    This game is absolutely fantastic! I had been waiting for this game for a long time now and now that I've got it, it got me completely hooked. The score, the dynamic weather system and the completely believable characters are overwhelming! The intro of the game made me feel like I'm in a Westworld episode directed by Tarantino. Tonnes of exciting side quests to keep me busy for the coming days.

    A genuine work of art. No video game has captivated me as Red Dead Redemption 2 has. The world, the story, the gameplay and the soundtrack. An absolute masterpiece.

    Thank you so much for this Rockstar Games

I honestly could go all day about how great this game is but I'll just keep it at that.

    Sidenote: It honestly amazes me how Rockstar just nails it out of the park everytime, they definitely have another timeless classic on their hands with this, I'd even go as far to say that this may very well be the "San Andreas" of the Red Dead franchise.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 has to be the best game I have played to date, every single aspect of this game delivers something which I haven't experienced in a video game before.

Starting with the story. The story missions, in my opinion, are the best I have ever played within an open world game, all of them are very unique and there isn't much repetition at all. Due to you being in a large gang, Rockstar has given every gang member a story of their own which almost feels like I'm not even playing one single story campaign, but several, where I can listen to each individual gang members story to see what all of them have experienced. The story missions vary from action-packed robberies to tense stealth missions and much more. The open world aspect is an absolute masterpiece, the world in which you play in is neither too large nor too small, just perfect size and all of the activities you can get up to in free roam are things which no other open world game has included, like holding up a train by placing a stagecoach in front of it and then standing on top of it to wait for it to stop, a similar thing was included in a scene from the movie 'The Assassination of Jesse James'. Things like this just immerse you even more due to it being a wild west game. For once, even GTA V couldn't allow me to experience just admiring the view of the world which you are free to explore. Almost all open world game developers go on about how they can just 'admire the gorgeous view of the world' if you become bored, but in my opinion, that has never happened. Ironically, the only game that has come close to that is the first Red Dead Redemption. Obviously, I am not able to waffle on about all of the things you can do in this game but one last thing I wanted to discuss is the controversial topics which are openly (and without hesitance) included in the game. Topics like racism and sexism which were very prevalent in 1899 (the time which this game is set in) I am not going to spoil any of the story but there are some things which blown me away with amazement and shock. Instead, I will give you a few examples of which I found in free roam, I was browsing around a big city which you end up in around about halfway through the story and found a woman who was advocating for women's rights to vote (which was a big thing in this time era), another example I found which may be a little more offensive to some people, I was walking through the town of Rhodes (which is known for a higher populace of African Americans) in free roam when I saw these white men harassing this black guy (if I remember correctly they were robbing him at the back of the saloon.) and I actually heard one of the white men say "if you don't give up your things now darkie you're gonna receive a bullet in your skull." As i heard this i was blown away with immediate shock! I've only heard things like that (and very rarely) in movies! Cleary this is not something which I would personally hold up to a game developers neck and demand them to include something like this in their game, but it is just inexplicable how Rockstar have done something like this.

    I also hear people waffle on about the shooting and combat system, even though the combat can become a little frustrating at times due to the cover system being changed, I can tell you that the shooting is once again the best within any game. No longer am I just gliding through mission after mission, blasting everything i see with one bullet and killing everyone in 20 seconds. I now have to control the recoil of my weapon and where I am shooting, I now have to utilize my weapons correctly for the right situations as compared to something like GTA V where I could use the weakest pistol in the game and still glide right through everyone. This is the sort of realism which for some reason puts a lot of people off, but I am in love with it, when I kill someone in RDR 2 it actually feels like I have blasted a bullet right through someone's face (which I have), where many games cannot seem to do this. In RDR 2 a pistol FEELS like a pistol, a gun which doesn't do that much damage, and a shotgun FEELS like a shotgun where I can blow through someone's intestines.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 isn't a game that should be taken lightly. This is true in most of Rockstar's long list of games, which often overwhelm the player with their sheer size and mechanical depth. Red Dead Redemption 2, however, stands out as a pinnacle among masterpieces.

