    This game is a masterpiece! The majority of the negative reviews that I've read here seem to have some reoccurring themes. "It takes too long to get places in the game... It's just a bunch of horse riding... It's slow paced... etc." I get it. Yes, the map is huge and it takes some time to travel by horse, but the people who are writing these kind of negative reviews are missing the bigger picture Rockstar has provided. I constantly find myself totally immersed and enthralled by the vast amounts of detail and art that has been captured in RDR2. At no point have I been bored playing this incredible game. People need to take it for what it is and realize what it is not. It is not a fast paced shoot-em-up online game with no soul. It has not been tailored to satisfy the gamers who have been conditioned by the industry to expect instant gratification. If you are that type of gamer, then this game is not for you. Go find a fast paced FPS game and play that instead. Alternatively, if you are the kind of person who can appreciate the concept of working a bit and seeing the fruits of your labor, or if you're the kind of person who can enjoy the journey and not just the destination, then buy this game. I can't recommend it enough. It's incredible.

    If you are one who enjoys open map games a fun story line that takes place in older scenes then I for sure recommend this game for you. A game series that I compare this to a lot is the GTA series. This game also comes with an online mode to play with your friends and other people which in my opinion always make games more fun.

    This is an incredible game. It is extremely detailed and there’s a lot of stuff that you can do in the game. I would recommend thus to anyone. If you like open-world games, you will definitely enjoy this. The download time was long, but it was 100% worth it

    RockStar does it again!

    Wow, just WOW! What an amazing job RockStar did again. All the 9 and 10 reviews online are justified. From the storytelling to the graphics it’s a masterpiece. I’m playing it on Xbox One X which is a true native 4K and helps even more to show the beauty. I’m playing it with HDR off as with it on it appears blown out and poor black levels at this point. But maybe in the future RockStar can fix this issue. But other than that, I’m having a blast. It’s like playing in a blockbuster movie.

    One of the very best video games I've played in the past 20 years. I'm on my third time through. Large collections of guns, wildlife, gangs, scenery, plants, etc. etc. I bought a copy for my grandchildren last year, so I decided to buy another copy for myself!

    I’ve been waiting for this game since the first one came out around 8 years ago. This game is visually breathtaking and the scale is crazy big. So much to do, missions, hunting legendary animals, finishing for legendary fish, rob stage coaches. You name it you can probably do it (perverts will be disappointed)! Online play is now available which extends the lifespan of this game indefinitely.
