rigid. Lovers of Mario, BEWARE, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Lovers of From Software, BEWARE, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.… Expand

    When the critics uniformly agree that something is brilliant that to me is not a good sign. The current 7.5 as rated by the users is actually more realistic. This game is not terrible, unfortunately though its just more of the same we have seen before, but with a horrible gunplay control system.

    This might sound harsh, but at least I finished it, so I can give you an honest overall opinion. I'm also going to try and avoid open spoilers, so it may sound a bit convoluted if you haven't finished the game.

I'm also going to try and avoid open spoilers, so it may sound a bit convoluted if you haven't finished the game.

    I, like most it seems, struggled with the pace and controls at the beginning, but once Chapter 2 came along I "got into the groove" of the game. By then, I was still hot and cold on it - probably sitting around a 5/10. Then at some point I actually started to enjoy it, and I would have been 7.5-8/10. But then Chapter 5 happened - and from that moment forth, any enjoyment dwindled to the point of hatred by the time I'd finished it. At the end of Chapter 6 I was so pissed off, I really had to force myself to get through the excruciating Epilogue chapters (if I want RDR 1, I'd play it - I'm here to play number 2). I know it ties in, but I wanted to keep playing the "path" I was on.

    Pros:
    World - graphically amazing. Some parts (ironically Chapter 5) look jaw-dropping on a 4K set-up.
    Voice acting - absolutely top-notch.

    Cons:
    Everything else...
    Story - what story??? "Just one more job and we're going to leave." Job goes wrong... rinse and repeat for the entire game. I've never in my life heard the same lines repeated so many times, over and over again. Stupid writing, stupid unlikable (most of them, not all) characters.

    Mechanics - I got "used" to them, but never liked them.

    Gameplay - sorry, but the "realism" is BS, and ultimately boring. Feeding/maintaining yourself and the horse gets real thin by the half way point. And the "realism" card so many blind sheep seem to be pulling, is diminished by some really stupid writing (again, Chapter 5, particularly the very beginning).

    There is ZERO progression. The guns never get any better, the fights never get any harder, you don't learn or acquire anything new - there is absolutely no sense of achievement whatsoever. Again, rinse and repeat everything to the point of nausea.

    Side "incidents" started to repeat themselves by the end.

    You'd go into missions with your preferred guns, and the game would swap them out and force you to use what it wanted you to.

    Guns would disappear out of your inventory, and you'd have to buy them again.

    I could go on and on, but there's just too many issues to put down.

    The only mission I cared about was in Chapter 6 concerning the Native Americans, and they even managed to **** that up to with some really stupid story and gameplay-mechanic decisions.

    How this has been getting 10/10's from critics is totally beyond comprehension - unless Rockstar paid for them. Same with users, but some people can't see beyond their adoration for all things Rockstar.

    I expected so much more after GTA5 and RDR (1), so to say this was a disappointment would be a (sad) understatement.    … Expand

    The horse-riding mechanics are terrible, and the game is so profoundly slow and over-indulgent that it takes me completely out of it. Yes, they achieve a level of complexity rarely seen in any video game, but they do it at the expense of a smooth and enjoyable gaming experience. They almost dare you to continue through the absurdly boring and long horsey rides down path after path of their admittedly gorgeous snow-filled landscape. I've only played for a few hours, but I can already tell that this was a mistake of a purchase for me.

    From reading the comments and the endless 10 ratings, I can really only assume that people are going off Rockstar's reputation for making good games. Or maybe they're bots. I'm not sure. But I really can't believe they, IGN and the other game "reviewing" companies are playing the same game I am. The whole thing seems like an intricately decorated, lovingly nurtured, completely hollow experience.

    I am pressing four or five buttons at once at any given time, just to ride and shoot at the same time, or to look through my satchel, or to add things from my satchel to my wheel (which is useless). The "dead eye" thing also has yet to make its purpose known to me.

    To anyone like me who decided to buy this game based on the hype without looking at the reality of the game mechanics, I'd suggest making sure you like this kind of game before dropping 60 bucks.    … Expand

After you kill all 3 lawmen in Valentine for example, there should be time delay before new cops arrive. At least a time of actual horse riding from nearest village. But, hell no.

