    Well here is a very good example of why red dead redemption 2 deserves a 10 and not a 9 or 8, But yet im gonna talk with the downside a little bit and hope that Rockstar will fix later on in future games the movement system with that x tap and not to mention that sometimes the character walks way to slow and when youre holding the x button he sprints and crashes into people and you loseWell here is a very good example of why red dead redemption 2 deserves a 10 and not a 9 or 8, But yet im gonna talk with the downside a little bit and hope that Rockstar will fix later on in future games the movement system with that x tap and not to mention that sometimes the character walks way to slow and when youre holding the x button he sprints and crashes into people and you lose honor and even the horse riding is a bit of a pain they could at least make the movement in the game like TLOZBW Nintendo nailed the whole movement system perfectly but i know rockstar could take it to the next level with their realism POV (overall rockstar the movement is clunky and annoying at times) ... Now that thats out of my way (ill try to keep it short) the rest of the game is a 10/10 cuz you have so much to do besides story missions, you have fishing, hunting, horse caring, bounty hunting, side missions, attractions, and even just exploring the whole map is an adventure of its own ! i really see things where rockstar are taking their games and its definitely the step up in video games ! the story is outstanding with such a powerful voice acting ! and the actors on the cinematics are very talented ! the game sometimes even questioned me if im playing a real life story of another person or is this one of rockstars biggest game right now and they have totally nailed it on both ! the game is alive and very accurate in the historical time and age of outlaws right before ww1 and on the time of the countries civil war and the immigration to the usa... By far i think im just in love with this game the soundtrack the activities of mini games and just hanging around and doing chores in the camp and so much more that i mentioned before i am enjoying every bit of it ! and with all of what i have done in the game im still hungry to enjoy it more ! people all over youtube are finding more stuff and references in the game i also think i should do review videos to get into many more specifics but for now i do highly recommend this game ! this is the kind of game that should be in everybody's library and i am looking forward to see whats next with rockstar those guys are talented and even the people in the studio are very much talented and even the people in the game all the characters and npc's are very very talented i am very much in love with this game ! and did i also talk about the action on horses and gunplay? well thats where the game is a true wild west and you also need to take care of youre weapons and horses the shooting is sublime as well is the horse riding and chasing the action in this game is superb !!!! Even the progression system is super rewarding and i love the honor mechanic also it really makes a good change for your world in the game !! Overall this is a game i will never get out of my mind in ages i truly love this game!!!!… Expand

RDR2 on the other hand completely breaks the mould that open world games have been set in for a long time. The way they blend cinematic style moments and game play is amazing . The way the music drifts in and out matching the things you are doing in the world really enhances the experience. The excitement of old world gun fights and surviving of the land really makes this game a standout in this generation.
    As this is a Rockstar game the controls and movement leans closer to realism over twitch accuracy and when I first experienced this movement in GTA 4 and Max Payne 3 I found it off putting, but as I adapted to it (as intelligent people are able to do), I have found it to be incredibly intuitive and gives the overall game play a level of immersion and satisfaction that you dont find often in control schemes. Riding a horse through this world is an experience in itself, it is the most realist interpretation of horse riding and care, ever in a game and as this is set in the old west you spend a lot of the time on horse back and every time I mount the horse and giddy him up there is a sense of enjoyment.
    I have found a couple of negatives with the game, firstly on the PS4 pro the game uses a strange filter or dithering effect to run the game at a higher resolution, its really detracts for the beautiful game world at times and I really hope the give an option to lower the resolution for a crisper image in the future. The other issue is (Tap A rapidly to move fast) having to tap the A button rapidly to sprint and Gallop does add to the sense on movement and urgency in the game, but it isnt worth it for the carpel tunnel you get in your hand, I am getting on in years and I have to stop playing this game due to the pain it causes in my hand. There is also the issue of the realism of the controls and the animation making it a chore to control Aurther, there feels like many cheap deaths when Aurther dosent do what you expect because he is reacting to some random object in the environment and all the small animation add up to being extremely irritating to watch after a time.
    The size of the world, the graphics, the psychics, everything is this game has level of polish and attention to detail that puts every game before it shame. They have really spared no expense or time to get the most from the Wild West world they have created and only the simplest and toxic of minds would be able to say this game is anything less than Amazing.    … Expand

The graphics are gorgeous, the setting is beautiful, the atmosphere feels real, the characters talk and behave as real people. All these elements combined really help create a true western story.

