    Visually, this game is superb and the story is much better than most other Rockstar games. However, this game doesn’t offer much freedom and the online stinks.

    SETTING AND ATMOSPHERE:
    Lets start of with the setting and atmosphere of the game. If you are thinking of buying RDR2 then you will already know of the scenery. Typically speaking, video games tend to lie about their graphics in trailers and such. This is not the case because in RDR2 the graphics have come as advertised and dare I say even better than what I expected. As for the    SETTING AND ATMOSPHERE:

Typically speaking, video games tend to lie about their graphics in trailers and such. This is not the case because in RDR2 the graphics have come as advertised and dare I say even better than what I expected. As for the environment, the environment is beautiful. Even after completing the game I tend to find myself coming back here again and again solely because of the environment. The rich towns with people who don't see like NPCs but actual people who do actual things around the towns. You can get a drink, get a haircut, go shopping, or you can just stir up a conversation with a NPC and it feels like you aren't talking to a NPC but rather someone from the age of the Wild West. The dialogue options are fun and add a whole layer to RDR2 that I felt was missing from RDR1 and GTA 5. The open forests and various outdoor things you can find are extremely detailed to perfection. Also add the fact that there are plenty of references, Easter eggs and hidden objects that add another layer to this game. The camp where Arthur stays at is also very well designed and modeled. The setting and atmosphere is the best of any video game I have ever played, seen or heard of.
    10/10

    ATTENTION TO DETAIL

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is probably has the most attention to detail compared to any game available for purchase. The towns, weaponry and some of the characters have been proven to be historically accurate. Most of what you see in RDR2 is historically accurate. The characters also are accurate to the story line and I have never ever encountered a plot hole in the whole game. Every character behaves, responds and even acts in how they are written to. Also add the fact that there are various Easter eggs around camp and town that lets the player figure out more of who a character is, whether it be a main or side or even an NPC. many tend to miss this in their playthroughs and as a result miss a whole layer to the game. I suggest you play the game at a slower pace so you can really engage with the beautiful open world.
    11-12/0

    STORY
    Where to begin. The story makes you Arthur Morgan. I say you as in the player. I felt a personal connection to Arthur that I have not felt with any character from a book, movie, tv or game. The game like the First Red Dead does a more than fantastic job at putting you inside the protagonists shoes. I felt as if I were apart of a gang in the wild west. I felt as if it were me through Arthur doing various activities in the Wild West. Doing quests, buying things, eating things, shooting things even. What a fantastic job by Rockstar and that might be the UNDERSTATMENT of the CENTURY. The game gives you a honor system so you can chose to play as a bad guy or good guy. I started off bad but as I got to know Arthur and what the story about his gang was I began to play more honorably. I definitely made the right choice. Arthur Morgan is a complex character that struggles with his inner demons. He struggles with his troubled past and will do anything for his gang and family. His loyalty to the gang is however questioned more and more as the story progresses. You can see how Arthur cares about everybody in the gang (except Micah). Arthur as the story progresses becomes a more and more complex character. You see a loser and a idiot become a father figure, brother, and in all a hero. The evolution of Arthur Morgan is why this game is so critically acclaimed. How can you write a character so well? I'm really not sure. As for the story itself, the story is extremely well complimented with the attention to detail, graphics and mechanics and more. The story is incredibly well written and it puts you on a journey that you wish would never end. We learn about several members of the gang and who they are, as we get to know them more and more they become our family. The story really picks up mid game where some of the most shocking things happen. No spoilers but there are plenty of tear jerker moments. Its fun, incredibly well written and beautiful. What more could you want. Now for the ending chapter of the story, again no spoilers. This was by far the best thing I've ever seen. No lie, it beats any MOVIE, TV SHOW, or GAME that I've ever played or seen all because of the ending. If you thought that the writing in the early chapters were phenomenal you will be blown away by how much the ending chapters outdo the already flawless beginning of the story. Arthurs character evolution comes full circle, we get to know how much more evil Dutch has become and everything goes ham to the gang. Arthur must make a decision. The ending made me cry harder than any movie ever. Thank you Rockstar for making me laugh, cry, rejoice, envy, and even making me a better person through this story.

    The game is great.
    The creators have put so much effort in making it, there is so many small details.
    The game characters are very "realistic" if I can use this word here. For example when you are on your way to different place with other people the conversation they make is so natural that you can feel like you are in this game.

    the game is good but there is one minus: at first the horse impresses with its intellect. but then it infuriates. it constantly dumps you, constantly slows down especially on the rocks. but basically the game is good. I do not recommend it to those who do not appreciate the plot games and sandboxes.

    I do believe though that the game somehow 'sabotages' itself a little bit - there's so much to do, it becomes cumbersome and it requires a lot of personal commitment if you wish to complete this game. This is true not only about RDR2 in particular, but most open-world games these days.

But it is also filled with evidence of the industrial revolution. This fits perfectly with the story because if it was too modern the story of a small gang trying to make it in the world wouldnt work. The graphics of this game are the best I've ever seen. The amount of detail is insane. Sun shines through the cartilage in your ears, the water behaves like it should, and it just looks all around amazing.

    The story is also very engaging. There is fantastic voice acting that gives the characters true personality and depth unlike anything I have seen in any other game.

    Graphics are great, the lighting, clouds and weather effects makes for some truly magnificent scenery. I have used the photo mode a lot.

    I'm also very impressed by the wonderful music. It is not the typical western music cliche you might expect, but rather fresh new music with just that hint of western that makes it fit perfect to the game.

    The controls are typical Rockstar. They work just fine for me.

