    The art game, the perfection. Breathtaking story, mechanics, graphics, physics, gameplay, world and climat. What can more say. Shoting from every weapon is amazing, animations of reloading in first person camera are masterpiece. The horses are really well done, many breeds any every of them are very diffrent. Ones are slower but braver and other ones are as fast as bolid but get scaredThe art game, the perfection. Breathtaking story, mechanics, graphics, physics, gameplay, world and climat.

Story of the game should be used to do movie series and books, i loved it. Cooking, fishing and hunting are huge part of the game but only if we are into it. There is so many types of birds that i can't tell a difrece between them but there is. I loved fishing, catching the special fishes for guy and sending to them to him was really my favorite side mission. I can see this game is going to be timeless and our kids are going to play it and will enjoy it 10 years later. Expand

    I’m a really huge movie fan, one of my personal favorite movie’s was Once Upon A Time In America which was directed by the fantastic Sergio Leone who was famous for his Spaghetti Western movies such as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, For A Few Dollars More and so and so. So I was really familiar with the western genre.

So I was really familiar with the western genre. I played the first Red Dead Redemption in my uncle’s old laptop and didn’t really liked it (I wasn’t into games that much back in those days). When Red Dead Redemption 2 came out, I knew it was probably one of the best games that was ever released, but like I said I wasn’t into games that much, so I ignored it but when I got the chance to play it in 2020 December and from the first second to the last I was hooked! RDR2 was if not the best, at least was one of the best 10 games i’ve ever played! RDR2 offers you a large variety of good written characters, a fantastic story and bunch of epic twists and turns.RDR2 has a really huge world and a lot of new environments, it is probably the best open-world experiences that you will ever play and for all to GTA fans that will probably say that “GTA HAS A BETTER OPEN WORLD”, I really like GTA too, but I need to admit because of my passion for the old spaghetti western movies and the epic variety of RDR2’s world, this game has a beauty to it’s open world experience, of course in one hand you have probably the largest game franchise in all of the world: Grand Theft Auto but RDR2 is just magical and feels like something really close to the human soul and don’t get me started on the gameplay and the mechanics because it’s not my place to say a bad word about the rockstar games but RDR2 is really something special, man.Look, there would be some people that would say that RDR2 has one-dimensional characters and a story that’s really repetitive but in my honest opinion they’re all wrong. RDR2 has great character development, a really good story with a bunch of twists and turns and I’m not going to give-away anything of this wonderful magnificent game but the ending is probably one of the best endings i’ve seen in my entire life. I know that i’m not the person you should listen when it’s come to these type of games and if you really think that I’m just hyping this game, go out and play this wonderful game. You won’t regret it : 97/100 Expand

    Rockstar puts out the best games possible everytime. I could elaborate for years on what makes this game good but it would be easier to list the bad.
    The online mode is lacking and had been since its launch.

    Game design is on the high level , but sometimes I have felt that , that there are small number of mechanics and because of it some missions were the same.I think, that the solution to the problem was just somehow made some exclusive mechanics to the different levels. This is Rockstar , I think , they can afford it.But how levels and mechanics have introduced into the open world , amazing!
    And, yeah, RDR2 has got the best open world ever made.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Пожалуй, Rockstar создали одну из величайших игр поколения. Никогда не было такого уделения внимания деталям. Ни в одной игре я не засиживался по 5-6 часов играя в покер, рыбалка, охота. Открытый мир наполнен различными событиями.
    Сюжетная линия за Артура Моргана, пожалуй, это самая красивая история игрового персонажа. Он харизматичен, запоминается, в нём ни чёрного, ни белого. Особенно 4-6 глава, где игра спокойно уделывает любой голливудский блокбастер. А концовка стала ужасно грустной, и та самая музыка из концовки.
    Да музыка тоже достойна похвалы, полностью передаёт ту самую атмосферу Дикого Запада.
    Эпилог за Джона Марстона мне показался немного скучным, но всё же последнее задание не даёт заскучать.
    Да и большинство персонажей игры запоминается, одним сопереживаешь, других ненавидишь. Но к ним нет равнодушия.
    Пожалуй, на текущий момент это лучшая игра, которая выпущена на данный момент

    The best game of this generation without a doubt. It has no logic that was not goty in 2018. Those awards stopped making sense that year.

    The game with the best physics, history, characters, graphics and details of this generation

    The story of Arthur and how it is told should be studied in schools, in an authentic masterpiece of history and narrative. A story of redemption of the level of the first part.

    Each chapter of the game introduces you to their world, to the gang, to the end of the west and has an end-of-age background that they are not aware of.

    The game has been accused of being boring, slow, and old missions.

    The game is not boring. From the beginning it starts strong and you meet the villains, already in the first chapter. He takes his time to develop the story that is formed through disjointed missions that form an incredible whole. Not like other games that only go straight to the main thing.

    It is not slow, it is how such a man would move, with realistic physics. If you are used to games like dmc5, bayonetta, etc, it is strange, but it is as it should be in rdr.

    The missions are now more narrative, mimicking linear games but you actually have more options than in other open world games.

    In some missions you can make small decisions such as doing it day or night, the dialogues change depending on whether you do a mission before or another or what you do in it, you can decide if you or a partner attack, etc. So you actually have more decision-making power than other current games.

    The world is the most alive seen in a video game with its random events, i.a, physics, narrative, secondary missions, weather effects, it is the most next gen of this generation.

    And all these details are created, but the game does not point a finger at you like other games that want you to see what they have done for you to see. You can end the game and lose it because you are not at the right time, that makes it real, dynamic, alive, you are not the center of the game, you live in it like any other character.

    Again this saga makes me cry for a character, for a story and also gives us the opportunity to know how everything was just before the first game instead of telling it in a video as other games would. Here you play it, you enjoy it.

    The online may seem scarce compared to gta v but it has had dlc's even in the world situation in which we are.

    Other games with a multiplayer component like gt5 or uncharted had less content and less time of it and there are no complaints. This is not a one-year game, the dlc's will arrive and there is already more content than many online will have in their life

None of the sentences end in full stops. My friend promised me that the game would lend me a free ticket to heaven but when i hanged myself i ended up in hell, HORRIBLE FAKE NEWS. The false advertisement is also comparable to Cyberpunk2077 and ROBLOX VR, i was not able to ride horses because there were no horse. I cant roundhouse kick and karate chop them midair. I cant kill children in the game, why even include them then? I couldn't find my house and smartphone in the game, it also had no internet and the cars really break my immersion. Overall, play this game if you want to simulate being tortured by jihad ISIS fighters. 0/10 NSFL. Expand

    Boring game! Spend most of the time riding. Gunfights are to easy and boring. Missions are completely useless. Slow paced game. Real deception! Don’t play the last of us (1 and 2) and then play this game! You’ll be frustrated. Wasted 20 hours of my life and 30 euros with this 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.
