    The game looks like GTA 5, sometimes it seems that this is it, only with mods. Rockstar had a good advertising campaign, but I personally did not like the game. At the beginning, she tries to seem interesting, but these are just scripts to start the game.

    This game is good at graphics and atmosphere as western, but its operationality is very poor and we have to learn too many things to play well.

    Horrible gameplay...perhaps the worst in any game to date. Everything from movement, to interacting to gunplay feels clumsy, slow and unsatisfying.
    And despite all the effort that went into world simulation, game, like every Rockstar game fails miserably at crime system.
    How the "journalists" managed to not criticize this, is absolutely unbelievable, considering this composes 95% of the game.

    Great graphics, boring gameplay. This is probably the Budget of the Year game for Marketing! not for gaming. Rockstar is working too explicitly to bring high point reviews here, all of their PR is driving people to metacritic, just to recover their score. Come on Rockstor, you produced a good game, but can not live up to hype. You can't buy reviews with false advertising.

Horse riding isn't fun because of the controls and constant button mashing, theres a left stick for running and riding, USE EM ROCKSTAR! Until the end of chapter 4 the story is boring. Chapter 5 & 6 arw great, but that's not good enough. Overall RDR2 is an okay game, but nothing special and absolutely overyped by the media.

    Like, imagine a western film, but instead of utilizing montage, Sergio Leone instead makes you watch Clint ride his horse from town to town in real time. Also, once in a while he makes you play some Big Buck Hunter to get to the next scene. How does this improve the experience at all?

Playing on a ps4 (since rockstar could not be bothered to port it to pc) the game looks dreadful, getting incredibly low frame rate at almost every scene. The gameplay is not that good, the open world is extremely detailed yet EMPTY, people saying that this game is a new standard for video game open worlds are wrong, everything within this games open world has been done since morrowind. Its nothing new, just another open world game where all you do is ride your horse for 12 minutes to shoot one guy, having a big world does not mean its a good world, look at any modern bethesda open world game they may not be the biggest but they are the most detailed, content rich and absolutely packed with something to see, do talk to look at, pick up. RDR2 suffers from the open world game curse, where they think big and empty is better than small and full.

    I'm about 20-25 hours and while adoring the packaging I find it difficult to appreciate its contents.
    I'll explain.
    Net of superlative graphics, the game presents approaches that clash and screech each other in a paradoxical way. You make me a slow game, perhaps cumbersome, full of tricks from a real simulation that requires a certain dedication? There wallowing. Every evening I camp,    I'm about 20-25 hours and while adoring the packaging I find it difficult to appreciate its contents.
    I'll explain.
    Net of superlative graphics, the game presents approaches that clash and screech each other in a paradoxical way.
    You make me a slow game, perhaps cumbersome, full of tricks from a real simulation that requires a certain dedication? There wallowing.
    Every evening I camp, I prepare food, packs projectiles, I wash constantly and I take care of the horse as if it were my son.
    But why do I immerse myself in this magnificent philosophy in a skeleton that in disguise is still an arcade? Why propose a world so vast without any plant really from gdr?
    The dead eye takes away all fun in the long run and the assisted aim is even worse. Can I take it off? sure, if to aim was not an agony. Is it an agony because the PG is a beginner? Then I would stay there, but this would mean that the pg evolves into experience and maybe at the level x is released dead eye and aim assist.
    Can you make me a sketchy temperature / clothing system? I adore. But then let it be an accessory of a real looting, in which I buy clothes that give me adrenaline stats, vitality, strength, etc. Is not it credible with the world?
    Why help a comrade out of prison by killing a whole town and then pay a fee and go back there is a smile? No, and for charity it should not be, it's a video game.
    Then the world.
    Cross and delight.
    Never seen anything so beautiful. Never seen greater missed opportunity.
    The one mission philosophy for time is absurd for this scaffolding and, even if we want to follow a strong narrative choice in which it is a story, what I have to live, not a narrative of mine, is standing in a bad state.
    Already experienced many experiences in which the mission x that could be between point A and B of a principal (solitary or non-hyper narrative) can not be triggered because I have to do the mission chosen at the time and only that.
    Examples? I collect debts and I remember that on the path between one and the other there was a bounty. Can I do it to break and give better rhythm? No. On the contrary if I pass the npc that I will magically find there are not and will only spawn at completed debts mission.
    Or. I'm going to do a robbery to a diligence and in the path known an NPC asking for help. I approach. I can not interact. Is it more consistent with the fact that the mission is being carried out? Maybe. Is it fun / fulfilling? No.
    I was playing today again at TW3 for example. I'm carrying out a mission and in useful points the NPC in front of me always asked me the choice "do you want to continue or come back later?". Or anyway I could leave the npc halfway also starting the following step and going to hunt a monster and then come back wanting. Those to the cd projekt are naive that do not think of certain dynamics? No, on the contrary it is just thinking about the fun of the player who made the game flexible. At Rockstar they made a game for pure onanism, emphasizing choices of gameplay because "integrity" when they had to stand with their feet on the ground and think that the gamer must also have fun.
    And be clear, sometimes with rdr2 I enjoy it. But at times.
    I eat my hands every single time open the map for example. I open and I see an exterminated and beautiful thing with ... one, maximum two, three counters. Why? What is it really for? Eight years and I do not have an Indian faction to do separate missions, or a corrupt police faction or anything else to keep a varied rhythm? The old and buggy Skyrim had stupendous wizards, thieves, murderers line quest and the thing kept him more alive than ever. Now sure, I do not say to deliriously losing the compass of the main story but for God it's all a voyage of beautiful fractured horseshoes. And furthermore, where to sell an item I have a receiver far from the other. Do you use trains, stagecoaches or fast travels? All right, but then we're admitting the damage.
    And the few missions?
    Two random.
    Secondary. Bounty hunt.
    Ride 10 minutes to Strawberry. A casual encounter of a woman in search of archaeological finds. Nothing special. I arrive and take the poster. Another 7 minutes on horseback. Dude in a cave. Shoot ralenty to disarm it. End of mission. Time of action. 40 seconds. Maybe.
    Primary. Robbery at home.
    10 minutes on horseback. Arrival and companion that suggests me diversion him and I sneak. Shooting in any case after 5 seconds. Killed everyone in just 2 minutes. End.
    A mission in an open world AAA almost in 2019 can not be reduced to a single action. It is unacceptable.
    Else. Last but I would have to myriads to mention. The wanted system . A disaster.
    Ah, last but not least. R2 interaction? Option speaks, phrases of circumstance. Offensive option, shooting. Wow. The only thing worth noting is the great work in making 6000 different answers. Same on animations.

