MAP TOUR FROM THE AIR | Red Dead Redemption 2

[@voldlifilm]

"Where the heck is Strawberry" is the most accurate description of West Elizabeth.

[@TexasNova]

Some reason I always had a soft spot for Strawberry. If I had a place to live in RDR2 it would be this town.

[@KlowIsHere]

​@@TexasNovaThe view from the hotel balcony at night is absolutely gorgeous!

[@TonyStark-yl9wv]

If I could make Red Dead Redemption 3, I would make the main character buy a mansion in Saint Denis and have a holiday home in Strawberry. They should als include Mexico and a snowy town in the next game

[@Tsudkyk]

I really appreciate how slow this game is. I have never traveled by foot in GTA v, I’m always choosing the fastest route and vehicle to get to my destination. RDR2 gives the player reasons to explore every shack, check every drawer and go off the beaten path. Whether is foraging, hunting, fishing, looting, gang shootouts, stranger missions or simply exploring the landscapes. I’m really hoping rockstar continues this franchise and continue making a game where the player is encouraged to seek out every inch of their beautiful maps.

[@I_Shit_on_your_shit_point]

Finding 7 cents in a drawer is not a reason to check every drawer. In fact, finding ‘nothing’ made me loathe the cumbersome process to the point i stopped doing it.

[@squirrelsinjacket1804]

GTA 6 is gonna look great

[@Vvopat96]

That's a good example why too much fast travel is bad and going too fast is too. You wanna make a player to enjoy the experience too, gta also does this well with good handling cars, they are fun to drive but horse makes it even better as the map doesn't need to be big to feel big. Like first 30h it felt like the map never stops. Also smart decision to add fast travel later as you don't want to ride the same journey 50th time but first time, 3rd time, you shouldn't have fast travel, it's better without. (pss.. they also said they will continue if the game made profit and I think it did, it was expensive as rockstar games are, you need really good sales every time)

[@draviswubs]

GTA V is pretty cool when you do walk around though. Turn off the mini map in GTA, you'll have a lot more fun

[@squirrelsinjacket1804]

@@Vvopat96 RDR2 is an example of a perfect way to implement fast travel that makes sense in the story. The time of day changes. Even if you want to autopilot to the destination instead to take a break for a bit you can do that too in the cinematic mode.

[@Redemption7825]

So well said! I felt the same way. A trip down memory lane.

[@orderofrecluse]

The only thing they missed on this game was having more to do in Amberino. Beautiful mountains and snow. There could have been a small village with a general store and saloon there.

[@abbi-ss1649]

yes!

[@bearcat.]

In my opinion, I think amberino is perfect as it is, an escape from the towns and cites, where nobody is bothering you.

[@orderofrecluse]

@@bearcat. I guess that's you. It was my perfect place to farm bounty hunter loot. To each their own. Could have been one small shack and a few cabins.

[@Violeto777]

They could have actually made tempest rim apart of the map and made a town there

[@adrock_sokolov6570]

@@bearcat.still wish they went the royal gorge route and added a massive tram and obviously the famous colorado railroad famous gorge/ once an amusement park before the fire and bridge collapse. Just saying, red rock, cool blue waters, colorado canyon city, minecraft storymode netflix edition, it could look a bit more… real. Honestly, they should work more on nebraska and our unique super flatland

[@tkrs675]

Nice video, I really enjoyed that. I can't quite get my head around how small the towns and Saint Denis look from the air. I think being immersed in the world and the fact there was just so much to do in it made them feel so much larger in game. The detail and density of the wilderness is incredible and some of the shots and locations look so realistic, its amazing. Truly one of the best games ever made.

[@erickdub5977]

Crazy that it’s a solid 20-30 minutes traversing by horse from one end of the map to the other. Such a dense game, even after 6 years I can’t help but always stop when I see a random encounter, or hear a funny discussion from the locals. I love roleplaying and setting off, nothing but my horse and rifle and hunting my dinner. Or staying in a hotel and taking a hot bath, eating from whatever they have in the menu then a few whiskeys or beers and heading back out into the wilderness.

[@carlosangui7490]

short and virtualy uncontrolable, what a pity... best game ever, either way

[@dinozone7373]

This tour really shows how brilliantly Rockstar uses sightlines and the terrain to make the map seem even bigger then it really is. It's clear they've extensively playtested to make sure that you can't see the snowcapped mountains of Ambarino from Roanoke Ridge, or the bayous of Lemoyne from the Heartlands. In many games, mashing together such disparate environments like swamps and deserts gives the map a disjointed or unrealistic feeling, but RDR2 somehow avoids this problem.