    Yes, it could be uncomfortable to control and take long time to get used to it. However, you also can experience a lot of things which other games can't provide. Absolutely for me, it is one of the best games. Just play at least 10 hours, then you get real experience in this game.

    When playing the game, time flies. That's what you what in a game, something you can fully immerse yourself in and Red Dead does it so much better than Rockstar's last game, Grand Theft Auto V. The interaction with the world is amazing. you can have conversations with every single NPC and even just a simple trip across the map can bring so much more as strangers ask for your help / interaction.

    At times, the story feels slow, but like me for some people that is a good thing. I have spent easily 50+ hours on this game and I'm still only 41% through as there is simply so much to do.

    Rockstar should be proud of yet another incredible game release and I look forward to seeing the online.

There is everything from hilarious drunken bar encounters to coming across a serial killers crime scenes. Theres also fun treasure hunts, fun hunting gameplay and a variety of different living animals throughout the world to interact with. Although the honor system doesn't quite have a huge effect on the gameplay, it definitely makes you think twice about your actions.

    The only thing I had trouble with in the beginning was the control layout. It's a bit different than other open world/other rockstar games to an extent, but it just takes some time to get used to. I had no complaints about the controls after a few hours of playing.

    The story is also top-notch and has a lot of emotional moments as well. I played the first red dead redemption years ago and don't quite remember everything that happened in the story but it definitely is a great prequel to that game. RDR2 is everything i've been wanting in a video game for a very long time. 10/10 masterpiece. Good Job Rockstar.

    Before I start my wording is going to be all over the place.
    Now lets get straight to the point. This is one of those wonders of a game that will stand the test of time. Pure gold. I have enjoyed many games in my life that have hooked me and been a great experience time after time and many of those being rockstar games. I don't love this game because it is rockstar I love this game because it is straight up the most detailed, well produced game I have ever played. Even when it come to the big giants like GTA V, Fallout 4 and any other massive open world game I have seen I have always been a notorious 'I can't be bothered for the missions' kind of player with a huge push needed to drive on through the game but even when I am hooked on exploring in RDR2 I always find my self drawn to the story and the side challenges also.

    I have never seen detail to such pin point precision. You can feel the emotions from the expressions and fresh, clean cut dialogue from every character and NPC, Every building is unique and doesn't have that re-used assets feel and the fact that every single person has something new to say blows me away to the amount of work rockstar put into this game.

    I see some of those raving on about complex mechanics or things not making sense but no one said the game was going to be easy. The law can seem biased at times but its engaging you get in a fight and flee, the law is rational to your offense so things like being wanted for a fight are easy to evade and I have seen first hand that the others involved are chased by the law too so don't feel bitter about it and yes if you kill someone and someone see's it, its hard to stop the law getting involved. What else would I expect?

    The shops, the stables, the map functions, the stats, the sheer level of immersion this game gives you is more than I could have ever expected. The fact that you can't take as much if you are hungry, tiered or wearing snow-clothes in the hot sun all make it feel more and more real by the second and if you don't believe how detailed this is make Arthur starve and not sleep and see the expression and posture he starts to show. It made me feel worn out just looking at him.

    There's so much in RDR2 I don't feel I could cover it all in a review.

    Its worth the money, Its the best game I've ever enjoyed from the start and anyone who is upset about it being more complex than red dead one may need to consider that red dead was stunning but limited by the 360's and the PS3s capabilities and now we can really feel what it was like for John and the Vanderlind gang like you where there. I can not fault rockstar one bit on this one.

    A massive moment in gaming history.

Тоже самое можно сказать и про гта (симулятор урона и езды на машинах (каких-то фантастических транспортах). Здесь же графика очень крутая и сюжет интересный. PC-ры долбоебы ( которые ставят 0 без обоснования).

It doesn't feel forced I can go at my own space and just get lost into all the activities they put into this game.

    I understand some of the criticism because sometimes (at the beginning) the game maybe bee a bit overwhelming and It will require you to but time and effort into it.

    Thank you to all the people who have worked on this amazing game.

    ps. the music score and the voice acting are also very good, Rockstar standard!! Outlaws 4 life.

