When does this get fun
>>735115735it doesn't
>>735115735>Autoaim at wildlife for more heckin upgrade points you can spend on improving your cuck chair's statsWowee zowee look at those wood chopping animations!
>>735115735i played it for like 3 hours and i seriously cant tell if I'm still in the tutorial/intro or not. open world sandbox games should give you freedom from the first moment.
>>735115735Can't say, I really didn't like this game. It never felt fun at any point.
>>735115735Fun?
>>735115735just keep holding x.
Most overrated game of all time. Unbearably boring. Utterly mogged by BotW.
>>735115735that one never does
It never gets fun and whoever designed the controls should be shot in the head
>>735115735This shit is basically a tech demo where they focus too much on "muh technology" and forgot to make the game fun
>>735115735the bohemian rhapsody of gaming. since the media established that its "one of the greatest games of all time", the people that played it pretend they enjoyed it to feel part of the group and the people that don't played it just repeat that it's one of the greatest games of all time because other people said so.
>>735117636I consider the intro over once you finish Hosea's bear hunting mission since that's when you get the ability to buy and wrangle new horses
>>735115976FPBP/thread
>>735115735It's not only boring but also has the most dull, faggotary storyline for western and I've seen even modern niggermc westerns doing far well by high margin than this (not that django, we all know it's piece of shit)
It doesn’t. It’s an atmosphere game, like the Witcher 3. You play it for the vibes unironically.
>>735117636The general consensus is start doing side missions when you get act 3.
>>735115735I've tried to get into this so many times but i can't fucking stand it, everything is so slow, everything is so boring, it's horrible!
>>735119410>You play it for the vibes unironically.God I hate zoomers
>not a single RDR2 defenderIf the media wasn't so complicit this game would have flopped. The customers were mind controlled into thinking it was good.
>>735115735Like 5 missions into the Horseshoe Overlook camp. But it's only fun from then until you go to the 2nd camp.
>>735119597Witcher 1 is like that as well. It's technically a shit game but the atmosphere carries it to kino levels.
>>735115735I got to the 2nd camp and quit playing the main story and just ran around hunting and skinning animals to craft shit and fishing. I have like 700 hours in it.
>>735119184Good Lord,this retarded.Just throw him back.
>>735120238>t. tarantinofag mothbreather
So basically its a decent hunting and fishing simulator and shit everything else
>>735115735>Great soundtrack>Great physics>Brutal gore>Lots of customizationThe game is great if you don't have ADHD. I've always wanted a cowboy simulation game. Never quite understood the "It's boring" critique. I mean, do /v/tards actually play Rockstar games for the story? I thought you faggots hated cinematic slop, lol. Meanwhile, I just ignored the story for the most part and went on an adventure, like I do in all rockstar games.Even if there's some merit to the criticism, I don't see how it's any worse than RDR1. They're almost identical games, but one gets a disproportionate amount of seethe. It sort of reminds me of the discourse around Fallout 3 and New Vegas.
I assume you need to play the first one first.
>>735120650If you play 1 first you'll just hate 2 that much more
>>735120650>John doesn't mention his super duper best friend Arthur who saved his life and raised Lenny's son and supported women and trans rights a single time
>>735115735Do yourself a favor and refund the game. Play Call of Juarez: Gunslinger instead.
I do remember going into a saloon once, and then a nigger steals my wallet, and the saloon owner goes "that there negro done stole yer wallet" so I chased him out, coralled the negro, and tied him to a railroad track just as the train was comingbut yeah the game is pure shit, so much wasted potential with on rail moviegame story missions, totally unacceptable, never touched another "rock star" game after it
>>735119462This. Don't get too far in act 3 either. Just set up camp, do the first fishing mission with dutch and hosea, and then just roam. Perfect time to get the legends of the east satchel and knock out legendary animals
>>7351206501 is an actual game, it's fun and isn't bloated to shit
I'm replaying RDR1 for the first time since it was originally released, and it's crazy how much more fun it is than RDR2. Responsive controls, a likeable protagonist, better traversal, Mexico, and a large amount of activities without it being bloated.
RDR1 is when I knew most people in gaming circles had really bad taste>boring as fuck gameplay >that "Rockstar design" quality >John constantly reminding people "Hey I am a bad guy, do you know I am a bad guy, I'm a bad guy"I swear that company lost something going from 6th to 7th gen because GTA4 suffers from the exact same shit. Removing fun for the sake of "quality" and "atmosphere", which I'd care about way more if the game was actually fun to play or I care about any of the characters.
