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

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

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

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

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

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

    Missions are very restrictive but Rockstar has achieved a level of animation and world building that is unprecedented. If only we could approach missions as we desired.

    Well, I used to love the first RDR. But I played RDR2 after I finished the God of War masterpiece. And I feel quite disappointed. It’s clumpsy, boring and lacks of tension, I can’t understand this high ratings for this game. If you compare it to god of war or ghost of tsushima, it’s boring as hell.

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

    Was never a big fan of story-driven games, I was a guy who's in for instant gratification mostly and no emotion attached afterwards. RDR2 has changed me completely as a gamer, as a person, one who appreciates art, an "Aesthetes". I think it would be unfair if you don't treat video games as some form of art, modern art, given the work people put in this game, how massive it is, howWas never a big fan of story-driven games, I was a guy who's in for instant gratification mostly and no emotion attached afterwards.

I think it would be unfair if you don't treat video games as some form of art, modern art, given the work people put in this game, how massive it is, how thought-out the story is, the lighting, color, shades, music, voice over, character development,...etc. Honestly I can talk about this game all day. I was so caught up in it that even 50 hours in I still felt like I couldn't get enough of it. Would I recommend it? 100%, I would give anything just to play this game again, just to be able to feel the game from the very beginning. Expand

    Realizm, grafika, historia, fizyka, zdarzenia losowe. Ten świat chce się zwiedzać, czuć że świat żyje. Gra jest też dość długa, a mimo to za krótka, bo takie gry chciałoby się grać bez końca :)

    Игра очень интересная, и крутая. Здесь есть буквально все, начиная от охотой за головами заканчивая ограблением крупных банков. Плюсов очень много: большой мир, отличная стрельба, реалистичная охота, интересный сюжет, и многое другое. Также игра очень красиво детализированна, и интересна.

    The level of detail in this game is incredible, the visuals are stunning and the writing is on par with a Hollywood movie. The whole experience as playing Arthur Morgan an extremely likeable outlaw, is a journey that kept me engaged from start to finish. This game is far from perfect however, the controls are not smooth and the missions are very much rinse and repeat. Rockstar want you toThe level of detail in this game is incredible, the visuals are stunning and the writing is on par with a Hollywood movie. The whole experience as playing Arthur Morgan an extremely likeable outlaw, is a journey that kept me engaged from start to finish. This game is far from perfect however, the controls are not smooth and the missions are very much rinse and repeat. Rockstar want you to follow their missions to the exact path and not veer away to how you would want to, which really seems counterintuitive for an open world game.

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

    A flawed masterpiece.

    Without a doubt, my best purchase ever. I remember that I was wondering whether to buy this game or not, but I can say (once the campaign over) that this game really worths it.

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

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

    If you are bored, play this masterpiece.

    Thank you Rockstar, Red Dead Redemption 2 will never be forgotten.

    Bu oyunu çok seviyorum. Oynanışı yavaş lineer filan belki ama açık dünyasıyla verdiği özgürlük hissi bunu dengeliyor. Oyundaki detay seviyesi inanılmaz. Arthur Morgan ise yazılmış en dolu karakterlerden biri.

    Excelente juego, personajes que interactuan contigo como si fueran personas reales, historia que te hace sentir un millón de emociones diferentes, mapa detallado a niveles impresionantes, soundtrack como ningún otro que hace que te metas en el mundo en el que estás jugando, con eso, para mi es el mejor juego que probé.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    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.
