That shit isn't even top 25. Just another game Journos could actually finish so they gave it a 10.

>>713844834
Post 25 games that are better.

>inb4 a bunch of dogshit like OoT, FF7, Mario 64, Nier Automata

No game even comes close to rivaling RDR2's story, writing, characters, open world, graphics, attention to detail, animations, and even the gunplay is top notch.

>>713844674 (OP)
>you will never beat this for the first time again
Hold me bros....

>>713844674 (OP)
Honestly as someone whose been a fan of the Western video games since Sunset Riders I'm just grateful that Rockstar has kept the genre alive this long. That said RDR1 was better overall than 2 and i would love to see a remake or sequel to Gun rather than RDRIII

Anyways, 4 dollars a pound.

sat in my backlog for too long, now the remaster leaked, should I just wait?

>>713844674 (OP)
>pound for pound
What does this mean? RDR2 is probably one of the highest budget games ever made.

>>713844674 (OP)
does someone have that collage of all these women crying over arthurs death?

>>713844674 (OP)
No. Most of the things in this game are B+ tier. Characters are B+, the story is B+, gameplay is B+. Only the visuals are A+. Dozens of games have better story and/or gameplay and/or characters

>>713846123
>Dozens of games have better story and/or gameplay and/or characters
lmao, no the fuck they don't. And none have anywhere near the level of characters and character interactions and attention to detail that RDR2 has.

>>713846242
I say this as someone who likes RDR2 and plays it frequently, you're over exaggerating

This, while I found RDR2 disappointing i can't get mad at it for keeping the Western genre of gaming alive. Even if it did feel more like a Tarantino-style period piece

>>713844674 (OP)
Nah this is where I finally burned out on Rockstar games mission set up. I'm sick of going to the cutscene so I can drive a car or ride a horse to the next cutscene.

>this is your average rdr2 hater
Probably the same kids posting on this board

>>713844674 (OP)
I loved RDR1, but couldn’t play RDR2. Every single over designed animation took forever to finish, just felt annoying. I wanted a fun game, not a boring cowboy sim.

Yeah that was the point homie, even games that brainlets think have that capability do not actually work that way

Not bad rockstar

>>713852470
I figured, its just that as a Bethesda fan I feel it important to keep it real and make sure people don't get the wrong idea.
They might think bethesda is competent or worthy of respect, or is capable of making better games.
Or just making games as good as they used to.
Hell, I don't know if they are capable of making a finished game at this point.

>>713852632
I knew Starfield was going to be bad but I didn't think it would be THAT bad. Boy I was wrong

>>713844674 (OP)
Easily game of the last decade and possibly the last great big triple a game that will ever be released. That first playthrough is one of those "wish I could forget and relive" things that are becoming rarer and rarer.

>>713852672
As a Bethesda fan, I gotta tell you that it was everything I thought it would be.... but even I, a devoted Bethesda fan, did not predict Skyrim in Space with the StarBorn
I JOKED about Skyrim in space.
We all did.
We didn't think Todd would actually try to do it, the ambitious mad lad.
Everyone is dogging on Kojima for being crazy enough to try to make a game that will convert as many people who don't like it as possible into liking it by purposefully doing shit people don't like, but Todd.
Whew, Todd is on another level, man.

The combat is extremely simplistic.

Turn off auto-aim and play it with mouse and keyboard

>>713844674 (OP)
idk about that. i don't have a hate boner for this game or anything but i just couldn't replay it after i beat it at all. i tried twice. the missions are way too scripted. i don't think i could ever consider a game i literally never want to revisit in my life to be in my top 10.

This. It's why I went back to the first game. Going through the beginning motions fucking sucks and its what I hated in bethesdashit games

>>713852535
>>713847497
this game kind of feels like playing with a first time DM. there is NO wiggle room for the plot train whatsoever. you're a passenger and you're quadruple buckled into your seat.

I laffed.

gamers are so used to not reading a fucking book that they'll see the abuse of history in this game and give characters retarded anachronistic personalities and think "yeah but the rest of it's good and it's better than other games". imagine if you watched a movie and a bunch of dialogue and characters were obviously written by retarded faggots but people said "y-yeah but it's good otherwise" lol. slopworld.

>>713853204
Anon.
I am already used to that shit from Loui Lamour books and Spaghetti Westerns.
The old west was twisted for entertainment via film long before games, and via books long before that.

The beginning being several hours of shuffled from set piece to set piece before you can even engage in the open world is just the start of terrible boredom this game inflicts on you.

you need to play more video games

>>713853553
has nothing to do with culture war. get some standards. even if i was literally martin luther king this shit is gay.

>>713852972
I did, it still felt quite bland. All the guns look, sound and feel the same. I would agree that RDR2 is a gem if it had better gunplay.

I will say that he is a lot closer to how things were in the old west, but he is playing with things to keep to his themes first and foremost.

