    I've felt compelled to create an account just to review this game. Never have I felt a game's reputation is so undeserved and simply there because it's Rockstar, because it's a huge world and because it's a graphical masterpiece.

Never have I felt a game's reputation is so undeserved and simply there because it's Rockstar, because it's a huge world and because it's a graphical masterpiece.

    It's boring as [choose a four-letter expletive]. I don't want to clean my horse, or go through three drop-down menus to find something that restores my stamina core or my horse's stamina core. I don't want to be 'wanted' as a murderer for an event that nobody even witnessed in the middle of nowhere. It doesn't make sense. It's frustrating in how unintuitive everything is. From the controls to the game mechanics. Want to sell some of your invent to make some cash, well, you better get ready to take a four-hour horse-ride in cinematic mode to get to someone who will buy something off you that's supposedly of high intrinsic value like a legendary bear pelt. You can talk to every NPC, isn't that amazing? Erm, no, two sentence non-sequitur conversations where you have to defuse the situation if you dare get within six feet of the person you're talking to. Maybe Rockstar was onto social distancing several years ago. Well done to Rockstar for predicting social distancing and projecting it via time travel into the Old West of 1899.

    I'm done with this game and I barely started it. Please, save your money. Do not buy into the hype and do not buy this game with good money.

    I'm usually a huge fan of Rockstar games but not this one. There are far better open-world games where interactions with NPCs are far more meaningful and side-missions are more interesting than a cinematic set-piece with a bear after five minutes of following clues and a scent trail. There are also far more interesting action-adventure games, you know, the ones with action...and adventure... Not just a big world and impressive graphics.    … Expand

    I don't normally play video games that are heavily story orientated, as I can almost always get a much better story experience from a movie or a tv show, however the character writing and artistic choices this game makes combines the developing characters slowly building over a long period of time, such as tv shows like breaking bad, whilst combining the cinematic scope found in movies.I don't normally play video games that are heavily story orientated, as I can almost always get a much better story experience from a movie or a tv show, however the character writing and artistic choices this game makes combines the developing characters slowly building over a long period of time, such as tv shows like breaking bad, whilst combining the cinematic scope found in movies. This also has beautiful art inspired by paintings of that era with sprawling landscapes and stylised skies. This is combined with a fun combat system, which although could have done with more options provides a great amount of pleasure to be had. It isnt quite as expansive of an open world as a game like breath of the wild, where your choices feel truly individual to you, however if you have played that you know that the story kinda sucks and thats where this outshines it. In conclusion its very hard not to love this game with its options for hunting, crafting gunplay etc and provides a truly immersive and hard to hate world alongside realistic characters and writing. This is what video games are all about and is one of my favourites in this ever changing art form.… Expand

I personally didn't like the first chapter, but I kept playing and I was greatly rewarded with the chapters after chapter 1.

    About the controls. Yes it feels slow, but what did you expect? It isn't a Call of Duty game or a modern shooter. You can't run around with the pace of a Ferrari, it is realistic.

    About shooting. I understand why people didn't like the shooting, I agree with the auto-aim problem which is too much. But it has everything that a good western shooter should have.

    About the reviews of the empty world. For those with a review about the empty world, you shouldn't have bought this game. IT IS A WESTERN, what the hell did you expect? It isn't 2020, in my opinion it has the perfect amount of places to visit things, things to do etc. In about every mile or so you have a stranger mission or an easter egg or something like that. Also the amount of people say that you have to travel too much is just absurd. Ofcourse it takes a long time, but in that time you can truly appreciate the details and the amazing graphics of this game.

    This game is the best you can get for a western and a game in general, go and purchase it you won't regret it.    … Expand

    In my opinion, Red Dead Redemption 2 is quite better than its predecessor because a specific reason: Arthur Morgan.

Arthur has, in my opinion, a huge charm and personality, even more than John Marston had in the first game. Arthur’s development is magnificent, making the player to empathize with him during his evolution along the game. His relationship with the members of the Van der Linde gang is really interesting, with some funny situations.
    In order to avoid spoilers, the main history starts pretty well, but during the middle chapters lose some interest. Despite this, the game has a good rhythm until finished it.
    The world is huge, full of missions and things to do (hunting, fishing, bounty hunter, side quests, etc.). The level of detail in the graphics is overwhelming. Maybe one of the best in all the generation. Do not forget to mention the soundtrack, which is pretty good, especially in some emotional moments.
    The game gives you the chance to play it in 1º or 3º person. In my case, I only played in 3º person, so I can’t say a lot about the other mode. Arthur’s moves are very realistic, as well as the horses he has. The shooting and duels phases are very dynamic, but I found some fails in the cover system. Like in the first game, the Dead Eye system will be our best friend during these situations.
    It is a spectacular game, which will delight all the fans and a great chance to get in the Wild West created by Rockstar.    … Expand