    Now. To the actual game part. That's the main issue for me. The controls are clunky AF, the pacing is slow and most of the time you feel bored while you travel the place looking for something to do. The character walks as fast as snail when he is not in the wilderness, and most of the time I feel as if I am playing for a couple of hours without getting much done. Then I do a quest or two, get bored and stop playing it.

    But the main problem in my opinion are the controls... they seem outdated, weird, almost broken sometimes. Everything about the game feels bureaucratic and slow. You never quite know exactly what you are doing most of the time because everything is so poorly explained.

    At this point, I am playing it to see how this story ends and because RDR 1 is one of my favorite games. This 2nd game seems to be all smoke and mirrors, all hype and not much else. I actually cannot believe this is how I feel about this game.

    But the truth is that, for me, playing Red Dead Redemption 2 has been a chore.    … Expand

    Hi everyone, I'm writing this review hence some pc butthurt people cannot stress the fact that it isn't on their master race piece of hardware or they cannot believe a game different from their usual fast pace Call of Duty **** is getting perfect reviews, let me establish once for all this thing, coming from a former internal reviewer at Ubisoft in Bucharest, the game is staggering, if notHi everyone, I'm writing this review hence some pc butthurt people cannot stress the fact that it isn't on their master race piece of hardware or they cannot believe a game different from their usual fast pace Call of Duty **** is getting perfect reviews, let me establish once for all this thing, coming from a former internal reviewer at Ubisoft in Bucharest, the game is staggering, if not 'perfect' nonetheless, let me explain.
    The game is slow and using this as an argument is pretty ignorant on your part, when this is the charm of it, the western times, historically speaking, were slow and tensed, such pace the teams in Kyiv, Montreal etc tried to replicate on Black Flag and I might say they HAD to get it wrong, just because it was 'boring', at the end we failed making a true pirate-ish experience, fearing it was 'too empty'; the fact that Rockstar went a step further and not just making it true to the times, but enforcing this type of gameplay, they had the result of a game that's amazingly immersive and if you disagree, then sorry, it's just not your cup of tea then, but remember, slow pace isn't a flaw, but rather a strong point, especially when in the same review you admit that it's beautiful as a game, so if you would just stop and look at things from time to time, it's a chill, immersive and tensed experience, trust me.
    Now you might be wondering, why I'm saying tensed, oh well, start the game and you'll see that the music, the landscape, the details like your gun being cocked or your gun just stop working, dropping your weapon to pickup a shotgun from your horse, the moment you'll be facing 8 goons at once and trying to intimidate them by shooting in the air, because you're on plain sight with no cover, a simple ambush in the swamp, or a heist of a train, you can see where I'm going, those moments get tensed, because you're so used with the calm pace of the game and immediately you're thrown in a life-death situation, where if you **** up, you're dead. And to be honest, the game isn't empty at all, but that's for you to decide, for me it wasn't up until this point and until now I analyzed just gameplay, I just got into the story and it fits perfectly to the overall idea and scenery of the game. It's a game where you're ACTUALLY LIVING THE WEST LIFE.
    Now let me tackle some arguments:
    1. 'I hate when my horse is too far away' - it's a gameplay mechanic, take care of your horse, and it won't be that much of a problem, it's basically to make it more realistic than the usual Metal Gear 'I'm calling the horse and it randomly spawns from the oblivion' thing.
    2. 'I hate it's not on the PC' - FINALLY I can talk about this, so, basically there are 2 ways of releasing something on consoles and pc, you either program 2 games, which takes longer to do and it takes the focus out from the production of the game OR you do one (either consoles or pc) and then port it to the other hardware, which, for me, it's a terrible idea cause always people will rant about differences and the immense number of bugs the ported one has, or should I recall Batman to prove my point? I respect Rockstar for choosing to focus on the game and then make a separate and working game on the PC, I think Rockstar either will respond to the requests and make a PC version, after they released the online version, or they will just leave it on the consoles, life is life, I owned a 360 and the last of us came out but I didn't make a fuss about it, even though I'm a PC guy, accept the fact that Rockstar intends to focus on the game, rather than selling.
    3. 'It's a chore' - It is for those that don't want to accept realism, this isn't again your average juggernaut suit killing every **** in my way kinda **** this is a lifestyle type of game, if you wanna destroy everything in your path, Rockstar got you covered with GTA, sooo cheers

