    After playing uncharted 4 I never thought I will play a better game, but 1 week into red dead redemption 2 and I didn’t even finish it yet.......I simply realised this is the best game I ever played in my life, still excited to see the ending of the story!

    Game has an amazing story but the online portion of the game is not. A lot of my friends were disappointed with this purchase.

    The shooting gameplay of this game is the most realistic and the best i ever played and experience to date. Its really addictive and you know from how it feels that this game was meticulously crafted. The game's technical detail is astonishing. And the story and narrative is one of if not the best ever made. This is how you make an open world game from main line to side story standpoint. All of its main and side stories never felt pushed or stretched. everything felt natural and all of the things I've mentioned so far are just icing in the cake. This game is intended to be a cowboy version of gran theft auto and they did an amazing job. I never thought they can make a game where it felt perfect. its a MASTERPIECE!

    It's definitely the one game I can say is worth the time invested. The characters are great, the story enthralling, the visuals about as good I've ever seen. There a huge accomplishment with the environments, NPCs, fauna, terrain. The controls are sometimes clunky, and sometimes you'll start a fight without knowing how, but beyond that it has been one of the best games I've played to date.

    Would have been a 10 if it hadn't been for the online mode, which might be the reason why we won't get singleplayer DLC in the future.

    The best game ever I experienced. May be some people get bored at the very beginning. Those who already felt the atmosphere and situation what the characters faced will surely enjoy and get memorable experience. For me, it is the most memorable game and well made.

    Very realistic but the movement isn't fantastic and it's very slow. It's a good game but definitely not close to a 97.

    At the start of the game you start with no ideo were you are or who thise people are it feels like youre captured in a snowstorm and you can not move but you can actually go everywhere you want that is amazing. I here a lot if people say the snow area CHAPTER I ist slow and dumb, but wait a minute slow? It has just i think 6 missions its one when not the tiniest chapter so why slow becauseAt the start of the game you start with no ideo were you are or who thise people are it feels like youre captured in a snowstorm and you can not move but you can actually go everywhere you want that is amazing. I here a lot if people say the snow area CHAPTER I ist slow and dumb, but wait a minute slow? It has just i think 6 missions its one when not the tiniest chapter so why slow because there is story or you riding all the time and you want action? Man, i dont know what to say but:
    First mission you find Micah a guy that Dutch the ganleader of the Vanderlin gang ge said he found an house you go up there and in the first mission is very nice action a shootout and at the end an fistfight and you have the choice of mercy or revenge and the other mussions are cool too you hunt and then find a fricking Bear! I tried to killed him in my first playtrough but...
    I DIED in the second playthrough the same death but with my now third playthrough i beated the bear and he ran away i dont now if you can kill him but i was happy to beat him!
    Every chapter is cool just 2 chapters i dont like
    CAHPTER III
    This chapter isnt so bad just its this f*cking Romeo and Julia S*it honestly wtf its so boring and these charachters but the rest of this chapter is at its best!
    CHAPTER V Its guarma its boring and just small it doesnt make any sense and well ther are nice missions but wow its just an chapter that shouldnt be included it could be in chapter 4 but no..
    The Prologue:
    Its nice that you still have story after Arthurs Death with John i never play Red Dead 1 but the prologue lets me wanna buy a Playstation 3 and play the heck outta this Game!

    Story
    4/4 -its the best story and made me cry


    Now we move too the world and mechanics Red dead’s 2 world is gigantic i thought i am going to be lost but no i found myself perfectly around and now almost all the names my favourite is Valentine it has a barber two sallons a gunsmith and many funny charachters like Mickey or the two brothers that want the girl. My least favourite is Annesburg its just boring nothing is there! Mechanichs are cool everything is easy to control the dead eye was cool and i couldnt play without it i understanded its just by the second playtrough but that was my fault and i shot sometime someone by accidnet but everonde did that sometime and falling with the horse is frustrating but realistic and i now its my fault. The horse mechanics are at its finest ist so nice to stay on an horse and its so realistic then when i play other games like assasins creed origins the horse is S*IT and the fist fighting is awesome!

    Mechanics and Map
    3,75/4

    -Mechanics are very good but the Map on the right upper side its just boring an dull

    Grapics oh boy my god R E A L I S T I C the best graphics i ever seen what so realistiv so nice and smooth i just experienced 2 bugs where i coulndt move in the swam area with the crocodile so i lost almost 2 hours progress but when you go in your mission book you can restart the mission and the other bug something with the camera yesterday

    Graphics Realism
    2/2

    Full Review People say its boring youre just on your horse all the time and talk and s*it but no what you gave herw is a **** MASTERPIECE 9,75/10

    Одна из самых лучших игр когда либо созданных человечеством. Red Dead Redamption 2 хороша во всём. Многие считают её главным недостатком затянутость сюжета и медлительность игрового процесса в целом, но лично я думаю, что за счёт досконально проработанного, живого мира достигнут баланс интересности и атмосферности игры.Одна из самых лучших игр когда либо созданных человечеством.

