    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Best game ever made. Rockstar has focused much more on the depth of its world than the narrative and this calls for some amazing fun to be had. I kind of hated the honour system in that I wanted the good ending but I also wanted to do some of the fun stuff within the open world. Which is sad because it hugely limits what the player can do in its world. Other than that there’s a really fun game here with a developing online mode and horse balls. Expand

    This is a really hard game to rate - as it's a love-hate thing for me. The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison. So much care and love has gone into it - and it has pushed my poor PS4 to its limits. There are so many amazing experiences in the game. So many hours of fun and exploration. However, there's also a lot of banal time-wasting in a sea of nothingness. The real problemThis is a really hard game to rate - as it's a love-hate thing for me. The game is technically amazing - beyond comparison. So much care and love has gone into it - and it has pushed my poor PS4 to its limits. There are so many amazing experiences in the game. So many hours of fun and exploration. However, there's also a lot of banal time-wasting in a sea of nothingness. The real problem with the game is as a sandpit experience it's brilliant. You could live this life and never feel discontent. However, the game forces you (literally) to take an extremely linear 'scripted' approach to playing that it becomes a war of wills - if you submit to the 'my way or the highway' approach, then you will enjoy... otherwise you will never get to enjoy what this game offers. For a vast open world game - the 1P experience downright punishes you for being bold. As a result it is programmed for the weakest players to complete - which means you feel like you're playing a TT game more than an open world game. What I found particularly egregious was that you would start an innocuous sounding mission only to find that you are now embarked on a 4 mission marathon... without any opportunity to save or take a pause. Great if you're the only one using the PS4, but like most people you need to share, which doesn't work well when you can't save progress or pause between missions. I undestand the narrative pace part... but please... we live in the real world. The other thing that was annoying about this game was that there's never any real increase in difficulty - it's only more and more enemy. To the point where I seriously doubt anyone could keep track of the number of people that Arthur guns down... which is at complete odds with the whole redemption arc that is forced upon the character. So there's a lot I didn't like (in fact hated) about this game... however, I WAS one of those that was prepared to just invest my time in the 'experience' and go along for the ride. Oh - but if you've not played it... the one advice I would give is that don't worry about money - or how to spend it. This is perhaps the most badly designed part of the game as it completely undermines the entire premise of the story. Stoopid. Just completely stoopid. As a I right this - I wonder why I gave it a 9... but it's for all those moments of joy... and just cringe-worthy fantasy-living experiences.

    Edit - on reflection, I actually think the limitations and constraints imposed on the 1P game really detract from the experience - in an otherwise brilliant game: dropped from 9/10 to 8/10

    The game itself, the graphics, the music, the story are great, but there are a lot of downsides:
    1) The main quest, even without side-quests is too long.
    2) Crafting, hunting and gathering mechanics are useless. You have no need to cook or buy food or ammo – you always have enough of them. 3) The gameplay is repetitive in a bad way – you ride a horse and shoot 4) Excessive realism –

The whole experience feels rushed and unfinished. Many games have similar mechanics and got it right; having played The Witcher 3, this open world is a huge mess. Everything is linear, repetitive and you get punished for taking creative / different approaches like sneaking through windows or flanking the enemy. The game just has not planned for players doing this and spawns confused enemies right in front of you or lets you fail the mission instantly. Decisions you make do not matter much; all the important choices are usually made for you. Also, all you seem to do in missions is shooting loads of people. There is no change in pace or any variety to be found. I now dread yellow symbols on the map, because I am so tired of doing the same thing all over again. Cover, Deadeye, shoot, cover. It is not even challenging. if you enter an area you are not supposed to be in, you just die which is very inelegant. The saving grace are story (especially the actors), ambiance and graphics. I feel like this game would have needed a lot more testing and thought before being released. A lot of potential wasted. Expand

Red Dead Redemption 2 is the best video game that I have ever played. Red Dead Redemption 2 is set years before the original Red Dead Redemption which was also a 10/10 game. The story follows Arthur Morgan and his journey in the Wild West surviving with the Van De linde gang. While it starts out slow, don't be fooled. The story picks up very quickly and there are a variety of fun things to do. You can chose to be an outlaw, killing destroying and causing havoc or you can be a man with good morals and in the end die as a legend. What the story does so well is that much like in the original Red Dead Redemption, it puts you in the main protagonists shoes in this case Arthur Morgan and his incredible journey. Every moment of the story is emotionally beautiful and incredibly well written. The graphics are the best in a video game that I have seen to date. The idea that this game is boring is incredibly absurd. There is hours of gameplay and content to immerse yourself with whether it be fishing, exploring, hunting, finding Easter eggs, shooting side quests and of course the main story. The idea that "Chores" is embodied throughout the whole game is quite possibly the stupidest thing I have seen. Chores is a choice in this game not something that is forces down your throat. Gun mechanics have also improved along with almost every other old aspect from RDR1. As a player of the original Red Dead Redemption, a game that I truly loved, this game is slightly better. Its story, grasp on reality so much that it seems like a second life and poetic writing combined with the fact that yes, it is extremely fun to play despite what some of these idiots actually think. Red Dead 2 will make you cry, laugh, and play with your emotions like a damn doll. RDR2 is the greatest game that I have played, I have played hundreds of other titles like Zelda, Halo, Mass Effect, God of War, GTA, Metal Gear Solid you name it. THIS IS THE BEST OUT OF ALL OF THEM. I have invested hundreds of hours into it and I will say, this is a once in a lifetime experience that you can buy for 80 dollars or less. Calling it just a game is an insult for it is so much more than a "Game" its a second life and an incredibly well written piece of history. Thank you Rockstar games for a hell of a ride. Expand

