Should I give it a try? Its on sale on steam.
no i haven't even finished this slop and will never fucking buy open world games ever again
>>738945231I dont like open world very much, but I would mostly go straight to the main story
>>738945156Yes, I think it has analytical value. You should play it just to see what’s wrong with modern AAA game design and writing. The game is also very polished and has high production values, so it will be a relatively smooth experience and you will find some enjoyment.
I liked it, but wish the progression had more depth. Hunting and getting the high tier pelts is fun tho. Fuck panthers
Even 8 years later it's still more impressive than 95% of games
>>738945156yeah, ignore the seething. It's really not that bad.
>Reddit Dead RedemptionWhat do you think?
>>738945156>Should I give it a try? Its on sale on steam.now is a better time than any as theres a good amount of mods that improve euphoria physics and expand on other game mechanics
How long does it take to get past the intro? I just wanna be out in the open world and kill people
if only this faggot game had realistic combat difficulty where you die from 2 shoots.
>>738946859>How long does it take to get past the intro?there are mods tht let yuou skip it
>>738947002mods
>>738947085im not messing with no goddamn mods
>RDR2modsbasically modstl;dr mods
>>738947002start a new playthrough every time you get shot at
>>738945156Steam sucks
It has too much stuff, like way too much, I felt so overwhelmed that I stopped playing and went back to replay RDR1
make sure you get the ultimate edition. you get the most badass jacket in the game. if you find yourself enjoying the game you will regret not getting it.
>>738947264and then you have rdr1 where hunting, gathering, looting and exploration are completely pointless. even the shooting is boring as fuck.
>>738947264I had the opposite experience. During free roam, there is nothing to do. It's just one giant empty expanse of nothingness.
$15 is insane amount of value for the content even if you get filtered by the slower gameplay/story. If you're able to get enjoyment just from exploring the map and enjoying the ambient music and running into all the wildlife you can easily put 200+ hours in a single playthrough. If you like westerns even a little bit you get to rp as your favorite movie characters
>>738945231fpbp
>>738945156Get the first one instead. This one is such a fucking slog, bunch of cinematic shit. Takes 2 hours to finally have the freedom to actually explore/play the game
>>738948934>filteredIt's a mindless third person shooter where you mow down thousands of people every mission and the story relies on you ignoring the excessive violence for it to be taken seriously. Why are you pretending like RDR2 is some highbrow art piece?
>>738945156Yes. The world is the real showcase. The story is good but its very on rails like GTA V and can be boring. The world is still impressive as fuck. You have the freedom to hunt and just live like an outlaw cowboy. You will be impressed every 2 minutes by some insane level of detail its really quite impressive
Farting Dead Redemption will never be close to The Dollars trilogy in storytelling.
>>738945156The game world is a very impressive technical and artistic achievement. Visually and musically the game is wonderful. The mechanics are clearly half-baked though. Covering your face to avoid bounty doesnt seem to work, witnesses to crimes spawn out of thin air, the loading screen tips for the inventory are just flat out incorrect - it tells you to drop extra items to make room, but the only limit on your inventory is how many of a specific item you can stack. There's no weight or slot system or anything. There's a huge slice of the game dedicated to gear and camp upgrades that basically don't do anything. Morgan keeps fucking with all his gear on the horse for some reason when they reallY could have just not had him fucking do that STOP PUTTING YOUR RIFLE AWAY YOU FUCKHEAD.The story is a very high effort execution on a plot that makes almost no sense and there are several new characters who really shouldn't exist since they suck up all the air that could've been used by returning characters (looking at you, Sadie). Also Arthur's bandoliers and holsters are all fucked up which is a weird oversight for a game that's otherwise so detailed. His holsters don't fit any of the automatic pistols so he winds up looking goofy in cutscenes if you keep them equipped and his bandoliers float in space if you aren't wearing a jacket. Bugged the shit out of me. American Venom is probably my top videogame track ever tho.
>>738950814>orse for some reason when they reallY could have just not had him fucking do that STOP PUTTING YOUR RIFLE AWAY YOU FUCKHEAD.they got this stupid shit from western movies, before people dismount they'd pull a rifle or a shotgun from the saddle but it's not a movie, its a game and they're different.
>>738950814Oh, and I forgot the missions are so on rails that they break over really dumb shit. Like I tried to infiltrate a building through the window instead of the first floor door and got kicked back to a checkpoint.In another mission I tried to lasso a bounty target but the game just turned off the fucking fire button if it was over the target because I had to chase him a certain distance for the cutscene they wanted.In another mission it was required that I had a shotgun. Instead of just making sure I had one equipped, the game downgraded my pump action to a double barrel and the gang acted like they were doing me a favor for putting garbage in my shotgun slot. The railroading is absolutely stupid in how strict it is.
Extremely retarded complaints: the thread. Go buy it OP, getting lost in the world is a magnificent experience.
It's boring as fuck, I didn't go past chapter 4, and I've tried a few times. I wish I could refund it to get Redemption 1 for free. 100%'d that game on 360 and would love to do so again, but Xenia really can't run it, and I'm not paying 20-30 dollars for what shouldn't be more than $5.
>>738949894people don't like the game because of the slowness of everything and that it's boring to them, that's literally just what getting filtered means doesn't mean it's highbrow. You're coping if you think rdr2 isn't one of the more "artful" games tho
>>738951326Hop into carriage you need to drive to objective. Moment you move the carriage breaks and you go back to checkpoint.
>>738951482>XeniaI thought performance and stability was basically fixed for emulators? i used the playstation one though
>>738951638They don't like the slowness because the realism is thoughtlessly tacked on to this run of the mill action shooter. Making the looting animation 10 seconds long doesn't really add anything. There is nothing artful about this safe, overproduced, design by committee movie game.
>>738949268first one feels like GTA game
>>738952518ok
you get to see Abigail's soles when she's sleeping
