    Sin lugar a dudas el mejor juego de la generación, una gran obra de arte de Rockstars, el juego te engancha desde el inicio con su narrativa y jugabilidad, gran variedad de misiones, muy buena historia, variedad de armas y situaciones, un imprescindible si no lo has jugado.

    It managed to be the first game that made me cry. This is the best until Rockstar does it better.
    May I still unshaken? Amid, amidst the crashing world.

    One of the BEST games of the decade!!!! Cool story, great characters, Arthur Morgan is great. You wanted realism, here you have realism аnd when there is realism, then you have too much of it.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a masterful and a beautiful game, with an amazing story and engaging gameplay.

The combat is simple but it’s also very complex with the variety of weapons you can use, plus the amount of in game missions are incredible, getting to them might be boring but it doesn’t matter because it’s worth it at the end, the missions are all fun and they are pretty good some better than others. And of course the story is beyond amazing, it’s all about the characters and how they evolve throughout the story, and it’s done perfectly well! Supporting all that also is the perfect soundtrack, with so much battle and relaxing tunes that are so well made. Plus the game has an alright online mode, it’s mainly a bonus to an already amazing game. Red Dead Redemption 2 is beyond amazing, it’s gameplay and story both support each other in this endless joyful game, everything feels fresh never gets old with the variety which is very impressive for an open world game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While it certainly has its issues, Red Dead Redemption 2 is, quite simply put, one of the most astounding games I've ever played. Speaking as someone who'd never played a Rockstar game before (yes, really), I thought it impossible for them to live up to their reputation as a developer. I've rarely been so happy to be proven wrong.

    Let's get the negatives out of the way first, as there's not many of them and they're completely, utterly, stupidly outweighed by the game's positives. The controls and shooting mechanics are a bit clunky, but are nowhere near poor enough to damage the experience, and aren't really any worse than other critically acclaimed games like The Witcher 3 and Shadow of the Colossus. The story is padded, but when the padding is this well written, acted and conceptualised, and actually serves a narrative purpose to boot, it doesn't matter in the slightest. The survival mechanics are perhaps unnecessary, but they are little effort to perform, and are actually quite immersive in my opinion. The only real criticism I have of the game is that [SPOILERS] the Micah twist feels like a missed opportunity, as it would make more sense if he had been a rat from the moment he joined the gang, rather than after returning from Guarma. That's an extremely minor complaint in the grand scheme of things, however.

    The game's positives are too many to list, so I'll try to be as concise as possible. The story is superlatively written and acted by all involved, no matter the size of the part. Arthur Morgan has become one of my favourite fictional characters in any medium, and his arc and ultimate demise is heartbreaking in the best way possible. The game is one of the most breathtaking I've ever seen, with a ridiculous amount of detail and realism packed into every fibre of its visuals. The guns look, sound, and feel amazing to shoot, allowing you to live out your Wild West fantasies in the most explosively entertaining way possible. The numerous side activities are all great fun, but the unquestioned highlights are the stranger missions, which include some the game's best characters, and run the gamut of emotions from hilarious, to horrifying, to heartbreaking. The soundtrack, while perhaps not particularly memorable, does perfectly encapsulate the atmosphere of the final American frontier, and Rockstar's use of licensed music is spot on.

    All in all, this is one of the generation's very best games, and one I'll be thinking about long into the future. Enormous thanks to Rockstar for the surely backbreaking amount of effort this must have required. It was, unquestionably, all worth it. Yee-haw!

    As pessoas que dizem que este jogo é ruim ou mediano, devem ter um gosto muito peculiar para jogos... Gostaria de saber quais jogos elas gostam rsrs enfim, minha nota é 10, pois é MUITO bom, mas de fato, vejo pontos a melhorar.

    Pros: historia envolvente, personagens carismaticos, bem original. Gameplay muito bom, personalização, mapa enorme a fotografica que, talvez, seja um das mais
    As pessoas que dizem que este jogo é ruim ou mediano, devem ter um gosto muito peculiar para jogos... Gostaria de saber quais jogos elas gostam rsrs enfim, minha nota é 10, pois é MUITO bom, mas de fato, vejo pontos a melhorar.

    Pros:
    historia envolvente, personagens carismaticos, bem original. Gameplay muito bom, personalização, mapa enorme a fotografica que, talvez, seja um das mais bonitas que ja vi em games. Faz uma intro e conexão muito show com o primeiro game(que no caso vem depois). Jogo enorme!

    Contras:
    achei muitas funcionalidades inuteis... As barras de sangue me confundiram, a forma de cozinhar/criar ficou muito chata, não consegui e nem precisei criar praticamente nada no jogo e foi bem facil de zerar... Não fizerma falta. Muito irritante as vezes você ter que ir de um ponto a outro no mapa. As viagens rapida de trem e carroça são muito asfatadas. O cavalo demora muito a chegar a até voce quando é chamado e outras coisas.

    Não reduzi a nota do game, pq tudo isso foi para tornar o game realista. Eu daria 11 para este game se não tivesse os desfechos costumeiros da Rockstar... Mas ele não deixa de ser 10!

Çok iyi oyun sadece sonda Arthurun ölmesi çok üzdü onun dışında harika bir oyun yavaş yavaş anlaya anlaya oynayınca mesela ben ilk defa başlayınca 20% e hızlı hızlı geldim hiçbirşey anlamadan sonra internette biraz araştırdım İngilis dili iyi bilmememe rağmen yeniden başlayıp heryeri araştırıp çok iyi bitirdim.Yeniden başlamk için oyunu biraz unutmayı bekliyorum 1 hafta sonra tekrar bu muhteşem oyunu oynayacağım.

His ride to redemption, tied in with John's death in RDR1, seems so futile in their time yet both are so heart-warming and inspiring. Expand

    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]