With outstanding graphics, story-telling, immersiveness and a detailed nature even Sir David Attenborough would be proud of, Red Dead Redemption 2 takes you on a long journey through the revolutionary times of America where old cowboys suddenly have to face the growing industries and cities.

    RDR2 is a story driven masterpiece and approaches life long questions as friendship, loyalty and anxiety in a great way. It's one of the few true depictions of how human beings should act when things actually go to **** which is refreshing for once. The main group of people is a tremendous mix of interesting characters which grow on you throughout the story. By simple stuff like having a party in your camp, you get to know the different characters and they truly feel human.

    Without spoiling anything in the story, it's great. It's a long narrative that is paced greatly. Even though it does take some time to really accelerate into gripping, once it starts it's absolutely amazing. Certain episodes of the game are more or less Oscar-worthy, with scenes that would be historical would they be shown in a cinema.

    The athmosphere, world and detail is great. Riding your horse can trigger random events which you can enjoy or ignore, the animals behave in a way no game has ever seen before and the world is huge with a lot of detail. It's one of the few open worlds where there's a lot of stuff to do even though it's massive, and a lot of different activities are spread around the world.

    If there's something this game is lacking, then it would be the pretty repetetive gameplay with rather basic gameplay. Playing as Arthur itself does not evolve throughout the games more than receiving new weapons, which is a bit lackluster. However, this is carried by the story which puts you in new situations giving you new type of gameplay with the same gameplay.

    While many people might disagree with this game, especially looking at it from a gameplay perspective, I must say this is a true masterpiece. For me, this is a story, not a game. It's about Arthur's life and the life in America at this time and how the people would tackle it. It's a journey of friendship in the most difficult times which is for once actually displayed sincerely. As a story driven game, nothing currently beats Read Dead Redemption 2, and I believe it will set the bar for future games for a long, long time.

One chapter 5 starts the game becomes just mindless shooting with no real rhyme or reason to it. And I wouldn’t necessarily complain about this if the shooting and cover mechanics were good, but they’re not. The shooting and cover mechanics both feel extremely outdated, clunky, and repetitive.

Yes, there are some glitches. Yes, sometimes you get stuck in an invisible wall or someting like that, but that doesn't bother me and so many others. Why? Because those moments do not stick in your memory as much as all the awsome setpieces, the music, the shootouts, the robberies, the horsebackriding, the bonding with your gang, the hunting, the fishing, the weather, the graphics and so much more. It fascinates me how much details are in this game. Play it, and you'll know what I mean. The graphics are grounbreaking. In 2018, it was the best looking game out there. This game deserves it's attention and all the good ratings. It is a masterpiece in every aspect. The controls can be a little clunky at some times, but that doesn't break the immersion of being a cowboy in the late 18 hundreds.

    (people who give this game a bad rating don't know what they are talking about ;)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is everything we wanted from Red Dead 2 and more.

    The open world map is utterly breathtaking and so rich with content but as a Rockstar production this was to be expected. The surprising part was the emotional rollercoaster we went on with Arthur from start to finish. The story could have gone horribly wrong but as a single player game it is spot on.

    For those saying the story offers very little, you couldn't be further from the truth. Arthur is essentially a criminal and yet you feel empathy towards him throughout. The scene with Arthur riding to Saint Denis and the song Unbroken playing, is nothing short of iconic.

    I have played this through three times and there will be many more to follow. Brilliant

    I honestly disliked this game and I hope to never play it again.

    Now that I got your attention, hear me out:
    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a technical masterpiece in the current generation. The graphics are one of the most visually stunning presentations of the whole franchise. I love how the sun shines through the trees on an early morning. The way you tread through the snow in the dark, and the fire your carry gently glistens on the floor, and how you ride into the sunset as the shadows of the mountains slowly cast upon. Those are small romantic moments that make this game absolutely memorable. The nature in this game is breathtaking, it feels like that this could exist in real life. The character models are also excellently crafted.

    The soundtrack fits lovely into this world with slow guitar solos that emanate a typical westerns sound, but still tends to be unique, and have other lovely tracks that make the whole experience a wonderful journey.

    The gameplay itself is fine. You have a mass amount of activities to do like hunting wild animals, skinning them and trading their fur for items, going fishing, playing poker, chasing bounties, searching for artifacts, feeding your horse, cleaning your horse, buying guns, polishing said guns, maintaining yourself, doing chores for your crew, donating money for your crew, helping your crew, have you noticed a pattern right now?
    This game is pure micromanagement. Why must I clean my gun? Why do I have to skin animals? Why do I have to keep my horse happy? Why do I have to replenish every stat? I'm well aware of the reasons for these, but it feels absolutely tedious having to do all these chores just for a minuscule reward.

