    I enjoyed every minute of it. The story was good, the gameplay was very good, and the graphics were great. One of the best open world games I ever played. Rockstars are best when it comes to open world games. I love The attention to details to the details. I hope we get a DLC soon.

    The game is amazing. The characters, guns, gameplay, and the horse mechanics are great. The gameplay is clunky because its very realistic which puts me off spending the extra time find all the collectibles. But that feel fits perfectly with this game in order to tell the story it is so to makes it seem like a real thing rather than in a video game.

But that feel fits perfectly with this game in order to tell the story it is so to makes it seem like a real thing rather than in a video game. And with the best graphics in any video game for sure top 3, that realistic feel makes it feel like real life when exploring or doing missions which no game can do even Tlou 2 since its a linear game their is no exploring the world or anything besides the main missions. Meeting random people makes it feel even more real the way you interact. Side missions are great which gives you an idea of who really is the protagonist, the type of person he is and how he turns out to be depending on your honor which depends on you the player. And nothing else needs to be said even about the main campaign because thats a 11 out of 10 Expand

Su narrativa pausada pero efectiva ayuda que los momentos se sientan como eso, intensos. No recae en el factor nostalgia de su predecesora e introduce una excelente historia a personajes que ya conocíamos y vamos a conocer. Lo cual me lleva al siguiente punto: Arthur Morgan. Qué personaje ha salido de la "Gran R", sin duda, el más complejo, el más carismático y que a pesar de su fachada de hombre rudo y forajido se esconde alguien asustado y que no sabe reaccionar a las situaciones más allá de la violencia con la que constantemente lucha para no sacar a luz.
    El corazón del juego reside en su entorno y el mundo que en verdad se siente vivo, en el cual, el jugador puede perderse infinitamente en este vasto mapa, con su exquisito gameplay y nuevas mecánicas de las cuales, espero que Rockstar tome nota e implemente en futuros títulos. Pocas veces Rockstar logra sacar un lado humano en sus protagonistas y personajes más allá de una motivación ambiciosa o simplemente sociopata y que la industria del videjuego como tal nos tiene tan acostumbrados. Aplaudo sus impresionantes gráficas y la brillante iluminación que permite que sintamos el sol en nuestro rostro, el viento soplando y acariciando nuestra piel o el calor que supone sentarse en la fogata del campamento mientras conversas con tu pandilla. Hasta ahora una obra maestra difícil de superar.

    Antes de empezar, probablemente me extienda demasiado en esta reseña así que daré mi veredicto ahora, es un juegazo y debes jugarlo si o si, ahora comienzo con las razones.

    El juego es una autentica obra maestra y esta lleno de detalles, los gráficos son increíbles, la IA fantástica, las cientos de especies de animales, el sistema de caza, la recolección la ambientación, la historia es genial, con unos personajes carismaticos y profundos, las localizaciones son increibles y la ambientación te deja un gran sabor de boca, el detalle en las armas es genial y en general la mayoría de sistemas del juego no suman y están ahí por una razón, ademas es una gran experiencia jugarlo, y tras un punto de no retorno que no diré por spoilers (quien lo haya jugado lo entenderá) y que te abre otra parte del mapa, la jugabilidad cambia dando paso a una jugabilidad totalmente distinta, cada detalle, cada personaje y cada fotograma son fantásticos.
    Puede que me este repitiendo pero no es para menos, no se puede expresar con palabras el nivel que tiene este juego.
    Ademas, muestra la época como lo que era, una época de cambio y renovación, se puede ver el inicio del movimiento sufragista, la industrializacion y lo increíblemente bien representado que esta el fin de la época de los vaqueros.
    Ademas, la historia conecta genial con la del primero, y explica por que en este no se habla del protagonista, ademas, da pistas de que hay un final aun sin descubrir (que hasta rockstar ha confirmado) y esto desemboca en una parte de la comunidad intentando descubrirlo, el juego es gigantesco y el sistema de karma es increíble, ademas, el mundo parece que esta vivo, cada paso que das hace que este ultimo te demuestre mas que no es un simple videojuego, cada NPC, animal, cada detalle, contribuye a que el mundo te parezca aun mas vivo.
    Las misiones secundarias son fantásticas y para nada repetitivas, el gunplay es suave y da una sensación increíble, el combate es fantástico y cada viaje es único.

