Red Dead Redemption 2 Review: In The Details

Overview

The game is absolutely revolutionary and will be a high talking point among gamers for years to come.

The game is set in 1899 toward the end of the wild part of the west. You play as Arthur Morgan, one of the leading members of the Van Der Linde gang. The story is long, the voice acting is spot on, and the script is stellar. By the end of it, you will have run through every emotion possible. It’s not a story full of giant twists or head-scratching mysteries. Instead, it feels very human, and it’s a unique take on an epic western.

The graphics are incredibly gorgeous and detailed. Red Dead 2 is one of the most graphically stunning games on consoles today.

The sound and music score are both sound incredible. Gunshots feel rightfully loud, and the wildlife sound real and, you can often hear them in the distance. It’s very atmospheric and contributes well to the game’s immersive nature.

The game is slow, deliberate, and immersive. The world and its inhabitants have weight  Animations take time, and you’re restricted on how many weapons you can carry. Likewise, you can’t fit the corpse of more than one deer or other large animal on your horse at a time.

The game wants you to live it, not simply play it, and it honestly succeeds at this. You feel like you are Arthur Morgan living in the wild west.

 

Verdict

The game seems to push you to play the story, punish you if you don’t, and shower you with an unbalancing amount of rewards if you do.. The world is detailed, beautiful, and immersive. The slow and deliberate pace seduces you to get lost in it
