    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Best game ever made. Rockstar has focused much more on the depth of its world than the narrative and this calls for some amazing fun to be had. I kind of hated the honour system in that I wanted the good ending but I also wanted to do some of the fun stuff within the open world. Which is sad because it hugely limits what the player can do in its world. Other than that there’s a really fun game here with a developing online mode and horse balls. Expand

    This is a really hard game to rate - as it's a love-hate thing for me. The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison. So much care and love has gone into it - and it has pushed my poor PS4 to its limits. There are so many amazing experiences in the game. So many hours of fun and exploration. However, there's also a lot of banal time-wasting in a sea of nothingness. The real problemThis is a really hard game to rate - as it's a love-hate thing for me. The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison. So much care and love has gone into it - and it has pushed my poor PS4 to its limits. There are so many amazing experiences in the game. So many hours of fun and exploration. However, there's also a lot of banal time-wasting in a sea of nothingness. The real problem with the game is as a sandpit experience it's brilliant. You could live this life and never feel discontent. However, the game forces you (literally) to take an extremely linear 'scripted' approach to playing that it becomes a war of wills - if you submit to the 'my way or the highway' approach, then you will enjoy... otherwise you will never get to enjoy what this game offers. For a vast open world game - the 1P experience downright punishes you for being bold. As a result it is programmed for the weakest players to complete - which means you feel like you're playing a TT game more than an open world game. What I found particularly egregious was that you would start an innocuous sounding mission only to find that you are now embarked on a 4 mission marathon... without any opportunity to save or take a pause. Great if you're the only one using the PS4, but like most people you need to share, which doesn't work well when you can't save progress or pause between missions. I undestand the narrative pace part... but please... we live in the real world. The other thing that was annoying about this game was that there's never any real increase in difficulty - it's only more and more enemy. To the point where I seriously doubt anyone could keep track of the number of people that Arthur guns down... which is at complete odds with the whole redemption arc that is forced upon the character. So there's a lot I didn't like (in fact hated) about this game... however, I WAS one of those that was prepared to just invest my time in the 'experience' and go along for the ride. Oh - but if you've not played it... the one advice I would give is that don't worry about money - or how to spend it. This is perhaps the most badly designed part of the game as it completely undermines the entire premise of the story. Stoopid. Just completely stoopid. As a I right this - I wonder why I gave it a 9... but it's for all those moments of joy... and just cringe-worthy fantasy-living experiences.

    Edit - on reflection, I actually think the limitations and constraints imposed on the 1P game really detract from the experience - in an otherwise brilliant game: dropped from 9/10 to 8/10

    Red Dead Redemption 2 é sem dúvidas o jogo mais bem feito, tecnicamente falando; o nível de detalhes chega a assustar.

No entanto, não deixa de ser uma recomendação obrigatório, ainda mais quem curte o estilo de gameplay da Rockstar. Expand

    Wonderfull story
    With an good open world and interesting characters.
    But Rockstar mission design and lack of free will stops the game from being a masterpiece.

    Beatiful game, works perfectly, unbelivable how much there is to do, but... It´s almost all bad. I became a bad dude and that just ain´t me. I can se the appeal thou, but just more I play it I just become miserable about the choises I have to make and things I see. Not all the time. I hoped that you could really have the option to be good cowboy this time .

    The game itself, the graphics, the music, the story are great, but there are a lot of downsides:
    1) The main quest, even without side-quests is too long.
    2) Crafting, hunting and gathering mechanics are useless. You have no need to cook or buy food or ammo – you always have enough of them. 3) The gameplay is repetitive in a bad way – you ride a horse and shoot 4) Excessive realism –

    I have played this game for about 100 hours now. It has its bugs, crashes regularly and many game mechanics like the AI, auto saving or the bounty system just do not work properly because they have not been polished or thought through.

The whole experience feels rushed and unfinished. Many games have similar mechanics and got it right; having played The Witcher 3, this open world is a huge mess. Everything is linear, repetitive and you get punished for taking creative / different approaches like sneaking through windows or flanking the enemy. The game just has not planned for players doing this and spawns confused enemies right in front of you or lets you fail the mission instantly. Decisions you make do not matter much; all the important choices are usually made for you. Also, all you seem to do in missions is shooting loads of people. There is no change in pace or any variety to be found. I now dread yellow symbols on the map, because I am so tired of doing the same thing all over again. Cover, Deadeye, shoot, cover. It is not even challenging. if you enter an area you are not supposed to be in, you just die which is very inelegant. The saving grace are story (especially the actors), ambiance and graphics. I feel like this game would have needed a lot more testing and thought before being released. A lot of potential wasted. Expand

С сюжетой составляющей все прекрасно, а RDO все таки не очень затягивающим оказался, хоть и выходят обновления контента.Первая игра, на прохождение которой ушло около 3 месяцев, однако доставила огромное количество позитивных эмоций и восхищений проработанностью мира игры.

    I play games for 25 years now and I must say this game took it again to another level. The graphics are insane (and I don’t even have a ps4 Pro with 4K) and the game has so many details. At first you’re a bit overwhelmed, but you’ll get used to controls and options real quick. Only thing is the story; it’s a little bit depressing and takes too long to end it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Очень интересная игра. Некоторые говорят что эти вечные скачки утомляют. Мне наоборот они нравятся. Сужет классный и крутой. На финале я не выдержал и заплакал. Очень жалко было наблюдать за смертю Артура. А ещо Датч и этот чортов Мики оказались предателями.Игра очень сильно затягивает. Вам попадаются случайные люди которым желательно помочь, в будущем вам это возноградиться. Лучше всего иметь вышую честь, тогда финал будет самым лучшим. В общем игру я рекомендую вам всем.Для меня это лучшая игра которая была создана человечеством. Игра 10/10! Expand

    Um jogo sensacional, que te entretém, uma movimentação do personagem pesada, nada que você não se acostume com o tempo, uma história sensacional, o personagem principal, Arthur Morgan, é um dos melhores já criados pela Rockstar.

    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.