Uhh are you reading your own post, having a melty eh? Also you misconstrued my first reply to you because nobody thinks that there is a culture war going on besides the type of person you were replying to. You jumped to a conclusion like a woman would

>>713854198
It is. But RDR1 is significantly less so, which is why you see a lot of grouches preferring it over RDR2.

RDR2 has less of the edge you would expect and more of the regret with a bit of uncommon (for the time) softness that pisses people off because they miss that edge and don't like that softness.

>Abortion? Well, that's a rough one. Bit of a tough pill to swaller. At first, I didn't rightly take kindly to the idea of killin' babies, but Dutch gave me this ole thick science book and I pretty much surmised that well, that thing is about as human as Micah here, which is lackin' to say the least, heh. Hell, I'd say a gal has the right to choose.
>A gal? As president? Well, what I can tell ya is its been nothin' but fellers since this whole thing here started up and what have we got? A bunch of other dead fellers. What have we got ta lose? I reckon' tryin' a gal's touch wouldn't do anyone no harm. If weakness is a concern of yours, I promise you some of the ladies runnin' in my gang would probably make Old Hickory look like a nancy in comparison. Hell, I'd reckon its her turn.
>Lettin' a black feller do yer wife? Well, if the old lady's havin' fun, who am I to deny her that? I reckon that feller's got a bigger one than me anyway. Besides, we gotta pay some back for that whole slavery bid'ness we did to them. Dutch raised me and I ain't his real son, so I'll raise my wife's son, whether he's black or white.

I don’t care if people think this game is boring I was counting the days to buy it and play it back in 2018 I fell in love with RDR1 and thought it had a really fun fighting execution system I wasn’t disappointed with RDR2 in almost any way I loved the creepy atmosphere of the bayou and Saint Denis I loved the stranger encounters the story and the characters the graphics the animation the nature the cities Even Guarma living in a tropical country I was really impressed to see how well Rockstar recreates a tropical environment Even the singing of the birds was like in my country. Being able to blow people head and limbs off with a shotgun was also pretty sick. God I wish I could delete my memory and start again. Im always going to be gratef for being able to experience RDR2 as a 16 old… during the great summer of 2018, just after my junior year in high school.

As is usual, lol.

Any PC players notice how much it crashes? I have a 4060 16gb and it still crashes. Even without mods.

>turn off console vision
>tree leaves disappear

>>713859341
I've been playing a pirated version since 2021
They fucked up the performance so bad with updates on the paid version, wouldn't be surprised if they introduced the crashing too

>>713859341
I played it with 980ti and I don't remember crashes. I played RDO on my shitty iGPU and got some crashes though.

>>713845086
>close to rivaling RDR2's story, writing, characters, open world, graphics, attention to detail, animations
notice not a single one of those is gameplay related. the shooting is the gameplay and you included it as an afterthought.
this already tells me exactly the kind of mindless consumer slop you love to shovel into your fat fucking retard face. the fact that you think the game has good writing only pushes it into pathetic territory. pick up a book. literally any book is better than this garbage. you're an adult. grow the fuck up.

>>713859508
Possible. I don't remember it crashing this much when it first released on PC. I've been trying to play it over the past year and keep getting random CTDs.

>>713859710
why read when I can hold forward on thumb stick and watch cutscenes

>dude read
Real scholars don't go onto 4chan and tell people to read books, you're a joke that nobody in your actual life takes serious so you have resorted to trying to talk down to strangers online. That's pathetic

is it 2001 again?

>>713860183
Those complaints are valid, I'm just telling the people bringing up books on /v/ that they're retarded for doing so

>>713860319
I was just commenting that I doubt the average console player can read

>>713860448
Yes we know tendies snoys and xbots are all the same braindead cattle. This is nothing new

I played RDR2 for a few hours when it was on PS Plus and I remember being mostly bored and thinking that the mocap was visibly worse than that of Snoy movie-games. The open world was pretty but it was hard to find something interesting to do. I was also playing MH Rise at the same time so my main memory of RDR2 is stopping playing to go back to dodging Crimson Valsatrax attacks like a ninja.

>>713859901
>Real scholars don't go onto 4chan and tell people to read books
Thats because it's a lost cause. People have to learn to read at early childhood.

>>713858032
Wrong

>>713844674 (OP)
Realism wise is still the best other than that no, story is bad, characters are trash, gameplay is average

>>713860621
I'd say that retards telling people on /v/ to read have less awareness than people who can't actually read

>>713859710
Why does every single videogame have to be some ultra-gamey videogame? Why are you so insecure?

RDR2's story, writing, and characters are better than pretty much any western I've ever watched and getting to be an active participant in that world immerses you so much more.

I just don't get why people are so deadset on one style of game, and hate everything else. I like games all genres, all eras, all styles. As long as it's good, I'll play it.

>>713860727
Bringing books is also pointless since RDR2's writing doesn't even come close to Hollywood slop or mid tier prestige TV.

>>713860805
Yes so we agree that bringing up reading on a video game board is retarded

>>713860736
Commit sudoku before throwing yourself down a ravine.

