Was able to essentially get two versions of this game. This game still looks real good, despite it being 15+ years old

This is basically grand theft auto Wild West style. You can follow the story mode or you can venture off into the world to hunt or do side missions and there is multiplayer in this game as well. I don’t think you can get bored of this game

Honestly probably the best video game I've ever played. The level of detail in this game is incredible. Moving around the map can become tedious but they want you to live in the game and there's enough detail that you can do that.

The world is beautiful and gritty, taming a wild horse while there's a thunderstorm is spectacular and fighting a bear with a knife is a rush. The characters were only ever going to be as developed as the staff at Rockstar. A grown man seeking redemption only at death's door grew up to late.

A little slow to start with, but after you understand with the environment, mechanism and all the little side stories, you learn how much development and effort were put into this game. Definitely one of the best game of the year.

The Wild West sandbox returns, better than ever!

The original Red Dead Redemption was a masterpiece that captured the style of classic western films while serving up a fun amount of action-filled gameplay, all told through a powerful and emotional journey of its key protagonist, John Marston.
RDR2 dials back the clock 12 years, to long before John embarked on a quest to save his family. Arthur Morgan takes the lead this time around, in the final days of the Dutch Van Der Linde gang as they struggle to find their place in a world that seeks the end of all outlaws.
The gunplay is as solid as the original Redemption, now boasting a wider selection of weapons, all with extensive customization options that allow for both greater firepower, as well as giving players a personal touch to their arsenal. Additionally, RPG elements allow for Morgan to grow stronger and become a better gunslinger, with a variety of options that can boost the player's skills to new heights.
Hunting also returns, and is far more fleshed out than it was in the original RDR. With nearly 200 kinds of animals to hunt and kill with your extensive collection of weapons, collecting pelts and other animal parts offers all the thrills of real-life hunting without any of the risk or harm to actual animals. Furthermore, the numerous upgrades that can be unlocked by claiming intact pelts will entice many players to spend hours in the virtual wilderness.
RDR2 still suffers from some of the technical hiccups that plagued its predecessor, such as glitches and touchy controls. Thankfully, there are many options to tailor one's experience and make the game more manageable. Regardless, the masterfully-written story and solid gameplay will surely consume many a player's time for weeks to come.

Red Dead Realism

Plain and simple - RDR2 is one of the most intricately built open world currently. Does this mean it’s the best, or the most fun? Well, that mostly depends on your preference in games. Though this one seems to be splitting the most hardcore of gamers. For me, this brand of immersive storytelling mixed with absolute freedom to find the most obscure scenarios - R* style. Yes, this game is a bit slow to start, with chapter one being mainly a tutorial, then chapter two opening up the world to the freedoms of exploration. (I found a house of corpses, a death cult of sorts, in my first hour roaming the open world. The activities are plentiful and deep in their systems, which is also drenched in realism behind the motivations. These certain programmed actions and systems are seemingly what is splitting the crowd. Some wishing this was more chaotic and action driven like GTA, but instead is more paced and steeped in absolute atmosphere. Truly putting you in the trials and tribulations of the old west. But that’s not to say the action isn’t abundant, there is still plenty of set pieces full of fun. My only gripe in gameplay is the old RDR mechanics, just slightly tweaked. Learning the laws of the layout was something that took a moment to perfect, but smooth once things get going. While I’ve mentioned this game may not be for everyone, mostly due to pacing and style of mechanics behind the immersion, I would highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a great open world experience. Just expect to play through the paces of exploring the old west - well, a bit more than just the west this time around.

The graphics, storyline and sheer enjoyment of playing this game. This game is a masterpiece. It allows the player the joy of having mission based objectives, free roam and the storyline is amazing. I have played this games for over 6 months and not tired of it. This will be a game I play over and over again.
I cannot wait for a RDR 3…..

While RDR was always fun, I never really played it all the way through.
RDR2, on the other hand, has so much packed in that you will keep busy for quite a while.
Loved it!
