Why does /v/ actually hate RDR2? Other than "waa waa theres not enough n words"
>>
>>744675157
It's boring as fuck and the gameplay is ps2 tier only with longer, far more obnoxious, animation wankery.
>>
>>744675157
It own /v/'s GotY poll in 2018 don't listen to spamming faggots like >>744675392
>>
>>744675157
I don't hate it. I think the story is full of contrivances and the gameplay is held back by Rockstar's bad design choices.
>>
>I may kill, rob, and kidnap but I will never never never supress the right of women to vote. BLACK LIVES MATTERS!
Great writing.

I liked it overall. The mission design is definitely horrible though and I'm kinda curious to see if Rockstar will actually improve on it at all in GTA 6
>>
it's popular

>>744675157
They're contrarians, you go back to 2019/2020 threads when the game was recent on PC and people were loving it. Those of us that played just moved on because it's a singleplayer game whose quests, world and narrative have been discussed non-stop so what's left is the NPCs who get their opinions from e-celebs and idiots that were filtered for X or Y reason.
t. 100% it, fuck Algernon

other than being on the nose with political shit, it was well made on technical level.
also some story moments were fucking awful but it had some cool ones too. Prequels dont work

its boring AND popular

I had to fight the game constantly because it kept making me put my guns away on horseback.
Also the game itself was meh.
>>
quintessential normie pseudo intellectual slop. great world. great graphics and sound. horrible everything else.
>>
Aside from the graphics and animation I can't really think of anything about it that's above average.
>>
I don’t know about hate, but for me, it’s a game with wonderful world and mostly excellent writing burdened by absolutely and utterly horrid mission design. Fuck, missions are so tightly scripted that even many GTA missions start to feel like sandboxes in comparison, and GTA is already a hyper-scripted game.
>>
>>744675697
>>Guarma was unnecessary and should've been a DLC
Guarma should have been longer imo. It could have been a kino descent into madness chapter with the brutal conditions of the island bringing out the worst in the gang, which could have been a nice transition in Chapter 6. In the final version it feels kind of abrupt how the gang members like Javier are suddenly much more douchey in Chapter 6 than compared to the rest of the game.
>>
Yeah the "woke" things you mentioned. Pretty retarded but lots of people unironically think that way here, so whatever.
Another thing is the overly aggressively restricted mission design. Where if you take a few steps away from the designated path, or take too long to loot, it fails the mission. Kinda jarring contrast from an open world game and I actually agree with this criticism.
Then there's the controls that they feel too slow and not snappy, too much animation lock, and too much realism to the detriment of enjoyability. I kinda disagree, I enjoy that the game is slow and deliberate like that, adds to the immersion. But if I was an ADHD Fortnite kid like 98% of the posters here, I could see I would be annoyed but thankfully I'm not retarded and and I'm able to enjoy comfy kino. I think that's pretty much it. Some people also say the stroy sucks but that's obiouvsly not true so whatever.
>>
Animations took too long. Missions had too small zones. Story was bad in a way that felt like a humiliation ritual. Wasn't arcadey enough. Gunplay was eh. Also no zombie dlc
>>
>>744676231
It's been a while but I think both GTA4 and 5 gives you way more freedom to how you approach missions. Why they needed to make them so damn restrictive I just can't comprehend. I see 0 reasons to do that. They could and should have done better with the missions when it comes to this but I don't think it's a bad game still.
>>
It's an interactive movie, not a game
that's why I hate it
>>
>>744675392
Basically this, especially the last part. They sacrificed pacing for atmosphere.
>>
>>744676727
only the missions
free roam is just as much of a game as any other rockstar slop

It's the 3rd best selling game of all time. It's already marked it's fame and status far after everyone in this thread is long dead.

yes, I would kill people, but I think women should vote, what's so contradictory about that?