>>713860805
I don't even necessarily think so but the majority would disagree with you
Look at how normies eat up the last of us show. And that game is written like ass compared to RDR
Part of this boards problem is extreme contrianism that some of you have started to take seriously

>>713860854
Well it's given due to the fact that it's an American website.

Damn almost like the whole planets obsessed with merica, why is that

>>713860975
I haven't seen the show but the game stood out just because it was way more polished than similar movie-ganes. The mocap and animation were great, the cutscene direction was good enough to keep people engaged, the writing was fairly decent (albeit disjointed), the graphics were top notch for a PS3 game.

RDR2 jumps between walk-and-talk sections, gameplay that's completely scripted, and overtly long cutscenes with mediocre mocap and bland cinematography. I also personally don't care about the characters, but that's subjective. But the pacing is awful and there is no sense of momentum to the story. Finally the gameplay is just samey shootouts. It's just a slog to play and to watch.

>>713861078
You sound like a boring and annoying boomer.

>>713861491
That's been Rockstar's formula since GTA III. A large majority enjoy them enough to where now GTA VI is the most anticipated entertainment product of all time. You're allowed to not like a game but your taste is not always gonna align with what others like. I'd say if it confuses you that much then it's probably just best to ignore it completely, that's what I do with games I don't like

>>713844674 (OP)
Does the EU physical copies really weigh that much?

>>713861141
>non sequitur

>>713861723
>"how can I avoid responding to this"

I still want to know what OP meant by "pound for pound". I would assume in the video game development context it would mean budget? But I'm pretty sure RDR2 had a huge budget, probably top 5 or 10 of all time considering its content and polish.

>>713861706
The cutscenes and quests in GTA3 were way shorter and more simple so it never gets annoying. It wasn't until San Andreas that Rockstar drank their own Kool Aid and started pretending that people cared about their mediocre writing (and this got way worse with GTA4 and GTAV). The game also stood out because of how free and responsive the world was in comparison with other games of that era. Also, driving cars is more fun than tapping X constantly.

>>713861969
Idk how you can complain about mediocre writing while praising tlou in one of your last posts. This all just comes down to entertainment being subjective and we're both wasting our time

>>713861793
I can come up with several annoying responses, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a non sequitur so it's pointless to respond either way.

>>713862025
I praised tbe polish and production values of TLOU, and the gameplay is also fairly solid for an action horror game. The writing itself doesn't stand out, but like it doesn't waste your time with pointless bullshit.

>>713862125
>Brings up America unwarranted on an American website in a thread about a game of cowboys in America of all things (that was coincedentally made by brits)

Do you know what non-sequitur means

What are your top 25?

Post the game you think has a+ or s+ tier characters

Do whatever you want in the open world. Story mode has to be played in a specific way since it is a story.
>>713851232
How should the mission style be?
>>713852271
This

>>713862219
Strange I can't stand the forced slow bullshit with crafting. And a blatant RE ripoff. I much preferred Uncharted to TLOU
But I've always enjoyed rockstar gameplay. I'm not gonna go too much more into this as I said it's a waste of time comparing these things when we clearly like 2 different things

>>713862249
>literally gets triggered by people making fun of 'murrica

>>713853053
This. Fuck this game

>>713862421
>asking why you're obsessed is "triggered"
Ever heard the term "rent free"
Making fun of merica is fine but you just did it to pivot from being called retarded for bringing up books lol

>>713862389
Rockstar gameplay is just classic Max Payne but significantly worse and much more sluggish. TLOU made several big changes to the RE4 formula and the cutscenes primarily just exist to hide loading screens.

>>713862421
And you also should stop using words like "non-sequitur" when you don't know what they mean

>>713862565
I wasn't the one who first mentioned books.

>>713862635
Yeah that's all true

>>713854714

>>713844674 (OP)
I remember the controls were godawful when I first play this. Gotta look up on YouTube on how to unfuck the controls that Rockstar set. Other than that, I enjoy it. Wouldn't call it 10/10 but I did enjoy it. The horse you can keep being limited to 4 is still retarded tho

>>713862775
Who knows, ask one on the internet and find out

>>713844674 (OP)
RDR2 gameplay is CTRL-C CTRL-V of GTA 5, boring as fuck.

CP2077: PL is a much better game than RDR2 is, and it's actually crazy how that's not a popular opinion.

>>713863095
>CP2077: PL is a much better game than RDR2 is

>>713845893
>i would love to see a remake or sequel to Gun rather than RDRIII

Same, i agree western as a genre in vidya is underappreciated i would love to see a competing open world game that takes place during the height of the old west (1870s-1880s) where there would be actual survival mechanics, Apache ambushes and other outlaw/settler stuff

>>713863215
it is nigga, just pick anything, gameplay, history, side quests, graphics, CP2077 wins.

My favorite horsey game. I hope rdr3 does more with horses when it comes out in 25 years.

It's only British people that hate on RDR2, or people not from the ol' land of the free. I've never met an American that didn't want to be a cowboy. Don't matter if your white, black, brown, green, gay, shuckin corn, or smokin your dads nuts by the crick