    Cheers indeed, I wanted to add some more, but to be honest I just wanted to put my counter-argument on display, I'll keep the rest of my opinion to myself, even though the storyline was... astonishing, the reasoning for my vote is the story, attention to detail, the world, the theme and of course the beauty of it all... and also for the fact that I can play poker in-game, well done Rockstar.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. a little too hyped, but still a solid game. Story is good. Shooting feels good. horses feel great. doesn't have the **** setup missions from gtav. I wish there were some more weapons; I wanted to go to another gunsmith and see the different weapons they had, but every vendor has the same thing. lots of fun shootouts. Has some good humor. Some cut-scenes were really amazing and showed emotion in an indirect manner. I wish the main character was a more compelling, but he still passes as a human being, but I think thats more of a matter of opinion. And lots of side stuff to do. Random encounters arent always a mission and i like that, keep it simple. I am almost done with the game and will be updating my review after that.

    FINAL REVIEW: A really great game. Arthur becomes a father like character by the end of the game and that made me feel a connection towards him. I ended up liking him more than John. The game gets A LOT better after the 3rd chapter. The pace picks up and tensions rise in the later chapters. The ending is set up very well and delivers an emotional experience that I loved so much. There were a few characters I wish I could spend more time with, but the character building was still pretty good. I wish the new area after you complete the game was less empty; there isnt much to do. Sorry if this review is a bit messy, Im just listing any criticism or praise that comes to mind. The people that are giving the game a 0/10 really need to grow the **** up and actually play the game.    … Expand

    2-shooting is not fun (I enjoyed shootings in some games like Uncharted and TLOUS and Battlefield but maan!
    isn't this game suppose to be a cowboy game when shooting is the main focus thing and most polished element in the game ?!!
    shooting is not fun and the aim assistant is just ridiculous (I know I can remove it but still controls suck any time you try to shoot without it )
    the red eye is just too powerful and ridiculous .

    They should have copied uncharted shooting mechanism if they cant invent a proper one for the 3rd person view
    and copied battlefield or call of duty shooting mechanics for the 1st person view.

    3- camera ffff... camera transition between 3rd person to 1st person is not smooth and it suck and the 1st person view is just too clunky. (the transition made the screen disappeared for like milliseconds which killed for me to switch during shootouts ) and the first person gone is just the worst

    their are many other cons I will not mention here because the above were enough to make me stop playing the game,

    I don't understand the 10s that the game have got its 6 at best..
    Reviewers either stupid and just follow the hype, or they are just greedy bastards who just got paid...

    it make no sense and no excuse for rockstar to not develop a proper shooting mechanism with all the billions of dollars they make)

    and one last thing; RAGE engine is just SUCK!! while the landscapes looks beatiful, the character models and character skin is just BAD... with all the billions they made they should by now developed and engine like EA's forstbite engine or even better !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Red Dead Redemptiom Two is the most detailed, well-crafted and neat game I've ever seen in my entire life. The attention given to the minutiae details that any game would treat as unimportant, here are treated with the same importance of main mission. The characters are captivating, the story is engaging, the world is alive and detailed on an absurd level, all npcs have non-repetitive dialogues that enrich the experience in some way. The various mechanics of the game, do things that are usually considered as just aesthetic, now have a function, such as clothes for cold or heat, beard, hair, dirt on weapons, clothes or horse, all interfere with the gameplay. the game has a slower pace, and this is not a failure but a characteristic that we should adapt. The amount of things to do between missions, keeps us busy, which guarantees a long useful life to the game, activities like poker, dominoes, hunting, fishing, blackjack and the own exploration of the world that hides several easter eggs and fun secrets very. Play calmly, and taking advantage of every moment, if you try to play this game in a hurry, it will NOT WORK.