There's too much frustrating and superfluous detail which does nothing but stand in the way of the fun. The horse system is stupid. There's a crafting system that requires combinations of animal pelts but nowhere to store anything even though you have a large camp. So I ended up just selling my hard hunted perfect skins because I needed room... so I don't even know how the crafting of some high end kit would be even possible. The horse steals back all your rifles every time you sit on it so you always end up in fights with the wrong weapons in hand and if you try to sort out your weapons every time you get back on the horse (which is advisable) you end up pulling out a gun in an area where you shouldn't because it's impossible to even look at a weapon without it then being drawn. You push one button to draw a weapon but then you need another button press to raise the weapon and then another to actually open fire... at which point you realise that the horse stole back your guns and the reason your not firing back is that you're unarmed!
    This control scheme is obviously being kept so as to link with GTA 5 and allow players to go from one to another more smoothly. There's no way this scheme would ever have been chosen otherwise because it's simple unusable. There's even some things that are only comfortably achieved if you have three hands.
    I have struggled through about 20 hours now and have always ended my session in a rage quit because I'm always failing mission s or dying due to the game's overly complex system. In one case the horse stopped in front of a door I needed to go through. The horse will not move for you! So I placed the injured man I was rescuing on the ground so I could get back on the horse to move it away and suddenly the guy dies. Not only was this a mission fail but also for no reason everyone in town immediately assumed I had killed him and went for the lawmen. Not very realistic.
    Red Dead 2 is too busy wowing us with how detailed it is to remember that the gamer is looking for some fun and escapism... but here I am just waiting to make a hundred bullets one by one, each with animation. Or waiting for my horse, or waiting to get from A to B because the hopeless fast travel doesn't even do properly the little it tries to. Everything is waiting and waiting... and then even more waiting.
    This is a cowboy simulator not a game.
    My score was a 2 out of 10 due mainly to complete disappointment.
    It's like finding the perfect restaurant, being served amazing food and then being told you have to eat blindfolded while wearing boxing gloves... you will be annoyed, especially when everyone else is getting their control systems right.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. SPOILERS AHEAD! so i got caught out, I did all the treasure hunts and gold generating methods i could find (excluding cheating) during the story. Then as the people who have finished will know Arthur dies and you then play as John. When Arthur dies, even though Arthur hands John his bag you will loose any contents Arthur has (for me about 15 gold bars among other valuables). This also means you cant go redo the any of these hunts. After contacting Rockstar support asking if this is by design, they confirmed yes it is and your not supposed to retain anything you've worked for before Arthur dies. So for a game that's pushing the story mode you get screwed over when you finish. You are far better off by not finishing the game.

    snippet from rockstar support "I understand you are disappointed with the ending of the game. I know that the fact that you cannot play Arthur anymore didn't bode well with many players. However this is as per game mechanics and we have no control over it. We do appreciate an honest feedback from our players. Thank you for it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have found the controls and the gameplay very unintuitive and the lack of a save as you progress is a bore and finally there is no practice mode or area.
    At the beginning of the story it takes about 10-minutes before you get to the first play scene and then if you die on that scene, (which I did) then you have to go back to the beginning and relive the same story.
    When I finally got to the second scene there is a point where you are guided to remove a weapon from your horse saddlebag and I cannot work out how to do it.
    The movement of the characters I think should be more intuitive and there should be a save option throughout the story.
    I'm not a particularly good player on these things so perhaps my lack of skill does not help but if there were practice areas or help guides then that would aid my chances of improving.
    The graphics are amazing and I'm sure the story will be if I can ever progress beyond a snails pace but for me some key basics have been overlooked.    … Expand

Even once the open world opens up to you... all you do is basic tasks with incredibly long trips. Ride 10 min to punch a guy who owes money once than ride 10 min back to camp.

Ride 10 min to a hunting spot than hunt 1 animal than ride 10 min back to camp. If you hated FF15 and it's car mechanic well it's the same here. Bad boring mission design in a shockingly empty open world. The experience is also hampered by terrible movement mechanics. You walk at a snails pace as if your in Gears of War 1 talking on the radio and you can hold the sprint button to speed up... but you go to full speed automatically and as soon as you let go you are a snail again. Some how there is no jog option so you end up running past things you want or crawling up to them slowly. Shooting feels awful made worse by a awkward implementation of a cover system and the poor movement controls. The game also never seems to remember what weapons I have equipped. It always takes my long arms off my body even though they are hanging on my back not just keeping them on my horse but removing them forcing me to reopen the horse inventory. Maybe the game will improve if the story picks up. But right now it's painfully boring with long drawn out conversations about nothing important with idiots who's names I can't remember. As for the supposed amazing graphics... the best way to describe the game is blurry very blurry.

