[4K] The Beauty of Red Dead Redemption 2 - Vol. 2 (Graphics Showcase)

This is an incredible representation of why this game is so impressive. The music fits perfectly, too.

God i just started playing RDR2 again and have loved just riding my horse to the middle of nowhere and admiring the view and the sounds of the wilderness What a gorgeous game

[@levipeterken4020]

The best. Cried at the end.

[@BreaktimeBrian]

This is actually the main thing that's kept me from completing the game😭

[@defendthehouse]

I decided to do something a bit different this time for format and went with classic western widescreen (ultrawide) format!

[@sangrino7166]

DefendTheHouse Loving it!

[@Mokey]

Thumbs up for doing that instead of adding black bars

[@ipwnzzx]

Good choice!

[@stug77]

DefendTheHouse, could you make a higher bit rate version available? Maybe through a cloud drive or torrent? I feel like I'm missing out with youtubes aggressive compression. :)

[@danielbronski4210]

[@eeehmmwhat2406]

Even in 4 years people will compare this masterpiece with other games. Rockstar games has always been ahead of its time.

[@BB-in8yz]

Even in 20 years. It is a bar that was set too high for open worlds. Truly another life and more than just a game.

[@huzzzer6083]

Can't wait to see what GTA 6 will look like. It will be AT LEAST this amazing.

[@singingcat02]

@@huzzzer6083Probably not. RDR2 was in development for over 8 years and took them such an effort that, for the very sake of the development team, it will probably never be done again. GTA VI will undoubtedly be really good, but I don’t think you should expect RDR2-level detail and open world, because it’s just too much to reproduce.

[@EXPLORER-hq1us]

​@@singingcat02gta vi will be better 😤😤

[@MoustacheCacheStash000]

⁠@@singingcat02I genuinely think GTA Vi will absolutely be better. For one, they are directly building on pre existing milestones achieved in RDR2, and even using an upgraded engine on the game. Don’t get me wrong, no game imo has come close to how advanced rdr2 is but I genuinely believe due to the leaks, updates, and just how well rockstar games stand the test of time that gta vi will be high level. Don’t forget GTA V came out since 2013 yet is still compared to modern games. Rockstar is cooking.

[@holeindanssock156]

What an insane *leap* in graphics we have accomplished. GTA 3 wasn't so long ago. Put GTA 3 up against this and its like "da fuq?"

[@DxBlack]

Yes, it actually was that long ago. GTA 3 (1999) San An (2004) 4 (2008) 5 (2014) Red Dead 2...2018. That's 20 years. Cars in the 1900's transformed faster than our graphics tech...

[@left4704]

[@J4MMY13]

RDR2 is one of the most beautiful games I've played and I'm so happy that Rockstar put a camera in the game so you can capture some really good photos ☺️

[@ethanfrederiksen4327]

And now there's the photo mode too, in offline. I kid you not, it actually brought tears to my eyes, the first time I used it. Everything freezes, and you're free to explore. The amount of detail and LIFE in this game, is unbelievable. It seriously feels like travelling 121 years back in time. It made me feel so privileged and greatful, to be living in a time, where such an experience is possible.

[@theghxst7137]

@@ethanfrederiksen4327 the most visually stunning video game ever created, and my favorite story in all of fiction, games like this are truly the definition of “one of a kind”

[@II_XenLEGACY]

3:11 - That shot is super photorealistic. Holy shit.

[@Johnny-ue6hg]

Sometimes i just take a walk in night and look at the Stars

[@Notolderthanyou]

This game just feels so alive. You can see birds in the distance, dust storms, lightning and rain, wind and dust. If you pass by someone they will greet you. Even in the strangest places there is an ocasional person riding their horse or camping for the night. And sometimes you just feel completely alone. That’s the beauty of red dead redemption 2. The artificial loneliness and the artificial “aliveness” of the game. Rockstar is really the best at making games with a population that interacts with you and doesn’t just react or say something when you run them over or shoot them.

[@BreaktimeBrian]

Even in GTA V, some NPC actually talk with each other/ may randomly stop and start telling you some wild story about themselves🤣

[@marsstarlink3235]

Oh the amazement we're in for once whenever GTA 6 is revealed.

[@chrisvela4860]

Wherever the game takes place I hope we have other bones as well

[@Dagger_323]

GTA 6 won't have the splendor of Red Dead though, despite likely having even better overall visuals. Cityscapes aren't as visually stunning as a wide open rural environment, and only Red Dead can exhibit that given that the setting of both franchises is polar opposite.

[@way2muchNFO]

that was the most beautiful video ive seen on here it just effected me, so deep thank you

[@snekie]

I fuckin love this. One question though, how did you manage to record that? Is there a hidden photo mode in the game?

[@holeindanssock156]

Mods more than likely.

[@Dong]

There is a 21:9 ultrawide screen setting only for pc

[@defendthehouse]

I use an ultrawide monitor, so that made the format easy to get. As for the free camera stuff, yeah mods. There's stuff for flying around, so I can fly around in first person, and then there's also a few mods that allow the photo mode to be unpaused. The modding community is doing great work. I even turned into an eagle for one shot!

Imagine being on the programming team. They send you out into the wilderness of the SouthWest and basically go on vacation for free so you can get "inspired" by the beauty of the nature out there.

[@Surrepio]

Goosebumps. You are an artist

[@goivimc]

Masterpiece

[@kylenki]

It's 2022, and RDR2 is still the most beautiful game I have ever played. Not just the scenery, either. Best writing of any RPG I have ever played, too. Most attached to a character I've ever been. All-around, this may be the best RPG or game I've ever played.

Even still in 2021.

[@AdamSmith-vj5uk]

God this game is stupidly pretty

[@maxpayne69.]

Please make Volume 3 with Vestigia Mod - it’s an insane mod that adds many more layers of realism to the already great graphics such as ground/player level clouds (not just fog) in hilly areas. “All timecycles completely overhauled to create more lifelike weather conditions (regional/ground fog, low clouds, more realistic rain, snow and dust storms, etc.)” ❤