Never.
>>735115735You don't use the word fun around here
>>735120614>Brutal goreThere's blood, not gore. No one gets their limbs or heads blown off or guts spilled out
>>735122840Mexico is really only good for the mexican revolution main questline and Far Away playing as you ride into the country, aesthetically it's pretty miserable and boring
>>735120614my problem with RDR2 isn't the slower placed gameplay but the complete lack thereof in many instanceshaving to pull up a guide and fast traveling around the map to hunt fucking collectibles isn't gameplayhaving to press the joystick forward because a cutscene tells me to isn't gameplayhaving a camp full of NPCs I can freely chat with but can't actually bring on any missions (other than in preset ones) isn't gameplayfucking movie ass game, RDR1 blows it out of the water
>>735115735I could consider going back to this game ONLY if there is a mod that removes all the hold X to something prompts and makes them all instant. Also remove the walk limitation wherever it occurs, let me always run
I had a black autist coworker who had a hot white wife who he got pink eye from after eating her ass. He was extremely looking forward to RDR2 and kept telling me about it for weeks and then it came out and he hated it
>>735122840Mexico sucked because you go there and it feels like you get stuck into tutorial missions all over again (literally one of the first missions is trying to teach you how to shoot)RDR1+2 both fucking suck
>>735115735>When does this get funMain story, neverOnline is completely different though, just go fishing or mess with other players for entertainment.
>>735124752None of this happened
>>735115735when ur married with a wife and kids who doesnt give a shit about you
>>735115735when you stop being a stinky mentally ill indian
This game wasn't boring to me at all, in fact I had quite a lot of fun playing it. Then I finished the story and now I don't like it at all. It's fucking weird. I can't replay it at all, zero replayability. I tried three times and I just get bored. The memes told me this game was super immersive and interactive but it's actually extremely fucking linear and slow.
>>735119184django does cartoonish over-the-top gun violence better than any movie I've ever seen.
>>735124509This is your brain on /v/.
>>735119335>thinking blood meridian isnt in the same category as the "what i got" one
>>735128408Are you stupid? Gore is guts and dismemberment, blood splatters aren't gore
>>735128775Did you forget that you can blow people’s heads and limbs off in this?
>>735124752I believe you.
>>735128775nice bait, retard
>>735124509>There's blood, not goreThere's plenty of things to critique about RDR2, why must you lie?
>>735130512
>>735115735When it starts
>>735115735always funnever ends
>>735119335to be fair, it has elements of both
>>735130668Accurate expression for playing this boring ass game.
>>735115735When you start killing the feminists
>>735130668grim
>>735115735when you ignore the missions to go collect all the legendary fish and animals. I liked the story, but the actual act of playing the missions is pretty tiresome and yet another perfect example of rockstar making open world games but designing their missions to be extremely inflexible linear setpieces
>>735117636the tutorial lasts ~4 hours
the game is great in every aspect instead of the writing.the contrast between rdr1 and rdr2 really highlights the downfall. from dark western to wokeslop
>>735130884the only reason you think it's wokeslop is because the only things you know about the game's story is 4chan posts hyperfocusing and misunderstanding one mission, one side mission, and one character.
>>735121642More games should have learned from this game. Modern games all overstay their welcome.
>>735130951now the same decline in writing was also noticeable from gta iv to v
>>735130997I can agree that GTAV was a step down, but it wasn't because of your liberal based paranoia, it was mostly because they were trying to course correct from 4's generally downer story and went too far in the opposite direction.
>>735115735>funwe don't use that word here
>>735130951what about the mission where he visits a saloon with a black man? inb4 there were black cowboys. there might have been, but they sure as hell were segregated.
>>735131584Dutch has a history with working with those who were discriminated against if we take RDR1 into account, likely because they are easier to manipulate as they seek an ingroup to belong to. but my guess is that they wanted that mission to be slapstick, and having to fight a bunch of racists would probably sour that intent. >inb4 there were black cowboysgotta remember the dutch gang are not cowboys, they are outlaws, a roving gang of murderous thieves. not a bunch of cowboys
>>735131584A "cowboy" is a farm hand and were predominantly brown, black and Irish/immigrants.The lowest of social ladder.And the "whites" who ended up in the west were southerners escaping from the Yankee occupied south after the war.And of course shit was segregated as fuck.But the reason the game is "le woke" is not because Lenny is there, but the modern Kikestar devs implicitly deny any difference in treatment he would have received from the world.If old Rockstar wrote this, you'd have a scene where a bartender or another customer who'd complain about Lenny and Arthur would give him a stink eye until they shrank back.Instead, you have a nig/spic/ and an Injun lusting after white women openly in a bar with white men saying nothing, seeing nothing about it.It's silly.