And I don't know what kind of games the majority here plays, but I can't see why people dislike the gameplay. The combat feel exciting since you have to balance staying in cover with finding stuff and keeping friends alive, other objectives are varied and exciting without being too fast-paced. I love that the game encourages you to hang around at camp, hunting and exploring, but it doen't force you to do anything. You can just do whatever you want to at any time, which for me is the most important factor in making a game fun. Does a 10/10 game have to be perfect? Of course not, but the flaws cannot detract from how fun and impressive the game is. For me, the only "flaws" I can think of can either be changed in settings, or doesn't detract from the experience at all. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Red Dead Redemptiom Two is the most detailed, well-crafted and neat game I've ever seen in my entire life. The attention given to the minutiae details that any game would treat as unimportant, here are treated with the same importance of main mission. The characters are captivating, the story is engaging, the world is alive and detailed on an absurd level, all npcs have non-repetitive dialogues that enrich the experience in some way. The various mechanics of the game, do things that are usually considered as just aesthetic, now have a function, such as clothes for cold or heat, beard, hair, dirt on weapons, clothes or horse, all interfere with the gameplay. the game has a slower pace, and this is not a failure but a characteristic that we should adapt. The amount of things to do between missions, keeps us busy, which guarantees a long useful life to the game, activities like poker, dominoes, hunting, fishing, blackjack and the own exploration of the world that hides several easter eggs and fun secrets very. Play calmly, and taking advantage of every moment, if you try to play this game in a hurry, it will NOT WORK.

With a small communities like the Dutch's gang, everyone has to pitch in. You can do things like fishing, hunting, and donating to the camp. You can also participate in games like Five Finger Fillet and Dueling. The horses are very in-depth and are actually important, unlike it's predecessor. It's also missing it's predecessor's horrible game breaking bugs, such as punching a corner of a wall to fly to the skybox. Overall, the game provides a satisfying prequel to Red Dead Redemption.

    Hi everyone, I'm writing this review hence some pc butthurt people cannot stress the fact that it isn't on their master race piece of hardware or they cannot believe a game different from their usual fast pace Call of Duty **** is getting perfect reviews, let me establish once for all this thing, coming from a former internal reviewer at Ubisoft in Bucharest, the game is staggering, if notHi everyone, I'm writing this review hence some pc butthurt people cannot stress the fact that it isn't on their master race piece of hardware or they cannot believe a game different from their usual fast pace Call of Duty **** is getting perfect reviews, let me establish once for all this thing, coming from a former internal reviewer at Ubisoft in Bucharest, the game is staggering, if not 'perfect' nonetheless, let me explain.
    The game is slow and using this as an argument is pretty ignorant on your part, when this is the charm of it, the western times, historically speaking, were slow and tensed, such pace the teams in Kyiv, Montreal etc tried to replicate on Black Flag and I might say they HAD to get it wrong, just because it was 'boring', at the end we failed making a true pirate-ish experience, fearing it was 'too empty'; the fact that Rockstar went a step further and not just making it true to the times, but enforcing this type of gameplay, they had the result of a game that's amazingly immersive and if you disagree, then sorry, it's just not your cup of tea then, but remember, slow pace isn't a flaw, but rather a strong point, especially when in the same review you admit that it's beautiful as a game, so if you would just stop and look at things from time to time, it's a chill, immersive and tensed experience, trust me.
    Now you might be wondering, why I'm saying tensed, oh well, start the game and you'll see that the music, the landscape, the details like your gun being cocked or your gun just stop working, dropping your weapon to pickup a shotgun from your horse, the moment you'll be facing 8 goons at once and trying to intimidate them by shooting in the air, because you're on plain sight with no cover, a simple ambush in the swamp, or a heist of a train, you can see where I'm going, those moments get tensed, because you're so used with the calm pace of the game and immediately you're thrown in a life-death situation, where if you **** up, you're dead. And to be honest, the game isn't empty at all, but that's for you to decide, for me it wasn't up until this point and until now I analyzed just gameplay, I just got into the story and it fits perfectly to the overall idea and scenery of the game. It's a game where you're ACTUALLY LIVING THE WEST LIFE.
    Now let me tackle some arguments:
    1. 'I hate when my horse is too far away' - it's a gameplay mechanic, take care of your horse, and it won't be that much of a problem, it's basically to make it more realistic than the usual Metal Gear 'I'm calling the horse and it randomly spawns from the oblivion' thing.
    2. 'I hate it's not on the PC' - FINALLY I can talk about this, so, basically there are 2 ways of releasing something on consoles and pc, you either program 2 games, which takes longer to do and it takes the focus out from the production of the game OR you do one (either consoles or pc) and then port it to the other hardware, which, for me, it's a terrible idea cause always people will rant about differences and the immense number of bugs the ported one has, or should I recall Batman to prove my point? I respect Rockstar for choosing to focus on the game and then make a separate and working game on the PC, I think Rockstar either will respond to the requests and make a PC version, after they released the online version, or they will just leave it on the consoles, life is life, I owned a 360 and the last of us came out but I didn't make a fuss about it, even though I'm a PC guy, accept the fact that Rockstar intends to focus on the game, rather than selling.
    3. 'It's a chore' - It is for those that don't want to accept realism, this isn't again your average juggernaut suit killing every **** in my way kinda **** this is a lifestyle type of game, if you wanna destroy everything in your path, Rockstar got you covered with GTA, sooo cheers

