Gaming Red Dead Redemption 2 (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Stadia)

Yeah it’s sad because I don’t agree with you. Don’t be a snowflake about it.

If developers want to put women in a game then that’s up to them. Don’t hate on a game because they decided not to.

You didn’t answer my point about rockstar characters all being the same. Trevor for me was one of the worst characters in GTA history but some people loved him. I just hated playing as him. But they all the same characters according to you. All men so must be the same.
Seriously, why does it matter what gender the lead character is anyway. Doesnt change anything about how the game will actually be played. Such a weird point these few people are banging on about.

I could if you really wanted but I posted a review that said the game had bad controls and wasn't the best at some story aspects and you then went on a SJW/gamer gate conspiracy and went through my post history to try and find a ''ultra agenda''.

If I point out that the video game series you seem have a very close bond with(Slightly too close in my view) is actual nothing more than long series of nostalgic references to old movies. Then I'm slightly worried you might respond by smearing yourself in shit and finding my home address.


I’d say you’ve gotten in over your head, judging by some of your responses.
I've vastly underestimated the attachment adult men have towards video games.
 
Installing now. Not home from work until after 7 tomorrow. Going to go straight to sleep tomorrow night so I can wake up at 5am on sat and put in 12-15 hours of game time during Saturday and catch the football as well. Buzzing for this.

I usually agree with your posts, but the review you posted was shit tbf. And I'm not planning on buying RDR2 anytime soon, maybe when it comes down in price.
 
Game on.

In the barn you search
I choked the guy and I swear his head changed :lol:

What the hell are you going on about now?

You found one negative review out of 100, well done to you. Some story aspects? Your first post in this very thread was bleating about including women for some odd reason. Yes because including a women is going to make the story 1000 times better suddenly especially as you didn’t like the other previous stories.

Seriously, why does it matter what gender the lead character is anyway. Doesnt change anything about how the game will actually be played. Such a weird point these few people are banging on about.

Because they have nothing nothing to do in their sad lives besides moan. If it’s a white make they’d moan why isn’t it a black male? If it’s a black male they’d moan why isn’t it a female? These people you can never please.
 
Really tempted to get a one X for this it looks unreal.

Currently have the X with Red Dead 2 and the new Forza for £400 at Game.

Read it and tend to agree with the above tweet. They also gave BOTW a 6 and watchdogs 2 a 9. So it’s clear their tactic is to get as much attention as possible.

If the lead was a female I’m sure they would have given it a 10.

Mate I really don't want to use my time quoting back your own shite posts.

I need to get a new tv before I upgrade to the X. But I've been playing through red dead 1 through backwards compatability this week and for an 8 year old game it is simply stunning graphically. I'm sure red dead 2 is going to look amazing

Train wreck.
 
There's a lot of info popping up while other stuff is happening. I just missed something that I think said 'you can now rear this horse'? Or something along those lines.
 
Longest intro ever :boring:

The graphics are absolutely amazing. the amount of detail to everything has blown me away
 
Its a slow burner, but my word, the atmosphere, voice acting, and characters have been so far stellar.

Love Dutch van der Linde. Such a charismatic character.
 
a mate of mine just told me that in winter the horses balls shrink and in summer they droop more... amazing level of detail! imagine that was your weeks task at work... "OK, this week... Make those horse balls realistic!" No wonder it was delayed

Finding that too. There’s an instruction that you can do an action and by the time I’ve registered it, it’s gone and I have no idea what it said. Beautiful game though
 
So are you and not only should you be capable of using your and you're correctly but you should realise that taking one review that calls it average and acting like it's law, even though all other reviews are full of praise, is childish and showing you have a bias against the game.
Who cares ? Not everyone has to love a game.

Don't bother. People are extremely anal about some of these games. You'd think their son had made it or something.
 
I think this is going to be another brilliant game. The last few years have been insanely good for a gamer.

I do think I'll be selling this after finishing it. I've never had any interest in a rockstar game once I've finished the story. Even the ones I adored.

Whether or not this is true, the bloke you are quoting has shown a distinct lack of class/insight in any of his previous posts. He came in with an agenda - it's not really about the game. I don't even own the game, didn't play so much as a second of the first Red Dead, yet I still find his posts incredibly objectionable.