    Simply gorgeous! I really don't understand all the dislikes...this is probably one of the best open world ever made, great story, amazing graphic, etc. etc.; and yes! I played RdR1 on the previous generation console and (on my opinion) this is just the wonderful sequel/prequel; That's it: 10 out of 10.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a fantastic game it has met all my expectations, however it is not without fault. The environments, storytelling and cast of characters are great , also the attention to detail is awe inspiring. The fact that you have to press R2 to pull the hammer back on a revolver or cock a rifle before firing adds a whole new gameplay element to the game causing you to quicklyRed Dead Redemption 2 is a fantastic game it has met all my expectations, however it is not without fault. The environments, storytelling and cast of characters are great , also the attention to detail is awe inspiring. The fact that you have to press R2 to pull the hammer back on a revolver or cock a rifle before firing adds a whole new gameplay element to the game causing you to quickly learn how best to approach combat which is usually sticking to cover rather than walking towards everyone like the terminator. Now U'm not going to list all the things the game does well because everyone has said it already but the things it does poorly. First things first, the pacing of the game particularly in the beginning can be rather slow almost boring as the game demands to teach you all of the basics within the first 2 chapters which can be a chore at times. The bounty system also could use some work as there have been too many times when I have been on my horse and a random dog or person walks in front of me and I run them over by accident just t.o get in trouble with the law. The controls at time can also be extremely clunky especially in first person I literally cannot look backwards in first person without my horse driftng off the road or beginning to spin in circles. There are more flaws bit rather minor ones.

    Overall the gaame is amazing the story an characters are amazing but, because of the issues with controls and some other issues I can't give the game a 10. 10 is reserved for 'masterpieces' Red Dead Redemption 2 is cloe to it but not quite there I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys good storytelling and immersive wo    … Expand

    It's kind of funny how just because a game doesn't appeal to you, the critics must be lying. I agree completetely with most critics, this is one of the best games I've ever played! Is the tutorial slow? Sure, but I love it. Interesting story and more importantly varied gameplay that show you a bit of everything you can do when the world opens up.

Interesting story and more importantly varied gameplay that show you a bit of everything you can do when the world opens up. And of course, the controls did feel cluncky the first few hours, but after getting used to them, they feel great! And I don't know what kind of games the majority here plays, but I can't see why people dislike the gameplay. The combat feel exciting since you have to balance staying in cover with finding stuff and keeping friends alive, other objectives are varied and exciting without being too fast-paced. I love that the game encourages you to hang around at camp, hunting and exploring, but it doen't force you to do anything. You can just do whatever you want to at any time, which for me is the most important factor in making a game fun. Does a 10/10 game have to be perfect? Of course not, but the flaws cannot detract from how fun and impressive the game is. For me, the only "flaws" I can think of can either be changed in settings, or doesn't detract from the experience at all.… Expand

    I have waited this game nearly 8 years and so far it has been one of the best games I have ever played. The world feels real, lived in. I feel like I am been sucked into this time period and I am truly living there with my fellow gang members. The animations are amazing. Rockstar has clearly but effort to even tiniest animation like opening a can of food or smoking a cigar.

Rockstar has clearly but effort to even tiniest animation like opening a can of food or smoking a cigar. The story so far I really liked it. It doesn't feel forced I can go at my own space and just get lost into all the activities they put into this game.

    I understand some of the criticism because sometimes (at the beginning) the game maybe bee a bit overwhelming and It will require you to but time and effort into it.

    Thank you to all the people who have worked on this amazing game.

    ps. the music score and the voice acting are also very good, Rockstar standard!! Outlaws 4 life.    … 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.