    Cheers indeed, I wanted to add some more, but to be honest I just wanted to put my counter-argument on display, I'll keep the rest of my opinion to myself, even though the storyline was... astonishing, the reasoning for my vote is the story, attention to detail, the world, the theme and of course the beauty of it all... and also for the fact that I can play poker in-game, well done Rockstar.

    P.S. I'm Romanian, so any type of English brainfart moments, I'm sorry for em, I tried my best :3

So far I've experienced no crashes and only 3 or 4 major glitches in roughly 20 hours of play, the first few hours are quite slow but it picks up quickly after the first couple missions.

    Занижать игре оценку за то, что нет ПК-версии, озвучки или перевода на твой язык (например, на арабский) - это так же глупо, как говорить: "у меня в день покупки игры болела задница, поэтому игре я ставлю 0 баллов".

Монотонно и скучно играть? Слишком долго перезаряжается? Пустая карта? Имеете право так считать, но я с вами не согласен. Считаю. что RDR II прекрасно передаёт атмосферу неспешного аналогового мира, которой не было в RDR I, и которая, похоже, пришлась по душе не всем. Rockstar рискнули и решили в одиночной кампании сделать ставку на реализм, а для менее усидчивых игроков скоро будет Red Dead Online.

    Diminishing the game score for not having a PC version, voice acting or translating it into your language (for example, Arabic) is as stupid as saying: "I had an assache on the day I bought a game, so I put the game 0 points" . Monotonous and boring to play? Slow recharging and shooting? Empty Map? I'm respect your opinion, but I disagree with you on that. I think. that the RDR II contants the perfect vibe of the unhurried analog world, which was not in the RDR I, and which, it seems, was not liked by everyone. Rockstar took a chance and decided to bet on realism for a single-player campaign, and for more fidget players there will soon be Red Dead Online.

The detail is insane and shows how much passion the developers had for the game, most game developers are lazy and it shows, like BO4 with water in Blackout mode worse than Ocarina of time on N64, and does nothing when shot at.

    To address some silly/lying negative reviews:

    Games boring: The first chapter acts as a tutorial and introduces characters, after it's free roam. The games huge and full of quality content and missions, challenges, activities, easter eggs. It's not a childish game like Fortnite is COD BO4, it's like a slow boiling Hollywood movie with a brilliant storyline and much to absorb.

    Clunky: The controls are like other Rockstar games, if you can't grasp them you shouldn't be playing games as they're really not that hard and have a ton of configuring options. Free aim does need some configuration but otherwise it's all well thought out considering how many different actions there are to perform.