This is obviously not an uncommon story to tell but in this medium it creates the best piece of video game entertainment I have ever experienced. In terms of storytelling, this simply ranks in my top 3 including movies, tv shows, and video games. No video game can ever top this. Since finishing I have tried to find other video games that can fill the hole that’s missing now. It can’t be done. It’s the perfect setting and perfect execution.

    I have never been a big western fan, but Red Dead Redemption was able to change this. Thanks to the great atmosphere, easy to handle but more and more challenging gameplay and a thrilling story which ended for me perfectly. Unfortunately, the second installment of this game cannot hold up with this. It is bigger, more detailled and looks better, but never judge a book by it's cover. To sum it up and give a better overview, I'll give you the pro's and con's.

    Pro's:
    - huge world to discover
    - plenty of missions and side-missions
    - fantastic details
    - vivid environment
    - short loading time in the beginning, no more loading after this
    - some missions are really unique

    Con's:
    - travelling takes way too long, becomes annoying at a certain point
    - no quick-travel given, buyable extra but the game won't tell and if you are over 50% of the story you cannot buy it anymore
    - story underwhelming and predictable
    - story takes too long and is unneccessarily stetched
    - 75% of the missions end up in a shooting and are lacking of variety
    - Dead-Eye mode completely needless, aiming is easy and AI not very clever
    - no developement in difficulty during the game
    - roleplaying elements, such as choosing the right clothes, develop your horse or gain more stamina are completly non-relevant for the success in the game
    - variety of weapons is small
    - always enough money to buy everything you need, makes money pointless
    - if you get attacked on the road by thiefs and kill them while defending, there will be a bounty on your head
    - controls feel unprecise in hectic gun fights or if you need to run and hide
    - the ending just doesn't make sense

    I can only go with many people here, but also friends of mine and say that this game is a disappointment. The high ratings from critics are for me not really comprehensible. RDR2 is a good game, but by far not close to a game of the year candidate. It is not inventing anything new and does not try to. Bigger is not always better. I am giving the game a 7.9 and therefore 7/10 here, because it has not earned a 8/10 rating.    … Expand

The tragic story of Arthur Morgan and the Van Der Linde gang was told so masterfully. The game is open world, but you can pretty much play RDR2 as a linear game and just focus on the main and stranger missions. My suggestion is to play all the stranger missions, except for the collection missions, because the stranger missions do come into play and tell you more about Arthur himself. Read Arthur's journal occasionally after each mission to know what Arthur thinks about everything that happened. Play as honorably as possible as it is meant to be played. But if you choose to explore the open world, prepare to get your minds blown as it throws all other open world games out of the water. There's so many side content that it's best to find it all online. The story is where it's at for RDR2. One of the best narrative games, period.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a terrible game playing. The movements are really slow. I wouldn't say it's a realistic game but too complicated and restricted. The missions are horrible, starting a mission takes too much time. You have to ride back and forth a long way on your horse and there is a cutscene for every little thing. Some of the cutscenes are useless. The missions isn't even worth completing since you just have to get on your horse after and ride again somewhere else to start a repetitive mission and boring cutscene. Every move you do results in a cutscene. The character has more cutscenes or need to make a movement to interact with an object. Like when sitting, mounting your horse or walking inside a store. The movements could be better and faster. Many missions were boring and not adding anything to the game. How is fishing, taking wildlife photography or help some circus folks catching animals relevant to being an outlaw. There are not really any rewards for completing a mission. You earn money that you end up losing because Arthur dies. There ain't even anything good to spend money on in this game. The weapons are bad in combat and you can't ride fast then the npc can't catch up. I hate that you have to wait or follow some slow npc around the whole game. While playing a mission i rode the horse wagon a little bit in front of the npc who hat to sit in the wagon with me. Then the npc couldn't walk a few steps to get in so i had to start the mission over. The npcs just ruin the game for you. I never felt like I was playing but just waiting for npc. I don't get how enemies can survive three or four shots from weapons. The game is reliable on doing it exactly right or it gets broken.… Expand

    There’s really a lot to review here, so I’ll use a bullet-point format to cut out the fluff:

    GOOD: —Story. Very well-written, I cared about the characters, it started and ended well, and there wasn’t a big drop off in the middle. It maintained an excellent air of tension in the face of decline. Epilogue Part 2 was really, really, really excellent. —Graphics. Beautiful game. —Music.