    Es una obra maestra y demuestra que rockstar sigue pudiendo hacer juegos increíbles.
    Aun asi, el juego esta rodeado en polémica debido a al crunch que recibieron los empleados, algo comun en esta industria, es algo que cualquiera esperaria de un juego tan bueno, no sale gratis, y a veces me pregunto si para llegar a estos puntos de calidad hay que sacrificar el bienestar de los empleados, es triste ver que la mayoría de veces es necesario, aunque espero que todos los desarrolladores sepan que han creado una obra maestra y que cada una de las horas invertidas ha valido la pena.
    Así que este es un mensaje para los devs, por si algún día alguien que ha participado en el desarrollo de este juego se cruza con esta review, solo quiero decir, Gracias.

    Brilliant and filled with many innovative features.

    The story and characters are very interesting and memorable. The world is alive, with people living their lives with or without your interference. I only have very minor nitpicks, other than that, this game is near perfect.

    Huge detailed open world. The game truly does make you feel like a gunslinger however it’s evolved around really slow gameplay and minor action compared to the original first red dead.

Both games are GOTY worthy Expand

    An ambitious game in terms of narrative and story which unfortunately is held back by its willful adherence to outdated gameplay mechanics and structure. Overall this game is a wonderfully done narrative experience which respects its characters, both new and returning, and tells a story with depth and character.

    An ambitious game in terms of narrative and story which unfortunately is held back by its willful adherence to outdated gameplay mechanics and structure. Overall this game is a wonderfully done narrative experience which respects its characters, both new and returning, and tells a story with depth and character.

    This story is unfortunately hampered and sometimes undermined by mechanics and gameplay that are sometimes at odds with the story itself. The illusion of choice is given to the player on whether to be an "honest" or ruthless outlaw, but often many objectives and goals presented to the player will be in direct opposition to their preferred persona. Those who wish to play an "honest" or high honor character will still have to rob coaches, hurt and murder random strangers minding their own business and do other nefarious deeds if they wish to obtain every collectible, trophy, and ultimately obtain a "100% clear" status. Likewise, players wishing to play selfish personas may still have to occasionally do fetch quests and acts of charity if they wish to see everything in the game.
    Additionally, although the game encourages you to use a cinematic camera view which minimizes HUD information, often many missions will require you to go to a specific location such as "a field" or "outside this building". However, the player will often be required to stand in a VERY specific location in that particular field or outside that building, which can only be known by having the HUD active with the corresponding yellow area highlighted illustrating the mission objective.

    Though the game may seem like a long haul, those who stick with it will be rewarded by an ambitious story which takes the time to make every character, even minor ones, feel like real people with their own personal pasts, motivations and personalities. The development of Dutch's gang and each of its members relationships with each other is drawn out enough to make it believable how they change over time. Characters which are friendly to each other may eventually grow tense and cautious, while other characters without much in common develop deep connections through shared hardships.

    The main issue with Red Dead Redemption 2 is having too much "stuff" for the sake of having it, whether it's specific gameplay mechanics and controls that have been in virtually every Rockstar game in the past 15 years, collectibles just to keep the player occupied, or even extra missions which the game really doesn't need(some of the missions in the games epilogue are especially guilty of this). The game tries to please those interested in mostly action gameplay, those interested in storytelling, and those interested in accomplishing goals and collectibles all at the same time. Luckily Rockstar did a great enough job with all of these that this game should please anyone looking for one or all of these things.

    Despite these criticisms, there is a lot the game does right to create a living, breathing world that feels alive and both interactive and reactive to the player. Overall this is certainly not a perfect title as some would suggest, but it is definitely worth your time and money. Would highly recommend to anyone who is a fan of Rockstar titles or open world games in general.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is just amazing, this is the first time i play this game and it was excelent, but the wanted sistem, the guarma chappter and some other problems put this game away from a 10.
    But still, the story is pretty good, the technical level is amazing, the music it’s incredible, and the characters are in other level.

    Story 7/10 arthurs story is great. Dutchs story doesnt make sense at the end and the epiolog was unecessary to long.

    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.
