    Red Dead Redemption II is one of the most impressive games I’ve most likely ever played. Everything is so individually crafted, and you’ll notice so many tiny details. The story is great, and you will grow attached to these characters. It took me well over 75 hours to complete this game, but that is because I got caught up doing so many little, amazing things in this world that side tracked me from the story. Overall the pacing could have been better, but you won't find a more immersive game than RDR 2.

    amazing game, great graphics (still!), great story, and fun gameplay. However, this game has the longest and most monotonous travel times of any game i've ever played. It's so boring at times i couldn't believe it but the story and voice acting is so good i still have to give it a minimum of four stars.

    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.

    I have spent over 40 hours on the game and I am still only 60% of the way through the campaign. It has amazing graphics, great story, somewhat confusing controls but usually fine, and a massive world to explore.

    They did it again. Another outstanding game that will keep you entertained for hours. Graphics and quality of the game is great and the story line will keep you engaged wondering what will happen next. The side quests are challenging and add to the story as a whole. If you haven't played this game yet, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!

    I'm not someone that typically plays shooters, but I'd heard enough good things about this one that I decided to give it a try. The world looks amazing, and the attention to detail is simply unmatched. The controls are a little clunky at times, but it's definitely worth checking out. The world is massive and has so much to explore.

    Very realistic and immersive. It’s like being dropped into an episode of Westworld. The wanted system can be frustrating and it takes a long time to travel from one place to another (without fast travel). Overall, if you’re a fan of a more realistic and free open world game, pick this up. If you want more structure and upgrade system, go for Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, or Spider-Man.

    Great western story, fantastic open world and graphics. A little slow to start off, but stick with it - it is worth the time to learn all the massive number of details you need to know and enjoy.

    I never played the original Red Dead, and I’m returning to gaming after a long hiatus, so a lot has changed... especially in open-world gameplay and graphics. Red Dead Redemption 2 is unbelievably gorgeous game. I would be happy just galavanting around the countryside living off the land. Oh, guess what, you can! But hey, the various missions, tasks, side hustles the storyline takes you on as well worth it too. Cannot recommend this one enough. However, the amount of controls I needed to remember made it a little difficult to play. I’m sure the average gamer will have no problem.

    Red Dead 2 is a prequel to one of the best games of last gen. Amazing graphics and great story, but clunky controls take quite some time to get used too. If you like westerns, it's a must buy.

    If there is such a thing as the perfect video game experience, this is it. A game for me I thought could not get anymore immersive than “The Last of Us”, but I was wrong. Rockstar did their thing with “Red Dead 2”!!! The story is phenomenal, has you on the edge of your seat the entire time. Makes you invest your time into the story of Arthur Morgan and his gang buddies such as his mentor Dutch van der Lin. The level of detail to this open world game is just beyond words. Wow. I could not be happier with this game. If you thought the first Red Dead, or GTA5 was huge, wait till you play this game. You will not be disappointed, and I haven’t even got to play online yet!!!!

    The long awaited Successor to RDR

    While the game took 8 years to make Rockstar knew that they had to give the fans a sequel worth just as much or even better than the original game. Especially now that games haven't even tried to compete with RDR2 it made sense for them to make a sequel. The western genre until the first game came out was an untapped pot of gold for such a game to compete with Red Dead Revolver. Rockstar has held the crown for 15 years and will probably never be usurped by any other game like it. Just like the original but in every way better RDR2 was almost a close GOTY for me when I played.
