I will immediately state that I'm not pointing a finger at Rockstar saying they copied another game. In this industry, like any art, learning from others goes a long way. Rockstar has always been able to craft exceptional games -- just look at the most recent years of success with GTAV Online or any of the GTAs. What has Rockstar learned? From the looks of it, that it’s possible to create epic playscapes representative of our real world that will be fun to play in without fantasy or sci-fi. It has gotten a bit tedious that every game that’s willing to put out these massive sandboxes restricts it to stories of fiction, except Rockstar of course. Covering a bit more ground, the upcoming Assassin’s Creed is also helping fill this much-needed role for games.

President Karl Slatoff also mentioned that Red Dead Redemption 2 will have an "all-new online experience," but declined to provide more information about it. The wording seems to indicate that the online feature of the game will be in some way different from Grand Theft Auto Online, but at the moment we have no idea

Rockstar has attempted (and succeeded) to stop griefing players to a degree. Non-griefing players will now be invisible to anyone more than 150 meters away, while griefers will be more visible on the map by having a bounty put on their head. However, even this has its critics as others point out the addition of bounties for relatively minor incide

The list of complaints is extensive but focus on main areas including the new emotes, daily challenges, and hunting. Some of the new daily challenges involve a weapon that hasn't even been released in Red Dead Online yet, microtransactions include a poor set of clothing options that cost gold bars, and emotes can cost up to $100 to buy. Elsewhere, new headshot bounties actually turn players into griefers more than before as actual griefers can simply ride off-radar to escape. Finally, animal carcasses have been nerfed to the extreme and badly damaged the money of those who basically relied on hunting for inc

Red Dead Redemption II’s landscapes seem representative of the feelings pulled up from a game like The Witcher 3 by how one plays in them. The Witcher 3 presented a blend of main storyline with endless possibilities of getting sidetracked in an open world out of curiosity. The opening shot during the credits followed up by the mountain side view says it all. As Breath of the Wild did when it showcased its open world, RDRII is showing these places to say ‘go there!’ Don’t worry RDRII, we will. When people think of the West/Frontier, it’s usually the setting of the first Red Dead Redemption. RDRII is presenting a landscape that will be exciting to explore. North America has a landscape that is gorgeous giving to views that are cause to stop and soak it in. It'll be refreshing to visit something familiar even if alien to the present timeline. Anyone who has hiked into North American wilderness will know this feeling immediately.

Red Dead Redemption II looks to be telling a true Western Americana tale, although that could be completely wrong knowing Rockstar. The trailer is only filled with Rockstar’s famous one-liners mixed with bouts of violence. While that is the very surface level, Rockstar has most-likely crafted a tail as dynamic as the landscapes in RDRII. Again, bringing it back to The Witcher 3. One of the reasons exploring the Northern Kingdoms in the Witcher is fun is because of its diversity encountered throughout the landmass and that’s just one map. More environment means a more fleshed out world; it gives reason to exploration these game worlds are rich in secrets and who knows what secretes RDRII is hiding. RDRII looks to not only be telling its own tale, but the many tales (sidequests) that can be found throughout.

Following in its predecessor's steps, Red Dead Redemption 2 concludes with an emotional epilogue. Unlike the first title, this part rivals the length of an average video game. Gamers have since bemoaned the number of missions in this concluding chapter, especially the slower ones detailing everyday frontier l

"The nature of our approach and specifically the nature of Rockstar Games' approach is never to be derivative and always to shatter expectations. My belief is that Red Dead Redemption 2 will shatter expectations and that the online experience also will be extraordinary, but unexpec

People have a soft spot for Red Dead Redemption and John Marston's tragic tale. It's definitely worthy of its place in the gaming landscape, but it is bothersome when people compare it to the prequel and say the second part is not up to snuff. Red Dead Redemption 2's story certainly meets the storytelling standards of Red Dead Redemption 2 guide|https://reddeadstation.Com/ Dead Redemption , and perhaps surpasses

When Rockstar announced the update on Facebook, it didn't take long for the comments section to fill with angry rants from disgruntled players. Rockstar boasted "competitive gameplay" and "daily objectives" alongside "player customization and emotes." Instead, the company has delivered complaints about grinding, nerfed hunting abilities, and ludicrous microtransacti
