Red Dead Redemption 2

[blairsh]

It's a bit slow to begin with. Way too much following, chat, following, chat, following, chat, following, chat, bit of action, ride back, still riding back, still riding back.

Rockstar usually have their gameplay levels nailed but this time it feels to much like they want to direct a movie not make a game.

Hoping it opens up into a more open worldie type feel soon.

Way to piss on my Friday night, just walked in with my copy

from the previews i've read ..

the start is set out to be claustrophobic and slow pased at the start to set the scene

hey as a fan of old westerns sounds good to me

now just about to install lets see how long this takes

Didn’t realise it was just out for consoles. I’ll go back to sleep then.

more than likely did not want to show people who bought Xbox X and PS4 Pros how badly they had been mistaken

 

[Mr.Bishie]

I’m tempted to save up some pennies for a PS4 just so I can play this! I’ve been watching those RadBrad vids, I’m hooked!

 

[Gromit]

PS4. 4K TV. HDR on.

Graphics are sweet!

 

[Rosemary Jest]

Verdicts so far?

Plus, does anyone have recommendations of where to get this cheapest for Xbox? Or I might wait for a bit and get it second hand.

Forgot about an old game I could trade in at 'Game' so I've bought it. Arrived home in a state of some excitement. 112 minutes to copy all the gubbins across! <twiddles thumbs>

I went through this yesterday evening, very much worth the wait

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I wouldn’t buy this in any format because of Rockstar’s appalling exploitative behaviour. I am not supporting this unapologetic crunch wankery. I’m not a scab. I will not buy the horse balls game.

Even given that, though, a lot of people seem to be saying that the “realism” aspect has been way over interpreted, to the point of making things unbearably slow with no justification.

 

[friedaweed]

50 fuckin quid?

I'll stick to Scarmble on my emulator.

 

[Looby]

Ours arrived this morning when I was out. Mr Looby didn’t tell me and went off to football. Probably a good job because he’d have divorced me if I’d started without him. [emoji1]

does the ps4 tell you how long to install

xbox just leaves you hanging around



i like it apart from the fact it appears give back a horse i stole was a bad idea as i'm warding about 10 friggin miles back to base

 

[blairsh]

does the ps4 tell you how long to install

Yes, yes it did.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

I’m not a scab.

Don’t use this term lightly, compañero.

 

[Voley]

Very good to look at so far. I don't mind the low-key start. The first one was similar. I'm waiting for it to open up into a full open-world thing but that comes soon I'd imagine.

'Slow' doesn't bother me. Some of my favourite bits in the first one were just idly riding around doing a bit of hunting etc so the game taking its time to set the scene is just fine with me.

Music's good. Daniel Lanois. Very atmospheric.

I'll be enjoying this, I think.

*groan* just either fucking say what you mean or don't

Playing a computer game makes someone a scab? I need to see your working.