You have the option to skip cut scenes, but that isn't an instant skip, it's a few seconds if a black loading screen that is almost as long as what you are skipping. There is no skill involved either, you press auto-aim then fire in combat, that's it- often I had something blocking the way too, between my gun and the enemy, forcing me to move from cover. I was too bored to be in any way immersed in the story, didn't catch my attention at all.

    one piece of an advice to my fellows gamers "DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE"

    Pros :
    High Production values .

    Cons : (I will only mention a few of many here )
    1- Very very bad controls
    2-shooting is not fun (I enjoyed shootings in some games like Uncharted and TLOUS and Battlefield but maan!
    isn't this game suppose to be a cowboy game when shooting is the main focus thing and most polished element in the game ?!!
    shooting is not fun and the aim assistant is just ridiculous (I know I can remove it but still controls suck any time you try to shoot without it )
    the red eye is just too powerful and ridiculous .

    They should have copied uncharted shooting mechanism if they cant invent a proper one for the 3rd person view
    and copied battlefield or call of duty shooting mechanics for the 1st person view.

    3- camera ffff... camera transition between 3rd person to 1st person is not smooth and it suck and the 1st person view is just too clunky. (the transition made the screen disappeared for like milliseconds which killed for me to switch during shootouts ) and the first person gone is just the worst

    their are many other cons I will not mention here because the above were enough to make me stop playing the game,

    I don't understand the 10s that the game have got its 6 at best..
    Reviewers either stupid and just follow the hype, or they are just greedy bastards who just got paid...

    it make no sense and no excuse for rockstar to not develop a proper shooting mechanism with all the billions of dollars they make)

    and one last thing; RAGE engine is just SUCK!! while the landscapes looks beatiful, the character models and character skin is just BAD... with all the billions they made they should by now developed and engine like EA's forstbite engine or even better !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    For 90% of this game it is little more than a movie or walking simulator. During the 10% of the game that is legitimate gameplay, said gameplay is very bare bones, clunky, and simply boring.

Having said that, the game environments, and character interactions are a bit more detailed than what you'd find in other games. However, as the holy word once said, graphics without gameplay is dead. Most of this game is spent riding a horse listening to some character ramble some uninteresting and poorly written exposition while you wait for the chance to actually do something that amounts to more than just pressing a button and watching the character go through some drawn out animation to do something mundane. Even after fast travel is unlocked, much of the time during missions is spent riding a horse while someone rambles some boring nonsense. When you finally happen upon those rare instances where you get to play the game part of the game, you realize it has the depth and detail of an Atari game because they didn't bother to give those parts of the game any attention at all. It's uncreative and lacking of anything beyond the very basic mechanics necessary to make a game and said mechanics have no polish at all.