    You can kill animals it's evil: My favourite bad reviews are SJW people whinging because you can kill animals in it, what do you think people did in 1899, telegram just eat for desert grown potato salad? Or maybe go TK Maxx for a nike winter coat and cowboy hat. Vegetarian was what apache's called bad hunters, veganism didn't exist until 1944. Even aggressive comanche Indians had 1-2 horses per every man/woman and live stock of several million wilderbeast/horses. Without live stock these silly people's ancestors probably would've starved. I love animals more than people but SJW's need to stop whinging because game developers choose to base a game on realism and history.

    It doesn't work good on pc: Really? The game isnt out on pc, only consoles.

    4K/HDR isn't good: game HDR calibration to 500, TV brightness to 47, TV HDR dynamic contrast to high, TV blacks to low, TV colour temp 50. Result = sexy visuals. As standard HDR causes asharper cricket textured picture but a bit darker with washed out colours, it could've been better off the bat, maybe they'll patch it soon. But these settings on my LG TV created a lively vivid picture.

    Bounty system is broken: No, it's realistic, exit an area quick enough and no bounty. Commit crimes next to lawman and you'll be wanted with a bounty. Wear a mask after the crime and you'll be hidden but be threatened to remove it, and if doing so will be recognized. Locked down towns go back to normal with time and bounties lessen with time. Chance clothes, shave hair, grow a beard, you'll lose the bounty or won't be recognized as easily depending on severity of changes. If you can't handle evading some bounty hunters or lawman, which is what the game is about believe it or not, go join a gang of pansies, not outlaws.

    And that's about it, a truly impressive game that raises the bar for many lazy quick cash grab developers.

I expected GTA with cowboys and didn't expect to have to change my outlook or approach to playing this game. I would perhaps suggest tweaking the tedious activities like eating etc. a bit to lighten the burden or even suggest giving priority to certain safer actions in case of an ambiguous button press but then I'd be too constructive which wouldn't align with my culture of **** about everything. I could've given a provisional 9 until the little nags are fixed and the risk of of my controller hitting my flatscreen due to a few hiccups caused by ambitious design has been mitigated. This would however require me to be objective and wouldn't leave space for me sing the same old song about open world game mechanics being reused. Certainly those mechanics have always been fun and improved upon game after game, which is probably why so many people loved them. I however wanted something special, like the new ass perspective where I can see everything behind my character and use my intuition to sense the position of the enemies in front of me because first and third person is so yesterday. I also don't understand why there would be enemy camps etc. which all seems to mimic where enemies would've logically gathered in real life, instead of maybe having cowboy nests in oaktrees for example. I'd give the game an extra point for feeling the need to
    entertain political agendas seeing as I'm not trying to escape reality and the self-sabotaging unattractive demeanor of those who push them but I've deducted it for including pistols, carbines and tomahawks instead of snot bubble guns and light sabers which could very well have existed in 1899, these devs can be so unimaginative sometimes. Thank you Rockstar for 8 year's dedication just to disappoint my personal preferences, I'm sure you have no intention of ironing out any of the little bugs so scr*w you I'm going to play fortnite now.

The attention to detail in this game definitely shows that this game has been designed for years and years, and the story, while bleak, is very well written and casted. Arthur is probably one of the most likable characters that Rockstar has ever made, and the people around them feel like actual people. The features list goes on and on, and as a person who finished the story I can say it wasn't a waste of time. My only complaint is that the areas from RDR1 in the game feel rather empty, as in there are no real tasks to do there once you get there. There are easter eggs in the area however. Anyone giving this a 0 has either never played the game, is all pissy over it not being on PC yet, or has some vendetta against Rockstar. This game is a shoe-in for Game of the Year. Expand

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a modern video game masterpiece! it's everything I ever wanted for the sequel. It's an epic tale of the Van Der Linde gang with fantastic characters and many surprises along the way. The presentation is absolutely mind-blowing. I think I've never seen an open world game that looks so stunning. The world feels alive and is filled with tons of little details.Red Dead Redemption 2 is a modern video game masterpiece! it's everything I ever wanted for the sequel.

Rockstar showed once again why they are the king of the open world genre! There are dozens of things to see and do, naming them all would take a while! RDR 2 is a video game milestone and should be experienced first-hand. Expand

    Tão realista que, faz ser o jogo mais imersivel possível, RDR2 pode não um jogo para todos, mas o seu mundo, e a sua história, precisam ser explorados.

