Red Dead Redemption 2 Reviews
Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC is truly mesmerizing. This is the definitive way to play Rockstar's Wild West epic.
RDR 2 was already magnificient on consoles, but it's even better on PC. If there weren't any technical issues, we'd name this as one of the best PC ports of all time.

The value of Red Dead Redemption 2 is fundamentally in the extraordinary integration that Rockstar has achieved between all its elements: the narrative, the playable and the technical. It is the best work of the company to date for the maturity achieved in each section, but also for the way in which all these come together to offer us an experience that never ceases to amaze us and that is perfectly integrated. Whether it be for the smallest things, like a citizen whose life we save on one occasion and he gives us a gift when we meet him in the city or the satisfaction when leaving the store dressed in a new suit for Arthur; to the most transcendent, such as an emotional and deep story or one of the most spectacular and solid technical sections that we have seen.

There are two ways to look at the PC version of Red Dead Redemption II. If you're viewing it from a content and gameplay standpoint, this is the Wild West opus you've come to expect from one of the specialists in open-world games. The single-player game is dense, with tons of quests and plenty to do in between the story-related missions. The online game is equally as packed, and it could easily stand alone from the campaign. If you're looking at it from a technical standpoint, it is a mess. Between the crashes, the constant popping of textures and objects, the inability to retain or change settings without fuss, and a busted benchmark, this hearkens back to the early days of the GTA IV launch, which didn't stabilize until months later. In the end, this is still a fine game and a must-have for those who crave sprawling, open-world adventures, but you might be better served waiting for things to settle down if you don't want to troubleshoot things along the way.
I'm quite sure that Red Dead Redemption 2 doesn't redefine the open-world genre, but it surely brings it to a much higher level. And it's not just through sheer size that it does that, but by combining writing, visuals, music, voice acting, and gameplay mechanics to deliver an engrossing experience that sometimes is better than the one in the real world.
RDR 2 is a great game, it's actually two in one (you'll pay for it). In the package you will get a massive story and a separate online world full of possibilities. However, the PC version still has some technical problems after the first big patch.

In the coming years when we talk about open world the reference to Red Dead Redemption 2 will be a must because, to date, the title represents the best that can be asked of a video game of this genre. Rockstar Games has managed to assemble with great lucidity a truly exceptional product, innovative in some respects and peculiar for many others.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is Rockstar's greatest achievement to date – an epic Western masterpiece set in a phenomenally-detailed recreation of 1890's America. Top-notch acting across the board brings its beautifully-written cast of characters to life and the riveting central story is surrounded on all sides by an almost endless array of deep and satisfying side activities that serve to further ground you in the life and times of Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang. A must-have title for your Xbox One.
We stand in the face of a unique experience to the extreme.

Red Dead Redemption 2 isn't just a great game. It's a game that sets an impossibly high new bar for how open-worlds can be handled. Its depiction of late 19th-century America feels both historically accurate yet abundantly open-ended, slow-paced and yet alive, grim and yet majestic. It makes the original Red Dead Redemption feel like a warm-up, the doodles on the page before the real thing has come to life.
Overall I love this game. As I look back on my experience with it there is just so much to enjoy, and even with all the issues mentioned above, I'll be hard pressed not to have this be my game of the year. Which is a testament to just how well crafted the world and it's story and its activities are.
Red Dead Redemption 2 breaks the rules of the games I tend to enjoy. Lower on my preference list are both life simulators and open world, yet I found myself thoroughly engrossed in what was offered.
A big, bold Western epic that takes lessons learned from Rockstar's entire history and combines them with a newfound appreciation for pacing and subtlety
Red Dead Redemption 2 takes everything that made the first so spectacular and elevates it to a new level. It boasts an enthralling story, coupled with rock solid gameplay, and is perhaps one of the best games ever made.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is the best game Rockstar Games has ever made, as it deftly combines one of the richest open worlds ever made with one of the most compelling stories of this generation.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is the game that I would like to keep playing for years. The wild west is marvelous and full of interesting events. The story is both solid and attractive. What's more, The interactive system makes a great progress and you can interact with nearly everyone in various ways, and it feels really real. RDR2 definitely will be one of the greatest video games of all time.

Rockstar, my dusty old hat is off to you. You've made this old videogame cowboy a very happy camper.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is the new North Star of the open-world genre, to what was The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild last March.

Red Dead Redemption 2 feels like Rockstar's new GTA 3 as in it takes massive leaps towards a new era of open-world gaming the likes of which have never been seen or at the very least executed to this level of quality courtesy of the borderline photorealistic graphics and remarkable game design.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is likely to go down as the best game of the generation. Rockstar has outdone themselves, delivering one of the biggest, richest, most engrossing open world games ever made. Whether you're an action fan, RPG fan, open world fan, or just want a great story, RDR2 has something for everyone.