>>735115735It get real good after arthur rape
>>735130835more like an hour and a half, you can do almost whatever you want right from chapter 2
>>735131910when does he get raped?
>>735131928>roaming around w/o an horse brush to keep yer horses clean
>>735131954optional event, you can find some ugly ass hick in the southern part of the map and he'll ask you to be his friend, if you agree and walk into his house he'll knock you out, with the implication being that he rapes you while you're out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLVT-72w0oo
>>735131982you can give your horse a bath by walking him through a river
Not a game. A boring simulation.
a great gamealso a boring simulation
>>735132087>implicationnever happenedhe is still pure
>>735132917Tell that to Kevin Nash.
>>735133274Wrestler?Did he get raped?
>>735115735Once you get to free roam and retards stop screaming in your ears.
>When does this get funLike with most games nowadays, without mods, never.>Rage trainer>Undead Nightmare mod
if you don't enjoy it for the hunting you will probably have a bad time. mediocre shooter (still better than rdr1's clunky gta animations)
>>735115735The most fun you can have in this game is just riding around killing and robbing people
>>735133619>zombie s|op>funhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PejqfSTNYOA
GTA4 was funThis game is not fun.
>>735115735neverit lacks the sense of purpose of pursuing your former gang members in the 1st oneit's aimless, i had to quit after reaching the first big city
>>735133786the aim is to reach tahiti (the good ending). most people get the bad ending where arthur dies.
>8 years later>still making retards seethecan't wait for gta6
play read dead online. it has more missions in the south west, so it feels more wild west. the various jobs you can take give you purpose (like infinite bounties). besides it's more satisfying to have shootouts with real players instead of npc's. i played on ps4 so hackers were not my problem.
>>735133786>the first big cityThere is only one cityRest are villages with 2 streets
>>735133838your "purpose" is to be the Dutch's lapdogexcept he has no purpose, no great plan, he's leading you nowhereand of course it shows in the gameplay but the result is that it suffers because of it, you keep moving from town to town like a bunch of murder hobo gypsies
>>735134031DIVERSE proto-socialist anti-racist murder hobo gypsies, thank you very much.
>>735134031>murder hobo gypsiesit's because of the women, they make the gang look like a traveling carnival.
>>735119085It has great atmosphere and scenery i think thats undeniable. I had fun with it but it made me roll my eyes so many times and what was the point of Guarma?
>>735134161They are whores, running tail and uncle is their pimp, as written in the first game.In the sequel they are a hardy freedom loving feminists since the original conception would offend moid devs.
>>735128651Yeah i remember the commanche rape warband in rd2
>>735115735>When does this get fun>>735115976>it doesn'tit's slowand tediousand monotonousand gameplay is so shallow and boring that it is almost non-existentRDR2 is a dreadfully boring movie game. Mind-numbingly boring.RDR2 is unironically a game for old cuck-faced millennial manbabbys who no longer have the fast-twitch muscle and rapid hand-eye coordination of their youth, who are embarrassed to play video games in front of their 7 to 14 year old kids.RDR2 is for the most causal of casual gamer. RDR2 is literally the "Participation Trophy" of video games. Rockstar should rebrand it: "RDR2: The Safe Space... For the Aging Cuck-faced Millennial Manbabby"RDR2 gameplay summary:>time to mount my horse>and now I'm just going to mosey on over to there>and then I'm just going to mosey on over to there>and now, oh, howdy folks, don't mind me, I'm just going to mosey on over to there>yikes, a rabbit!>time to do some fishing>ahh, would you look at that wonderful sunset>i hope I don't forget to take a screenshot>welp, saddle up, it's time to mosey on over to there>>you gais, RDR2 is like GTA with horsesYou cheugy old millennial Rockstar fanbois need to stop with that nonsense. At least be honest. RDR2 is like all the excitement and energy of bingo night at the senior center -- "B...6........D...4........A...2....". And this game isn't even a game. It is a movie occasionally interrupted by brief moments to act like a sight-seeing simulator. Worse is that the movie is as corny as it gets.
