If ESO , Skyrim, The Witcher and games like Fable are your thing then this will be great for you. Also if you grew up loving Westerns. But I dont recommend it to friends with little patience or only like racing and PvP shooting games. The attention to detail and vast beautiful environments make for an amazing experience.
Bethesda needs to fix this and allow for muting in character creation. I tend to have to do that in other games. 1 reason i stopped playing GTA5 Online. Closed server only. Hoping RDR2 is PvE private server for friends or those who are respectable.
Of course it is. Who is saying otherwise?
Damn you are rich. Maybe that's why you have so much money. I am buying clothes, weapons, horses, food, gambling, drinks and baths. Also a ton of bounties on my head Go ahead and have some fun, you've earned it. I'm slowly doing the main missions while hanging in saloons, hitching rides on trains, fishing, hunting and just foolin' around. I'd probably have a lot of money if i'd stuck to story missions and was a nice outlaw.
I was tempted to try it but remembered how much i enjoy the game. No point in playing through if you have money cheats getting you top of the line weapons and horses. Something you need to grind to earn.
Wonder what kind of games you play. By your logic all games suck. I'll give examples.

@sampsonon HZD is Amazing no one is disputing that. But it is not as alive as RDR2. The video you posted showing off HZD isn't a good representation. She doesn't even leave footprints in the mud or snow!!! The snow deforms when walking in high snow conditions but when she's walking the trail in snow she leaves no trace behind. Those little details are what makes RDR2 amazing. In RDR2 near the swamps, if you pick up a body there is an imprint. Then put it back down and it sinks a b...
@ Elda You can't compare the 2. Open world games take up more power and will have a less level of detail. Uncharted is amazing but linear and less happening. The Order looked incredible but lacked interaction with environment.
I loved Uncharted 4 and would stop and look at the amazing detail and scenery but they are 2 different types of detail. With RDR2 it's more of a interactive level of detail.
You said all those companies don't care about how much money they make, but last i checked it's a business first. Also Nintendo? Really? Maybe that's why they aren't doing price drops on the Switch...All that money they don't care about.
@ Elda Well GOW may be an amazing game but you can't compare the 2. RDR2 would have to be compared to something like The Witcher 3 or Skyrim. Forza Horizon 4 is amazing but i can't compare it to RDR2. When i think of games in the same style of gameplay as RDR2 nothing really is as impressive. It's the little things that wow you.
The game is amazing. The attention to detail, the environment and the little things make it great. Can you name anything that is leaps and bounds over RDR2? And explain why. If you're gonna hold RDR2 to such standards that it needs to change gaming then the same has to be said about all games. If this game is meh to you I feel bad for you. You must be a FPS gamer.
Only Engineers and Management are usually on Salary. If you're W4 Artist, Tester and so on you are hourly and benefit from the massive overtime. So that starting pay of $50k without OT is now 6 figures. It's life in the US. Other countries work less for better pay. I work in Aerospace. We asked for a raise and our American mentality bosses said "you want more money, work more hours". Love it!
@Princess_Pilfer There is always time to find a new job. This isn't the 90s where you go door to door. You post your resume and wait. Also go online and apply for everything that looks like something you may like. Your friends chose that field. Art is crap as a career. Someone younger will always take the job for less pay leaving you jobless. Maybe your friends can't get work because their portfolio sucks. You mention spending that huge amount of time, but that 100 hour week was possi...
Who gives a damn about the hours they had to work. They were paid for their time. And most making 6 figures. i work 12 hours a day and drive 2 hours to work and back each way and make no where near 6 figures. It's life in America. If they don't like their jobs they can get new ones. CA has labor laws. Maybe the author should think about the workers suffering who made his/her phone and computer used to write this garbage.
What is going on with N4G. Why are there articles about game sales? This isn't news. How about you use Slickdeals.net there you will see multiple games for this price from Facebook deals because it's Spanish packaging. Just be warned from what others say, DLC and online may be a problem for region servers. Not sure if true.
This is a good news story? How? The Consumer is getting screwed and doesn't know it. It's very simple to see if you follow price trends. Xbox One S was $199 - $249 most of the year. This deal raises the price of the console to max release price, then gives you $100 off for spending $65. People should wait 1 month for BF. The X should be lower by then and S even lower.
Wouldn't call this a sweet deal. $199 after discount plus $65 for the game. Wait for BF like last year. $170 or less for console.
@SirenAries The one thing you're not seeing about digital is that it's never on sale. It can be 3 years old and for some damn reason it's still $60 while physical is in bargain bin. Digital media is a way for publishers to screw over consumers. There is no manufacturing, shipping and stocking cost associated with digital, yet it's the same price as physical. Can you explain? Also i pick up physical for the $3 in fuel because i get the physical game for $10-15 less than digital...
I wonder what happened to all the articles complaining about boring, long, mindless chores when the Witcher, Skyrim, Fable and ESO were released? The game is not boring. It just happens to feel that way when you are playing for 2 hours and realized you only did 10 min of the story. But i find that a good thing. You will always have something to do and come back for.