    This game is like decorative food. It has very little substance, if any, but it's incredibly ornate with plenty of detail. It's a waste of your time at best and there is not one hypothetical person I could, in good conscience, recommend this game to.    … Expand

I LOVED RDR, I'd rate it a 9/10. This is just tedious. I'd rate it lower if I could. I bought this yesterday, played for 8 hours, returning it tomorrow.

    • Lack of inventory involves spending a horrendous amount of time trying to improve with minimal benefit

    • Gun play must have been pulled from Red Dead Revolver, it's slow, unwieldy, and requires aim assist

    • Forces players to move at severely reduced speeds to artificially lengthen game, there is only about 13 hours of actual game play, but you are forced to move through the game slower in order to make it seem longer to beat.

This is the    Critics have praised the attention to detail, quality of graphics, and size of the world. The game is visually incredible. What the "Pro" reviewers failed to point out are major flaws that you don't see until you have put a bit of time into the game.

    The controls are barely tolerable. Your character is forced to walk geriatric speeds in camp, buildings, and missions. This is the beginning of the frustrations. Moving on from that you have the lack of no real fast travel. The other faster methods of travel are often minutes away. Riding the horse gets old, especially with it's affinity for going directly into trees.

    Half the missions are formulaic: take a long ride with heavy exposition from the NPCs, who are also **** at you for not going exactly the right pace. Get to a token shoot out. Return to camp. This is interspersed with too many cut scenes. The over arching story is good but it's dragged out twice as long as it should be. A lot of the missions don't need any skill at all, just press X or O when the game tells you, follow the rails to the end goal.

    The side missions are a mixed bag. Poker, Dominoes, Blackjack, just aren't worth playing because of how little they pay out and how long they take. Hunting is okay but it gets overly complicated with the game requiring you to craft special arrows and hit the animal at the perfect spot for the perfect pelt. Bounties are fun, fishing is fun. Looting turns into a chore. Holding X for 2 seconds each time and lining up your character just right so you see the dialog box gets old FAST. Doesn't help also when NPCs are around rushing you.a

    My eyes were telling me this game is incredible. However every time I put down the controller I didn't feel much of an urge to pick it back up. If anything the game feels more like a second job than a fun time. You literally would need a notepad/to-do list to be able to complete some of the challenges. Rockstar forces you to play the way it wants. Which is to take in the world ALL the time, whether you want to or not.    … Expand

    When you die the game takes away ALL your pelts and reloading an earlier save does not get them back.
    Not to mention "Dead Eye" works when it wants to. I rarely bothered with it because it rarely worked. I remember I had to restart the console during a main story mission just because it wasn't registering me mashing R1.
    Also your character is a klutz, I have never played a game where I accidentally robbed someone while trying to mount a horse.
    On the topic of crime, why do NPCs randomly shoot at me unprovoked, but when I shoot back it's a crime? Another thing happened where I literally walked by a corpse(no guns equipped and no mask on) and was reported for murder. Also, the game won't let you carry more than one bear pelt for realism, yet the moment you commit a crime the police arrive in seconds. That's **** ludicrous. It's a game, let me carry at least 3.

    All this sounds amusing, until you realize this happens CONSTANTLY. It's funny the first time it happens, but gets old fast. I broke 2 controllers playing this game and I have NEVER done that before.
    Rockstar damned near killed their staff making this game but for some reason I am not allowed to keep my pelts when I save the game? How on **** earth is losing 3 hours of progress because the game rolled the dice fun? That's simply bad design.

    this game is fastly moving towards a GTA wannabe, next thing they will add is flying carriges and overly explosives weapons. which they already did by adding the explosive bow and arrow. what a stupid thing to add especially when playing in a pvp match or a free for all map where spaces are limited or tight someone uses an explosive arrow and its not even a fun fight. its just stupid.
    the people making these games are obviously just implimenting the same crap that was added to the GTA series.

    The game itself dropped a massive spoiler during the single player story, two thirds of the way in, essentially telling the player a major final outcome of the game.

    The horses are constantly running into nonexistent objects, as if the horse hit-boxes are far larger than the horse itself. You'll be riding along and then suddenly appear to hit an invisible wall, potentially resulting in the death of you and even your horse. Your horse will also make giant leaps over nonexistent objects and again if it lands badly, you might die.

    You will run into a lot of trees, until with much relief you find out that you need to allow your horse to navigate them for you, except that relief soon goes down the toilet when you find that your horse will happily run you into trees by itself too.

