    The game looks like GTA 5, sometimes it seems that this is it, only with mods. Rockstar had a good advertising campaign, but I personally did not like the game. At the beginning, she tries to seem interesting, but these are just scripts to start the game.

    This game is good at graphics and atmosphere as western, but its operationality is very poor and we have to learn too many things to play well.

    I have been waiting for this game for quite a while. I have to say I am disappointed. 1. Just because you play GTA5 doesn’t mean you know how to work the controller.

This is only a single player game, and honestly i am disappointed. Rockstar should have done a better job at saying NO online play until way later,,,, but they are i the business of making money, and by admitting the truth, that would not have money in their bank accounts.

    Horrible gameplay...perhaps the worst in any game to date. Everything from movement, to interacting to gunplay feels clumsy, slow and unsatisfying.
    And despite all the effort that went into world simulation, game, like every Rockstar game fails miserably at crime system.
    How the "journalists" managed to not criticize this, is absolutely unbelievable, considering this composes 95% of the game.

    This game is bland, generic and offers nothing new to the genre. It had the potential to be a great game, but ended up with as much substance as a coleslaw.

And every time the game speeds up a little bit couple seconda later u get slowed down again due to another boring conversation or a cutscene or deep snow or pick your reason.. Looting a corpse takes 3-4 seconds wtf and looting in general is so much pain in the *ss as u barely notice where to loot I'm the first place, all the actions u have to long press to waste some more time I'm not surprised this is a 70 hour game lol..
    To end my disappointment auto aim shooting, fishing and hunting all at a senior pace I rather play Tetris, I hope the online gets better or i wasted some more money to loadstar, no slowstar :) slow ass redemption 2 big no for me :(

    Este juego en la versión de Play station 4 pro y estandar se ve muy pero muy borroso no lo recomiendo en estos 2 sistema de video consola mejor optar por la opción nativa a 4KUHD REALES en la versión de la competencia , pero eso no es todo en la versión de PS4 tiene un mogollón de bug y caídas de frame .

    Great graphics, boring gameplay. This is probably the Budget of the Year game for Marketing! not for gaming. Rockstar is working too explicitly to bring high point reviews here, all of their PR is driving people to metacritic, just to recover their score. Come on Rockstor, you produced a good game, but can not live up to hype. You can't buy reviews with false advertising.

    Extremly overyped game. I love open world games and even horse riding in video games, but this game does too much wrong to be a good game. The pseudo realistic stuff like eating, caring about your horse, cleaning your guns etc sounds cool but isn't fun. The controls are awful and last gen. Walking is either too slow or too fast.

Shooting mechanics are mediocre at best and complete trash compared to other games. Graphics are good but not breathtaking like Horizon Zero Dawn or The Witcher. Horse riding isn't fun because of the controls and constant button mashing, theres a left stick for running and riding, USE EM ROCKSTAR! Until the end of chapter 4 the story is boring. Chapter 5 & 6 arw great, but that's not good enough. Overall RDR2 is an okay game, but nothing special and absolutely overyped by the media. I had more fun with Horizon Zero Dawn and The Witcher, two open world games with lower metascores. Expand

    Honestly the most boring thing I have ever played. I'm hours and hours in, and I have yet to find a reason for why this is even a videogame. I haven't made any decisions as a player the entire time (neither narrative nor ludic) - all I've done is hold X to go toward somewhere, wait a very long time, then hold the square button to do what the game wants me to do there.

    Like, imagine a western film, but instead of utilizing montage, Sergio Leone instead makes you watch Clint ride his horse from town to town in real time. Also, once in a while he makes you play some Big Buck Hunter to get to the next scene. How does this improve the experience at all?

    Agonizingly paced. I'm mad at this game for wasting so much of my time and money.

    It's beautiful... and that's it. After 2 hours of a boring tutorial that you can't skip, you are met with the typical Wild West setting where nothing really happens. The mechanics they introduced in order to make the game more immersing, like having to trim your beard, eating, taking baths, are refreshing until you find yourself wasting half of your playtime doing these mundane things.It's beautiful... and that's it.

Playing on a ps4 (since rockstar could not be bothered to port it to pc) the game looks dreadful, getting incredibly low frame rate at almost every scene. The gameplay is not that good, the open world is extremely detailed yet EMPTY, people saying that this game is a new standard for video game open worlds are wrong, everything within this games open world has been done since morrowind. Its nothing new, just another open world game where all you do is ride your horse for 12 minutes to shoot one guy, having a big world does not mean its a good world, look at any modern bethesda open world game they may not be the biggest but they are the most detailed, content rich and absolutely packed with something to see, do talk to look at, pick up. RDR2 suffers from the open world game curse, where they think big and empty is better than small and full.