>>735125826Oh it's true. He had a phd in microbiology or something and then enlisted in the Navy. No clue what his deal was
it's not for you, tourist. get filtered.
>>735134553thisus boomer chads continue having our blasts
Alexa, ride me straight into Van Horn with a pump shottie equipped. We have to get it on.
>>735124752>pink eye from eating assThat must have been some stank nasty swamp ass. He should be playing RDR2 just to keep that hambeast away.
>>735115735When you go back in time about 50 years to when there were still people who gave a fuck about Westerns.
>>735134372I am an old cuck-faced millennial manbabby and this is 100% correct
>>735134632Correct, ~50 years is the average age of Red Dead enjoyers
>>735134372>>time to mount my horse>>and now I'm just going to mosey on over to there>>and then I'm just going to mosey on over to there>>and now, oh, howdy folks, don't mind me, I'm just going to mosey on over to there>>yikes, a rabbit!>>time to do some fishing>>ahh, would you look at that wonderful sunset>>i hope I don't forget to take a screenshot>>welp, saddle up, it's time to mosey on over to there
>>735130951I dropped the game after it had me kill random animals to sell their skins and upgrade my gear, and then made me travel with an injun to track down poachers who were killing random animals to sell their skins and upgrade their gear, and then when I chose to spare them it told me I was being a piece of shit for not murdering them right there. The game's story was written by fags
My only real gripe about the RDR2 gameplay is the guns aren't autistically well represented enough. Whats the point of revolvers if I can just holster it, unholster and its full ammo again? Gunslinger means you draw more guns after you shoot your 6. I would love it to be even more hardcore, istead of the cringe GTA shooting.
>>735134372i get it that you are overblowing this for a comedic effect, but only in the camps have i felt frustration due to the forced walking, even though i get why they did this (dialogue triggers)
>>735115735Why does the game unequip or change to a random assortment of my weapons whenever I get off my horse? I still don't understand how thats meant to work
>>735134914>hmm, what's in this house, anything good?>hold x to open cabinet door slowly>nope nothing here>hold x to open other cabinet door slowly>nope nothing here>hod x to open other cabinet door slowly>ah look, a can of beans>hold x to slowly grab can of beans and put in pack>press inventory button and navigate to find the beans>press x to slowly eat can of beansriveting stuff
>>735134885at least we got qickdraw and revolver fanning (in rdr1 you could fan only in duels).
>>735115735
>>735135019Yeah... it got some cool stuff, I did miss hardcore mode from RDR1 though.
>>735135007again, you are exaggerating. besides you have so much money that you don't need to forage for food. i prefer it over rdr1 where we didn't have to eat, and you had only money to look forward to as loot (which in turn made hunting and gathering completely useless, save for the challenges)
>>735134985that's just an unintended effect of devs being retarded and technically not a bug so they'll never fix it
>>735135007Stop stealing shit, you nigger
>>735135204train robbery, jail breaking, protection rackets, bank robbery all good, but don't you dare rob the beans!
>>735115735Is there a mod to kill prairie niggers?
>>735135268>Dozens of ways to make money legal and illegal>dis nigga has to boost BEANS
>>735135121hardcore mode came after rdr2 released tho
>>735135285>prairie niggers?wat?
>>735115735If you can’t find any enjoyment as soon as you can freeroam. Just go play something else
>>735115735>>735115976I've probably put thousands of hours into RDO ove the years off and on playing with various friends. He's not wrong. It's a game that makes you wanna go outside. You won't, but it definitely makes you think about it.The amount of detail is pretty cool, but if you go from literally any other game into this one, the sheer amount of clunkiness takes a hot minute to get past.
>>735134372not the mention the whole "eagle eye" concept is ridiculous slop for console peasants who can't aim.
>>735115735Never
>>735135580This
>>735135438chugs, tanto.
>>735135285they are protected story NPCs, like the kids in St.Denisyou also can't kill your crew or Micah
you know what would be fun, from a gameplay perspectiveif the 13 people i just shot in 7 secondstook 4 and a half minutes of watching the same looting animation just to collect 4 bullets and half a meals worth of money
>>735136769They improved that in Online.But not in single player, lol.But guys like this don't care >>735130780
>>735136769>>735135007it's not an RPG, "gamer" brostop looking for trash in random dead bodies and drawers