    I have now beaten the game. It will not be a game I remember fondly. There is only 1 mission in the whole game that I will remember and that was when you rolled up to that house to find the kid. I was really feeling that mission... too bad once you get there the shooting it terrible. I have serious problems with how nearly every single mission is designed and how almost all the story is delivered throughout the game. Everything is tedious without an upside after you bother going through it all. Less than half way through the game and I had all the money I would ever need and fully modified guns, horse, and clothes that I would never need to change. After that almost every side quest in the game was a absolute waste of time with a tiny bit of mediocre story that wasn't worth the travel time. I started to avoid everything and do a straight line for the necessary story line missions because I was done with the game but wanted to know the story. I wouldn't say it was bad but as it started to end I was disappointed with so many actions of the main character that I was totally taken out of the experience. In the rest of the game you can do whatever you want and totally create what type of person you are with your interactions with people. But in the main game I'm thinking "**** you shot that person I liked you are dead". I shoot him mission failed. You also have to just shake your head at how stupid the major fight scenes are. You get 10 hours of 100 people shooting at you as you guys barely move or slowly ride away completely exposed and not a single ****ing person can hit anybody or your horses. It's too absurd for my taste... they needed to design fights better but the AI is so simple they have to throw waves and waves of enemies at you to even force you to move your character. Nothing in this world ever reflects anything that happens. You kill 5 times a towns population and then return the next day and everybody is there.

The missions are uninspired (rob a train.. so very original). The long horse rides at the beginning of each mission are torture (this is the same reason people hated the long sailing in wind waker). The main character don't make sense (you're a murdering, robbing outlaw but you also have an honor meter and you're expected to be a nice guy to everyone in town). If you actually commit crimes outside of the missions you'll have a bounty your head and you'll be killed over and over by the sheriff. Accidentally walk your horse over a cliff, you're dead. Run into a random gang on the road, you're dead. Wild animals, you're dead. You will die often, but not because it's hard, but because something is annoyingly broken or very poorly designed. You must do the quests exactly as instructed or it's game over. I wanted to like this game but there's nothing to like here except for nice graphics. Half the time it's like controlling a boring movie, and the other half it's playing a boring game. I've never been so disappointed in a game.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a terrible game playing. The movements are really slow. I wouldn't say it's a realistic game but too complicated and restricted. The missions are horrible, starting a mission takes too much time. You have to ride back and forth a long way on your horse and there is a cutscene for every little thing. Some of the cutscenes are useless. The missions isn't even worth completing since you just have to get on your horse after and ride again somewhere else to start a repetitive mission and boring cutscene. Every move you do results in a cutscene. The character has more cutscenes or need to make a movement to interact with an object. Like when sitting, mounting your horse or walking inside a store. The movements could be better and faster. Many missions were boring and not adding anything to the game. How is fishing, taking wildlife photography or help some circus folks catching animals relevant to being an outlaw. There are not really any rewards for completing a mission. You earn money that you end up losing because Arthur dies. There ain't even anything good to spend money on in this game. The weapons are bad in combat and you can't ride fast then the npc can't catch up. I hate that you have to wait or follow some slow npc around the whole game. While playing a mission i rode the horse wagon a little bit in front of the npc who hat to sit in the wagon with me. Then the npc couldn't walk a few steps to get in so i had to start the mission over. The npcs just ruin the game for you. I never felt like I was playing but just waiting for npc. I don't get how enemies can survive three or four shots from weapons. The game is reliable on doing it exactly right or it gets broken.… Expand

Более того - одно неосторожное движение в результате которого ты кого-то толкнул или пробыл рядом с кем-то лишнюю секунду и по тебе начинают палить. Отвечаешь ему тем же? Сразу получай штрафы, законников и минус честь!!! Я просто прокачал стартовую лошадь так неплохо и она на одном тонике может проехать от одного конца карты до другого, а я поиграл от силы часов 30. Скорость лошади тут нафиг не нужна, ибо твоя лошадь все равно всегда всех догонитуедет от всех.

    Да, это ГТА с реализмом. Да, случайные события сделаны действительно классно, но деньги тут нужны не больше, чем в той же вайс сити, талисманы и амулеты бессмысленны, так как игры очень легкая, а это еще один ее минус. Абсолютно убогий сюжет и отсутствие влияние игрока на этот самый сюжет. Это просто ХОРОШАЯ игра.