    And continuing on the massive hit-box theme, your horse will often get stuck in small or nonexistent objects, so that you cannot move. This really sucks if you're trying to complete a mission against the clock or have baddies after you and sucks even more in PvP.

    In PvP, making money is a slow tedious struggle, so many people have been resorting to exploiting glitches and fighting over the regions where those glitches are triggered.

    If you try to make money in legitimate ways, if the game does not screw you, other players will. Expect your horse, laden with perfect pelts for sale, to be killed by griefers, causing you to lose all your hard earned resources.

    And if you do manage to get to an NPC that you should be able to sell your items to, expect them to be unresponsive for some reason. Just standing there, staring into space like zombies, with no option to interact with them. Then suddenly some griefer rides up and kills you and your horse while you were trying to figure out why the NPC is frozen. Never mind, you don't need that NPC now, since all your items have been destroyed.

    Oh and controller response is awful. Very laggy and inconsistent.

    This game is beautiful, however the unusable controls completely ruin the experience and it is just more micro-transaction hot garbage from R*.    … Expand

    From its slavish conceit of realism, compulsive bigness, and astounding disinterest in telling a story worth the several dozen hours it demands, Red Dead Redemption 2 fails to justify its own excessive existence.

    My disappointment in Red Dead Redemption 2 stems from the assumption that the sheer extravagance of its excesses bears some sort of inherent artistic value. You're just left    From its slavish conceit of realism, compulsive bigness, and astounding disinterest in telling a story worth the several dozen hours it demands, Red Dead Redemption 2 fails to justify its own excessive existence.

    My disappointment in Red Dead Redemption 2 stems from the assumption that the sheer extravagance of its excesses bears some sort of inherent artistic value. You're just left with a labyrinthine chore of an open world that repeatedly undermines its own intent.

    RDR2's gorgeous expanse is irredeemably cheapened by a mistaken belief that "more" equates to "depth." All of the detail is wonderful and beautiful to experience and look at, but once the novelty wears off, a creeping, empty joylessness settles in instead. Throwing in pointless garbage is not what makes a virtual world feel like a lived-in experience. RDR2's selective realism shatters all illusion that its obsequious fetish for detail contributes to immersion in its story.

    The core design of the game's mechanics continuously contradicts itself as it tries to find its own identity. Despite being a game about outlaws and the "wild west," you are on rails for the vast majority of the main story's missions. The colossal world, while beautiful to look at, offers no meaningful interaction despite its excesses. In its haste to give me everything, Red Dead Redemption 2 finds purpose in absolutely nothing.    … Expand

    the aim is broken, the horse riding is broken, the animals like snakes and alligators have broken AI, the gameplay is too slow, the story is basically just going from point A to point B and kill some people, the story is basically 90% riding to and back from your mission, the game has a broken robing system in which the npcs just walk away and say stuff like no while you are pointing a gunthe aim is broken, the horse riding is broken, the animals like snakes and alligators have broken AI, the gameplay is too slow, the story is basically just going from point A to point B and kill some people, the story is basically 90% riding to and back from your mission, the game has a broken robing system in which the npcs just walk away and say stuff like no while you are pointing a gun at them which is pretty glitchy, the game lacks the option of giving us freedom, you can't run in camp and in some other areas which is super frustrating, overall the game is good and all but it's just boring and i couldn't get myself to finish the game because of how boring and bad the missions were and the openworld eventhough there was so much to do most of it was just riding on your horse from here to there with no fast travel. it has a fast travel which works only from the camp and the trains don't even get you close enough to your destination. after playing this game for 30 hours or more i can say that this was the most horrible game ever and whoever says otherwise is just a **** rockstar fanboy who just can't handel the truth. i wasted 30 hours on this game and i want it back, the game was so boring i had to go back to playing god of war for the 3d time.… Expand

    this is my message to Rockstar:

    I just purchased the Ultimate Edition of RDR2 and I'm extremely dissapointed in the graphics of this game. Had I known the game was going to look like this (not even close to GTA5) I would have never purchased it. After spending hours trying to get HDR to work, I finally went online and saw the issue isn't isolated to me. So I followed others advice    this is my message to Rockstar:

Had I known the game was going to look like this (not even close to GTA5) I would have never purchased it. After spending hours trying to get HDR to work, I finally went online and saw the issue isn't isolated to me. So I followed others advice and disabled HDR in the game.

    This did help the game's graphics a little, but it seems like it's blurry, too dark at many times, has a layer of graininess, and the motion blur or whatever that's going on seems to make things worse.