    A beautiful game in an immersive world. The story line is excellent and the characters up there with the best of video games. With the range of challenges, side missions and special characters I think there is something for everyone.

    RDR2 is an incredible experience. I use the word “experience” because those looking for just a *game* might be disappointed. No flashy icons, blinking numbers, enemies around every corner, your character being able to scale towers with a single press of a button. But if you want to be transported to a different time and place, immersed in a stunningly beautiful, atmospheric world thatRDR2 is an incredible experience.

No flashy icons, blinking numbers, enemies around every corner, your character being able to scale towers with a single press of a button. But if you want to be transported to a different time and place, immersed in a stunningly beautiful, atmospheric world that seems to live independently from you, and of course if you like the wild West and the “great outdoors”, then you will find RDR2 to be spot on, even more so than its already masterful predecessor. No matter what budget was behind this production, quality like this can only emerge as a labour of love. Thank you, Rockstar for being uncompromising in the pursuit of your vision. (And thank you for the soundtrack!) Expand

    Rockstar's best game as of yet.

    Best graphics on console. Best sound effects in a game I've experienced. Amazing story and characters. Great voice acting as always. I was happy to see that Steven Ogg voiced a character in the game, he's a great actor. I wish Landon Ricketts from RDR1 would've been in the game but sadly his voice actor passed away a few years ago. I really missed the

I wish Landon Ricketts from RDR1 would've been in the game but sadly his voice actor passed away a few years ago.

    I really missed the physics from GTA IV and RDR in GTA V, which was the biggest disappointment of GTA V in my opinion. But with RDR2, the great, realistic and amusing physics are back. The world is amazing, lots of animals, lots of collectibles to find, lots of characters to meet and lots of places to discover.

    When I'm riding around with my horse I stop pretty much every 30 seconds looking at the landscape, studying and hunting animals, exploring buildings, interacting with NPCs etc.

    The controls on the other hand are not the best, but I'm not sure if that's Rockstar's fault. To me it seems the controller doesn't have enough buttons, R2 is both aiming and interacting with an NPC, and R1 is both swapping between stuff to interact with or taking cover, which can be annoying at times. It would've worked great on a keyboard obviously. I hope the PS5's controller will get an upgrade in terms of buttons. Movement is a bit clunky but that didn't bother me too much, I get used to it pretty fast.

    Rockstar's RDR2 lived up to my expectations and brought even more. I really enjoyed the game. I started my second playthrough today and I'm going for 100% completion. It will take a while because there's so much to do, which is great. And it's not filled with annoying stuff like there is in other games.

    Best game of the decade in my opinion. I hope the online part will be amazing as well.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most unique and diverse game I have every had the oppurtunity to play.

From its main story/side missions, graphics, voice acting, and currently the most realistic environment, it stands amongst any action rpg game of its kind. The option from choosing between first person and third person view adds great element to the quality of gaming and also strategic advantages from switching between the two while playing. Any casual or hardcore gamer will appreciate the design and creativity of being a rebel cowboy during the end of the old west and seeing your character develop and building relationships with his gang as you progress through the whole game. The freedom of decisions and moving away from the main story is the most intriguing element of the title. Having the oppurtunity to roam, rob, hunt, playing poker etc allows any gamer to have endless hours of gameplay while not worrying about completing the story in order to receive that satisfaction of accomplishment. The game does allow new users to be introduce into the red dead redemption world without feeling empty or confused if you did not have the oppurtunity to play the first title. This allows new gamers unfamilar with the franchise to start the game play as if he or she needs to purchase the first title to feel complete while playing the game. One of the best games ever to be created. In the future it will be related to the legends of video games that will be in the discussion of best ever or best of its time. Expand

    Red dead redemption 2 is probably the best game i have played. It's story is fantastic and has a lot of things to do on the side when you arent doing the missions. You can hunt, fish or rob something. Its amazing. I am 16 hours in and it still blows me away at the detail and work that goes into this game. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Take note: EA, Ubisoft and more, this is how you make a game.

    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]