I have beef with the teasing open world view and the linear game play that comes with it. I also want you to remember my review when you are transported to the moon while walking through camp, yes you can't run in your own camp, you must walk slow, a zero gravity slow like Neil Armstrong on the moon. I hear his voice while walking through camp. "That's one small step...." You are forced to walk back and fourth through camp like this to do tedious tasks such as shave,Eat, put money in a piggy bank, help shop for groceries...every anointing task of your life is here, i'm sure later there is a mission where you must wipe your crack clean. The missions are annoying things I want to skip over to get to the rest of the game...that doesn't exist. Enjoy driving a wagon, you will be doing it for hours, don't get you wagon stuck either, your painful and I mean painfully slow wagon. Careful in town too, if you accidentally bump into someone with the clunky controls the whole town may find you in contempt and shoot you too your death. Oh I almost forgot, your hat falls off all the time, if you play through the game you will spend hours on switching and swapping your hat, i'm serious. The actual content of play makes me wonder if I would enjoy a game with a constant button sequence to press more than this. The realism is terrible too, they actually show dead deer being hung on a gambrel without being gutted. You ride with an ungutted deer 5 miles back to camp and start to butcher it without gutting it. I think the Devs must have lacked some real world experience to say the least. The hunting is a complete joke and waste of time. I also wish to condemn the horse riding itself as it is clunky and you hit something and go flying and have to pick up your hat before getting back on.

    I am a Rockstar fan boy, I played GTA on ps1 as a teenager, I love in depth games with expansive RPG characteristics like Final Fantasy, Castlevania Symphony of the night, Metroid, Ogrebattle, I love long games, hard games. The days of Rockstar getting by on taboo subject matter and atmospheric bliss are over, the games have changed again and this linear boorish style is not coming along.I'd rather play GUN for ps2 or Sunset riders for SNES, Blood Brothers, Gunsmoke for NES, I would much rather play the original GTA with Birdseye view than this. There are better games than this that came out this year like Mega Man 11, Mega man X collection, COD or the last few years, XCOM, Mario Odyssey. If you have played BOTW it renders this abomination unplayable. I think I will go play Castlevania for NES to wash this hideous taste out my mouth.

    Gunplay suffers from this, as in favor of realism, the game makes you feel like a toddler trying to operate a firearm while dueling against a seasoned gunslinger.
    Story also suffers from this, as every small bit of plot point is separated by literal hours of riding your horse across the county, cooking, skinning animals and so on.
    If you turn off the game, go out the door and simply live real life, you'd have more fun than playing this game.
    The best parts of this game can be experienced by watching youtube videos of the cutscenes, that's about all the positive things the game has to offer.

    To put it in a simpler term:
    The game was marketed as Ace Combat, but what you actually get is Flight Simulation X.

    Unless you're excited about going through all the same annoyance of real life in your game, it would be more advisable to steer way clear of RDR2, and save your money for an actual video game, and not some over obnoxious real life simulator featuring some cowboys.    … Expand

    It's not a fun game. It's a slow movie. The experience of playing the game is remarkably similar to the experience of watching walk-though videos on Youtube while holding a controller. The 60 hour claim boils down to traveling, long cut scenes, set pieces that require unskilled user input. Players have no choice but to follow the script so there no emotional engagement.

    This game is the most overrated game in PS history. Awful controls, gun play sluggish and the story is uneventful. I am very disappointed and I’m trading in this waste of money for Fallout 76 Wednesday.

    Look I'm going, to be honest, and not hop on the bandwagon, the game is simply boring. The graphics and voice acting are good but the story is so boring. The game forces you to grind way too much, like why do I need to brush my damn horse.

    I can't understand how anyone could give this game a positive review. I guess if you like riding your horse or wagon endlessly to repetitive musac; or listening to dull cowboy dialogue; maybe crappy, clunky controls are your thing? This is like playing a CGI movie where you push a button every so often to make sure you're still paying attention like a defensive driving class.

    Ironically unoriginal and disappointing. If this is your first time playing a Rockstar game, then have fun. For those who have played the original, at least, there's no innovation here. Tedious and dull.

    There's no doubt that its a gorgeous game that pushes all sorts of technical boundaries. but what's fun about a game thats nothing more than a series of chores. cut your hair, eat food, set up camp, maintain camp, cook food, feed the horse, brush and clean the horse, buy supplies, oil your gun, and on and on.

    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]