    I can't believe the step down from GTA5 graphics. This game was built for this gen platform yet it seems like many steps backwards.

    Are you guys trying to fix this, or is this what I'm stuck with. The game play seems to be fun, but these graphics literally hinder me from seeing animals, sometimes people, etc. and truly make this a very unpleasant experience.

    There response and closed the ticket as resolved:

    Thank you for contacting Rockstar.

    We understand you are still experiencing graphical issues with Red Dead Redemption 2. I completely understand your frustration with this issue since the game is newer than GTA V and should have updated looked graphics with little to no issues.

    We are aware of players experiencing issues with HDR and graphics with the PS4 and are currently looking into it. We sincerely appreciate your patience while we look for a solution to this hindrance.

    If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us again.

    Best regards,

    Keelia K.
    Rockstar Support.

    Nearly 3 months from the release date. Pretty much every review site says this is the greatest game for the ps4. That's a big fat lie. I have spent more time adjusting display settings than actually playing the game.

    It would be nice if game reviews were honest and quit misleading people.

    Yes, the gameplay is fun, when you can see what you're doing. And on the ps4 PRO that isn't a whole lot.

    Or maybe Arthur is half blind and I just haven't made it that far in the game?    … Expand

    А так я не знаю.. все как-то не так.

Но эта механика быстро надоедает и только бесит.
    - отстойные PvP режимы
    - злой и читерский мир. Вот пристал ко мне почему-то мужик посреди поля - я ему вмазал, но понизился рейтинг! Как? Что белка доложила шефу ближайшего поселка? Это просто бред. Получается на руках мир, где только можно безнаказанно зверей убивать, но если люди, тогда разу "вертолет" за тобой шлют. По мне так это убивает то погружение, которого они пытаются добиться сра**м накликиванием кнопочки бега
    - странный урон - иногда какие-то ваншоты проскальзывают,
    - невозможность оторваться от преследования. Тоже еще та история. У них датчик джипиэс с моим местоположением???
    - большой и пустой мир. Я понимаю за что критикуют Ubisoft, но почему их модно критиковать, а рокстаров нет? Это такой же пустой и неинтересный мир, где тупая лошадь еще спотыкается(!)
    - плохой UX и анбоардинг пользователей. Меню и ux у рокстаров всегда был плохой, но анбоардинг хотя бы сделать нормальный можно? какая-то черная плашка, которую легко пропустить, в углу один раз появляется и все
    - плохой UX инвентаря. Ведьмака почему-то за инвентарь ругают, а вот тут ситуация на несколько порядков хуже. А еще это черт**ое оружие, которое пропадает в лошади где-то по окончанию миссий... рррррр

    Игру продумали в деталях всяких типа красивая дымка и как лошадь кладет кучи, но главные аспекты Human Interaction не продумывали и не улучшали со времен 4 гта, от чего игра бесит и не доставляет удовольствия    … Expand

    All kinds of useless settings go without saying, the task is also a lot of repetition, a large world but very empty, mandatory increase in the player's game time, the most intolerable thing is that when the task is completed, there is a scoring system. Online games also have great disadvantages, such as plagiarism of PUBG, etc.
    I really doubt what I've been doing for years.

    Overhyped trash that got a higher score than God of War cause of the shills of this industry but still could not even win the Game of the Year award because truth be told, it wouldn't have deserved it. Rockstar have lost their edge and San Andreas is still to this day their best game they ever created.

    I don't get how everyone thinks this game is good?
    It is the most boring game I've ever played. It reminds me of th Back to the Future game only with better graphics. It is overly boring, the characters are crap, it tries WAAY to hard to be pc. The wanted meter etc is terrible, for a game that is meant to be so good, the bounty hunters appear out of nowhere, the missions are too easy,    I don't get how everyone thinks this game is good?

There is not one endearing character in the game, and I frickin loved John Marsden in the first one. The controls are crap, if you don't shoot anyone in a mission where there is multiple people to shoot, they will eventually all die anyway. If i wanted taken by the hand in a western I would watch Clint Eastwood. This is basically a movie you have to press buttons with sometimes, that takes 60 hours to watch. And the story isn't very good. But give it a ten because the horse has balls that dangle less in cold weather and you can make coffee. The most boring things ever in real life. Big effing wow. Total garbage. Waste of £50.    … Expand

    DO NOT BUY!! There is an error with their server that they refuse to fix. Millions of consumers cannot play this game and they're not fixing this issue. If you buy and are unlucky like some, you've wasted your money. This game had potential, I'm sure the ones that get to play it, enjoy it. Most of us cannot play and are cheated out of money.

    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]
