Hands down the most immersive game I've played. As close as many of us will ever get to seeing into the lives of those of the old west. The amount of detail, the visuals and voice acting are 2nd to none. A must own title.

This game is like GTA meets RDR1 meets Witcher 3. The game is very slow paced so some may have a problem with that, but the quality is amazing. If you enjoy immersion and Witcher 3 like open world, you will love this game.

Purchased for Grandson for Christmas. Has many different game mode options. Has great graphics and sound effects. I like watching as a spectator while being played by Grandson.

Anyone who is a fan of the first two games should feel quite pleased with this installment of the franchise. Great set pieces, good story, open world, interesting characters, and fun gameplay are par for the course here.

This is seriously the best game of all time. The graphics are incredible, I’ve already played the game through and would literally pay 500 bucks just for another one to come out now

Rockstar has set the bar high once again! Its said they spent 8 years developing this game and it absolutely paid off. I easily spent 200 hours immersed in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Having loved the original Red Dead game, I knew I would pick this up eventually but was concerned due to not caring for the latest Grand Theft Auto game. I'm glad I did. The graphics are unprecedented on the PS4 Pro and amazing on the XBOX ONE original console ( I have yet to buy an XBOX ONE X). The landscapes range from swamp land to snowy mountains to tall grass and forests. There is an array of animals to hunt, fish to catch and horses to tame and ride. Hunting has an extra added layer of complexity. Animal pelt come in three different varieties, poor, good and perfect. In order to craft clothing, satchels, etc. perfect and/or legendary pelts need to be obtained. Fish can be caught then cooked or sold. There are also Legendary fish to catch as well.
This is not a game where you want to skip the cutscenes as the voice acting, music and story are top notch! I found myself walking around camp and talking to NPC's to learn their unique stories and backgrounds. I also enjoyed reading Arthur's journal as he records drawings of unique sights he sees while out in the world. The journal also gives the player insight into how Arthur feels about certain events that unfold throughout the game.
When you need a break from the main storyline, there are side quests as well as mini games like Dominoes, Five Finger Fillet, Poker and Blackjack. To put it lightly, this game is packed with things to do.
If you buy one video game this year, make it this one. When I exhausted all the options, I legitimately got bummed due to not having any new content. With that being said, for those of you who play online, there is RDR Online. I can't say much about it because I'm of the dying single player breed. I do hope that Rockstar releases a single-player DLC. They definitely will have my money if so!

The context specific controls are a bit clunky at times. The "handling" of the main character through the environment is finicky at times. Overall, it does not detract from an the immersive experience this game offers.

This game is a very well made open world game with several hours of missions and side missions to go through. It’s pretty cool to see how your decisions impact NPCs view of you and how they choose to interact with you.

Rockstar is known for making very good games and this is no exception. The map is massive and there is a lot for you to do alongside the main story. The graphics are also fantastic.

If you are a fan of open world games and westerns you are in for a treat. Rockstar is the best game developer around and every time they come out with something new it sets the bar for the next 5 years. Don't miss out!