    This game stands along with the witcher 3 as the greatest game of all time! Rockstar managed to create HUMANS instead of videogame characters, losing them feels like losing someone you close dear

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have enjoyed what I have played of Red Dead Redemption 2. Finding John Marsden during the snow chapter was a fantastic surprise. I have begun to become bored with the repeating nature of the main story events. How many times must Dutch's plans come to nought or you need to kill 20 or more people to get past a certain point. Some of the best sequences were the early ones where you stop the train or where you arrest the leader of the local gang Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. How can I start, this game. god, this game, a masterpiece in every single level. THE OPEN WORLD
    By far I haven’t seen an open world soo detailed, soo full, and soo beautiful as this one. Most games like this have large maps, like AC odyssey for example, but they’re just soo dull and empty. And rdr’s open world is just soo full. every single random encounter has a story behind them, and there’s a total of 63... and there’s soo many interesting inspectable locations that you can discover. You can find faces carved on trees, a vampire. A war ground, a mysterious tiny church, and a METEORITE and soo much more. There’s about 51 of them, each different and tell a story in their own ways. And this open world is just soo diverse, you have deserts... grasslands, forests, swamps, and snowy mountains... like really, every place feels different. CUSTOMIZATION You can customize every single part of your beard, whether it’s the moustache, the sides, or the chin. And you have the hair, soo many different styles and lengths. And the clothes in this game are great, I only wish you can open vests and add more coats, black coats And just more clothes overall. STORY
    The story of this game is great, truly extraordinary. It sounds mediocre when you sum it up, but it’s really not. Everyone complaining about the SloW PaCe should honestly go **** themselves, rdr2 takes its time to build its character, Arthur morgan specifically. Who’ll I’ll get into on his own. The story is perfectly paced, and it perfectly flows... every single chapter makes you feel different things. Chapter 1 makes you feel new and confused. Chapter 2 makes you feel happy and excited, chapter 3 begins to make you feel the outlaw life chapter 4 makes you feel lost. Chapter 5 makes you feel destroyed, and chapter 6 makes you feel, depressed, and dead. This is what art does people, it makes you FEEL

    GAMEPLAY
    A lot of people complain about the gameplay, which makes me sad. It’s not terrible, It’s immersive, your hat can fall off, you have to cook your own food, You can take a bath to look clean and smell good, you can have realistically simulated scenarios. Yeah sure it can get clunky, only if you run around in tight spaces. take the game slow, walk around. ARTHUR MORGAN He is THE best protagonist in any game, and dare I say is one of the best fictional characters ever written. his actions and inactions throughout the game influences his choices and morality in the end of the game. Seeing Arthur slowly die of showed us a weaker side to the character, but that side is what makes ANY protagonist great. His diagnosis scene shows a clear sense of vulnerability. The tuberculosis is what kick started his change morally, although he still would’ve tried to save John and the rest of the good guys, the illness is what influenced him to dedicate all the time he has left into what he is trying to achieve, Arthur sees himself in John, he sees what he could’ve achieved, an opportunity to find love and live peacefully. And that’s why he wanted to help John, but John isn’t the only person. Misses downes, the wife of the man that gave Arthur TB and the man that Arthur beat up, he beat up a sick dying man. A man that has only done good in this world. He decides near the end to help her, and what I love about his story is the symbolism, the man who picks up Arthur and sends him to the hospital when he blacked out looks a lot like Thomas downes, this symbolizes how Thomas, in a way helped Arthur get his redemption, by giving him The illness that influenced his change in Morally

    EDIT: I decided to continue this review, seeing how the reviews that are lower than 6 piss me off because of how wrong they are. Everyone who complains about this game either doesn’t understand the mechanics or just sucks at it. This game is meant to be taken slow, I remember going back to camp at 11 Pm seeing the gang members sleep and I too til morning... and seeing them wake up And I having to go grab a cup of coffee and sit by the campfire with Javier, and coming back at night to see Pearson, or Javier, or Hosea or anyone telling a story about their past. Is just soo immersive. Yes the game has flaws, but does it? Gunplay is okay if you tweak it in the settings... is it amazing? No. Is it terrible? Definitely NOT. it’s fine. The only flaw this game has (for me) is that it could be much better. I don’t know if rockstar just didn’t think of it or didn’t have enough time but I could think about 40 ideas to improve the game’s mechanics and elements, which are already good The only have nitpicks that could get irritating once in a while. for example, the weight system. I hate how quickly you could become skinny or fat in the game. It can get annoying to maintain “average” weight let alone “perfect” another is how john’s hair in the epilogue is Arthur’s hair dyed black. Which is pretty stupid.

    Одна из лучших игр когда-либо.
    Вы знаете, если игра доходит до деталей, чтобы заставить вас варить кофе через костер, прежде чем пить его, или получать оружие из ранца лошади, или буквально наблюдать, как его яички сжимаются в холодную погоду, что это игра десятилетнего материала.

    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]
