Nov 7, 2018OMG this game is not as good as RDR1, is overhyped and overrated, famboyism and marketing is real.
Gameplay is slow and can't enjoy it that much.
Controls are bad, a game can't have 97 rating with theses issues are you kidding me and thats not all but I have no time for this joke, not bad as some claim but not awesome either. -
Nov 7, 2018Pros: Very good visuals. You can sell the game if you have disk version.
Cons: Extremely boring gameplay. Only reason I played through (yes I did) was the story which I wanted to know. After that there is no reason to replay. So in the end (after selling it) it cost me 10€ for the playthrough what is kinda ok. -

Oct 29, 2018Completely oversold by "professional reviewers". Game would not be great even 5 years ago, let alone today. Gameplay is 10 years behind current games while story is boring and uninspired. And 60+ hours gameplay number comes from being forced to travel for 80% of the time.

Oct 29, 2018Incredibly dull. Graphics on the landscapes are excellent. Graphics on the characters is terrible.
-
Oct 27, 2018The feedback with the character It is not well achieved at the controls level. the complexity is good except when you sacrifice rhythm and fun.

Oct 26, 2018Very pretty game with an extremely generic open world and bland combat. If you thought cowboys didn't have a whole lot to do, then you were right.

Oct 26, 2018Player movement is really killing this game for me' slow and clunky. Looks nice though.

Oct 31, 2018RDR2 leaves gamer bored after few hours. Story and its characters lack the interesting profile the prequal had. Game is pretty and map is big but the almost empty wasteland is just way too uninteresting to be explored. There are few laughs here and there but most of these are just meme worthy jokes.

Oct 27, 2018Looks great, characters are interesting, but the gameplay... I played the first one, but had to quit rdr2 after 8 hours cause it felt like it was just wasting my time. I think I'll replay the first one.

Oct 26, 2018Just like most open world games, the novelty wears off and the world feels dead. It has nice gunplay but it gets repetitive fast and its story is its only saving grace.
-
Oct 26, 2018I don't know but something is off in this game, game play is meh, the graphic are great, but not that great. Story is so so.... IT IS NOT THE BEST GAME EVER...FOR sure. It remember me Mass Effect Andromeda so yeah I'm comparing this game to Mass Effect Andromeda.

Oct 26, 2018Grand Theft Auto V DLC mixed in with Assassins Creed 3. That's what i've gotten from this after 10 hours of play. Won't bother finishing it as i'm bored now. Too grindy and not much going on other than the usual stuff that we've already played in a Rockstar game a million times over already. Runs poorly with bad frame rate dips and clunky controls. Just watch someone stream it.
-
Oct 26, 2018Extremely slow, with tons of unnecessary additions that only worsen the game.
-
Oct 26, 2018Game graphics seems a bit blurry on PS4 Pro and it doesn't run as well as what i was seeing in the videos they showed leading up to the release.

Oct 26, 2018Very overdone game. media has given too many points. the game is very heavy and seedy. but the graphics are nice. There is nothing else beautiful.
-
Oct 26, 2018Vejo que não evoluiu como devia, além de ter várias partes repetitivas e cansativas, não se mostra superior a GTA 5 e não entendo porque existir um jogo assim tão ''Chato''.
-
Oct 26, 2018Honestly, really disappointed with this, it seems like GTA V was Rockstars last hurrah. This game doesnt improve on GTA V, not even graphically.
-
Oct 26, 2018I might change my outlook later but I went in expecting it to be on Nintendo’s level of quality but it wasn’t. I just stopped playing after getting it at midnight so it’s good for a long play as I’m not finished but so far it’s very repetitive and very slow. I don’t recommend it until a price drop later on.

Oct 26, 2018Bored ananistic gameplay.
I do not like westerns. Infinite sandbox, no active gameplay.
**** for consoles.
The worst gaming experience in the last few years. -
Oct 26, 2018This game is bland, generic and offers nothing new to the genre. It had the potential to be a great game, but ended up with as much substance as a coleslaw.
-
Oct 26, 2018It crashed multiple times on PS4 Pro even after downloading 3 patches. As for the game itself it is very boring and clunky. The character movement is not natural at all. Regarding the story mode it looks like it was a rushed release like God o War: out of place cutscenes and out of place missions

Oct 26, 2018Just a horse riding simulator. Ride horse, shoot something get bored. How can all these people give it 10 when it's been out mere hours.......