    GOOD:
    —Story. Very well-written, I cared about the characters, it started and ended well, and there wasn’t a big drop off in the middle. It maintained an excellent air of tension in the face of decline. Epilogue Part 2 was really, really, really excellent.
    —Graphics. Beautiful game.
    —Music. Well done.

    However, even with these good points, my score was going to be a 7 (until I hit Epilogue Part II, which I just loved and brought the game back up to an 8). I was going to give it a 7 for these reasons:

    BAD:
    —Really clunky, awkward controls. In the balance between ‘cinematic’ and ‘precise’ movement, the game is too far towards ‘cinematic’. They try to correct this during a gunfight by using the world’s most aggressive auto-aim adjustment, meaning you only have to aim within ten or fifteen degrees of a target and your cursor will snap right on him. This makes the game a smidge too easy when you’re winning, and frustrating when you’re losing. The most common reason I died was because I was mashing R1 trying to get behind something as cover and instead of doing that, my character was gracefully and cinematically adjusting his weight, a movement that lasts the length of a solar body’s rotation around the center of the universe.
    —The characters chatting as they rode their horses to the next objective. Look, this is just a personal preference, but I listen to sermons as I play games, and having the characters constantly chat at me meant I couldn’t focus on the sermons. I would have preferred it if they had cut out making me ride my horse to the objective entirely, and instead had made all the dialogue part of a single cutscene and showed a scene of us riding to the location.
    —As you’re following your party to the next quest, even if you cut to Cinematic View to engage the auto-drive (which is not explained well in the game btw), you have to hold X so your horse will keep going. My thumb is stronger, and for that I owe you one, Rockstar. Now, if only I needed a strong thumb ever.

    So, it was a 7, but then Epilogue Part 2 happened, and now it’s an 8. Play the whole game just to play that epilogue. You won’t regret it.    … Expand

    Rockstar made one of the best game in history. In this game all good: history, gameplay. If you have PlayStation 4, you have to pay Red dead redemption 2.

    It's a beautiful game. Rockstar have made a great job in RDR2. The caracters is incredible and the gameplay is fantastic. The only criticism about this game is the story is linear. I cannot make important decisions in the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is slowly paced in the beginning but it needed it to build the characters that are in there and I didn't think that it was a bad choice, it's intriguing and phenomenal. the characters are absolutely amazing and act in a realistic manner (especially in that setting). The only problem is that Ch.5 felt like it was out of place. the gameplay structure are repetitive and boring sometimes and it goes like this: Riding for minutes--settle in and sneak around--someone miss up the plan-- shooting starts-- Riding for minutes again to escape. This game execution is best I've played in terms of open world aspect.… Expand

    Absolute masterpiece of a game. Not perfect though, combat is super repetitive and can get boring, but the story is amazing, Arthur Morgan is probably the best written character I've ever played.
    Soundtrack is great, graphics are mindblowing, the amount of detail put into this game is incredible.

    Wow. I cannot say enough about this game. I don't even know where to start. For me, RDR2 is the greatest game I have ever played in a lot of ways. Here are a few:

    Characters/Story: I'll start out by saying this - yes, the story is a bit predictable but only because if you played the first RDR, you know where some of these characters end up. (I'm only mentioning this because I've seen    Wow. I cannot say enough about this game. I don't even know where to start. For me, RDR2 is the greatest game I have ever played in a lot of ways. Here are a few:

    Characters/Story: I'll start out by saying this - yes, the story is a bit predictable but only because if you played the first RDR, you know where some of these characters end up. (I'm only mentioning this because I've seen quite a few reviews harping about the story's "predictable" timeline). And while I agree that it's pretty easy to see where it's going by the time you're about halfway through, it's how we get there that defines this campaign's prestige. I've never been so engulfed by the main character(s) of a video game and their stories than I was with Arthur Morgan and the rest of the gang. Their histories, friendships, inside jokes, and personalities are all encompassed throughout the story, and it all culminates to a fitting, beautifully written ending in the final chapter. I felt like I was really a part of this gang and it brought out real emotions when something happened, good or bad. The cut scenes are breathtaking, and sometimes it's easy to forget that you have a controller in your hand because of Rockstar's commitment to a cinematic experience. The story is rich from start to finish, and even after hundreds of hours playing, you will only be wishing for more.