    The actual gunplay is equally fine. It doesn't have anything unique to bring across the table, which is not necessarily bad. I, for one, enjoyed the shooting, the cover-system, the use of the Dead Eye (even though I honestly wished they could have improved that better, like regenerating itself without having to use medicine).

    Then there is another problem with this game and it's a major one: the story.

    The story itself is not bad. It's well written, the characters and their development throughout the journey is intriguing. The problem, however, is the story keeps on going on and on, drags itself continuously and when I think I'm close to an end, it just keeps ongoing. I tried focusing only on the main quests and even then I still didn't come to a part where it felt like I was finally coming to a closure. The characters also claim to be one the best bank robbers in the world, and yet half of their missions are botched that I honestly question their abilities.

    The reason I bought this game was because the majority praised the first Red Dead Redemption as one of the greatest games ever. And with the hype surrounding this one, I wanted to be apart of this. I made a mistake with that assumption.

    Just to be clear, the game is good for what it is. It does its job well, however, overstays it's welcome. If you are a fan of the first game, then you will definitely enjoy this game. But if you dislike the Western genre and tried to see this as a part of the GTA experience, then I would avoid this and just buy GTA.

    Good game, unfortunately, not my taste.

    not a single game plot evoked such an ambiguous opinion. for the first 70% of the game amazed me, but everything that happened next shocked me. this game has an unlimited number of pluses, each of the characters is thought out and interesting, which is the most important for me. the idea of ​​the plot is unusual and addictive. Arthur Morgan became my favorite game character. his story was amazing. but in the end the plot simply lost its meaning. every plot twist was stupid and absurd. they made an idiotic character out of Dutch that every action of which had no logical explanation. I was very disappointed, because most of the plot of the game was really interesting. But anyway, I think it's a really cool game.

    Btw, I don’t understand why people complain that the plot is very long, but at the same time they rejoice at the huge open world, when exactly this plot allows you to explore this world.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While it certainly has its issues, Red Dead Redemption 2 is, quite simply put, one of the most astounding games I've ever played. Speaking as someone who'd never played a Rockstar game before (yes, really), I thought it impossible for them to live up to their reputation as a developer. I've rarely been so happy to be proven wrong.

    Let's get the negatives out of the way first, as there's not many of them and they're completely, utterly, stupidly outweighed by the game's positives. The controls and shooting mechanics are a bit clunky, but are nowhere near poor enough to damage the experience, and aren't really any worse than other critically acclaimed games like The Witcher 3 and Shadow of the Colossus. The story is padded, but when the padding is this well written, acted and conceptualised, and actually serves a narrative purpose to boot, it doesn't matter in the slightest. The survival mechanics are perhaps unnecessary, but they are little effort to perform, and are actually quite immersive in my opinion. The only real criticism I have of the game is that [SPOILERS] the Micah twist feels like a missed opportunity, as it would make more sense if he had been a rat from the moment he joined the gang, rather than after returning from Guarma. That's an extremely minor complaint in the grand scheme of things, however.

    The game's positives are too many to list, so I'll try to be as concise as possible. The story is superlatively written and acted by all involved, no matter the size of the part. Arthur Morgan has become one of my favourite fictional characters in any medium, and his arc and ultimate demise is heartbreaking in the best way possible. The game is one of the most breathtaking I've ever seen, with a ridiculous amount of detail and realism packed into every fibre of its visuals. The guns look, sound, and feel amazing to shoot, allowing you to live out your Wild West fantasies in the most explosively entertaining way possible. The numerous side activities are all great fun, but the unquestioned highlights are the stranger missions, which include some the game's best characters, and run the gamut of emotions from hilarious, to horrifying, to heartbreaking. The soundtrack, while perhaps not particularly memorable, does perfectly encapsulate the atmosphere of the final American frontier, and Rockstar's use of licensed music is spot on.

    All in all, this is one of the generation's very best games, and one I'll be thinking about long into the future. Enormous thanks to Rockstar for the surely backbreaking amount of effort this must have required. It was, unquestionably, all worth it. Yee-haw!

    Pros:
    historia envolvente, personagens carismaticos, bem original. Gameplay muito bom, personalização, mapa enorme a fotografica que, talvez, seja um das mais bonitas que ja vi em games. Faz uma intro e conexão muito show com o primeiro game(que no caso vem depois). Jogo enorme!

    Contras:
    achei muitas funcionalidades inuteis... As barras de sangue me confundiram, a forma de cozinhar/criar ficou muito chata, não consegui e nem precisei criar praticamente nada no jogo e foi bem facil de zerar... Não fizerma falta. Muito irritante as vezes você ter que ir de um ponto a outro no mapa. As viagens rapida de trem e carroça são muito asfatadas. O cavalo demora muito a chegar a até voce quando é chamado e outras coisas.

    Não reduzi a nota do game, pq tudo isso foi para tornar o game realista. Eu daria 11 para este game se não tivesse os desfechos costumeiros da Rockstar... Mas ele não deixa de ser 10!

    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]