[@Sebtuseb_el_zorro_con_traje]

i got the same camera mod and i was amazed how small the map really is

[@anthonybastos1040]

No is small. This mods run 200 MPH. And for you cross map WITH HORSE is 30 minute +

[@greypossum1]

I watched this at half-speed and was able to fully appreciate this spectacle even more. Strangely, I kept feeling, "I've been to that spot".

[@derekcoaker6579]

I haven't played RDR2 since a couple months after Launch, but kept muttering, "Oh yeah, I remember that" lol

[@chutneybucket5622]

The beginning of the video makes me think, remember when you could see Grand Teton in Wyoming all the way from New Orleans?

[@SixTheArctos]

This is really nice! I spend so much time in Rdr2 and know how beautiful it is, but to see it from an aerial view is awesome.

[@kingbrenty]

I feel like a just took a tour of my childhood home town. The music in particular really does spark some deep feelings of nostalgia

[@kiley37g]

You missed the whole area of The Three Sisters, O’Creagh’s Run, and the northern part of Grizzlies East where The Loft and Fairytale Shanty is... it’s so beautiful up there. Also, the gorgeous area of Big Vallley where Little Creek River runs through, up by Pronghorn Ranch. You also missed all of Tall Trees, which is where Manzanita Post is. The spot you thought might be it was actually Beecher’s Hope, which is located in The Great Plains.

[@KatzenwagenTV]

this was a time when youtube's algorithm tended to 'punish' my channel if I make videos longer than 15 mins and the viewers dropped off halfway through the video, so I had to make this tour short (less than 15 mins) and trying to cover the entire map within that timeframe (as seen with the route with the map overview at the start of the video) recently, the algorithm seems to have changed again, no longer punishing me for long videos even if viewers left halfway, so I might make a new and slightly longer video with more landmarks covered (and indicated more accurately next time coz I made some mistakes here) 😄

[@Maliers]

​@@KatzenwagenTV not technically a mistake but that burned town is limpany. And if It helps during a playthrough there's a gold bar there

[@BoyNamedTim]

the fact that this is all fully traversable is nothing short awesome! I think you could show this to the most hardened or ignorant video game cynic, tell them they can walk across this in first person view, and they'd be pretty intrigued.

[@KOVAC966]

Never realized how small it is yet it feels so gigantic

[@anthonybastos1040]

[@elliaka6196]

because the only official fast mode to reach places is by horse or trains, the journey takes a lot longer than with a modern airplane, that's why the map feels so much bigger than it is.

Thank you for the kind and fun comment, my friend! I've been receiving a handful of rude comments mocking the mistakes I made when pointing out certain locations. Admittedly, even now I am still new to RDR2, but I did my best (spending up to 10 minutes) per each point of interest and trying to track their location in the game map. Sadly, I still made mistakes, and other people mocked me for it. But nice comments like yours have successfully neutralized the bad vibes given by the rude commenters. So, thank you and bless you, friend! :)

[@yitivitzen5239]

I like turning off the compass when in free mode. I like to see if I can figure out where I am when it new territory. After player for 4 years, I found meteor crater for the first time. People make videos finding things I still had not yet found, and I've played this game for 500+ hours. This is what an open world feels like. It is limited, but in its limit there is a whole world to explore.

Rockstar should have included the ability to ride steam boats. that Lanachase River is begging to have a tour. according to all information about this game, the cut content with regards to Guarma is HUGE. Guarma was supposed to be a bug explorable island that could be revisited and the island had many unique missions, stranger encounters, shops, items, clothes and weapons. for example a pirate outfit. unfortunately all of that was removed but you can still find some of these items on the main map. like for example the pirate hat and pirate sword. and mods in thhis game on PC allow you to unlock the pirate outfit and many ither things. Rockstar could in fact update thr whole game with ahuge patch and transfer all the unique clothes and items that are online to the base single player campaign. who knows. maybe they will do it in the near future. maybe for the 10th anniversary of the game. all thsie unique online outfits and clothes that are in RDR Obline should be in the single player mode. and the Navy Revolver.

I enjoyed seeing this! So, from the head movement, I assume that basically, you made the player character 10x taller and switched to first person? (I have no real knowledge about the mods and the PC version). I would have liked to see the framing looking down a bit, a little less sky, you know? Also, pity we didn't see guarma, I think it is accessible south of that unmapped landmass Either way, cool! Interesting to see that nice weather throughout, it was either forced or it struggled to keep up with the player movement! Post effects to each area were also easier to notice :) great work!
