    RDR2 leaves gamer bored after few hours. Story and its characters lack the interesting profile the prequal had. Game is pretty and map is big but the almost empty wasteland is just way too uninteresting to be explored. There are few laughs here and there but most of these are just meme worthy jokes.

    This is an art of game.
    But not just a very fun game.
    And little boring....

    This is a true masterpiece. Don't be fooled by the red reviews, these are just unhappy PC players who are only hating and not reviewing.

    Superb open world with so many intricate detail and excellent story telling campaign.
    A must play for any true gamer (just like Witcher 3).

    Looks great, characters are interesting, but the gameplay... I played the first one, but had to quit rdr2 after 8 hours cause it felt like it was just wasting my time. I think I'll replay the first one.

    The most boring experience I've had in gaming since forever.. 10hours in and this game offers nothing outside of horse riding and fetch quests. Gunplay is just a GTA copy/paste and as for the characters, I bet that if I close my eyes I'd have a hard time finding who is who because they all sound the same.

    Just like most open world games, the novelty wears off and the world feels dead. It has nice gunplay but it gets repetitive fast and its story is its only saving grace.

    I don't know but something is off in this game, game play is meh, the graphic are great, but not that great. Story is so so.... IT IS NOT THE BEST GAME EVER...FOR sure. It remember me Mass Effect Andromeda so yeah I'm comparing this game to Mass Effect Andromeda.

    Can't even begin to explain how disappointed i am, i almost dare to say it's the most boring game ever made in my 30 years of gaming, ok the scenery is nice, like most recent next Gen games nothing more nothing less, but the faces of the characters are so last Gen it hurts my eyes lol..

Looting a corpse takes 3-4 seconds wtf and looting in general is so much pain in the *ss as u barely notice where to loot I'm the first place, all the actions u have to long press to waste some more time I'm not surprised this is a 70 hour game lol..
    To end my disappointment auto aim shooting, fishing and hunting all at a senior pace I rather play Tetris, I hope the online gets better or i wasted some more money to loadstar, no slowstar :) slow ass redemption 2 big no for me :(    … Expand

    Grand Theft Auto V DLC mixed in with Assassins Creed 3. That's what i've gotten from this after 10 hours of play. Won't bother finishing it as i'm bored now. Too grindy and not much going on other than the usual stuff that we've already played in a Rockstar game a million times over already. Runs poorly with bad frame rate dips and clunky controls. Just watch someone stream it.

    Extremely slow, with tons of unnecessary additions that only worsen the game.

    Game graphics seems a bit blurry on PS4 Pro and it doesn't run as well as what i was seeing in the videos they showed leading up to the release.

    Overhyped by the gaming media. Not to be trusted. Paid reviews. The game is more or less another generic open world.

    The amount of so called “details” or “animations” are the result of overworking their employees to death. If they are going to do that anyways at least design a better inventory system and open world instead of focusing on minute details that don’t really add anything to    Overhyped by the gaming media.

    Vejo que não evoluiu como devia, além de ter várias partes repetitivas e cansativas, não se mostra superior a GTA 5 e não entendo porque existir um jogo assim tão ''Chato''.

    Honestly, really disappointed with this, it seems like GTA V was Rockstars last hurrah. This game doesnt improve on GTA V, not even graphically.

    I might change my outlook later but I went in expecting it to be on Nintendo’s level of quality but it wasn’t. I just stopped playing after getting it at midnight so it’s good for a long play as I’m not finished but so far it’s very repetitive and very slow. I don’t recommend it until a price drop later on.

    Bored ananistic gameplay.
    I do not like westerns. Infinite sandbox, no active gameplay.

    This game is bland, generic and offers nothing new to the genre. It had the potential to be a great game, but ended up with as much substance as a coleslaw.

    It crashed multiple times on PS4 Pro even after downloading 3 patches. As for the game itself it is very boring and clunky. The character movement is not natural at all. Regarding the story mode it looks like it was a rushed release like God o War: out of place cutscenes and out of place missions

    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.

    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.

    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.
