Red Dead Redemption 2

Started by Trocity8 pages

I bought the $100 Spider-Man, went 50-50 with my gf on AC😮dyssey because she loved Origins, AND I also have BOps4 pre-ordered (1 hour, woot!). I'm gonna have to pass on this game for the time being, maybe get it for christmas or something.

Looks incredible, though.

A friend sent me this screen shot. JFC, that's a massive f*cking install.

Yep, and the console version of games are generally more optimized!

We've long since blown past the 100gb point on PC. Gears of War 4 was 85gb back in 2016.

Supposedly its higher then that for those that are using the PS4 Pro/Xbox one.

You bought black ops 4 instead of RDR2...

You disgust me.

I have lots of friends who I play online with and they all got it. I'll get RDR2 eventually, no big deal.

Oh next you're gonna join a clan and upload shitty 360 no-scope videos while screaming at your television screen.

"HEY WHATS UP GUYS JUST JOINED "SOAR".

Is it true that the physical game is two discs?

Yep.

It's a massive game from an audio perspective.

Okay.

Near perfect reviews so far. 98 on xbox and 97 on PS4 which puts it just ahead or on par with Breath of the Wild (which is the 4th highest reviewed game of all time).

Preloaded and ready to go!

BTW heads up if you just like looking up reviews, avoid Gamespot, Game Informer, and especially Polygon. All of them apparently included spoilers, and Polygon has late game to end game spoilers. I haven't read any, but I'm passing along the message.

A Rockstar game getting overwhelmingly positive reviews? Can't be true.

Well, I WAS going to try to play RDR2, but the installation is 105 GB and I don’t have that much time to wait. I guess I’ll install it then play when I get a chance sometime next week.

Thats why I pre-loaded the digital deluxe copy.

Yep, me too.

Started playing a few hours ago. A few things I've noticed.

1. The feels very slow. It starts slow and the normal character walking speed is plodding at best.
2. The world feels alive once you get into the "open world" aspect of the game. There is events happening all over the place. However, I have played about 10 minutes of being in the map and I have come across three random events already. I love this aspect but it's totally going to lose all meaning if it happens every 10 seconds.
3. Still getting used to all the controls. It's definitely not as slick as other games. You converse with people but you need to hit LT and then point to the guy and then decide what you are going to say. However, bringing up your gun is with LT and the shooting is with RT. Unless you are pointing towards a NPC..then LT is talk and RT is shoot. I still don't know how to aim a guy when there is an NPC in the way.

If I’m off this weekend I plan to finally play this game. Work has been non-stop.

Going to buy it next Friday

I'm a little over three hours in and I'm loving this game.

The open world exploration is beyond what I expected.