    Overall this game is not what everyone is saying it is, DO NOT believe the positive reviews as they are all blinded by hype.

    I'll explain.
    Net of superlative graphics, the game presents approaches that clash and screech each other in a paradoxical way.
    You make me a slow game, perhaps cumbersome, full of tricks from a real simulation that requires a certain dedication? There wallowing.
    Every evening I camp, I prepare food, packs projectiles, I wash constantly and I take care of the horse as if it were my son.
    But why do I immerse myself in this magnificent philosophy in a skeleton that in disguise is still an arcade? Why propose a world so vast without any plant really from gdr?
    The dead eye takes away all fun in the long run and the assisted aim is even worse. Can I take it off? sure, if to aim was not an agony. Is it an agony because the PG is a beginner? Then I would stay there, but this would mean that the pg evolves into experience and maybe at the level x is released dead eye and aim assist.
    Can you make me a sketchy temperature / clothing system? I adore. But then let it be an accessory of a real looting, in which I buy clothes that give me adrenaline stats, vitality, strength, etc. Is not it credible with the world?
    Why help a comrade out of prison by killing a whole town and then pay a fee and go back there is a smile? No, and for charity it should not be, it's a video game.
    Then the world.
    Cross and delight.
    Never seen anything so beautiful. Never seen greater missed opportunity.
    The one mission philosophy for time is absurd for this scaffolding and, even if we want to follow a strong narrative choice in which it is a story, what I have to live, not a narrative of mine, is standing in a bad state.
    Already experienced many experiences in which the mission x that could be between point A and B of a principal (solitary or non-hyper narrative) can not be triggered because I have to do the mission chosen at the time and only that.
    Examples? I collect debts and I remember that on the path between one and the other there was a bounty. Can I do it to break and give better rhythm? No. On the contrary if I pass the npc that I will magically find there are not and will only spawn at completed debts mission.
    Or. I'm going to do a robbery to a diligence and in the path known an NPC asking for help. I approach. I can not interact. Is it more consistent with the fact that the mission is being carried out? Maybe. Is it fun / fulfilling? No.
    I was playing today again at TW3 for example. I'm carrying out a mission and in useful points the NPC in front of me always asked me the choice "do you want to continue or come back later?". Or anyway I could leave the npc halfway also starting the following step and going to hunt a monster and then come back wanting. Those to the cd projekt are naive that do not think of certain dynamics? No, on the contrary it is just thinking about the fun of the player who made the game flexible. At Rockstar they made a game for pure onanism, emphasizing choices of gameplay because "integrity" when they had to stand with their feet on the ground and think that the gamer must also have fun.
    And be clear, sometimes with rdr2 I enjoy it. But at times.
    I eat my hands every single time open the map for example. I open and I see an exterminated and beautiful thing with ... one, maximum two, three counters. Why? What is it really for? Eight years and I do not have an Indian faction to do separate missions, or a corrupt police faction or anything else to keep a varied rhythm? The old and buggy Skyrim had stupendous wizards, thieves, murderers line quest and the thing kept him more alive than ever. Now sure, I do not say to deliriously losing the compass of the main story but for God it's all a voyage of beautiful fractured horseshoes. And furthermore, where to sell an item I have a receiver far from the other. Do you use trains, stagecoaches or fast travels? All right, but then we're admitting the damage.
    And the few missions?
    Two random.
    Secondary. Bounty hunt.
    Ride 10 minutes to Strawberry. A casual encounter of a woman in search of archaeological finds. Nothing special. I arrive and take the poster. Another 7 minutes on horseback. Dude in a cave. Shoot ralenty to disarm it. End of mission. Time of action. 40 seconds. Maybe.
    Primary. Robbery at home.
    10 minutes on horseback. Arrival and companion that suggests me diversion him and I sneak. Shooting in any case after 5 seconds. Killed everyone in just 2 minutes. End.
    A mission in an open world AAA almost in 2019 can not be reduced to a single action. It is unacceptable.
    Else. Last but I would have to myriads to mention. The wanted system . A disaster.
    Ah, last but not least. R2 interaction? Option speaks, phrases of circumstance. Offensive option, shooting. Wow. The only thing worth noting is the great work in making 6000 different answers. Same on animations.
    Here, the animations are the litmus test of the game. Cosmetics

    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]
