    Rockstar Games has done it again. Red Dead Redemption II isn't the next GTA like many people think. It's a whole different ballpark one that Rockstar has almost mastered.

    The beginning is a little slow but after you start picking up the pace in Chapter 2 it almost hurts to have to put the controller down (I mean like seriously YOU CAN INTERACT WITH ANYONE IN THE GAME HOW CRAZY IS THAT)    Rockstar Games has done it again.

    The beginning is a little slow but after you start picking up the pace in Chapter 2 it almost hurts to have to put the controller down (I mean like seriously YOU CAN INTERACT WITH ANYONE IN THE GAME HOW CRAZY IS THAT) Two complaints I have are that general movement especially horse movement is clunky (I can't tell you how many times my horse just flops and I have to walk miles to buy a Horse reviver before it dies on me) and on the base consoles (Ps4/Ps4 Slim, Xbone/Xbone S) graphics are a bit blurry. Gameplay also does rarely gets repetitive at times (Mostly when you have to ride miles to get to a quest)

    Def a buy, def a game of a year but there are just some kinks that prevent me from giving it a 10 it's more like a 9.5/9.7    … Expand

    This game is VERY nice. I spent many hours on half of the story and then stopped to free roam on chapter 4. This is awesome. You can play how you want. The wildlife is rich and the off-story challenges are fun to complete. The game runs smoothly on my Xbox One X. I love the singleplayer part. Perfect in my eyes.

    I have yet to pick this game up, but i played it and its gorgeous. A game like this does not come out too often. Its not for people who are looking for combat, its more about the story, and the world building. Definitely recommend!

    Makes me sad that everyone is blinded by the hype to see that this game is just any other boring, empty open world game. its only redeeming factor is its production value and detail, but then this shouldnt be anything but the best considering the amount of resources and money rockstar has

    I feel as though that this game is definitely revolutionary for open world games. While this game is not for people who can't really get involved into the story. I do suggest that you play the first game so a lot of names and locations will be familiar.

    One of the best games of all time. I'm about 40 hours into it and I've had no problems. Yes, at the beginning the controls can be a little bit confusing, but you can get used to it. It seems like this game takes advantage of the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro's additional horse power and it certainly looks amazing.

    I'm going to upfront about this, Red Dead Redemption 2 is my favorite game of all time.

    I do have some bias being that the wild west is my personal favorite era of history and the 1873 Single Action Army is my favorite gun of all time. I love riding horses in video games when its done correctly and in RDR2 its sure as hell done correctly.

    I agree with a lot of people who say this game is clunky because it does use Rockstar's typical clunky control scheme, something I was personally hoping they wouldn't have. But I have to say that the game itself more than makes up for this. I'm constantly in awe of the game in terms of visuals and opportunities. Rockstar did such an utterly fantastic job on making this game feel truly alive and deep

    I see a lot of complaints about the slow pace of this game and I feel obligated to say if you only like straightforward shallow games with little complexity and a fast pace, this game isn't for you. RDR2 is a game that is enjoyed best by fans of open world games with a plethora of interesting activities to occupy your time with. In my opinion its the little things that count and really get you immersed. The pace is slow but realistically so, its more immersive and realistic than most games and means that there isn't as much action.    … Expand

    This guy called meta_reviewer gives this game a 1 by saying its not as fun as vice city and witcher 3 is the best. Problem is he is a PC player and is salty that this game is not on PC and gave it a 1. This is the reason why this game is getting bad reviews.

    Going back to the game a couple months after release I`ve switched my score from 10 to 7. I think I got why too behind the hype around it. What it boils down to is watch a cut scene, travel somewhere, then kill a bunch of people with not a whole lot of difference in missions throughout the campaign. Still haven`t had the want to replay it like I did for Skyrim, Call of Duty 2, or Borderlands 2.

    As a Rockstar Gamer since GTA2, I have played every one. Each one has made graphical and gameplay enhancements since its last addition. While RDR2 does have an amazing graphic quality on Console, it does have its flaws. The gameplay is stretched when you are riding around on a horse. It is not an instant gratification game, it does take a person who can immerse themselves to truely enjoy this game. There are clipping bugs and collision bugs when riding around in cinematic view. The gunplay is a little clunky and that is due to the auto aim. The camera views make it very difficult to play free aim with no assist. The characters and NPCS in world notice what you do and react to what you do. This is a blessing and a curse. It forces you to try to play the hero, when maybe you would just like to play full bandit. When full bandit and your meter is red, shop owners will and can refuse to sell to you. This is something that needs to be worked out, but values your choices and path you take. The cutscenes and story is something of a blessing. New gamers hate it, as they only want multiplayer. Older gamers praise it, as we know that multiplayer has dominated gaming. The age of a fully developed game sold for $60 with an amazing story and minimal bugs are over. But RDR2 and Rockstar have done their best to go back to that nostalgia. Overall the game is not without its issues, but is one of the best games of the generation.

    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.