What agenda ? He's not a big fan of Rockstar games, seemingly? Is that a crime? It's the opposite extreme to those giddy about everything they do isn't it?
 
Who's still up on uk time?

I just got eaten by a cougar trying to save a guy stuck up a tree. Problem with not being able to carry a bow and a shotgun.

Also some guy started a fight with me and I accidentally shot him.
Unfortunately a bear also started a fight with me because I accidentally shot the air while trying to take my gun out. I'm not used to the controls yet.

Yeah looking at the reaction you would think I slag off a member of their family and not lightly criticised a piece of entertainment they like.

Read his posts first. He claims somehow the story would be better if a women was involved which quite frankly is moronic. All the male characters rockstar produce are the same which is bullshit too. A shit story could have man or women. Latest tomb raider proved that.

He then decides to quote the one bad review out of 90 as some kind of justification that he was right about the story. Then tries to belittle anyone who responds to him or throws the smilie to show how intelligent he is.

If I wasn’t a fan of previous rockstar games the last thing I would do is post in another rockstar thread about their upcoming game. Rockstar have a forumula that works for them, if it ain’t for you then it ain’t for you. You are a PES fan. Do you post in the fifa thread?

If I have no interest or very little interest in a game, I won’t bother posting in that thread. I’d let people who actually play the game critique it or enjoy it. Not get a hard on because one review out of 90 was a 7.
 
Struggling to get my head around keeping health, stamina, dead eye up, as well my horse's health and stamina, and keeping the camp's supplies up as well. Don't really know what I need to be doing for the camp side of it especially. But then it still feels like I've barely got going even though I'm 4 and a half hours in.

Have some sweet clothes though.

I've read it and don't need you to tell me what to do. As usual you're getting wound up like you're far too invested. Please don't give me a long story on something so irrelevant. It's too, you know, irrelevant. He's not a fan of the series. Big fecking deal.

Wound up? You clearly haven’t read.

If you not a fan of Rockstar games then why are you in a thread that is the latest rockstar game. So do you post in the Fifa thread? If I have no or little interest in stuff, I don’t post in that thread. Is that hard to do?

Apparently responding to silly posts is getting wound up. The only one who is getting wound here is you. First with Jev last week and now again.
 
Finally playable! Gonna play for a couple hours before bed probably then most of the day tomorrow
 
To those who have already got their hands on it and after you’ve had some proper time with it - how does it compare to the first one?

Takes a while to get going. But once you set up your first camp it’s a lot similar. A lot of stuff to do like bounty hunting and hunting. So I’m trying to do the side quests rather than straight to main missions.

Coming into a thread spouting questionable opinions stemming from a shitty source with a well-established history of bias seems like an agenda to me, as does incessantly banging on about one topic for an extended period. It's not how people debate, so again, this has nothing to do with the game itself. I don't give a feck whether or not someone likes a game, nor does anyone else. I haven't even played this game yet, as excited as I am to eventually try it.

Not read. Not read. Not read. You have nothing else to say. Boring retorts.

Oh that's interesting. Only enter a thread about A if you like A. That would make for terrific threads because every thread should be full of fanbois. Not that I agree with the poster in question, but he's entitled to enter any thread he wishes to and express whatever opinion he wishes to express. Its entirely possible that he isn't a fan of something but desires to express a view on it. That this opinion hurts you is of no relevance.

Moving on from this incredibly sensitive conversation, I hope my copy reaches early tomorrow. Would be great to play this on a Saturday.

You clearly give a feck. Because you're making a big fuss about someone not being a fan of a developer/series. Who cares? That questionable source exists. The poster and his opinion exists. If he has 'agenda' I'm sure many others do too. How does anyone explain GTA IV getting a 10/10 from IGN? No bias there? Ban IGN?

Like I said, it's just a game. A lot of us will thoroughly enjoy it. Some won't. That's life.

Thanks. My sister whose a video games buff couldn’t quite get into the first one so I’m not sure if she would be into this. Looks so damn beautiful though - might just get it for myself.
