    At first I thought the game was boring in the beginning. But as you get further into the game and story, it gets better. It’s a beautiful and fun game.

    It is entertaining enough

    Having not been much aware of the original, I thought I’d give this a try. Graphics on the Xbox One X are amazing, and I didn’t have excessive load times or any graphics issues at all during gameplay. My issue came down to the gameplay itself. The control scheme, while adequate, had to cover too many activities and options, there was just too much to do. The biggest frustration for me was the length of time between missions or objectives-you spend a lot of time walking or riding your horse across the map for only a short time of action and it’s not always clear what you are actually supposed to do once you get there. The game gives you the option to do good things or bad but I haven’t gotten anywhere where there was an impact from your decisions ( maybe that’s the point?). The whole game is usually pretty good about giving you a tutorial/clues about stuff you need to do for a specific mission (like following someone or cooking recipes and making bait) but a lot of those side types of things I wouldn’t know to do without guidance and certainly am not mixing medicines or following a recipe for a specific type of food. Maybe as I play more these will become more intuitive but so far they feel more like a needlessly complex game mechanic that doesn’t add much to the story. Overall I was happy with the game—it’s an entertaining way to spend some time—but was glad I had gotten it on sale.

    Game is incredibly complex, all the way from the nature and landscape to the ability to roam and discover new areas. Impressed by the gameplay and the missions (also side/random stranger missions.) Great buy for those looking for a great story line.

    Amazing game, but not full HD on Xbox One S

    The game is amazing, so much to do. It's a huge upgrade from the original RDR which was already great. However, it's only 872p on Xbox One S, where all the other consoles achieve at least 1080p. If you're on 1080p or 4k and have a choice of consoles, I'd recommend the PS4 version over the One S unless you have an Xbox One X which looks and runs the best. Minor, and often hilarious, glitches exist in RDR2 just like they did on RDR1, though I haven't encountered any game breaking glitches yet. This is yet another Rockstar game I'm sure I'll play through multiple times. So excited it's finally here!

    Rockstar outdid themselves. This is a triumph of game design. The story, the characters, the gameplay, its all fantastic. This is an incredible game, and if you missed the first, pick this up still. You would be doing yourself a disservice to not play this game

    Red Dead Redemption 2

    Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 isn’t just a game—it’s a sprawling, cinematic experience that redefines what open-world storytelling can be. Set in 1899, it follows Arthur Morgan, a grizzled outlaw navigating the decline of the Wild West and the unraveling of the Van der Linde gang. What unfolds is a tale of loyalty, loss, and the slow erosion of freedom.

    The graphics and story of this game are amazing. Especially on the One X with a 4K TV. However, I find it really hard to get into this game because of the terrible controls/button layout. For all they put into these games, you would think they would make it a little more user friendly. Have to take my right thumb off the stick to do actions like running or making the horse move is very annoying.

    RDD2 is like no other game, every decision you make in this game has a different outcome, and the realism of keeping your hygiene up to date and making sure you rest and eat, plus all the different kinds of missions and the open world to discover. Worth the buy!

    Rockstar puts out GREAT games. This being one of them. The developers are still actively working on and releasing new content. The game is over a year old but still gets love from the development team and gaming community.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 is a prequel to the first Red Dead Redemption. The story is amazing and so is the gameplay. It can be a bit clunky at times but the attention to deal in this massive open world sets a new standard.

    I was super excited ever since they announced the release of Red Dead 2. I LOVED the original game and Undead Nightmare. My brothers and I use to play it all of the time. Rockstar makes quality games. The graphics are amazing and I love the story line.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 has some of the best visuals I have ever seen from my Xbox one x! The story is also incredible and the characters are very believable and lifelike. I highly recommend this to anyone that likes story driven games with great visuals.

    What a great game with beautiful visuals and a deep story. You can play solo or explore the online portion of it where you interact with others across the world. This is the reason I purchased the xbox.

    Growing up watching Spaghetti Westerns starring Clint Eastwood, I knew I had to try this game out. And it didn’t disappoint. Cool story lines and graphics make for a great way to kill time. Isn’t that what games are for? Enjoy

    If you're looking for a game where you can immerse yourself in the story and graphics then look no further than RDR2. Amazing story and insane attention to detail combine to create an experience where time no longer exists. Careful when using.