-
Oct 26, 2018This game is good at graphics and atmosphere as western, but its operationality is very poor and we have to learn too many things to play well.
-
Oct 26, 2018The game looks like GTA 5, sometimes it seems that this is it, only with mods. Rockstar had a good advertising campaign, but I personally did not like the game. At the beginning, she tries to seem interesting, but these are just scripts to start the game.

Aug 11, 2020Online is a complete disaster. They only care about GTAO and left this game in complete anarchy. 7 months without an update and when they added it turns into a chaotic buggy mess. Rockstar on his way to beat EA for the worst videogame company ever.
-
Mar 17, 2020Boring, tedious, and throws you in the deep end without explaining anything to you. The game has about a billion mechanics that it refuses to explain well enough for you to understand. This game is trash compared to the first game and I'm sad that Rockstar decided to take 11 years to make a babysitting simulator instead of a sequel to one of my favorite games ever. Total waste of time and money.
-
Jun 25, 2020Very boring gameplay! 99% of the game you press A button and nothing more. The whole game is about only riding the horse
-
Jun 26, 2020Затянутая и скучная игра. Просто невозможно получить удовольствие от пары часов игры. За два года так и не прошел.
-
May 12, 2020The game is not funny. The movement system is not fluid, you are forced to watch infinite dialogue scenes which do not seem that interesting. Also the online part has an introduction which is pretty long and force you to walk for long, while the other character does not tell anything interesting.

May 14, 2020Просто изумительная игра, заставила плакать не раз над сюжетом. Красивая графика, продуманная физика, прекрасный открытый мир. Прошел игру и всем советую поступить так же!

Jun 15, 2020So slow and boring graphics feel outdated time to time and gameplay is so dead

Aug 17, 2020Angry Generation X gamer here! I was going to go off on a massive rant but suffice to say I do not recommend this game or trust the dubious 8.4 user score on this site.

Sep 29, 2020Chores: The Game. Shave. Eat. Your horse is dirty. Your stamina is low. Endless, tedious minutiae do not a game make. More evidence that the game criticism industry is utterly, hopelessly broken, unless stellar graphics are all that count.

Jul 26, 2020Game about horse ride and **** auto pilot. Very bored. Very stupid control. Very bad
-
Feb 20, 2021It's boring, sad, hard. It is not possible to play because of the boringness of everything. An extended movie about cowboys, with a bunch of mechanics that were used in previous games from RockStar studios.
-
Dec 20, 2020É um simulador de cavalo com a mesma jogabilidade do gta. a mesma dinamica de missões 5 min de cavalgadas por 3 min de ação durante 100 horas de gameplay.

Jul 25, 2020One of my favorite games of all time. Will be playing this game for years. After completely completing it there are still so many things to discover and do.

Aug 3, 2020Most overated game i ever play. No storyline, exept a band of gipsy travelling around a boring world. Only American will love this game because of cowboy propaganda , just waiting for some indian to kill them all . Too much character that you don't care and don't even know what they're doing .

Dec 14, 2020Игра не оправдывает установленных собою завышенных ожиданий и не впечатляет сюжетом или графикой.

CD-ActionNov 14, 2019It’s an huge, outstanding piece of art – worth the hard-earned cash as well as countless hours that are needed to get to know at least some of the attractions of Rockstar’s rendition of Wild West. For those who put story first – the biggest virtue of Red Dead Redemption 2 is that it sets the stage for RDR 1 and does it wonderfully. [13/2018, p.40]

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Dec 31, 2018Amazing not only for Western lovers. No other game has probably offered so many options to express yourself in the open world, and at the same time did not have such an interesting, rough and moving story. A magnificent experience, with a slightly slower start. [Issue#291]

Nov 30, 2018The first new game from Rockstar for this generation of consoles doesn't disappoint, it is as impressive as you hoped it to be.
