    most unparalleled. The story is predictable and feels a bit forced - some turn of events simply doesn't make sense and the characters turn either dumb or genius according to what's convenient in furthering the storyline - and it's also quite quite static.

    Red dead Redemption 2 has a great communication with the player into your art direction incredible in your powerful gameplay. Your story is easy to understand, with no great difficulty. Felt in a GTA "sophisticated". A show of charts, becoming thus the best game of the year in my opinion.

Но прежде чем я начну ВНИМАНИЕ ДАННЫЙ ОБЗОР НЕ СОДЕРЖИТ СПОЙЛЕРОВ! Я начну все по порядку, от начала до конца. Я покупал диск через многим известный интернет сайт "eBay". Живу я за границей РФ и думал что игра будет на полностью на Английском языке (Субтитры и интерфейс), но оказалось что игра использует язык системы PS4 а не язык диска, то-есть я играл на русском. Если вы живете за границей РФ то можете покупать Red Dead Redemption 2 и играть с Русскими субтитрами. После запуска игры я в нее быстро освоился и уже начал понимать что к чему (кто главный персонаж и чем он занимается). Затем я играл не спеша, все рассматривали и частенько ходил с лошадью, кстати лошади в игре очень хорошо сделаны и проработанные (прямо как живые). И что меня приятно удивило это детали в игре, я еще НЕ В ОДНОЙ игре не видел чтобы разработчики как скрупулёзно относились к деталям игры! Дальше 3 глава я начал находить баги в игре, недоработки и гличи к слову их тут очень много. Затем 4 глава и вот именно на 4 главе мое отношение к игре просто перевернулось. Я уже почти прошел 4 главу и думаю "ладно завтра проснусь и пройду главу". Просыпаюсь я и осознаю что мое сохранение ПОВРЕДИЛОСЬ!!!!! я такой не понял, перезапустил PS4, все ровно поврежден! Как я узнал? Я загружался 10 минут и нечего не происходило! Зашел в интернет и почитал форумы что не только у меня на 4 главе такое происходит. Нашел решение но для него надо-было иметь ручное сохранение что конечно у меня не было. Вообщем расстроился я но не стал забивать а начал опять проходить только быстрым темпом хочу сказать что "спидранить" эту игру эта одна боль. Все действия за заскриптованные и иза этого возникали гличи и баги. Вообщем после того как в поте лица прошел ее можно сказать заново. И после прохождение до момента где я был я перестал ее "спидранить". Ну и дальше прошел так до 6 главы затем эпилог. И знаете игра заставляет задуматься (не буду говорить о чем иначе спойлеры). Вообщем в заключение хочу скачать что игра 10/10 да баги, да гличи и всякая такая ерунда но, эта игра поистине "творческое искусство". Если у вы можете купить Red Dead Redemption 2 до смела покупайте только сохраняйте в ручную ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО!!! Expand

    Hello, Cowboys and Cowgirls! I've played this game since December 2018, and I've gotta to say that this is one of the most phenomenal games I've played!

    The story has far the best thing I've experienced that I enjoyed spending time with my gang! The character development: Arthur Morgan is growing on me that he has become one of my favorite protagonists in Rockstar games. It's crazy how long I'd played my first Red Dead Redemption as John Marston, but Arthur is better than John actually. Sorry, John.

    However, the map is pretty cool and interesting at the same time. There are also fun easter eggs and crazy funny bastards! The horse is pretty chunky and hard to control, but the relationship with the horse is about friendship and teamwork, but sometimes, I hate when my horse ran away from me because of the gunshots and snake-bite. It's disrespectful and annoying, but you get the hang of it. I like the weapons that it's fun to use it while fighting outlaws and lawmen. It's nice that I cleaned my weapons and relaxing like a true cowboy in the old west.

    Multiplayer, on the other hand, is not impressed and boring. I mean you don't get anything to do with this online because of shooting, riding around, deathmatch, and stranger's stories that will boost to high honor or low honor. I know it's a beta, but I hope this multiplayer will do something big instead of beta. Overall, a fantastic game and I've really enjoyed it! Rockstar strikes again!

    Beautiful game with a great story. Controls can be a bit clunky but never hindered my experience with the game. All the little details in this game really add up in making it one of the most immersive games ever made. I would also like to point out that the base story is worth $60 alone but the fact they are still bringing us multiplayer is such a huge bonus.

    This game is as close to next gen gaming as you can get. Easily the best open world game since the witcher 3. If you enjoy western history or movies you will love this game. The beginning is slow yes, but if you can get past that part and the somewhat clunky/difficult controls the game has, i think you have one of the best gaming experiences of past decade and easily a GOTY contender.

    The game can be slow at times, especially trying to travel. The story, game play, combat, animation, graphics is the best I have ever experienced. Truly the best game ever made.

    This game, I think, is genre and era defining. It's great, borderline perfect to me. I've never been as immersed and impacted by a game, maybe ever. That being said crunch and exploitation are what made this game possible and I can't/won't forget that.

    I don't get why people give it bad reviews because they thought it was boring I get why they might be upset but that really shouldn't account for your bad review. It does get long and boring in areas but the story and the gameplay not to mention the setting keeps me going and keeps me playing all the way through.

    Well to start out the story 60+ hours depending on your time consumption. The shooting mechanics are perfect because each gun has it's proper animation meaning when you a revolver the chamber rotates, or when you shoot lever action rifle you pull the lever before each shot. The bullet physics are spot on and the death animations are realistically perfect for the time period. The historicalWell to start out the story 60+ hours depending on your time consumption.

The historical references are all there and make since with tongue and cheek personality as well as impartiality. The diverse cast of characters break stereotypes so this game is not just Grand Theft Horse, This game is a whole new step by Rockstars Games in order to bring back traditional story telling and multiplayer with a vast array of combat and minigames. Poker Dominoes Five Finger Fillet that is only included in the story mode but is reasonable because the Online is in the Beta Fish stage. Also the fist fighting is really impressive with the amount of detail and realism. The level design is perfect because of the amount of realism and environmental effects, So to some it all up the game has very few flaws that can't be picked at because the amount of positives out weigh the negatives. This game deserves game of the year. 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]

    The first new game from Rockstar for this generation of consoles doesn't disappoint, it is as impressive as you hoped it to be.