    Setting: I'm sure everyone has heard about the size of RDR2's map by now. And the beauty. So I won't go on and on about it. It's huge. It's breathtaking. It's gorgeous. And at times, it's even terrifying. No other game lives up I will promise all new players one thing. You will have AT LEAST one (probably more) moment during your campaign, where you stop for a minute or two and just say to yourself "Damn". For me, it was the first thunderstorm I witnessed while I was roaming the plains and the first time I trotted into bustling Saint Denis.

    Details: Pay. Attention. It's not super critical to the advancement of the main plot, but you WILL be rewarded with hints, theories, and simply entertaining interactions if you pay attention to things like background conversations, posters on walls, animals in the distance, etc. For example, there's a background convo in one of the towns where 2 neighbors argue about a barking dog that makes me crack up every time. If you're one that likes to flesh out little details like this, you will be rewarded!

    I could go on and on. I've already remembered several things to add to the paragraphs above, but for the sake of time and character-length I will leave those things for you to discover. I will just leave you with 7 simple words that my best friend gave me almost 2 years ago. YOU SHOULD BUY RED DEAD REDEMPTION TWO. The world is vast and daunting at first, but if you're up for the challenge, this game will not disappoint.

    Ох, как же много я бы хотел о ней сказать...Постараюсь впихнуть все свои наигранные 430 часов в небольшой обзор.

    Декабрь 2018 года я узнаю о новой игре от Rockstar Games про дикий запад. И вот дождавшись релиза на боярской платформе и собрав новый ПК, я приобрёл на тот момент уже признанный шедевр.
    С первых часов игры я понял, что меня ждут незабываемые приключения. Я восхищался всем: замечательная кинематографическая графика, потрясающая постановка, звук, огромный, хорошо проработанный, и, наверное, лучший открытый мир на сегодняшний день, ну и конечно сюжет. Складывалось впечатление, что я смотрю фильм Квентина Тарантино, все сцены поставлены очень качественно. Всем участникам банды предоставляется время, вы быстро запоминаете их имена. Артур Морган стал моим любимым персонажем игр и остаётся им до сих пор. Никаких уровней, никакого гринда, игрок может просто проходить сюжет, не отвлекаясь на квесты и прочее. Но я так делать не советую, квесты и активности в открытом мире получились не хуже основный сюжетной линии.

    Нельзя сказать, что игра очень динамичная, это не GTA, где бесконечные перестрелки и погони. Как раз наоборот. Меня она зацепила своим размеренным и неторопливым геймплеем и повествованием. Игра не притягивает вас сочащимся со всех щелей экшеном и нереальными спецэффектами, тут фишка как раз в обратном, в реальности происходящего. В мире всегда что-то происходит, здесь всё ведет себя очень аутентично. Я просто офигел когда узнал, что у каждого горожанина есть свой распорядок дня.

    Так же немного добавлю о Red Dead Online. Особо там делать нечего: небольшой сюжет, квесты, фарм, баги и читеры(немного, но есть). Одному играть быстро наскучит, но если есть тот, с кем вы собрались покорять дикий запад и выявить кто из вас лучший стрелок, онлайн режим может доставить удовольствие.

    И что в итоге? Red Dead Redemption 2 - это самая красивая, самая продуманная, самая взрослая игра Rockstar. Игра, которую без преувеличений можно назвать искусством. Такие игры выходят раз в 5-10 лет, нельзя пропустить такое.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm gonna be honest, I was undewellmed by this game. When I first started playing I looked at the beautiful landscape and I was just blown away, but then i started playing the game. There are alot of things that are just annoying like how you could kill somebody when there's nobody else around and somehow somebody will still see you, or how if you try to take a slightly different approach during a mission you fail for some stupid reason. The missions were OK but nothing to be amazed with and exploring the open world was fun for a bit but eventually becomes extremely tedious. The most fun thing to do in the game was to go hunting and try to sell things you catch but you get so little money you can't afford anything. The best way to make money was to play the missions which give you enough to buy pretty much infinite ammo making every other way of defeating enemies pointless.
    Arthur is a pretty good character and I do like the whole setting on American West but it should have been either a purely linear game or a purely open world game but instead it jumps between the two which just ruins the while point of having a massive world and ruins the story.

    Its a good enough game to be above average (for me a 0 is equivalent of staring at a wall, 5 is average and 10 is flawless masterpeice) but i was really expecting to like this game more.    … 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]