    It may be that there are examples of games with better graphics, better gameplay, etc.. and people feel that this game does not deserve 10/10 because of this. But for me the total package is just so far ahead of anything else I have played. It is deeply enjoyable and the rating cannot be anything else than 10/10.    … Expand

    The game itself plays similar to the original, with an enormous, unfolding open-world map. There is so much to do in Red Dead 2 that you can extend the 60 hour completion time to easily 80 hours or more.

    Me parecio una verdadera obra maestra, la historia es muy buena superando a la de su predesesor, el desarrollo de los personajes es tan bueno que hasta los personajes secundarios llegan a ser memorables, el mapa se siente muy vivo con todas las actividades quehay pero hay lugares que se sienten muy muertos abandonados de la mano de rockstar

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Red Dead Redemption 2 is undoubtedly a masterpiece. When you get into the story for the first time, you will notice how impressive the graphics are. The visuals and views from some points are absolutely s running to look at. The Protagonist, Arthur Morgan was introduced in an unfamiliar but really clever way and when I advanced in the story, I felt a strong bond with him. Micah Bell, the Antagonist is quite hatable as a character but he might be one of the most well written characters ever in Games. The story doesn't let you approach missions in a creative way but the game certainly has many unique and cool missions, like flying to a prison with a balloon to rescue John. Other characters like Sadie,John,Dutch,Hosea,Charles and Lenny are memorable. Everything feels alive in the world, but the lack of normal fast travel ( you have to place a camp and then you can normally fast travel ) was not a catastrophe but it should be easier. The ending never felt satisfying for me, but Arthurs Death was executed in a really solid way. It felt different playing as John, but it still was a great Epilogue ans killing Micah and his boys was satisfying. The thing I loved most in the Epilogue is that you could feel Arthurs presence even after his death. The funny things are the early game horse crashes where you literally fly off when you barely brush something at high speed. The Customization in this game is crazy, there are a lot of clothes to buy for Arthur and they are even Temperature Based Outfits, this is honestly great, Hats off to Rockstar! You even have to watch your Weight in this game, it is crazy( in a good way ) ! The Inventory management is good, but I think that it was a bit messy and could have been better. The Gameplay is great and really fits into the Universe of Red Dead but it is a little outdated. And holy smokes this game has an intense amount of detail! The Guns Sound different when in the Mountains and when in the Wild, and there are many more details which are great!

    Verdict: 10/10. A Masterpiece in Storytelling. The Characters are memorable, the world is beautiful and feels alive, the Protagonist and the Antagonist are both really well written and the graphics are absolutely beautiful. The Amount of detail is crazy in this game and the Temperature Based Outfits and Weight too! While the Gameplay might be outdated for some, I was fine with it because it fitted perfectly into the Universe of Red Dead Redemption 2! Its Inventory system is a bit of a mess, but this game is undoubtedly a Masterpiece I recommend to everyone to play!    … Expand

    RDR1 was a great game with a protagonist you really connect with. I enjoyed it. TLOU1 was a really great game with two protagonists you really fall for.

    RDR2 is my all-time favourite game, all-time favourite story and all-time favourite protagonist. You feel everything that Arthur Morgan feels, right up to the end of the story. I expected great things from Joel and Ellie in TLOU2. I couldn’t be more let down.

    These two franchises are an example of what happens when you choose story over all else; and of what happens when you choose agenda over story.

    Probably one of the best open-world games I've played, and with some of the most well-written and well-realized characters to exist in a game of this size. People here seem to be divisive about the linear story, but I prefer it so every story beat can maximize an intended impact as opposed to letting the player "get the good ending."

People here seem to be divisive about the linear story, but I prefer it so every story beat can maximize an intended impact as opposed to letting the player "get the good ending." Although it's an RPG, I think it's a telling sign that they crafted Arthur as the protagonist, rather than having you create your own character. You do have control over whether Arthur is a good person or a jerk but the overarching and heartbreakingly inevitable story is more akin to a season of television. The RPG elements are more catered to exploration and progression rather than control over the story. It makes the world, the characters, and every interaction feel spontaneous and lived in. The open-world made the game immersive, but it was the compelling story that kept me caring enough to continue playing.

    My biggest gripe is the controls haven't really improved since the last game. The cover system is clunky and honestly worthless, and I didn't enjoy how much slower the movement feels compared to the first. The game compensates with a plethora of options for weapon and horse management, though I think stowing the rifles on the horse ended up more of an annoyance than a commitment to realism.

    I also felt that the narrative was just a little too long, both the main story and the epilogue that follows. I understand the need to give players their money's worth, but I felt that the amount of side activities and exploration was more than enough to give the players 40+ hours of gameplay. While the story itself never really dropped in quality, I think a sense of impatience grew stronger because of how it cycles the same gameplay, shootout after shootout. There's a great sense of escalation to the main story, but the final chapters tend to drag out the same point. Similarly, it's a joy to discover how expansive the epilogue is, but it feels 4 hours too long and softens the narrative catharsis that had just happened moments before.

    Still an amazing game even if it kind of overstayed its welcome. It's an improvement over all the other Rockstar games for the most part, and I'll still be playing even after all the missions are done.    … Expand

    It doesn’t matter if you are gamer, a human being, or an alien from another planet; Red Dead Redemption 2 is a title that you just can’t miss. The bar set by RDR2 is so high that even Rockstar itself will probably have a hard time raising it. One of the best releases in the history of digital entertainment.

    While it has some notable but minor flaws, it's hard to argue that Red Dead Redemption 2 is not a masterpiece. The end result of the meticulous detail, wonderful writing and stunning looks is an open world that sets a new bar for believability, and a time and place I can't stop thinking about or wanting to be a part of.
