    모든게 완벽하지만 그중에서도 디테일이 돋보이는 게임. 게임을 진행하다보면 감탄이 절로 나오는 스토리. 매려적인 주인공. 정말 서부시대에 살고 있는 것 같은 느낌을 줌. 이런 게임을 만들어주신 락스타 게임즈에게 찬사를...

    This game is a god damn masterpiece. It's so good out of respect I sat through the credits at the end. I felt as if i was a part of the Van Der Linde gang. This game is the best thing since sliced bread.

    Called a western video game, this work of art is an overwhelming and engaging experience, from start to finish. The game puts you in the shoes of a disillusioned outlaw but with a heart of gold who will be very easy to fall in love with.
    The game is a gigantic open world, realism is perpetrated in every aspect of the gameplay, from the incredible ragdoll, to the responsiveness of Arthur.

    The game is a gigantic open world, realism is perpetrated in every aspect of the gameplay, from the incredible ragdoll, to the responsiveness of Arthur.

    The attention to detail unfolds throughout the 60 hours of play. The graphics sector is incredible considering the amount of details on the screen, and considering the low framerate drops even on basic Ps4.

    The animations of the protagonist and the other characters are fantastic and well done, perfectly in line with what players would expect from a Rockstar videogames!

    The missions are interesting and always well thought out and developed. the thing that makes you identify are the random encounters, countless and scattered throughout the game map. The secondary missions know how to keep you company almost as much as the main ones, and everything is linked by a glue of realism and historical verisimilitude without equal.

    Summing up, it can be said that this game has a narrative and videogame depth unrivaled in today's panorama.

    Great game! I only have a few minor gripes about it overall. My biggest complaint is the very slow pace of the game and how it is intentionally made slower than it needs to be. I love the world and the characters and the story is good and interesting but way too drawn out. There is tons to do and I've never touched the online side

    Red Dead Redemption 2 certainly does not try to appeal to all types of audience. Yes, not everyone would want to take weapons off the horse (and when you forget to do it, it is ANNOYING) or even feed your character.

    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

    Red Dead Redemption 2 ist einfach ein muss für jeden Gamer auf dieser Welt, ganz einfach, man muss dieses Spiel einfach gespielt haben, da kann es keine 2 Meinungen geben, wirklich eines der besten Spiele die ich jemals gespielt habe.

    Lot of fun. Felt purposely elongated in some places though. For example, epilogue on average takes 7 hours to complete. Story is interesting. Great voice acting and everything.

Everybody feels and soundsThis game is incredible and mind-blowing to me, and clearly to many others too. The motion capture for the characters are vibrant, realistic and professionally done. The voice acting is amazing and engaging. the controls and overall gameplay are incredible and feel so smooth to play. The graphics are gorgeous, and some of the most impressive gaming has ever seen. Everybody feels and sounds real, as if I'm really interacting with the characters in the game. There are so many missions, side-quests, things to do, and places to explore in this vibrant world, and I couldn't ask for anything more. The hunting is in-depth, where you need different guns and different types of ammunition for nearly each species and breed of animal, you can skin the animals graphically, or keep the carcass. You can set up a campfire and cook the meat, then take the pelt to camp to craft, or to a butcher to sell. The fishing is relaxing and engaging, with great controls, and satisfying catches. You can use different baits and lures for different environments, and nearly every lake, swamp or river has a different breed of fish for you to try and conquer and cook. However, this game is not devoid of flaws. Firstly, the honour system. It's too sensitive to positive actions, and far too forgiving for negative ones. If you throw fish back into the water after catching them, you gain a tiny bit of honour. This can turn gaining honour too easy, and into a sort of grind. After you massacre a town, you can go fish a little and the game basically forgets you ever murdered those innocent people and hard-working lawmen. Secondly, bounty hunting. It's limited. There's only so many bounties you can hunt, and sure, they all serve their own cinematic, well-written storyline, but It would have been better in my own opinion if they added an unlimited array of bounties, for example, you walk into a sheriff's office, and find 2-4 bounties on the board. You can choose which ones you want to pursue, and they're all at different prices for different offenses. They could be travelling by wagon, by horse, hiding in a camp or base, or even on a train, leading to a great variety of approaches to each bounty. The same issue arises to a smaller degree with stagecoach holdups. There's a certain number of them, all with different pay-outs, but you will eventually run out of scores to pull off. Sure, they're available out in the wild, but it would be nicer if you could do harder missions with higher pay-outs as you please. Despite all these small nit-picks, this game is still an absolute wonder, and has so much replay ability that people are still starting new games, creating content and broadcasting the story mode avidly to this day, nearly 3 years after release. Well done to Rockstar Games for creating such a masterpiece of an experience. Outlaws for life. Expand

    Проработка крови, ран, оружия, охоты! Всё есть, не позаботиться о мелочах за 7 лет разработки было-бы кащумством!

    лично мне нравиться медитативность в играх, но излишняя затянутость движений, действий.

This game has so much potential and Rockstar Games used ALL of it.
    Because of how complex this game is, it might take a while to get into the gameplay. But once you're into the game, you will not be able to stop playing it. As some other users already mentioned it, this game is an outstanding piece of art.
    Nothing to add.

    The story is unparalleled, it is a roller-coaster ride of emotions.
    The gameplay is perfect as well. Grounded and "slow" gameplay was needed to capture the essence of a World crafted to be more realistic than any other game before it.
    This is more than a masterpiece of a 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]