Downgrade of Red Dead Redemption and ruined all of the characrers
>>
>>744675157
The plot depends on every character being the dumbest motherfucker who ever walked the earth making the stupidest choices at every turn. The second they act in a normal manner the whole plot would fall apart.
Also sadie is probably one of the most obnoxious girl boss characters in fiction and breaks the thesis that the entire series is predicated on that if you get revenge, you will suffer afterwards. She doesn’t because she is a tuff gurl rawr!
>>
>>744676974
>It's the 3rd best selling game
I bought it back when it released based on good will I had from my time with RDR1. I would not buy a RDR3. I imagine quite a few people share this sentiment.

It has averaged 5 million sales a year since launch. If the game was actually bad and people didn't like it, it wouldn't have those legs years down the road. Your're fucking stupid.
>>
>>744675509
Secretly based because that's the exact representation of modern day WOKE people.
>>
>>744675157
Because the attractive people that bullied them in school like this game and that makes them seethe into oblivion
>>
the writing is woke compared to rdr1

cant imagine the humiliation ritual gta vi will turn out to be
>>
>gameplay
I wasn't a fan, it was awkward to control. The AI is still meh and outside of scripted sections enemies and npcs will often stand in place trading shots instead of trying to find cover. The world looks nice and is really well presented, however events are completely on rails. Even when something happens that you should obviously have input in you cant unless you're explicitly allowed to. See this for an example:
https://files.catbox.moe/vnjso9.webm
It's a scripted bear attack but you cant do anything to intervene. Rockstar expected you to wait a minute for the man to die, until then the bear is completely immortal (it only ended the animation because I killed the npc). It's a constant problem both in and out of story missions.
>story
Again it's well presented, there are some tense and well made scenes, but the substance itself sucks. The main characters aren't interesting and neither is the gang's fall. Thematically it's all over the place since when the writer has a character he really likes (see Sadie) they can just ignore all consequences. The missions are the worst part of it all but I'm sure someone else has already said as much.

>>744675157
It's just boring. The travel is boring. The slow animations on everything are boring. The characters are flat and boring. The whole 'woke' argument wouldn't exist if there was something more to talk about but the game is just too boring. If Arthur did say nigger and shot feminists or whatever that would at least be interesting. As it stands he's just not interesting.
>>
>>744676247
>It could have been a kino descent into madness chapter
Agreed. They could have had it so they get right close to full on lord of the flies but get pulled out of it when they escape the island, but the tension doesn't go away and eventually boils over into what we see happen in Chapter 6.
>>
>>744675157
I honestly haven´t played it yet. Even though i loved the original RDR. Always felt that i´d eventually get the itch to play a western again but IDK, it never happened.

This place will insist it hated Skyrim, GTA 5, and BG3 even though discussion of those games totally flooded the catalogue when they came out.
>>
>>744675157
Hate is a strong word. You can love something and still find faults with it. I loved RDR2 but still admit some aspects of it were retarded af.
>>
>>744684772
Also Fallout 4, Elden Ring, every single game that /v/ loved but pretends to hate because normies also loved it.
>>
HAS ANYONE ITT SEEN GAVIN?
>>
>>744684889
/v/ is just extra bad with this, everything has to be binary with games either being perfect and every complaint about them gets shushed out by something like ”filtered” or ”kys zoomer”, or most of the time, games are just deemed irredeemable shit. Personally I’ve always found that extreme mindset perplexing, because most of my favorite games are flawed gems and I wouldn’t even bother trying to call them perfect to anyone.
>>
>>744683137
It actually is crazy how much they fucked up the demographics of the south in RDR2 when normally wokeness is all about flooding shit with minorities. RDR1 had pretty accurate demographics for the region and time period it portrayed, it was full of blacks and Mexicans like the actual west was. Yet RDR2 depicts a southern US where everyone is fucking white and black people only magically appear to be terrorized by the evil white population.
>>

Stupid ass wild west version of trailer park boys

>>744685517
RD1 had a cynical approach of portraying everyone as a degenerate/retard it was honest about what john was being an outlaw too.
